in Introduce Yourself
Hi, im 28, have 4 children who range in age from 5-10. This isnt the first time ive attempted to loose weight. My weight has ballooned on and off for the last (nearly) 10 years. At my heaviest ive been dress size 22-24, at my lightest dress size 12... Im currently an 18... Just looking to see if theres any new people on here, or in simular situations.. Or that just wants to chat or anything? Lol

    Hey kalinda, I've got about 4 stone to lose. 1st week in and I've lost 4lb. I have hypothyroidism so it's really a battle for me. Good luck, add me as a friend if you like and we can encourage each other x

    After my first child I was size 22 . Got down to a 6 which was ridiculous. Now I'm still chubby but not in the way I was. Although she is 22now I have had another five since her and I think when you have kids comfort eating can be the only treat you have. X
