Hi - I'm new to this so hope I'm not stepping on anyones toes.I have become very overweight over the past three years and am really uncomfortable with it. I'm hoping to find other men and women with the same dilema, I know all there is to know about healthy eating and would like to start a local support group with like minded people who want to exercise and encourage others ( can't afford a trainer at the moment ) anyone interested in joining?

Probably you will get lots of pms and this is just to say well done and good luck.

There is a thread on wrightwatchers in the family area of the forum. You might find it helpful. Lots of people post there about their weighing in sessions and, I think, gain from others' support and encouragement. Wishing you all the best going forward.

I wish you the best of luck!


I had a blitz on my weight in the new year, but sadly found when I lost the weight my face just looked more wrinkly :(


Another hideous downside of getting old.


Hope you find some people to do it with you. Keep us in touch with how it's going!

Somerset Maugham said that after 40 a woman had to choose between her face or her body. Today I think we can probably change that to at least 50 but the concept is sadly the same.........

I dunno about this. My mother is in her sixties, doesn't have any wrinkles and not overweight.

    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open. 
    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
    • @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage  
    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
