Hi,
My name is Samantha and i come from sunny Wales in the uk.!
Today is Day 1 of traking my weight. I'm 30, 5'2 and just over 10 stone ( 145lbs ) so i want to shed about 20lbs. I have never tracked my weigh or focussed on what i eat (and how much wine i drink!) or bothered to exercise so i have my fingers crossed and hopefully the determination to stick to it. Then i can focus on giving up smoking hopefully because of my new 'exercise regime'
Well there it is, it's official here i go!!

Hello from South Wales.

Hi Samantha,
I'm here because I stopped smoking 3 weeks ago and am petrified about putting on weight. I'm a healthy weight now that I'm happy with but in the past when I have tried to stop smoking I have put on weight and then started back on the cigs to get rid of the weight again. I'm determined not to do this this time - I want to stop for good. So, I'm trying to be really aware of what I eat and am trying to exercise - something I haven't done for about 15 years!! Feel free to add me as a friends, lots of the diet diaries on here are from the US including products we can't get, bit frustrating at times!
Lots of luck
