Hello. My name is Loch. I am 27 years old and I'm fat.

Since I turned 20, I have been slowly blowing up like a balloon.

I'm sick of it. I'm done with it.

My doctor and a dietician have advised me that my problem isn't food, so much as exercise, or lack thereof. So I am going to try to get more of that. I might even get a job.

It would be very nice to have some friends to support me, and who I can also support in return.

Look forward to meeting some new people. Give me your stories. Add me as a friend so we can witness each others success!

    Food is the problem.

    People CAN lose weight without exercise.

    You CAN'T out exercise a bad, poor diet/overeating.

    Interesting doctor.

    You have made the right move by joining MFP. Last year I lost 26 kilos in 6 months using the online tools. This year unfortunately I have had a wee slip up and put on some of the weight I had lost, so I am back on here starting afresh and raring to go.
    Please feel free to add me on here. We all need support from friends new and old.
