    I'm from Bristol, I'm 5ft 1in, hoping to go from 142lbs to 120 - much prefer to have British friends as they're buying their foods in the same places and eating / finishing their days at the same time. So feel free to add me!

    THIS :)

    Recently moved to Essex from Canada and adjusting to new foods and brands at the moment.
    Always enjoy having new friends on MFP

    I'm from the UK too! Liverpool :D

    I'm just trying to lose about 5lbs and tone up, so might end up re-gaining with muscle weight, but I'm also hoping to reduce my body fat (especially around my tummy!) . I rejoined the gym yesterday and can't wait to get back into some cardio and weights.

    Hi,
    I'm from the dark side too, just outside Liverpool (St Helens).

    Been on here about 6 weeks and i'm addicted already and have lost about 4kg just by being aware of what i'm consuming, also by replacing calories burned through exercise with good calories to repair and strengthen.

    Good luck with your goals !!!!!!

    Tim

    The dark side....Love it lol ;-)
    Its very addictive but more to the point very supportive.
    You have been on here same time as me, and are doing well.
    i agree with you on how aware you become of what you consume and how that goes a long way to helping.
    God have i been shocked by some of the calorie values in some foods lmao.

    Keep up the good work x

    Hello :smile: ,
    I'm from Stevenage In Hertfordshire, I'm trying to loose weight because I need yet more Surgery on my foot. After seeing photos of me at my sons wedding and seeing aunties and uncles at a recent family get together I decided I was not gonna be one of them, I also have a 3 year old grand son, and don't want him to remember me as "fat". I need to loose about 4 stone and am really struggling at the moment with the exercise but I will do this I am determined to,

    Hi, I'm from Ascot and last year managed to lose 22lbs with MFP! Have found the weight starting to creep up again, so am back logging to lose 7lbs before hols, so that I can eat and drink without worry! Have used other sites like MFP, but find this is the best for finding UK foods and quantities!

    Keep logging - it really does work!

    Totally agree...Logging everything you eat and drink on here really does work ;-)

    I have just found this site today and am really excited by everyone's comments. I live in Lechlade but originally from Swindon and would love to have a team of online friends to get me through my ups and downs of trying to get fit. This is going to be so inspirational and I've got a feeling that I'm going to succeed this time......would love to have some people to share this with x

    Im glad you have found this site, you wont regret it,. best ive ever found,
    Info on the dtatbase is outstanding and the support from friends on here is great.

    MFP + FRIENDS = SUCCESS
