Hello everyone,

Just wanted to say hi as a new member to the site.
It was recommended to me by a friend, and having been on the back of 2 years of yoyo dieting, I thought this may be a useful tool to motivate attempt number 1003....

With summer just round the corner, a line has to be drawn. Plus my weight (rightly or wrongly) has been playing on my mind for sometime.

So I've decided that I need to do something for me, to stop this feeling of dissapointment with myself, satisfy my longing for a nicer figure and also to improve my confidence.

I find it almost rediculous that we independant, intelligent woman find this so hard to control... let's fight back!

Good luck everyone.

    Sorry Banks, I mean Mr Hose...

    I'm not an easy girl to make blush, but I'll admit I'm as rosie as a stop light right now... ;-)

    No offence intended, I'm just better at commenting from the female stand point - seeing as I am one :-)

    I look forward to seeing how we both progress on here, the site looks like a great aid, but I guess we'll wait and see...

    Thank you for everyone's support, good luck to you all too x

    Vertu,

    Banks and I have been around here for a while, and we like to make fun of ourselves! He was just joking around. We are all grateful for the male point of view, and especially banks / Mr. Hose.

    Don't let our silliness make you :blushing:

    It's all in good fun! Stick around for the giggles. :flowerforyou:
