Hi there

I am 46 and also 5"2, my weight is currently 11st 2lbs. I would like to lose about 1-2 stone ideally but its more about living a healthier lifestyle, especially as my 12yr old son is massively overweight! I would like to change our eating habits for both of us to benefit.

I find that I'm not too bad with food generally but I do enjoy a tipple or so in the evening, which is my downfall! Food wise...I'm pretty good for a while but then i binge on anything sugary 😕

My plan is to quit the evening tipple (s!) and really make a determined effort with food....I have my brother's wedding in 3 weeks so would like to lose 1/2 stone by then ideally!

Fingers crossed.....!!

Good luck to you!

Thankyou...

I'm taller at five feet five but have a couple of stone to lose but am taking it slowly at a pound a week. More exercise at weekends and bought some weights for ten minutes a day in the warm.
