As delighted and smiling Britons finally got a glimpse of Kate Middleton and Prince William’s first appearance as parents, as well as a quick royal view of the future king, George Alexander Louis.
Kensington Palace released an official statement. The Royal couple wanted to show their appreciation, saying: “We would like to thank the staff at the Lindo Wing and the whole hospital for the tremendous care the three of us have received. We know it has been a very busy period for the hospital and we would like to thank everyone - staff, patients and visitors - for their understanding during this time.”

Do you dream of being the same size you were in high school or when you got married? That will take work if it means losing a lot of weight. Don’t rush. Setting small, realistic goals will get the scale moving in the right direction.
