Hi everyone!

My name is Jan, I'm 25 from Scotland and have a beautiful little two year old daughter. I have just over 50lbs to lose and I'm doing it this time! Just looking for some online friends with similar goals to help support each other! Im also up for any challange type things going?

This is my third time (I think) using this site and it has really helped in the past but I always end upgiving up and this time I have gained even more weight so I am now at my heaviest ever (14stone)!!

Never really used the forums before so Im hoping that this will be the difference this time and with some support I wont give up!

good luck everyone and thanks for reading xxxx

    This is my second time on here. I feel much more dedicated this time around.
    I'm also a mother. I'm 21 years old and my daughter is just about 18 months old.
    I'm looking to lose 35ish pounds, and to surpass when my body was looking it's best.

    I'm a mom of 4, I have a ton to lose, and this is my 2nd time around. The first time I stopped because I thought I had come into a routine and didn't need to keep track. I was wrong! I'm determined to lose it all this time

    Good luck on your journey

    Hello Everyone! This is my first time here on MFP. I have a preschooler too. I am going to lose 80 lbs. I do not know what that is in stones.:) I like the weight sounds in stones, I guess b/c I am not that fam w/ it, it doesn't sound as bad in lbs. We will do this. If you think that you can or you think that you can't; you are right.

    80 pounds would be about 5 stone 7 pound :)

    I wanna lose for now 51lbs which is about 3 stone 6. then might lose another 15lb.. ill see :)

    you divide your total pounds by 14, cause theres 14 in each stone :)
