I'm 27 from New Zealand and determined that I'm finally going to lose the weight that has crept on for the last few years! Committed to making a lifestyle change rather than a diet and feel like I'm finally in the right frame of mind to do that.

I just started studying, doing an animal care course and I'm hoping to go on to be a vet nurse as animals are my passion. I have a dog and a cat that came with me when I moved back home to NZ from Australia last year.

Hardest challenge at the moment is giving up my red wine!!!

Hope to get to know some people as this forum looks like a great place to get some support
