in Introduce Yourself
Hi guys,

I joined this site because I seen a girl who had pictures up on this from doing the 30 day shred and she totally inspired me. I have been on the weight loss train for what seems like forever. I used to be around 17 stone and got down to 11 and now I want to get this final 3 stone off and tone up :wink:

I find it really hard now to stick to a healthy eating/exercise plan but I have now started counting Weight Watcher points and doing different exercises so I dont get bored. I also just bought the 30 day shred DVD and am very excited to start doing that :happy:

My aim is to one day be able to wear a bikini, and feel very condifent in it. I know its a bit of a stupid goal but it keeps me focused, esp as it is summer (not much of a summer in Ireland tho)

So I thought it would be great to join a site like this for support and hopefully to offer support to others, I think if i surround myself with honest people who are very focused on loosing weight then I will also think like that.

So HI! :smile:

    Hi and welcome :smile:

    You will get all the help, support and encouragement you need from here, I am sure you will soon be as addicted as the rest of us.

    Remember to log everything as it really does help and is a real eyeopener at times.

    Look out for the mini challenges too as they are great motivators.

    I love Dublin, great night out but how do you all afford to do it regular - very very expensive

    Good luck with achieving your goal, we are all here to help you on your way :smile:

    Hi.

    I too am currently following WW pro points & am kinda doing 30day shred when I can - my knee issue is not allowing me to do it daily.

    Would love to know what you think of WW and if you have found any clever low point recipes to share? I just brought 2 cook books and can't wait to get trying them out.

    Feel free to add me - I'm in UK but don't think that matters.

    Good luck on your journey :bigsmile:

    HI there

    I'm from Dublin, living in meath now.

    Love this site, great for everything you need to know. One thing I wish we could change tho is the fact that alot of the totally yummy souding recipes use alot of ingredients we cannot get here in ireland. Alot of people from the US on here hence why.

    Feel free to add my as a friend :smile:
