Hi all,
I hope this chilly Thursday is treating you all well! I started LT on Mon- this is the 3rd time for me :-( The first time I lost 4 stone in 8 weeks but, as with many others, didn't change my life enough afterwards. My 2nd try was half-hearted and I wasn't in the right mindset at all!
So, I'm 32, 20 stone (gulp!) and now diabetic (a combination of weight and long term steroid use for arthritis). So, for me, this feels like I'm fighting for my life. I've got an incredible husband who loves and supports me but with my blood sugar like it is, there's no way we can try for children. I just want to succeed! I'm so, so tired of failing to lose weight. Trying and failing is just so crushing, isn't it? I feel really emotional tonight...the thought of losing 8 stone is daunting beyond belief. Any support or chats will be appreciated- it's just good to feel like you're not alone.
I'm feeling hungry and weak tonight... I know this works... I'm just struggling.
Good luck to everyone else trying to change their lives!
