Hello! Welcome To My FIrst Blog :-)

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am very new to this 'Blog' business so please bear with me while I learn how it all works! I have recently become a new mum to a baby boy - Max, he is now 2 and a half months old. He is a great baby - text book you might say - so I'm very lucky. I had a very unwell pregnancy for most of the 9 months, with the morning sickness lasting all day and all of 6 and a half months - dreadful. Along the way I didnt get out much or do any form of exercise, even walking I found hard to do especially towards the end as I would be cramping up so much. Anyhow when i became pregnant my weight was 78 kilos. In my 1st trimester I lost 6 kilos from all the sickness, so became 72k, and I am now 88.3k, so i have a bit of weight to drop. This story is primarily what leads me to write this blog. I am embarking on a weight loss journey to not only lose the extra weight I gained in my pregnancy, but to get to my weight goal of approximately 63 kilos which is what I weighed about 5 years ago (I am 37 years old now). I have joined a gym, and enlisted the help of a personal trainer. I have already had 3 sessions with her, and they have been great. I thoroughly recommend using a personal trainer because they really get you motivated and push you to your limits - which is exactly what I need right now.

My blog is going to be made up of my entries, as well as articles I write on fat loss, and other tips and information I feel will be helpful for weight loss. i hope you enjoy reading it, and thankyou for joining me on my journey!
