Introducing myself

My name is Hannah and I've been on here for a few weeks. I'm trying to lose about 78lbs and I've lost about 20 so far (I lost a little before I joined)

I broke my ankle a few years ago and stress ate 40lbs onto myself while I was stuck in a wheelchair and losing my job.
I gained more weight after that, and in combination with my ****ty eating habits resulted in me recently losing my gallbladder.

Since then I've made a lot of changes and I'm already feeling (and looking) much better.

Just thought I'd say hi to everyone?

    Hello....please feel free to add me if you like :)
    I am currently in a wheelchair awaiting my 2nd hip replacement, so I know what it is like to put on weight that way. :)

    Hi Hannah, thanks for the add :) .

    It's great to hear you're living positively after what sounds like quite an ordeal, which I can't personally relate to.

    Now, lets go better ourselves!
