in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone,

I've posted a little in the last month, but just realised that I haven't done a proper introduction :) I'm 37 and have lost 21kg in 9 months, but have 35-40kg to go. I lost most of my weight after hypnosis (I know, I know, it's a bit out there, but hey it's worked for me) and have now started to seriously train and found that I was much hungrier than when I was just doing light exercise (well derrrrrrrrrrrr lol) and decided to track what I was putting in my mouth to make sure I was doing it right. I started running in January and am now in training for 14km event in August and a half marathon (gulp) in September. Fitness is my main motivator and losing weight at a slower rate with less restrictions is what I'm aiming for.

Add me if you want, I'd love some friends :)

    yes technically... they are salt lakes and there a few of them scatter over the different states.

    Another Ozzy - I've nearly reached my goal tracking here. I don't eat terribly healthily, but I am able to keep my calories in check, so, whatever works in the long run I guess :) Feel free to add me :D
