You know what it's like, you're over 40, you're overweight, you can't find clothes to fit you, you feel unmotivated. I am on here to lose just over 42 lbs that I have managed to pile on over the years. I want to be me again, not this overweight harassed looking middle aged woman who stares at me from my mirror.

I am a 47 years old, married with one child who is 8 years old. I live in the UK. If like me you have been feeling a bit "bleurrgh" about yourself, then please join me for motivation, support, chat and fun. I have started a group and have posted the link below if you would like to drop by and share your experiences.

I hope the link works!

    Hello, on doctors orders I have until July 10th to lose 4.5 stone - a tall order when you look at it that way. I have to have my gallbladder removed but because of my weight and heart I was born with wrong this NEEDS to be done, I also have a problem with my thyroid!. Breaking it down it is only 2lbs a week so that doesn't sound so bad. Please ladies give me strength and encouragement to do this.

    I am married with two lovely grown up children, both still at home, one working and one at university.
