    Hey Yvette,

    Is that your beautiful baby in that picture with you?

    I am starting MFP today, and i aim to lose 40lbs. Over the past couple of months my weight just ballooned and im not quite sure why. But its made me start feeling very depressed and emotional and i hate tsking thingd out on my boyfriend.

    I am positive about my journey, and the hardest thing for me is going to be the exercise. x

    I'm 26........does that mean I'm old!!! lol!

    I'm a month or two into losing 40lbs too...it's tough, but if you stick at it, the weight will come off.

    My problem is keeping up exercise too...I get bored with things easily and tend to give up after a few goes at things. I hate the gym, find it soooo boring, but what I've found works for me is to mix it up....I started horse riding lessons about 18-20 months ago, and LOVE IT! It's such a brilliant work out, but doesnt feel like exercise as you're learning and having fun, it's the only thing I've stuck at long term and still love as much now as the day I started...but it's expensive :(

    So I go horse riding once a week, running once or twice a week (not far, only about 2 to 2.5 miles, so only takes 25 mins) and I've started doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred DVD...they're just 20 min intensive workouts, so you don't have time to get bored!!! It's brilliant.

    Good luck with it all and hope you get to where you want to be :)

    Sal x
