Hi Everybody, Im new as you can probably tell. I live in Sunny Spain and have spent the last couple of Summers covered up because Im simply too large to wear a bikini!! I weigh about 14 stone, and have always battled with my weight!!Im struggling to buy clothes I like without looking terrible in them, and Ive decided that it all has to stop!!I have come here to help support others so we can all help eachother. Theres nothing worse than when people make comments about your appearance, it really hurts.
 
Welcome to the group Lorenita,
We can all relate to you and most everyone understands how you feel. Im fairly new to the group as well, but I find it to be a fantastic support system.
Michelle :)
 
Lorenita, sorry to hear that people say things to you based on your appearance. That really drives me crazy! Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, and if you don't like what you are looking at it, leave it to someone else who does to say nice things.

How do you plan on starting your weight loss journey?
 
Hi Lorenita,
Welcome to the WLF!

Remember that who you are is not represented by a number on a scale - that is an outward appearance - but NOT who you are. Whether that number is high or low.

Yes, you CAN do something to change that number, and with doing that comes the empowerment of feeling IN charge of your life - but it is not WHO you are - you are SO much more :D

I look forward to getting to know you as you head towards your goals!
 
I started my weight loss programme last week and so far Im doing well. I travel a lot with work and the only things we seem to be able to grab on the go is junk food!!!Im going to London tommorow so that will test my will power.
 
Hi Lorenita,
You can always grab some fruit, a banana, apple, some almonds to snack on!

You might consider creating a journal over in our diary section so that we can get to know you better and you will have a place to record your food/exercise plan along the way.
