Guy from UK looking for a few friends

Posts: 2
Hello all
I've just signed up to the website after discovering the iPad app for it.
I'm a guy from the UK, in my mid-thirties and I've been overweight and unhappy about it for a long time. I've decided that rather than going to a weight-watching class or drinking meal replacement milkshakes to simply watch and record the calories I consume and to burn off a set amountof calories per day. Basically eat less and move more! From having spent a little while on the forums here it's occurred to me that having a few friends, either from the UK or not, would help keep me motivated and would be helpful in exchanging food ideas and so on.
If you'd be willing to add me as a friend please get in touch!
Best wishes to everyone from a very chilly England.

Hi Koth,
I've been here since September and believe me it is such a motivating place. I've lost 3 and a half stones. I'm from Brum - don't let that put you off. I'll send you a friend request as I'll be around for a while cause this isn't all about weight its about learning to cope with a new lifestyle.

I'm fairly new to MFP (25 days today) but I've found it such a massive help already. After losing and gaining around 15 stones in the last decade, I know I can lose weight but I've also realised that I need someone or something to make me accountable for my lifestyle choices.
Feel free to add me as a friend, you can never have too many cheerleaders

There are loads of us here in the UK. I will add you as a friend. I found the site by accident when looking for a calorie counter app for my iPhone and I honestly believe I would not have been so successful without it.0
