Hi, my name is Debbie, i'm 44, married with 2 teenage children. I have yo yo dieted since I was about 20, have lost 3 or 4 stone each time and then put it all, and more, back on.
I've done CD, SW and WW in the past, together with Rosemary Conley, South Beach.
I gave up dieting about 6 years ago, after serious illness. Since then my weight has crept up to about 17.5 stone (how I hate to admit that!). My DH has been nagging me for about to year to lose weight, for my health, but I just haven't been able to summon the willpower.
This past 6 months I haven't been feeling well at all, I'm full of aches and pains, constantly tired, my feet are very painful, and I know if I mention any of it to my doctor, she'll blame my weight before looking at anything else. My BP is also out of control. So ... excuse me rambling on ... last month I asked my doctor for help in losing weight, and she has prescribed the little blue pills. Tomorrow is my first weigh in, after one month, I have no idea how much I have lost, so may be tears, may be smiles!
This looks like a wonderful site, full of invaluable information, so I'm looking forward to being a member.
