In march I went to the doctors for my nearly 50 check up - bit of a shock really - 2 stone overweight BMI 25.5 and high blood pressure for the first time in my life I needed to lose weight, I know 2 stone is not much compared to some people but for me it felt like a mountain to climb, never had to watch what I eat so I didn't have a clue.
Joined MFP and spent some money on a home gym got a fitbit flex and at 12 stone 8 began my journey.
Through this site I picked up all the info I needed - today 10 stone 5 BMI 21 and blood pressure 120 over 80. Never felt better - now I need to maintain can't really afford to lose much more at 5 foot 8
Thanks for all the clever people who take the time to advise us - I will now be searching for advice on maintenance .
Good luck on your personal battles
