    hi all :) I'm Sophie - have been a member of MFP for a year but never got properly stuck in. I hope that if I get into the community part too it'll carry me along to my goal! I live in Chch, but am originally from the UK. Got one husband, one 5yo daughter, four chooks, a veggie patch in need of lots of work (think exercise motivating thoughts..) and a desk job. Um, that's me :)

    Kia ora koutou.
    I'm Keriana, also called Georgie. I'm 44 with 2 grown kids, 1 boy and 1 girl. Originally from good old Christchurch but moved to Oregon USA back in the winter of 2006. (Most of NZ was covered in snow too.) Recently relocated to Florida in September of this year with the new Hubby. Well nearly new cause it's been almost 2 years.
    I started my health and well being changes on January 8th of this year. Finally decided that if I want my knee to stop hurting then I should look at getting fitter than I was. The bonus to that is the weight I have shed. I started MFP on June 1st because of one of my Oregonian friends and it has been one of the better things I have done for myself.
    SW: 112kg
    CW: 91kG
    1st GW: 75kg
    Possible final GW 65kg.
    Oh and I am 160cm short. Lol I had to convert everything to Kgs since it's all lbs & ozs here.

    Hello, my name is maureen and i'm a food-a-holic!. I eat the seefood diet, but it's got me into trouble. Lots. Between the eating, the wine and several months on prednisone (I have lupus) i'm now 113.00. so a wee tad to loose.

    I found this site, a friend uses a similar one and I like it - so easy to use. Started tracking yesterday.

    got all my summer clothes down out of the loft yesterday and started washing them. hmmmmmmmmpppph... not that many will fit, but it has motivated me.

    My bug bear is when entering my data I got it wrong and put 111.3 instead of 113. I tried to change the inital weight but couldn't. if anyone knows how I can do this would appreciated it.

    thanks and hope everyone has a productive weight loss day:)

    Hi there,

    My name is Victoria and I'm from the Waikato :D I have tried this out a few times and learned some tough lessons but well needed lessons, I am back for good, logging everything, open diary and being accountable.

    Starting weight 74kg
    Current weight 68.5kg
    Goal weight 65 kg

    If i can manage to get to my goal weight it will be the first time in 2 years that I have managed it :D I am going to give it my all. If you have room on your friends list please feel free to add me :D I am a great supporter but with most of my contacts over seas it makes it a little difficult.
