Nana-Capricorn's slimming journey - 40lbs to loose and a year to succeed.

[nana-capricorn]

I started SW on Monday with the intention of loosing about 40lbs in 12 months. This is because it's my 40th wedding anniversary, so thats a pound for every year I'll have been married. Hopefully I can achieve this but as I no longer have a thyroid, loosing weight isn't as easy as it should be.......but I'm going to give it all I've got.

I'm following the Extra Easy plan
