JoGarrett86

I'm 25 and live in Essex. I'm also trying the slim fast diet. It seems to be working i have been on it a week and lost 4lbs so can't be all bad.

My goal is to shift about 100lbs so still got a long uphill struggle but I will get there, as I'm sure everyone else on here will.

Good luck

Hi I'm new on here, my names Rachel I'm 23 and I live in the western isles.

I'm trying to lose weight for my twin sisters wedding in august (she's a size 6 and people don't believe we are sisters never mind twins) We have our bridesmaids dresses already (mine is a size 12 so I have to shift 2 dress sizes) We are also going to Magaluf for the hen party (my first time abroad and most of the girls going are size 8)

I also love food,its hard to get a good variety of fresh fruit and veg and low fat/diet versions of foods where I live so I'm worried I'm going to get bored of eating the same things. There are quite a few family members birthdays coming up too so I know there will be dinners out and cake around.

Any motivation or tips would be greatly appreciated! Xxx

weddinglizzie

Hey guys, my names Lizzie, Im 22 and Im getting married in October 2013, and I want to look amazing for then! I have a big issue in the fact that I work at Nandos, ,so its hard to curb my cravings for fatty foods all the time when I get a free meal every shift... sometimes two meals! I hardly have any motivation so It would be great to get some UK friends on here so I can do it for you guys too, and not just for myself. Because if I just do it for myself, I dont think I'll ever get there!

marielw

Hi, you can add me as a friend if you like. I'm 37 years old with an almost 2 year old son. I live in Hampshire UK and started out on here at 208lbs. I managed to lose almost 3 stones between May 2010 and May 2011, but then became complacent and during the latter half of 2011 i put a stone back on!

I started back here on New Years Day and have lost 4.4lbs since Jan 1st!, so am optimistic.

Good luck to you - you can do it! xx:flowerforyou:

jenfleur77

Hi all. Essex girl here, on a quest to lose about 3 + 1/2 stone this year. Been on here 10 days so far and its really helping. Do need to go to Argos this weekend and buy scales though, never really wanted a set before now!

I'll do some adding later - currently at work and sneakily adding my lunch calories on! :laugh:

bubbles9021

I need to get scales but Argos are out of stock of the ones I want at my local Argos! They are half price at the moment which is also a bonus!

Greetings from Glasgow!

Just take it one day at a time and you'll get there. :flowerforyou:

For all you UK MFPers, if you want a fitness challenge to work towards and keep you training you could do worse than enter one of these...
