I'm 51, have struggled with my weight all my life & will probably do so for the rest of it. I hope you've managed to put this weight thing into perspective since you made the programme - don't let it take over your life.

Claire, you're not alone in how you feel, I used to train ridiculous hours so I could eat what I wanted & still didn't have the body I wanted! Good luck & if you find the cure let us all know!

I am currently going through a divorce and although I have always struggled with my weight, recently it has spiralled out of control, I feel like an emotional food addict. I am finding it hard to combat this but watching your show has shown me that I do have a problem and it has to be addressed sooner rather than later as I am putting my life at risk. I want to live a normal, happy life with my family and not have to constantly battle with my weight and what I look or feel like. I feel life would be so much easier and simpler if food, my weight/image was not so important. I need to find the things about me that others love and learn to love them too I guess. Thanks again for being part of such a good show.

Your story really inspired me to do something about my fluctuating weight, but also not be so hung up about it and realise it doesn't make me a bad person. I wish there were more programs, but thankfully I have recorded them so can dip in and out when I need inspriration! Thanks Claire, and good luck x Nice to see so many positive people on here.
