Newbie :)

Hi,

Thought I should come say "Hi" given that I am a complete Newbie here and still trying to find my way around. I am 27 (feeling 87) and have 121.5lb to lose to start with. This will take me to 154lb and I can then decide if I want to go slightly lower or not. Based on my height, my 'ideal' weight would be 126lb so I will have some leeway if I am not happy at my interim target. I follow a slimming plan anyway but have found that I do not have enough control over what I am eating, so I have followed a friends advice and started to count the calories based on what I normally eat. Fingers crossed this will give me the means to follow the plan properly (I know it works as I have already lost weight just by following it),but give me the control to lose the weight I should be losing.

Looking forward to finding my way around and doing the work the right way to get the losses I want :)

Lady Zo xx

    Hi.
    I was on my fitness pal for a while. But I kinda fall apart and ignored my whole fitness and diet plan. But I am back now. It's 2013! I want a new me, and I want to be perfect for myself. I am currently 123lb at 5'5'', and my goal is 105. So wish me luck. And add me as ur buddy :D
  • Support is so important on this journey! Add me as a pal! We are all in this together.

    Hi everyone! I joined today! I've been successful "dieter" but am interested now in changing my lifestyle. I recognize that much of this is about my choices and the compromises I have made with myself. I'm committed to losing the excuses, doing things for me and just plain telling people "no" when I want to. Anyways, could use some friends!

    My name is Hunter. I cuss a lot and talk about kinky sex even more. I did drink most weeknds but gave it up (damn it!) like yesterday. I am not the most supportive but I wont send you pics of my junk either (that costs extra). If that all sounds good I will accept all and any request.

    You had me at kinky sex. How much does a picture of your junk cost? Do you accept Paypal?
