Hi all

I just thought I'd drop by and introduce myself.
I'm Becca, I'm 28 and I'm in desperate need of losing some weight, and the encouragement from you guys might be enough to make it stick!

I weight 18st 10 (my heaviest was just under 20st) I think this is about 262lb. I'm in a UK 22-24 and I want to get down to a 16.
I've set my big goal as 200lb for the time being which is about 14st 2, I think.

I'm taking it 7lb at a time though.

Anyway, hi there!

Becca

    Thanks guys.
    I've just decided to do it - my boyfriend is the same, so we're helping each other - I figure I'm still young enough for it to make a difference to my future health.

    So here goes!
