    I've only been on here since April, but have made a lifestyle since October. So far I'm down 74 lbs, but still have another 60 to go. Feel free to add me. I am a bit OCD with my new lifestyle, so i hold myself accountable everyday. Good luck-I know you can do it.

    Feel free to add me. :)

    I have an underactive thyroid (now medicated),am a picky eater and a wife who LOVES to cook and is great at it. A bad combo for someone trying to lose weight. :)

    Add me! I have PCOS as well and have struggled with my weight throughout adulthood. I am tired of the yo-yo with my weight being up and down. I want it to go down and STAY DOWN!

    I'm in the states but I would love a friend from Scotland! That's my dream vacation destination! My in-laws live in Surrey, Red Hill! I have been with MFP since November and have lost 50 pounds! I still have 74 pounds to go but it's coming off, slowly but it's coming off. I have a 6 yr old daughter and a 8 month old son. I'm originally from New Jersy but I currently live in Florida. My husband is british and sometimes the culture clash can be a little funny!

    Welcome, Iona.

    I like your concept of "shifting" weight! :) I also have hypothyroidism, along with sleep apea. Both have contributed to weight gain for me as well. Feel free to add me for moral support and I wish you the best of luck on your MFP journey. It's a great site and a very supportive community!

    Hey girl! Feel free to add me! I've got hypothyroidism, but I'm feeling like my weight is due to our new baby. And cupcakes. Mostly cupcakes.

    I can use a good kick in the *kitten* on a regular basis, but I can also give one out if required!

    Welcome! Feel free to add me! I've got 60+ pounds to lose and also suffer from thyroid disease. We're definitely fighting and uphill battle, but I am 100% positive that it can be done! There are definitely some days I need friends around to give me a kick in the *kitten*, and I am always happy to return the favor! ;-)

    you or anyone can add me!

    you'll love it here, mfp is about food and friends! chosing better food choices and counting calories, and if you make a bad choice put it down, be honest with your diary, none of us have gavels and we don't judge, tomorrow after all is a new day! and add lots of friends because they help inspire, motivate, and support you! you or anyone can add me! I have lost 36 so far and still have about 40 to go!

    I know they tell you with PCOS it is much harder to lose weight but it can be done. I started out at 260 and I'm down to 190! Feel free to add me and I wish you the best of luck :)
