Hi everyone,

Ten years ago I was a fitness instructor who weighed 140lbs and was super-fit. Then I got a desk job, a child, a sweet tooth and a bad back :)

Now I'm 175lbs and wanting to lose about 30. I've joined a gym and added the MFP app to my phone - it's excellent and a real help.

I'll be 50 in April 2013 (how can that BE???) and am determined to be in great shape when I get there.

I've been looking through the success stories and you all are incredibly inspiring. It's a pleasure to be here.

Jo
