[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the heaviest I’ve ever been. I need to lose roughly 30lb. I’m motivated to do this, but it’s so much change!

I’m an emotional eater. I’m bored and lonely at night when the kids go to bed. My husband works nights, so when he’s working, I’m alone. Eating is what I look forward to. It’s like I can’t picture my evening after 8:30 without thinking of snacks. I can do great all day, but once the kids are in bed, all rules are out the window.

I’m not looking forward to the gym. I think that routine will be as hard as stopping snacking in the evenings.

Which should I work on first, because I don’t think I can do both successfully.

Should I work on my diet first, then add the gym once I’ve mastered that? Maybe once I’m down 10lb from food alone?

Thinking of also adding walking in. Starting with a daily walk to pick up my kids from school (roughly 20 minutes total), and then maybe adding longer walks, weather permitting. Then, a gym routine.

I don’t even know what the best approach is. I know I won’t succeed at all until I knock out this evening snacking. Help![/quote]

Tell me about it. Same boat. Winter makes me bored and hungry[/quote]
