:happy: Hi all

I have tried dieting on countless occasions, bought DVDs, the Wii, a bike and countless exercise clothes all in a bid to encourage me to lose weight but to no avail. I have no will power and it is hard when you get into a routine. I hope with some encouragement from others in the same situation will help.

I have done this before and I can do it again :smile:

    Hello from London! :drinker:

    I agree with the guys above. It helps when you add a few people on here and reading success stories! Feel free to add if you like!

    I was from Wishaw originally and worked at Bell College for 6years before moving up to Aberdeen - small world!!!! A friend request would be great :-)

    Already sent! I got over-excited when I saw Aberdeen! I was worried you were going to say Aberdeen in the US though!
    I'm more of a Glasgow girl myself but I'm familiar with Wishaw and Bell College - my auntie taught there for a while actually! I really did not expect to see someone from Aberdeen on here!

    Welcome and good luck with your journey. Have you ever considered hypnotherapy? It was something I did as a last ditch desperate attempt and glad I did.
