Hello!
I have completed my first week of using MFP on the phone app but thought I'd venture on here to find some friends and hopefully maintain my motivation!
So my story goes...I lost 2.5 stone/35 lbs over the course of 2006-8, then I kidded myself for years that I was being healthy/dieting and it stalled and 14lbs crept back on. 8 weeks ago I suddenly had a surge of motivation to be healthy, have a month off alcohol and get fitter and (along with a meeting a random stranger who introduced me to mfp a couple of weeks ago) here I am 15lbs lighter so far! I still have at least 21lbs to get to what I think will be my ideal weight but feel more determined than ever.
If anyone wants to 'friend' me feel free, my diary is open to friends. Especially if there are any fellow Brits on here, be nice to hear from you too!
Good luck everyone!
