blaming that for now to make myself feel better xOooh I am new to this thread and just catching up. I had the implant put in a few months ago and that is around the time I started gaining loads of weight again....I didn't connect the dots.
I thought park run was just for runners but after reading this thread I think I'm going to give it a go
parkrun is definitely for everyone!!I thought park run was just for runners but after reading this thread I think I'm going to give it a go
not being an angel 
finally seeing some progress after feeling like nothing was happening for a whileThat's amazing progress! Well done!Down to 12st 8lbs now - started at 15st in December.
I've been just walking alot trying to go everyday and using some pinch of nom recepies, just generally trying to eat better not nessesarily calorie counting or anything. Although yesterday I made a cheesecake out of boredom and have had about 3 slices of it so
Hubby said I looked skinny today so
I have a bad back too, and the extra weight is not helping.I'm sorry I don't have any advice but I feel like a lot of us can relate to this situationI think I’ve posted in this thread before but never actually stuck with it. Feeling so down on myself and my weight at the moment. I’m 98kg and should be under 85kg to be in the healthy weight range for my height (I’m tall). My clothes don’t fit and I feel self conscious all the time, I took my 7 year old for a walk today and I was puffing up the hills even though I exercise consistently, I think it must be because I’m carrying all this extra weight. When he was 2 years old I’d gotten down to 82kgs which was my pre-pregnancy weight and it was perfect, I was feeling great. In the last 5 years I’ve fluctuated mostly between about 88 and 98kgs, and never got back down to that weight
Does anyone else have a real problem with eating well, but no issues at all with doing regular exercise? I regularly go to the gym at 5:30am which I enjoy, I do a decent workout (either a 40 minute cardio circuit that I made up that burns a lot of calories, or a 1.5 hour weights session). I also like walking, I’d consider myself pretty active in that sense. I also have a job at the moment that involves a decent amount of movement (8000 steps usually from 9-5 without trying). But I’m still so overweight, because I just can’t get my act together with food. I know what to eat to lose weight, I just can’t ever stick to it. I enjoy pretty healthy meals, but I binge a lot in very high quantities on sweets, and high calorie desserts, and occasionally things like chips and cheese. I just feel so crappy
but touch wood, so far so good! Just need to get back on track with food shopping and progress will be made again. My other half is doing my head in, always whingeing about doing it, but preparation is everything!! We’ll be four months out from our wedding next week so hopefully the thought of fittings will focus the mind

I can Deffo relate. All I can say is when I'm thinking about having a takeaway or a dessert/snacking whatever I just think would I rather have this food now or be skinny and feel comfortable in clothes/on the beach etc? And I always think to the next day when I know I would wake up feeling like tit due to falling off the diet wagonI think I’ve posted in this thread before but never actually stuck with it.

i feel this too! I have a banana & teaspoon of peanut butter and head to the gym, I spend a couple of hours at the gym, come home and have a protein shake (with oat milk) and then I’m done for a few hours.
Yes absolutely! I know they say "you can't outrun a bad diet" but I think exercise goes hand in hand for a healthy lifestyle. I restarted at the gym last week after two years and two pregnancies, I am so ready to feel the burn.
