New and looking for MFP pals

Hi. I started a few days ago and really just want to introduce myself. I'm a 36 year old mother of 3 living in the uk and over 15 years of marriage n kids I have steadily put on almost 5 stones. This is now starting to affect my health (knees aching, pre diabetes, tired after doing small amount of work) and with my youngest going into full time education in September I am now ready to prioritise myself and start leading a healthier lifestyle.

I want to lose about 50 lbs initially and then set a target goal that is easily maintainable rather than worry about being in the healthy range.(need to lose 70lb for that).

I am looking for friends to keep me motivated and accountable on my journey to a healthier lifestyle!
