Introduction Text Many years ago after my doctor advised my to lose weight, I joined sparkpeople and I lost 8kg (17lbs) with the help of the sparkpeople food tracker to count my calorie intake. After a while I stopped using the food tracker, and slowly gained 8kg (17lbs) again. That's 1kg (2.2lbs) every year for the last 8 years. OMG how it creeps up on you. So here I am again, I've rejoined Sparkpeople and my weight loss journey begins....

My overall goal is to reduce the amount of processed food I eat and to lose around 10kg (22lbs) by June. I'm aiming for around 54kg (119lbs). I've been feeling unwell for over a year now and slowly changing the foods that I eat. It's been trial and error working out what my body can eat now I'm in my 40s.

I'm eliminating GMO processed foods, and white sugar from my diet. I buy organic free range eggs, chicken and dairy products when available. I never buy low fat foods. I've replaced all the oils in my kitchen with organic coconut oil and and occasionally cook with butter. I enjoy banana smoothies, stir fry veggies and fruit salads, and sandwiches made with sour dough bread. Walking is my favorite exercise.

I'm 42, 158cm tall and weigh around 64kg.

I have a sweet tooth and a weakness for chocolate and cakes. These are the foods I can't keep in my home because once I eat them I can't stop. Chocolate and cakes becomes all I can think about until it's gone.
