hi my names Katie. since the birth of my second child (4yrs ago) i have struggled with losing weight. i gained 4stone while pregnant and after he was born suffered with medical conditions that lead me gain another stone. so that 5 stone (70lbs) i gained within a year. i did loose just over 2 stone (28lbs) in 2009 but last year with job changes and family stuff i maintained this weight but was unable to lose any more. this year i am determined to take off that extra 3 stone (42lbs) and become pre-baby weight. i may if i achieve this try lose more to become my ideal weight which i haven't been since my teens.
i need motivation though and am a 1st time user to this site. hopefully with support of others i will achieve at least some of this weight loss.
My Motto is we CAN do it... all positive thinking and that.

Katie

    This site combined with 4 days a week exercise is the recipe to success.
    Starting changing those ifs to whens. Because when you hit your ideal weight you can always say I told you so.
