New member approaching 40 need motivation

Hi, based in the UK and have around 11-15 lbs to lose. Work and having a 1 year old son have seen my exercise levels and calorie intake go in opposite directions. Too many glasses of wine each night after the struggle of getting the baby to sleep, working in the restaurant business, has brought me here.

Have started running during my lunch hour and tracking everything I put in my mouth. Now need the motivation to keep it up, so looking to add some friends for that boost.

    Your 1 year old son should be all the motivation you need. :) Certainly having a 2 year and a 2 month old has refocused me. Feel free to add me.

    Hi, I'm 43 and also have children - it certainly seemed to make things tougher, but also gives you that focus. Feel free to add me :-)
