Hi from Ireland

I am starting out and am really going to work hard at this. I am a 30 year old married mother of 3 boys one of which is on the autism spectrum. Between his diagnosis, having a 3rd baby and the recession i hit an all time low and ate all around me for 2 years. I gained over 35 pounds. :frown:
However I want to return to the confident sexy energetic woman i used to be. So far I have lost 10 pounds in 4 weeks and about 10 inches all over but i still have over 20 pounds to lose. I am choosing a sensible Wholefood diet which incorporates a sensible low sugar/low fat approach. Lots of nutrients, fibre and goodness. I will exercise when I can and I will be training for a 10k walk which is on in June.
Looking forward to chatting to you all and feel free to add me as a friend

Good Luck. You know you can do it. I like that you say an Irish size 10. Is that different than an American size 10?0
