Getting back on the wagon
Having yo-yoed all my life in 2013 I decided once and for all to something about my weight. At 5foot 5inched and 16 stone. In 2015 I got to goal of 10 stone 10lb. Fast forward 2 years and I'm back up to 14 st 7lb. Lots of hard work to do (again) Think I will set a more realistic goal of 11 stone 7lb.
