It's my birthday and the start of my new life. I would love friends, new starters & veterans alike!

It's my birthday today. I've just turned 28. My birthday present to myself is to forgive the past, forgive my flaws and begin my new life. I have arthritis/frozen shoulder on the right side, plantar facilitis in both feet and my hair is falling out, due to what I can only guess is a mixture of several things. I'm 14.8stone which is less than my original 15.1 stone a month ago but I still have a long way to go to reach my goal of 9.7stone, a weight I've not been in a decade.

My family are foodies with junk food in every cupboard and on every counter. I have my troubles but feel well enough to refuse to be a victim of circumstance anymore. So I've taken a career break. This next year I'm working just to live and will be focusing on my health, fitness and relationships instead. I freaking love my boyfriend of nearly 4 years so much that he deserves it just as much as I do, "it" being a healthy me. Soon we'll be moving in together soon and maybe starting a family. I don't want to be bald and infertile, my worst case scenario :<

I've been a lurker forever. Petrified of judgement and petrified of people finding out my shameful weight and habits. But I've been stupid and naive. So here I am in all my glory prepared to show people the nitty gritty of getting bitty.

I will be posting progress pictures at the end of every month beginning in August.


Good luck my partners in crime. Let's get clean!
