Some starting stats

I guess most of the people who will stumble across this blog will be embarking on, or following Slimming World, and so quite a few will be interested in my weight loss.  

I'm very happy to share how things are going - so let's start off with some stats:

I'm 32, 5'6, and my starting weight, from about 5 weeks ago, was 165lbs. My BMI was 26, and I'm about a size 14. 

I've never really dieted before, and generally eat pretty healthily. But I do eat a bit too much (read: total foodie!)... and I like wine. A lot.

Over the past few years, I've gradually put on a few kilos, and I decided that it was time to see if I could shift it for good and get myself in shape. 

I'm aiming to lose just over 10%, to get down to 143lbs, and a BMI of mid-range healthy. 

So far, on EE, I have lost 7lbs.
