in Introduce Yourself
Hello all,

Been using LoseIt for a year now and have had some good results when the motivation's been there. Decided to move over to MFP as there's a phone app and all the foods I eat are already in a database.

So, about me... I'm just turned 36, live just over in Wales on the border with Shropshire, and would like to drop to 13st from the 13'10 I am currently. I play squash do a bit of running but really struggle to not eat rubbish! Work is stressful and there's often no time for a proper lunch which leads to snacking and guzzling when I get home from work.

I need to lose weight and get fitter so I can feel better in myself and set a better example to my two girls (3 and 6). Thinking of entering a few challenging activities for charity to try and motivate myself but could do with a few friends on here to help as well.
