Loving life and food, want to lose weight and looking for MFpals to support each other...

Hello everyone

This is day 2 but I know MFP quite well as I had used it a few years ago before my wedding and had lost 2 stones and something. I have put quite a bit back on over the last 3 years and I have now decided to go back to it.
I am looking for friends to support me during my journey. I had a couple of great MFP pals the first time round and we really encouraged ourselves.

A bit about me: I am in my late 30s, I am French and live in South West England. I am married, no kids.

I am looking for some support pals that have the same kind of ideas about me about losing weight. I love food and wine too much to cut all the bad things but I am trying to balance the fact that I want and need to lose weight with the fact that it is real life and that temptation is around and that frankly life is too short to live only on leafs and grains (this is not targetting vegetarian or vegan people but to people who cut everything out of their diet just to lose weight)

I am giving myself an objective which is quite high but I will see how far I go: 6 months to lose 39lbs. In 6 months we are going back to the Dominican Republic and would love to be at goal. My goal has nothing to do with BMI as I would be still overweight for the medical statistics but I know this is the right weight for me.

If you love life and food, looking to lose weight the right way, don’t mind a couple of glasses of wine or some chocolate from time to time and looking for some support, please befriend me and we can do our journey together.

Good luck

Haha, I certainly love food too and I don't think that losing weight means you have to give up all of the treats.
