New here so thought I'd say hello. I've decided that I need to act on my weight as I've put on a lot after an operation and job change the last year or so.

My realistic goal is to get down to 140lbs (10st, half what I was to start with) but I'm hoping to get to 9 which will be better for me on my BMI.

After speaking with my GP to discuss if my body could cope with IF and a month of gradually introducing it I'm now alternate day IFing. I find I sleep better then I ever have with this. I'm also trying to do a minimum of 30 minutes of dancing a day now my body is adjusted. Upping that to an hour a day on feed days.

This will teach me for going from having a very active lifestyle to a very sedentary one and not altering my intake to match.

    Hello and welcome.

    My goal also is to get to 140lbs. For myself firstly and to help me health wise.

    Feel free to add me as a friend if you would like.

    I'll add you once I figure out how :)

    I'm sure we will get there if we stay strong and power through the low points.
