22 yr old Female. Started at 12 Stone, want to be 9 1\2.

Hey everyone.
I created a MFP account about a year or so ago but didn't start using it properly until about 3 weeks ago.
So far it says i have lost 4 lbs but in fact i have lost a stone as i had put on alot of weight over the summer without logging.
I have another stone and a half before i reach my target weight.
Im very determined but thrive on positive reenforcement and motivation.
I really want to get into this and not loose track like i did last time so feel free to friend me :)
Daniella xoxo

    I rate you at a 9.6/10. We shall become friends.
  • That's a big drink you're holding
  • congratulations on your weight loss so far.
    I just started doing this and so far I am very impressed by the community as a whole.

    Feel free to add me if you'd like as I could use all the support I can get and I will be there for you as well.

    Have a great day.

    Haha the extra stone i added probably came from that drink tbh.
  • Just a question to FitBeto:
    If she was rated lower would you not add her as a friend?
    just wondering.....

    I think MFP is incredible and the support network is just unreal. Love it !

    Daniella,

    You don't have a bad angle, dear. You're a very beautiful woman. Though, I can relate to your concerns. I work full time, am getting my Master's degree, and frankly, sometimes life is just fast and loose. I stopped drinking alcohol several years ago. I just got "too old" for partying and alcohol IMO. But I still continue to struggle with the way that I eat. I do good a lot of the time but when I jump ship I REALLY jump ship. I've been doing that to myself recently.

    My wall is a judgement free zone. Feel free to add.

    Love that huge drink :drinker:

    I'm just under 12 stone now and want to be around 10 and a half.

    I'm not a student sadly, been there and done that, now a secondary school teacher.

    Feel free to add me.

    This is making me feel so positive about it all. I actually believe i can reach my goals this time and that its not some dream that i might one day not be scared to wear a bikini. :)
    Much love to the MFP community. WE CAN DO IT !!!!
  • Just stick to it and think your dream body! always helps me!

    Just be careful on posting that bikini shot here, you might give some of us old guys heart attacks. BTW, how much is a stone?

    Haha i tell myself "Dream body" every time i do spinning. its horrendous but the most amazing thing for me i think.
    A stone is 14lbs i think.
