Hi everyone,

Joined this website by recommendation from my sister kellybelly80 who's not long joined. I haven't really joined the website to lose weight as such but getting into better shape and for a healthier life is my reason.

I battled to lose weight after having my daughter nearly 7 years ago and was stuck with the baby belly for well over a year before I got myself checked out at the drs to find that I had thyroid problems. Once this was corrected by medication which i'm now on for life, I slowly started to lose the weight, I still struggled with the weight and was stuck at 11st for many months then shifted a few lbs and managed to get down to 10st 4lbs. This weight stayed with me until I fell pregnant with my son who's now 2. Again my thyroid got worse so medication was put up. This time I was determined to shift the baby weight sooner and really worked so hard, eating well and exercising often and i'm now happily at 8st 5lb.

Although I lost weight by all natural sources I do feel that I may have deprived my body of vital vitamins and minerals as I now experience problems with my stomach and don't feel as healthy I as should or could. For me losing weight wasn't to bad, I do have very good will power but on the other hand I didn't think about all the vitals that were being lost at the time of weight loss.

So i'm hoping that people will be able to help me get myself back on track to healthier living x
