A wee bit about me.

 I'm never really sure what to write on these sorts of pages but here goes.


I'm Louise. Im 24.  A mum to a gorgeous little girl, step-mum to a wonderful teenage boy (yes I really did say that) and wife to an amazing man.

I have struggled with my weight all my life and at the age of 15 I found out I had diabetes. I'm going to get into which type I have because I actually don't know. They have never tested me for antibodies which would mean I am type 1, but all you need to know is that I take insulin and tablets.

I have tried many diets over the years, including general healthy eating, Weight Watchers, Terri-anns 123 plan and currently following Slimming World.

I'm writing this blog to document my weight loss journey, to keep track of how I do, to have something to look back on and to keep me focused when I feel like giving up. Although it is a personal blog I always welcome constructive criticism and help. NO NASTINESS THOUGH!
