Most of my life(with the exception of before pubity)I have ranged between 8.1/2 and 9.1/2 stone.Until I got breast cancer at 52 & had to come off HRT & stop smoking.Hence I put on 3 stone.I then was diagnosed with osteoarthritis as well,& needed a knee replacement.Thank god I was given the all clear last September for the breast cancer & I am walking well on the new knee.But I have had to retire.Apart from the fact that I am 60, I'm not really fit enough with the arthritis to work as a Florist.The trouble is I hate being fat,it really pulls me down physically & emotionally.I have lots of other problems, financial,family,& healthwise,& I just can't seem to get stuck into a good eating plan,although I know from experience that it would make me feel so much better,being fit.I just can't get my willpower back.I'm normally so strong,when I make up my mind,I do it.I'm now nearly l3 stone,hate looking in the mirror,only food & alcohol seem to cheer me,I sleep a lot, to block it all out.Help!!
