in Introduce Yourself
I have just started today 7th January 2012 in my weight loss mission :-) last year i lost 12.7kg in 30 days but it must of been too fast because i am worse off now as i have put on the weight plus some!! :-( I am an endomorph and always looking for advice etc from similar body typed people. I am looking to promote lean muscle tissue to burn body fat. I am currently doing a low carb diet and my eating habits have really changed for the better, I am also doing cv at home and planks also lifting dumbbells at the gym :-) Hit me with a friend request if you want to witness a 'FAT to FIT story' im gonna smash this!!!!!!!!!

Take care everyone

    Wow wasn't expecting a lot of people from UK/Scotland Cheers for all the reply's guys :-) Keep an eye on me and give me that kick up the behind if i need it lol i would like to hear of all the dieting and excercise routines of others as it will inspire me to try different things! Im not one for cardio but i know as an endo i have got to include this to my routine and i usually do interval training either at the gym or at home as i feel it burns more fat without losing muscle.

    Hi, im from Scotland too, but i suppose you could tell that by my username, haha. Its a lot harder to lose weight when the weather is always crap, but i'm sure we can all do it. Good luck to all of you on your weight loss journey.

    Hi from just outside Edinburgh, always looking for Scottish friends so feel free to add. Been on this since September 2011 and reached my goal in April last year (although I have gained around 3 pounds over the festive period which will be going soon!), I still log to maintain and support friends.

    Not from Scotland, but of descent. My grandfather was 2nd or 3rd generation Stuart here in the US. The country is someplace I have always wanted to see. Some day.... Welcome to MFP! This is a great place and you will find lots of support!

    Hello! Another fellow scot here.

    I'm sitting in my cold car having grabbed 5 minutes to eat my lunch, listening to the torrential rain of Lanarkshire whilst eating a rubbish brown salad roll! Not feeling very motivated today :-(

    I'm not from Scotland, but my son and his wife live in Aberdeen. I have visited twice in past 4 years. In fact my cover picture was taken in Scotland. Wow! beautiful country. Wouldn't mind living there. I'm working on counting calories and portion control versus fad diets. Have been very successful in past, but let eating get away due to family illnesses and other issues. Wish you the best in your weight loss endeavors.
