Hiya, I just found this site today, have joined and am now tracking my eating habits and exercise . I know this will help me lose weight, as I lost 2 stone last year doing much the same thing (on a different site).

Unfortunately, I had to have a Hysterectomy a few weeks ago and during the recovery period have managed to gain 13 lbs. It's all that sitting there, doing nothing, I blame, as I'm usually pretty active.

I'm hoping that now I'm back on my feet and able to walk my 4 dogs again, this will help shift some of the weight, however I also know I'll need to cut down my calorie intake, hence joining here.

I'm looking forward to "meeting" you all on these boards.
