I live and work in Germany and travel a lot. I love to cook and take cooking classes on much of our travels. I also LOVE Dairy and fat free or low fat European cheese does not exist. I make homemade cheese and spend a lot of time at the local cheesemonger ‘s. My husband is a foodie as well but being a guy can lose weight much easier. We are active at home and when we travel but the pounds are not coming off.

I am 40 years old and coping with early menopause and diabetes, both of which are making weight loss difficult at best. Looking do drop 25kg over the next year and hoping this site can help me track my food and exercise to achieve this goal.
