New and need help

[uglebetty]

Hi, just found this forum and joined straight away. I need help in getting back to my goal weight and fitness level I was at before I got a stress fracture in my foot. My goal weight is 67kg I am at 80.3kg. I have no time limits, but I need to lose something each week or change something each week with my very bad habits. My selfestem and confidence is at a low

Welcome to the Forum!

You should feel good about yourself for deciding to do something about your weight now. Good work!

You have started with some right ideas. No time limits - while it is good to get where you want to go as quick as you can...weight loss is a journey of the mind and many things are uncovered along that journey that may seem like detours but they are the lessons we learn to keep it of permanently. Change something each week - Gradual change is the key to building a healthy lifestyle that lasts. Rome wasn't built in a day nor is a healthy lifestyle. Remember it took years of neglect and bad habits to get us to where we are. That's something that is going to take time to overturn!

Wishing you success in building your better future.
Kim

We are all in this together! This Forum is all about supporting one another. The "normal world" doesn't have much insight about losing weight. How many times have you had a well intention friend just say "all you have to do is eat less and exercise!"...if it was that easy there would be any obese people in the world.

We are here for you - in the good times and the hard.
