Hey folks! So on Christmas day, I hit my target of being under 10 stone. Yay! My starting weight was 15stone, as of November 2009. I have lost a third of my body weight in that time period, and I have done it by......eating less and moving more! My challenge now is to maintain. I'm giving it another week to settle down, and then presuming all is ok, going to up my calories. I am gonna continue to go to my zumba and kettlercise classes (and now Bokwa!) and in theory eat more! Any help or advice on this would be much appreciated, this is a whole new challenge for me!

I would like to thank all my fabulous MFP friends who are always positive and supportive. Of course any new friends are always welcome!
