edited September 2024 in Introduce Yourself
:wink: Hey all, just wanted to finally introduce myself. I'm Lamyar, age 28, from essex. I have two sons and twin daughters. I have ballooned from a normal size 14, to a size 20, and have decided it has to go. Calorie counting works for and always has, so here i am. I registered here a week ago, and started boxing on a monday and kick boxing on a tuesday, and start the gym next week too. I have lost nearly 6 pounds in a week, which i feel for me is a very big achievement, just hoping i can keep them this big.lol. Your help and tips would be good for me, as i am normally the type of person who sees food and eats, even the kids left overs,hehe.
