Newbie here - 19lbs to lose

Options
5ft 4in - weight 145lbs (10st 5)
Looking to lose 19lbs to be 9st
Would also like to tone up!
I definitely recognise that my diet is likely to hold me down!

I enjoy going to les Mills classes at my local gym but also enjoy outdoor running! However finding it difficult to get up and go out on my own and run!

Looking for buddies to help support each other in our weight loss :)
