Hey everyone, currently trying to lose weight. I am over weight and need to lose it. My dad just died of a heart attack a few months ago and I really need to get going. Been struggling with weight for years. I am on Weight Watchers and it works if you follow it, sometimes I just cave and over do it and it slows my progress! I need help, advice and support! :)

Hello!
Sorry to here about your dad.
I am new too. I am trying to get started on some sort of weight loss program but I can't seem to find the motivation. I don't really have any advice for you but if you need support I'm here. Good luck!

Weight watchers is really hard. I couldn't bare to count things, I convinced myself I wasn't getting enough food and ended up binging. Now I just try to eat healthy and walk a lot.
Good luck though, for some people it's perfect! And good for you for making this change in your life. Both of my parents lost the weight of a person each! They say they feel 1000000000000 times better now. Good luck!

Hey, I'm a newbie too - there are a few of us this week so you are in good company.
I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. To lose a person so close to you must be terrible. It's great that you have decided to turn your life around and make something positive out of a bad situation. That's really brave.
I tried weight watchers but the counting made me insane!
We're all here to support you so...welcome! See you around....

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
