Hi folks!

Hi,
I'm new too. Isn't this site great? i have a target loss of 55 pounds and I'd dearly love to achieve a good portion of that before July as I'm off to the South of France for a family holiday. French women are mostly very slim so last time I went I got funny looks off people , which was not nice I can tell you. I live in the UK so like most other Brits have a taste for chocolate, cheese, pastry, beer and wine...all the things that I'm going to have to radically cut down on. I'm a teacher with a high stress job and limited personal time so I really need help to maintain my motivation to stop comfort and convenience eating and find the time and self-discipline to exercise. Thank goodness spring has finally arrived in the UK, a bit of sun and longer days definitely help matters.
