Good evening all.

I'm mum of 6 and a serial comfort snacker...

I normally shy away and "diet" in public and have failed miserably on and off for a fair few years now.

This is my year to step up, be noticed and get it done!

Would love inspiring friends who can give me the boot up the backside I need when I'm falling by the wayside x

    Hi, I'm a newbie. Mother of 2, grandmother of 3. I will be 45 in Feb. I think I'm at the point where enough is enough. Either I do this, or I deal with being fat forever. My initial goal is to lose 70 lbs. I will decide from there if I need to lose more. Good luck to you all. I believe we can do this, it's really a matter of what we want more, and taking the time to think it through.
