Tried so many diets...

and I can never stick to them - weight watchers/slimming world/rosemary conley etc. I weigh what I did when I found out I was pregnant - 13 stones 10 pounds. But I was already a stone over what I had been stuck at for 3-4 years. I'd love just to lose a stone to start with so that all my clothes fit me properly. In my last year at uni in 2005 I was 10 1/2 stones - I've gained 3 stone over since then and it depresses me.

I don;t want to diet - I just want to follow a low fat plan and maybe when I go out for meals eat what I want. I'm sick of dieting but I don;t know how to eat normally. I used to boredom eat - that was my problem so I thought when the baby came I'd lose it easily but I've actually gained 2 pounds this week despite eating low fat and not eating choc or anything.

Anybody else feel the same way?

I was a bit like that at first. But I really need to knuckle down. I knew deep down that nothing was going to work unless I made it work so I waited until the time was right instead of rushing, I enjoyed nearly two weeks of just eating what I wanted and once my nephew's Christening was done I knew it was time. I had had the party, the drink and all that gorgeous food and cake and I signed up online to do Weight Watchers, I am only 3 days in but I feel good and I feel confident because I took my time and I made sure I was 100% ready. I did my food shop and got lots of WW treats and meals and now I feel good, I feel confident that I can go ahead and do this..

I have signed up to weight watchers online but am now thinking slimming world would be better as you don;t have to weigh as much stuff. Making it to a class will be too difficult with LO only being 6 wks old and he doesn;t have a regular pattern yet. But the s/w online package is twice as much as weight watchers. I think I have made the decision though to give s/w a try at home - my friend goes to a s/w class so I am going to try for a month at home and then hopefully he'll be more settled and I will be able to take him along. I am also considering asking the inlaws to baby sit so i can go swimming - I am worried about that though as my scar still hurts.
