in Introduce Yourself
Hi - just started on here a couple of days ago. Got sick of people asking me when my baby was due!! lol. I have about 10 kg to lose (that's about 22 lbs) but I carry most of it around my belly, so I do look about 8 months pregnant... I'm at the heaviest I've ever been, just put it all on after birth of 2nd child 2 1/2 yrs ago.

I joined Curves 6 weeks ago and am loving it, but now need to add healthier eating to my routine.

Looking forward to chatting with you all!

D.

    Hi and welcome to MFP.

    I've found this website really helpful. There's plenty of motivation and support.

    There's a growing group of Aussies here along with a few Kiwis too. I'm from Perth. Add me as a friend if you like :smile:
