Nice to meet you!

Hello all,

I joined MFP yesterday and thought I would introuduce myself as I expect to be here quite often.

I'm Kim, I'm 32 and I live in the South West of England with my husband and our cat. We don't plan to have any children, instead we want to travel the world and I intend to look good in a bikini while I do it!

I've struggled with my weight for years and am always stopping and starting diets. I hate starting them and recently something in my brain clicked and I decided that if I hate it so much, why stop? So this is the last time I'll start! I'm not dieting, I'm changing my lifestyle. I'm a week in and going good, hungry, but good!

So, I currently weigh 221 pounds and I want to weigh 150 so that's 71 pounds to go. Onwards and upwards!!!
