I am going to lose this weight this time... I'm sick of looking like a teletubbie (yep imagine that round stomach! lol) I know its going to take time though, cos as much as I'd like to give up the vino or the ocassional takeaway, realistically its NOT going to happen.. I just need steady exercise and mostly being in control of my intake.

I'm a stay at home mum of two boys...... if any of this sounds familiar and you think we can support each other... send me a message... would love some more buddies!!

    Hi this sounds very similar to me, friend request coming your way.
    I'm a stay at home mum to a girl and boy, struggling to control my eating habits and work out more as, like you , I don't want to give up the wine and take aways. :flowerforyou: :bigsmile:

    Oh and its the lovely Helena Bonham-Carter on my profile as I've recently become a Harry Potter addict, LOVE Bellatrix and Helena is a year older than me, good genes aside... surely I can achieve something similar body wise?

    Love your pic, Helena is just amazing in Harry Potter
