Hi, i have already posted in the introductions but thought i would come and introduce myself on here seeing as this is the forum i will be using
My name is Claire and i am 23 years old, i have 2 yound children and am on a mission to be healthy and no longer overweight.
Most of my family and friends are already slim and as nice as they are offering their advice, i dont think anyone whose never suffered from a weight problem really knows how it feels. I have a short story for you just for a bit of background info.
When i was 18 i weighed 130kgs, i did the lighterlife diet and it only took my 6 months to reach my goal weight, my whole life changed and i met the man of my dreams, i fell pregnant quickly and gained most of the weight back. when my son was 22 months old i gave birth to my daughter and suffered from post natel depression, which i managed to eat my way through. The last 2 years haven't been the easiest, i lost one of my best friends in a accident and very recently i split with my fiance, his choice not mine, but it takes to be n a relationship, im heartbroken if im honest and a bit lonely nowadays raising 2 kids by myself. i did however decide that i wasnt going to let this break up be the end of me, i started college just over a month ago and am training to become a chef.
i just want to be healthy for my childrens sake and stop letting food control my life, i want to eat to live not live to eat. i think a website like this is just what i nee to help me because its the support i lack.
so anyway, thankyou for taking the time to read this and i hope to be of some help to people going through the same as me.
much love
