Hi, I found this forum last night and plucked up the courage to join today!
I'm 30 years old and have been dieting on and off since I was 7, although the sad thing is I don't think I've ever been that overweight - I just never thought I was slim enough. My dad was always on at my mum to lose weight, but she wasn't that big either!
Years of dieting mean I do now have a problem with eating. I'm either 'on' a diet or 'off' a diet and if I'm 'off' a diet then I'm bingeing. I have so many books on how to lose weight it's scary (Out of curiosity I've just counted them and there's 20! oh plus one on its way from Amazon - this one will hold all the answers! lol).
After having my 3 children I joined Slimming World and lost 2 stone, which got me down to 11 st 1, my goal weight was 10 st 12 - which I never made. For some reason I started bingeing first on Slimming World 'free' food and then on 'naughty' food! I have gradually crept back up to 12 st 7. I am so disappointed in myself but I still can't stop eating all the time. I know I don't have alot to lose but my head is absolutely done in! I don't know what plan to stick to and I think I have started my diet 6 times already this month!
Sorry to go on a bit but I would be interested to know if there's anyone else out there like me - not alot of weight to lose but can't seem to do it. I'm driving myself crazy not to mention my other half! I'm sure he'll be delighted I've found this forum to rant on!
