Hello All,

My name is Aby and I'm a 26 year old female who is currently at around 265lbs and around 6'' tall. I live in Birmingham England, UK.

I have previously lost a lot of weight in the past and became quite a gym bunny, however, after getting pregnant with my little girl I have well and truly fell off the wagon. During pregnancy I gained 5 stone (yes, 5, I'm not sure if they left another one in there!). My little girl is now 2 years old and I am looking to start my weight loss journey again. I started around 5 weeks ago just cutting the crap and making healthy choices (less carbs, less junk, less fizzy drinks and no chocolate etc) and exercise 5-6 times a week an hour at a time using www.fitnessblender.com. I also walk alot (some days up to 6.5 miles walking to and from nursery and to work). As you can see, I'm really on this and determined to make a life long change and am really enjoying myself :)

I'm looking for friends and mentors for accountability and inspiration. If you would like help me on my journey, please add me :)
