Hi all!

I'm 30 years old from lil old South Wales in the UK. I usually use this site as an app on my iphone (so have missed out on these awesome forums!) but cracked the screen on the phone a few days ago so have now logged on, online :) I love this site!

After years of carrying around excess weight I hope to shed the pounds for good! I started the weight loss after Christmas and have lost 20lbs to date :) (My ticker is wrong - will have to change that). The biggest help for me has been my gorgeous dog which we've had for about 4 months now. She loves walking so now I have no excuse - rain, hail or shine she's taken out for her walks. I have (had) a great app that tracks the mileage we cover which is a big help too to track calories burnt every day.

Would love to make a few friends on here for extra motivation so add me if you like! :)

Lisa.

    Hope you get the app back soon...I find the android one really good. I agree with the dog comment too, though I recently discovered that you don't need a dog to walk....just attitude :D

    Main site is great for support too :)

    Welcome, you sound like you've made a great start.

    Ive been here since July 2010, I did well then I fell back into old habits and gained 10lbs. But now I feel that this time when I lose them I am saying goodbye to them forever.
    Still got a long way to go til my goal. But I have learnt that however desperate I am to see big numbers every weigh in, this isn't actually an episode of biggest loser, this is my life and slow and steady definitely wins the race!

    Good Luck
