    37 NW QLD, 21kg to go if you want to add me......

    And to the 18 year old above, are you really sure you want to drop to 40kg at 155cm tall??? I am 156cm and the ideal body weight is NOT 40kg.....

    Dear Marceline,

    I am the mother of a daughter who is the courageous survivor of anorexia nervosa. My beautiful girl almost died with a BMI higher than the one you are aiming for. If you achieve your goals you will likely be very, very sick. That sickness may damage your body and your brain so severely you may not recover.

    I remember the days when my daughter was acutely ill. Life was a nightmare for my girl - for all of us. Sweetie, please, please rethink your goals. If you suspect you are eating disordered, please tell your mum or dad and ask them to help you find help.

    With very much love,

    Jane

    Hi guys,

    I'm Eliza and from Sydney. I have been here almost two months and lost over 5 kilos. I have logged everyday since I have joined. History has shown I will usually derail on the 3 month mark so I will love to feel obligated to stay on track through friends. I am almost at my goal weight but my body fat percentage is still saying I am over weight so that is my focus now rather than the scale. Feel free to add me

    Hi Jane,
    I would love to be your buddy. I am in the UK so obviously there is a time difference, I feel we could really support each other with our emotional eating. Please add me as a friend

    Kind regards
    Donna
