Really Overweight!

I do walking 5 times a week.

We are here to support you in any way that we can. Once you set your mind to it you can do anything you want. Just take one day at a time and make the necessary changes. Once you start seeing results you will be motivated to keep going. You got this!!!

I hit rock bottom over the summer and decided to join the Transformation Challenge. It was the best thing I could have done for myself. I'm starting another challenge today. Can't wait to see what I look like in 6 weeks!

Have a blood test done.

Your not alone on this one. My doctor even told me I was over weigh but it didn't seem like it. Did you know it's hard to notice your own weight before someone else do?

I know the feeling of having those few extra pounds...I'm in the process of drafting my weight loss diet planvas I respond here

I do a lot of walking. That'll help ward off accumulation of fat. Once a week, I do 24-hour dry fasting too.

You can eat what you want, you can eat as often as you want, but try to keep your portions very small. That's how I did it, I only lost 22 lbs, but I don't remember in how many months. Yeah, exercise is important as well, but it must be fun. I used to walk in nature and take photos, or I simply went to the mall and gave myself some little treats (beautician or makeup) for my hard work. I've always struggled with weight and diets, held my BMI at around 30. So there was no breaking point for me, I was always attempting to lose weight, but it kept on going up and down. Once I had more time for myself, I understood I couldn't expect a fast loss, that's what I wanted: fast results. So I tried to not care about what the scale said, but only focus on doing the right choices everyday. I haven't gained weight since then, I still could lose more 22 lbs to feel perfect but I'm taking it easy. I'm now healthy, objectively attractive for most people. A story with a good end.

It's never really easy to not over-eat for most of us. Something that works for me (when I listen) is to really pay attention to how I feel while I'm eating. I ask myself do I really still feel hungry or do I just want to keep eating because it tasts good. When I feel full, I try to quit eating right then. But it's still not easy.

I suppose I just suddenly realised that I had a choice as to what I ate which sounds crazy but I can make a decision to eat a lot or a little, have a piece of fruit rather than a muffin and it's my decision. Eat slightly smaller serves and keep making them smaller as you get used to less food, chew slowly so you don't have time for seconds and have a tiny bit of the things you crave. It will satisfy the craving and stop you bingeing later. Good luck.

Yes, I am by doing brisk walking.
