Hi there,
I've posted on a couple of threads but didn't introduce myself so apologies for that! I'm 40 years old, married with 3 kids. I work part-time and I'm 310 lbs.
I have been overweight all my life. I have tried everything and even managed to lose 80lbs with WW a few years ago but put it back on over the years. I have recently taken up cycling (ie in the last few months) and am so happy that I have finally found an exercise that I enjoy. I have tried lighterlife type diets, ww (repeatedly) and so on. But could never 'get into' exercise.
I feel something has finally clicked with me and I am determined beyond belief to do this now.
I am hoping to lose 100lbs.
Watch this space.
