Hi there,
This is day 1 of taking my life back. My weight has gone up with the diagnosis of Meniere's disease/bulging disks in my back/arthritis. My usual saying is find a pretty field and put me down. Now my saying is that this isn't going to beat me and define the life I have. I WANT MY LIFE BACK. 2 years ago I was swimming 2km a day and then doing an aquafit class. Now I can barely walk down my street.
I am looking for friends on here to help me stay on track.
Here is a little bit of info so you can decide if you want to add.

I love photography/crafting/my family.
I hope you will add me and look forward to seeing less off you (losing weight ... get it?).
