Just joined!

Hi everyone, I'm Amanda from Hampshire.

I'm sick of being 3 stone more than I should be. I joined after Christmas and didn't do this so here I am again.

I put on a pair of shorts this morning for the first time since last year and they are tighter! No good so here I am......

I have swim fit membership at my pool and love walking and cycling so need to get out there more.

I'm a knitter and have a dream of self sufficiency with all my knitted garments. I'm shying away from jumpers and tops right now until I get slimmer and that's frustrating as I have tons of yarn already to make them. So my main motivation is my knitting hobby.

All the support would be so appreciated!

    Stay with it, don't give up, you're going to have good and bad days.

    Understand that it's all up to you on how well things go from here on.

    Good luck on your journey.
  • Thanks both.

    My plan is not to get obsessed, to exercise most days, log everything here and make healthier food choices but smaller portion sizes. I can lean towards greed when helping myself to dinner. I need to learn moderation.
