Hi, I'm grannyshell.

I'm a mum to 3 and became a grandma in 2016. I've realised that I need to lose weight so that I can do things with my grandchild... So, here I am.

Hello grannyshell, that sounds like an excellent reason to lose weight. I have found the NHS 12 week plan to be really useful. Also use the NHS BMI calculator to work out how many calories you can eat and still lose weight. I wish you luck and determination 😃

Thanks. Just hope I can stay focused as it will take more than 12 weeks 😁. But, a start is a start right. Slimmer, healthier me here I come x

Oh yes it does take a bit longer! I am about to start my 3rd round, I tried carrying on without it but I needed the structure😃

[Grannyshell in reply to nteapea]

Yes I think I'll be the same. Just checked my bmi. Now there's a reason to cut back on the excesses if I ever saw one 😁. Good luck with your journey. Can't wait to get mine started x

Nothing quite like spending time with grandchildren, enjoy. Good luck with the weight loss.

Hi Grannyshell. I'm new too! Just joined today. Like you, I also have three children. No grandchildren yet, but two of them got engaged last year so .... well you never know ....! You do sound very determined, and what a lovely reason for losing weight. Good luck!
