Hiya, I can totally understand your frustration. I've been overweight myself for some time and trying to get back to my old size and shape is near on impossible. I've tried a few diets but nothing seems to have made a lot of difference, I'm willing to give anything a go at the minute. i find exercise tough to stick to although I've recently started swimming at weekends with my sister and nephew. I know what you mean about gym membership being expensive, but even if it wasn't i don't know how often I'd go, i hate getting all sweaty and i'm usually sweating within the first 5 minutes! That's why I'm hoping to stick to swimming, although it's taking me a while to feel comfortable in front of other people.
