Hi everyone, My name is Natalie and I am ready and motivated to lose this extra weight that I have gained over the last 12 years. I have four boys, 2 are under 2 and my husband and I run our own businesses form home so finding the time and energy to exercise has just been nonexistant, until now. I have been wheat dairy sugar and red meat free for a couple of months now and I actually have the energy to make exercize every day a priority. My fitness pal is amazing and it makes my life so much easier! so now I have no more excuses it is just time to do this :) I have booked a holiday for the hubby and I to Bali in September so my goal is to lose 30kg by then. It would be lovely to have some support buddies that are on the same journey! Feel free to add me so we can support each other and share our tips ect. :D

    Hi Raechelle ☺ It sure is tougher nowadays. Not enough time in the day and too many temptations but if you want something bad enough and your willing to work for it, it will happen. How are you doing so far?

    Hi Cyanne ☺ I know what you mean, my mum always warned me that it would get a lot harder but I really didnt think it would be! Ive stuck to diets to a T and have not dropped any weight so that has been really disheartening. Ive since found out what intolerances I have so Im confident this time when I put the hard work in, it will pay off. So far so good, its only been a week so far and im only stepping on the scales once a fortnight but my clothes already feel looser! How about you?

    I'm in my thirties with only one daughter who is now 7! I always mention I've just had a baby!!! But joking aside I'd love another bubba so I'm hoping to lose 25 kilos before I bring another sprog into the world!
    Living in Melbourne originally from the UK which has been a tough transition for an emotional eater haha!!! Here if you need support Natalie. Good luck!!!

    Now on my fourth day logging in, I'm hoping to be under my calorie goal for the first time. I have .5lb to go and Well on my way to making my 2lbs/week weight loss goal. (Not sure what those convert to in metrics. Sry
