O.k. Who's Overweight?

[Tilly2]

Do you need to lose some weight? Be honest.

I need to lose six pounds to get back to my 'day I got married weight' which was 9st 3lb, 34 years ago.

I even threw some out to the birds today Dt to try to use them up ...... poor things need them more than we do.

I am lucky, don't need to lose any weight.

well according to 'charts' at 5'4'' and 12 stone I am between 2 stone and 4 stone over weight. I have a very active lifestyle, doing around 2 hours hard physical work per day (farm work and horseriding around 4 -6 miles per day fast and competing endurance riding up to 40kilometers). I am size 10 -12 jeans and 14 tops so the whole thing is ludicrous as is stopping drinking and eating food you like. After years and years of being bothered about being under 10 stone , once I hit 50 I no longer gave a damn -its great!!

ha ha i may be :-)

I am heavier than I have ever been.... but I am also happier in my own skin... but something has changed for the better maybe because I no longer feel guilty about eating and because I am in a better place emotionally I am eating less and only til I am full...

Morning all,

For those that don't know, we offer all kinds of support over here: http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Body-and-Soul/Weight-Loss-and-Dieting/ - and there's a slimming world weigh-in club made sticky.

It's well worth asking questions in there when you're feel unsure or lost when trying to lose :)
