    Hi Kev, good luck with your weight loss. If it were easy then we would all be stick thin but it ain't. Sites like this help especially when there is a good community.

    And a big warm hello from sunny Reigate in Surrey! I've been doing this for a month or so, so still a newbie, but it has made me rethink what eat and take more exercise!

    Hey Kev,

    A 41 year old originally from Chatham (so good they named it once) here.

    Emigrated to Brisbane over 7 years ago, found MFP by chance and have been enjoying using it to track and tweak my nutrition :)

    Brisbane, QLD? That's weird. I emigrated from Brisbane to the UK 16 years ago.
  • Hiya I have had this app on my phone for a while I was sceptical what it could do. Now I can't do with out it and having the added bonus of being part of a supportive community is the low calorie icing on the cake :-)). Free to add.

    The sun was definitely out in Kent today, after a wet, wild and windy night.

    Hi from East Sussex! Apparently this is the sunshine coast....

    I've been on MFP for 150 days now and love it!
