hi Patti
when I arrived here weight loss was the only thing on my mind. I didnt know about the other things so I have really learned a lot!

one of the most important thing I found out was that the process of weight loss starts - right from step one. So I found that the best gift to yourself is to think, experience, share, live step one

I gained weight for a while - to the end of step 3, then I steadied. I think this experience taught me how to maintain my weight instead of living with the yo-yo. That was a first - so useful!

For a while I was happy just to coast, but now Ive lost all that gained weight and about half a stone more and am tackling the rest in Your Last Diet.

I like the wednesday chats. the best thing is that I dont obsess about it any more. It was really hard trying to lose weight all my life with my biochemistry in a turmoil.

you have achieved such a lot in your life - and also, your experience with OA etc is not wasted ( as it says in YLD) you know what hasn't worked so well so far - how do you feel about having breakfast with us?

love to hear what thoughts you have on breakfast. Did you have breakfast today?
