Hi all

Came across this app after a friend mentioned it on facebook. I'm hoping to lose 40lbs I'm not a yoyo dieter this will be the first time I've been on a diet. My weight has increased steadily from the age of 21 after having my first daughter I'm now 33 and my youngest child is 8 months old. I'm currently on maternity leave after intially losing my pregnancy weight within a month I have put on another 8lbs!

Really enjoying the app and feel like it's really helping me, i've also started walking a lot more but I think that's down to the lovely weather the UK is having at the moment.

Wishing everyone luck at achieving their goals.

Rachael
