Hi everyone!

I had been unwell for quite some time and approximately 2 years ago started to gain substantial amount of weight (approx 30kg) without there being any real change in diet or exercise. Then finally last year in October 2012 all was revealed. I was diagnosed with a "double :sad: whammy" - Hashimoto Disease (which results in hyperthyroidism) and Type 2 Diabetes.

So now it is with sheer determination that I plan to rid myself of this unwanted weight :)
