Hi there guys,

I'm yet again fed up of being unhappy with my body, and yet again trying to start to lose weight again.

I'm mainly looking for support and advice, I've never really involved anyone else with my weight loss before and perhaps that's why I'm failing!

I'm from London, I'm 20 years old, I weigh 163lbs as of this morning. I'd love a weight loss buddy at similar stats but to be honest I'd love someone to just check in on me occasionally too!

    You need to change your name as you're defeating yourself before you start. You made a good decision to get healthy. Take it one moment at a time. This is a great site and we can help you, but only you can make the choice to use our advise and encouragement. You CAN do this!

    Hi hun,

    I'm in London too. Joined a few days ago. We can support each other. Going to need all the help I can get with it being the party season and wine and food around every corner! What is your goal weight? Are you doing any exercise?

    I'm hoping to shift about 7 pounds. Not a great deal but I'm hoping to lose as much of it as I can before the end of December!

    I have a great set of friends on MFP and it was the best thing I did.

    Different people work differently - maybe for her it's what she needs to inspire her to make it work this time?

    I certainly don't work in the same way as many do as far as 'motivation' goes.

    I started at 183, so quite a bit heavier. Down to 144 now though :) You can do it, you need to get more positive! Not believing in yourself is destining failure.
