Hi all

Just checking in as I have been using the App only so far so not been on the forums.

I was always active and OK weight wise growing up - did ballet and stuff. Gradually put on weight from my early thirties onwards and especially after having my two boys. i am 41 btw and determined to reach my goals in weight and other things as I apporach 42!

From my heaviest I have lost about 25 lbs now and have around 18 - 20 lbs to go. I'm really getting back into exercising (more than simply yoga though I still love it) and have recently really overhuled all my eating habits further....as well as the weight the change in how I feel physically and emotionally has been amazing.

Hope to get to know some of you better....would be great to add some more friends so I can get inspired to keep going when I use my phone App.

Cheers all

    I too am a fellow Scot :) - just joined so looking forward to some help and encouragement as dieting is new to me! A combination of age creeping up and the particularly bad but terribly tasty Scottish diet doesn't help! Thanks
