in Introduce Yourself
Hey there :)
I'm Jeanne, and I've only just joined here but I'm really excited to be a part of this great community. I'm looking for motivation to lose weight and increase my fitness - in a month and a half I'm starting university and I'd be keen to shed a few kilograms and be ready for any challenges university life has to offer. I've been semi-dieting in the past month, but I'm lacking motivation - especially when I get run down from work. I don't know if this is the right place to ask (please let me know if there is some other topic) but I'd really love a pen pal to communicate with in regards to health, fitness and weightloss. I'd really appreciate the extra support and encouragement and I'm more than willing to return it. Thanks guys!
Jeanne xx

    Water is so good for you - I struggle with drinking it though - I can barely manage to gulp down half a cup at a time, but I'm getting there! I think it's fantastic that you're ditching the soda though - it will be working wonders for you, as you'll see soon :)
    Start off slow and you'll get there!! :) Slow progress is better than no progress :P
