Excellent. Obesity is a health problem often with psychological issues contributing. Sufferers shld be sympathetically supported to overcomehttps://twitter.com/hollyroseashe/status/867344956834422784 …

If you have a lot of weight to lose, it can be hard to get motivation to start coz it will take so long to get where you want. Just do it.
-
Imagine if you'd started 6 months ago? I promise you'll feel a bit better in a week, loads better in a month. Set lots of small goals.
-
I don't think 'fat shaming' is the answer but there should be a general consensus that it's a problem & friends shld be encouraged to do it.

Oh dear. I'm not saying weight loss is as easy for ppl whose obesity is caused by an underlying psych issue as it is for ppl without.
-
If you gained a lot of weight due to disability & or meds as I did, & then those stop, of course it's much easier to lose it again.
-
But that just means ppl with obesity related to mental health issues need more specialised support, not that it isn't a problem to be solved

Anyway, I've lost a stone (14lbs) in three weeks by eating healthily & walking a lot & I'm very happy about it.pic.twitter.com/whVJudm7tr

And if anyone wants to talk diets & exercise & weight loss to keep motivated, feel free to tweet me about it. That is all.

Well done Helen. My father has found himself, at 69, literally unable to support his own weight and depressed. Avoidable and heartbreaking.

Over last 3 years I had put on 20kg and wandered into obese range- I'm just a week into getting back and I feel better already.
