Hi all - I'm from Sunderland but live abroad. I joined mfp last year and lost about a stone, then I gave up (as usual) and have joined again this week as I have my wedding dress to fit into, I purposely ordered it smaller so that I would make myself do it!0

Hey.
I'm from Northumberland (North East - 30 mins from Newcastle!)
I joined last year and lost 22lbs but then with some crap happening in my life and Christmas and indulging I gained 12lbs back!!!!! (Why did I do this to myself).
Anyway I'm back on it - New Year, New Me!!!! I starter Jillian Michael's body Revolution programme on Monday and hoping that I will see some good results with that.
good luck everyone on your journey. x0 -

Hi peeps,
Im from Sunderland originally - ive been living in Oxfordshire for the past 8 years but im 6 months pregnant with baby number 1 and moving back to Sunderland next month for at least my maternity leave and then maybe longer. I have been slowly picking away at my weight for years going from my heaviest at 15 stione 2 to my lightest at 12 stone. I was still down at 12 stone 8 mid 2012 but then I got pregnant and I have since gained 24lbs (although granted, some of that is the huge bump and boobs I now have).
I was using MFP until halfway through my first trimester when I started getting really sick and pretty much could only stomach crisps, chips, bread, ice cream etc - I just did not feel like logging all the crap I was eating so I stopped. Im now just in my third trimester and finally seem to be wanting to eat healthily again. Also a bunch of the girls on babycentre are on here and I have just added them and it has motivated me to start getting back on track now rather than waiting another 3 months. If I can go the rest of my pregnancy without gaining anymore weight I will be really happy as 24lbs is plenty to gain and I was already 30lbs overweight anyway.
Looking forward to being a yummy mummy in 2013! x0 -

Hi i'm from Leeds. I'm pretty new to this so everyone feel free to add me

Hi, I'm from North Yorks and have been on here since 17th May and have lost close to 3 stone (put a couple back on over Christmas but am back to logging now as it sure is a slippery slope! Happy MFP'ing everyone - it's a numbers game now and once you get your head round the science bit it's relatively easy.0

Good to see a lot of positivity here! As ever seeing the road as a long bumpy one and keeping goals realistic will help you succeed. Personally I like to set small short terms goals but its what works for you. Since hitting 13 1/2st now I want to get to 13 stone though in honesty Im not really hung up on weight more body composition. Just ordered some scales that include body fat though I know they are not the most accurate its really about tracking change.
Thought Id also share this little bit of inspiration as I liked it :
Don't wait for the light at the end of the tunnel, go hang one there yourself!0 -
Hi All,
Im from Leeds - joined MFP after seeing lots about it on a forum I use so when my wife and i decided that enough was enough and it was time for us both to loose weight thought I'd give it a try.
Everyone seems pretty friendly - I've got about 8 stone to lose so its going to be a long journey - but it will be so worth it. Everyone feel free to add me.0 -

Hi fellow Northerners! I've just joined up so I thought I'd introduce myself - I'm from mighty Manchester and the diet starts tomorrow!0

In Hartlepool here. Diet started..well portion control first then will focus more on the food types. Going well so far, lost 20+lbs in a few weeks.
Hoping I can drop weight, reduce strain on my legs so I can start riding motorbikes.0 -
