Hi there! Looking for friends!

Hi everyone, I am re-joining MFP (I was successful with it 4-5 years ago). The last few years have been very hard for me healthwise, and I have gained a lot of weight (partly due to medications for mental health. I have schizoaffective disorder and am taking the antipsychotic Clozapine (well known for weight gain).

I've been using MFP again for about a week, I started at 120kg (264lbs) and am currently at 114.6kg (252lbs). Ideally, I would like to get down to my pre-Clozapine weight of 70kg (154lbs). I'm about 5'8" in height. I am currently a UK size 18.

Right now, I am doing the Insanity programme with my husband doing it too. I have just finished the first week, and I'm surprised at myself because I actually wake up each morning excited to do the programme.

My other hobbies are: Animals, sewing, art/sketching, taekwondo, photography, music and cinema.

I'd really like to make some friends on MFP that I can have mutual support with, and just to chat about things.
