Dear Marie
Can I suggest you break this task down into easier stages by aiming to
lose 1lb in 2 weeks and call it a lifestyle change? It's ok to fail.
We are only human. I put on a few pounds over Christmas, but hey,
doesn't everyone?
My best action to help is getting a wii . There are exercises u can do
sitting down Mrs Dragon, such as cycling with your arms.
Where there is a will, there is a way. And another point, a cube of
cheese is not good to be seen as a reward or treat, but an apple is !!
Good luck girls. Stay happy, stay on course and let's stay in touch xx
