    Hi there... I am in Belfast, but this NI discussion group seems pretty quiet.

    How are you all getting on with the weight loss?

    Just joined yesterday but been trying to be "good" since just after Christmas.
    Now trying to ramp up the exercise as well as not drinking and eating healthly.

    Only problem is there are still lots of sweets around the house!!!

    Good luck to everyone and hope you all achieve your targets

    My tip for leftover xmas sweets:
    1. Invite nieces and nephews round
    2. Let them raid your cupboards
    3. Give them back to their parents.

    Problem solved

    Hello from me.

    I'm in Belfast, even though I'm only visiting.
    Although that visit has lasted a year so far and has at least another year to go.

    On the diet a week so far.

    The scales say I have lost 3kg this week. Hard to believe but well impressed. Im sure it wont be as much every week but going to keep at it

    Sorry to hear you have the flu Gillian. Best to give yourself time to recover and then you can pick up where you left off.
    Try some chicken soup and dont worry about the exercise.
    Hope you get well soon :-)

    lost 4.5lbs last week, but I imagine the first week is a lot of water loss. So we'll wait and see what this Wednesday's weigh in brings. Can't wait for the lighter evenings to allow me to get out on my bike, new helmet purchased this week.

    One more thing, get down to JJB at sprucefield, their closing down sale is on and gymwear is going at an absolute steal!!

    Hi everyone,
    I've just joined this group and i'm looking for new supporting friends. I used to live in NI, currently in Glasgow but will be back to NI in couple weeks for good so I was thinking that maybe "local" moral and virtual support will help me a little bit with my struggle
    If you would like to become my MFP friend feel free to add me and check my profile (If not thats's ok, no worries, I wont be offended).

    Hi - I live in Newtownabbey and would be very happy to have some local friends. I joined way last year and fell off the wagon big time so here I am again. Determined! Big family wedding in August and I AM NOT going to be the "fat one" in the photos. If you would like to, please add me as a friend.
    Thank you :)
