I've just joined this forum today so not sure how it all works yet but here goes... I'm 35 years old and have been overweight my whole life. I had a really great time in uni and after that I put on about 4 stone in the space of two years (which is my entire fault). But when I got into a new relationship with a man who was perfect for me, I lost the weight again! I felt great and happy and he made me feel very loved. A few months ago though we ended up parting ways - it wasn't his fault at all but that's another story. Since then I've put back on about 3 stone because of my new car and job which requires me to be in the office for longer hours. My hormonal issues have also started coming back as a result and I haven't had a period in over three months, so it looks like I may have PCOS or endo (or perimenopause). So, I'm starting out on my weightloss journey again - but this time it's not because of a man. This is for me. My mum is also overweight and my dad was as well until recently when he started losing a lot of weight due to the health issues that come with being an older person. I want to live a long life so I can be there for my parents, which means I need to get healthy now. I'm on day 1 of my journey and have already hit the wall because I'm feeling very frustrated right now and also determined at the same time! I'm hoping that by joining this forum I'll find some people who feel as I do and can share their experiences and feelings with me.
I would like to know whether anyone else has had similar issues with hormonal problems? If so, what did you do about it? Any advice is welcome! Thanks
