New and need a fitness pal in Bristol

sarahlm20

hello im a 19 year old girl, 20 next week, looking for a pal in Bristol to help me lose weight!

I have been looking back at photo's and realising how much I have put on. I used to be a size 10-12 but now im fitting in a size 16-18! People tend to say I dont look it , but i feel it, i see it and i hate it! My main worry is my tum and thighs. I have also started to hate my upper arms. Iv gotten stretch marks too, on my back, my tum, behind my legs, on my arms, on my breasts... and to put it frankly i am sick of it. I am sick of seeing thin girls and think oh yeah, i used to be like them!

I dont want to be bones! a skeleton! I want to be healthy too!

I was hoping there is someone in Bristol feeling the same as I do? I would like someone who is encouraging, yet strict. someone who will join in sports with me.... i dread sports! but maybe having someone with me will help. I am good at sticking to things for a week but then i lack motivation afterwards! The last time i weighed (6 months ago!) i was 13 stone, i don't know how heavy now, but i wish to get down to 9!

Please someone help me with this. I wish to travel to Indonesia next year and want to be able to wear a bikini and look pretty

Hey Sarah Im in Yeovil so not near enough to join you for sports but near enough to encourage you x
Firstly you are brilliant for realising very early on that you need to improve your health because i am 43 and have been up and down in weight for the last 20 years ! If you can get it all sorted now and then keep yopur good habits you will be in a much better postion health wise and also with feeling good
Good luck with everything and just remember you are what you eat that is sooo true and just a little exercise even just dancing for 15 mins in front of tv is all going to help xx
Best wishes Louise

OMG that explains me exactly. I live here in Bristol =D where abouts do you live?
I am 21 and feele xactly the same, i can do reaaly well for a week and then the next week I mess up =[ then the following week I'm doing good then I mess up again. It's a vicous cycle and I need to break it. I want to find someone to go jogging with, or swimming, i enjoy working out but struggle moreso with my diet. I used to have a buddy in Cheltenham last year and together I lost a stone in 3 months with her.

Let me know, we can have a chat. Oh and i weight 13 stone too
