in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone! My name is Matt, I'm 20, 6ft 2' and I'm from London.

I'll be going back to University in 2 weeks and I'm determined to lose weight and start looking and feeling great.

I want to lose 3 stone (42 pounds) as quick as possible, can anyone recommend me any good dieting and gym advice as I am a complete moron when it comes to it lol.

I want to start chatting to some people in similar circumstances to me so feel free to add me and we can keep up on each others progress.

Good luck to all you other weight lossers!

    Hi Matt! Feel free to add me. I also have a great support group if you're interested.

    Set your MFP to losing 1 or 2lbs a week. If you set it to 1lb, you may be pleasantly surprised :) The first few weeks are when you tend to lose the most. 42lbs will likely take a few months.

    Strength training buddy. Get in the gym and SMASH those weights. Turn your unwanted weight into muscle and let the muscle burn the rest of the fat off.

    Do a STRENGTH training regiment. If you want one, friend me and I'll send a great one to you.
