Hi All, my names James and I am wanting to lose 48lbs altogether.
I have 2 small children and I am embarrassed how exhausted I get chasing them round. I want to be able to play with them properly.
How are you all? :-) x

Hi James,
That is great, good luck! I'm sure you'll need plenty of energy playing with 2 small kids!
I've just started my diet, and feeling good!

Hi James
Welcome to MFP! Kids are so tiring, it just seems to be non-stop on the go, but they're also a great way of exercising lol as you lose the weight you'll be able to run around after them much more easily and that is a brilliant motivational tool!
Good luck on your weight loss journey, you've made a fantastic first step towards shedding them extra lbs and i'm sure you'll be fitter in not time))

Good luck James. Just stick with it and keep grinding. It's actually not that hard to do once you start seeing the pounds come off.0
