Well thought ld start a diary page to help me with my journey from obese to being a comftable wt.
Have been over wt since about 10yr old when myfather died lm now 51 so along time. Im a text book emotional eater and have eaten when sad happy anxious bored etc. Iv tried allsorts of diets from vlcd to calorie counting and lv early memories of my mother taking me to a slimming club. No one stopped to think of the grief that i may have been suffering ( my father died very suddenly just droped died of a heart attack only 49yr and it was never discussed in front of me). Iwas then widowed at 23 so emotions have played a lg part in my eating journey.
Have been calorie counting now for 3 weeks after fed up of feeling so ill and old everythimg hurting and mood swings due to what i was eating. Have lost 9lb to date and feeling muchbetter in myself. Its taken me over 40 yrs to get to this wt and its not going to come off overnight but want it to stay off for good this time other wise my life/ health is going to be limmited. Sarted at 16.3 and down to 15.8 wt in on wednesdays. Hope you all have a good healthy happy day life is too short to have regrets and we are only here just the once so enjoy! X
