I am a fatty

and 99% happy, but that will soon change.
Went to "river island" to buy some jeans, but I refuse to buy
the size I needed!!!

I cant blame it on having children anymore and I actually feel sorry
for my body in having to drag this ass around for much longer!!

Just get a realistic mental picture of what you want to look like, set some goals, and off you go!

my mind whether it will be slimming world or weight watchers.

I did get a leaflet pushed thru my door for weightwatchers, maybe thats a hint?

You will have to share your weightloss story?

but I can vouch for Weight Watchers. I lost nearly 40 pounds over 15 years ago and have been maintaining my weight loss ever since. I believe in WW so much that I now work part time for them as a leader.

Which ever you choose, good luck.

I don't beat myself up about it, but I'm not super happy about it either. I know that I just need to exercise more. When will I do that? Umm... next year, maybe?

Weight watchers might help you lose some weight, but only because it's about eating less. Really, it's not complicated to lose weight; burn more calories than you consume. I just have to get back to doing that.

They promise people magic bullets and pills that will make you look like a supermodel in 2 weeks, they sell you gym memberships that you only use for 2 weeks then pay for six more months until you give it up...the whole process just disgusts me!
