Hi all! Well here I am with all good intentions to loose approx 50lbs - OMG seems a mammoth task when I write it down! My weight has crept up following 3 pregnancies resulting in 3 boys. My recent spell in hospital for the second time due to those damn stones has booted me up the derrière! Look forward to making friends! X

Hello!
So nice to meet you. 3 boys, eh? Wow. You have your share of excitement there, don't you? LOL
I only have one son (and he's the only child) and he keeps me busy! LOL
Don't look at the big goal (50lb). Set mini goals to reach on the way to your ultimate one.
If you set mini goals you will find them easier to attain and then each one "checked off" your list will create excitement and encouragement that it CAN be done. It will keep you motivated to keep going,
You can do this!0
