Hey, new member here from England

Hello everyone.

My name is Rachael, I'm a 22 year old identical twin, forensic science masters student, vegetarian, and I'm from England :smile:

Just signed up because trying out the Slim Fast diet but it's difficult to keep track of what I'm eating or the calories being consumed.

I love how easy it is to use this website in order to do that :heart:

My aim is to lose enough weight to fit into clothes much better. I'm a pear shape and I find it difficult to find jeans that don't make me look more pear shaped and tops that make me look even more flat chested than I already am :grumble:
Anyone else have this issue?

    Hey,

    I'm doing an MA in Leeds, in an arts subject i'm afraid :tongue:

    And I'm not a pear shape...i'm just an all over fat distributing machine.

    I'll be your friend if you'll have me :smile:

  • Hi Rachael I am Ian from Derby. I have only been on here for about 2 weeks but it is looking good so far. It gives me the discipline I am lacking

    I have the same problem, so I'm really looking forward to summer and being able to wear dresses again :)

    hey rachel,

    I am from just outside London, good on you for taking up the challenge, i am also trying to lose weight (in my early 20's ) and this site has worked wonders as it really is an eye opener with regards to calorie intake and even intake of high sugar and carbs. Good luck, you can add me for motivation and support :)

    Hey, I'm in Durham! I'm slightly pear shaped too - I get around it by wearing frilly skirts. :)
  • S'up! I just joined less than a week ago and I'm from Nottingham :) I'm studying Human Nutrition here at uni, I'm 20 years old and most decidedly not a vegetarian, but I'm friendly and love to give advice and support! :D xx
