Hi guys. Just joined up so thought I'd drop by. I'm a rather large lady and got so desperate in January went for private surgery for a gastric band (lap band) to be fitted. Used to be relatively fit and played rugby and trained most days but a knee injury and several ops put an end to it 5 years ago.
Have a chaotic life and spend most of the week living well in hotels so I find routine really hard. Decided to try this for 2 reasons. 1 I need to lose the weight and get fitter and healthier and 2 I've just signed up to a 5k next year for cancer research for my best friend who sadly doesn't have much time Left with us. ( he thinks its hilarious as he knows my aversion and pure hatred I have for running). Can't say I excited about starting but going to try and find the love of pounding the streets.
Wish me luck.
