Looking to get back into my jeans!

Hey, I'm Liz and just starting on my weight loss and tone up journey. I'm 5' tall and currently 10st 6 wearing a size 12-14 and hoping to get down to around 8st 2 wearing size 8-10 which is what I was 2yrs ago before my dad became ill and passed away. Joined a gym and going to have to get over my hatred of exercise lol. Hoping to make some new friends on here to help me on my way :) hoping to lose 7-14lbs by my birthday mid December :) anyone who sees this feel free to add me so we can help support and motivate each other!
