Hello everyone 
I've been very absent from the last few BC, but now I'm back! Was away mainly because 2016 was a very stressful year with job difficulties (me), ill health (oh), unemployment (OH due to medical incident), tragic death of a friends 20 year old brother, house renovation etc!
My otherwise LCHF eating went totally out the window and I started 2017 weighing more than I ever have (243 lbs).
I decided that enough was enough and 2017 would be a good year. I started back on LCHF and since the 4th of January I've lost 13lbs
I've also booked myself in for a pole photoshoot in April 
, started training more seriously for it and bought myself a beautiful outfit to wear. I will look fabulous no matter what I weigh.
This year is already looking good, I faced my work issues and I am much happier at work now. OH has a job on a local farm and his new medication means he's been seizure free since August (reason he lost job). House is pretty much done so we can relax in the evening instead of working.
And, my wonderful friend who lost her brother is now engaged AND she asked me to be her bridesmaid 
I will try very hard to keep up with the thread though I've only got my phone now as laptop died.
Can't wait to get started, good luck to everyone!
