UK newbie seeks a couple of genuine online buddies!

Having spent a couple of days trawling the forums I see that it can be a bit 'Facebook' on the collecting friends front! I'm not into that, I'm looking for someone I can check in with daily to motivate each other, especially on the exercise front.
Anyone out there with similar stats that's interested?

42 year old mum, 190lbs (31 bmi) looking to get to 25 bmi. Self-employed, working full-time. 2 school age children, a husband and chickens!

    Hi there,

    I'm a 41yo mum from the UK, have one 12yo boy & work 4 days a week. Have been here for 3 months now and planning to lose about 42lbs to finally get into a healthy BMI range!
    Currently doing Zumba and C25K for exercise - just did wk3/d2 this morning and loving it so far lol!

    If you want to share some support then send a fr :smile:

    (btw I'm not on FB :laugh: )

    Hi, I am a 40 yr old, mum of 1 (16 yr old girl). I started out at 189lbs (before I started using MFP), I am now at 129. I am 5'1". I am married (18yrs this month....) self employed, working full time, one dog, one bunny and I work out 5 nights a week. My diary is open to friends, I try to eat healthy, but sometimes you will see chocolate and wine in there, everything in moderation IMO :) Feel free to add me.

    Well, I think the only similarity we have is we are both from the UK!

    I am motivated though, I do log/check in everyday, exercise daily and I like being accountable for others!

    Feel free to add me if you like!
