Thanks again for all the replies and encouragement, it really means a lot. Finally stepped on the scales today and I have put on a stone and a half as I suspected, not good but at least it's made me realise I need to get this under control now. I've bought the Jen Unwin Fork in the Road book and am expecting it today so that's the first step at least. Really need to try and get on top of this again, even if it's just little steps for now it's better than nothing. I'll keep posting and let you know how I'm getting on, a huge thanks again, the messages meant a lot to me and lets me think I can do this again.
