Hi everyone!
My name's Katie, and I've made the decision today to lose the extra weight I've been carrying for as long as I can remember! I've always been overweight, but I gained a lot more a few years ago when I broke my knees and hip and wasn't able to get around at all. Then last year, I lost 4 and a half stone by joining the gym, but earlier this year my knees got worse and I was laid up again, so I've put a bit back on again - not much, but enough for me to think it's time to get back on track!
I've had the app on my phone for a while now but thought the moral support of the forum would help me to keep in control of it!
I'm 23 years old, currently 214lbs and I'd like to get down to the 170lb mark - but I'm starting low. First goal - 200lbs!
So hello! *waves*
