Hi, I'm new to slim fast again, lol. I've used it on and off for years n years n years..... The last time I used it seriously was in sept 2009. I lost 4 stone. Now Dec 2013 I find I,ve put 3 stone of that back on. I,ll be 50 in June so want to lose it again for then. Want to be 50 and fab, not 50 and fat, lol. I,ve known for a few months that I needed to lose the pud again but last night was a nightmare, getting ready to go out and nothing fitted me comfortably, nearly gave up and crawled under the duvet. So this morning, I've had a slimfast for my breakfast, dug out the sit up machine and am going to lose this pud. I,ll log on here and myfitnesspal and track and blog my way thru this. Gilly
