Looking for some UK Friends 4 support

Options
Hello, my name is Wendy, Im 49 years old and I’m hoping to lose around 37lb. I’ve tried lots of different diets including Weight watchers and Slimming world classes with yo yo results, but I have to say: I find it harder to lose weight now as I’ve gotten older, also it don’t help that im only 5ft tall!

My daughter Claire (user name: noble1987) has been using this web site for the last few months and has successfully lost 11lbs so far, along with learning a better knowledge of living a healthy life style in general. Now she swears by it and has encouraged me to give it a go! :tongue:

I’m looking to become friends a few more people of similar age who can provide me backing support, tips and general encouragement to keep me on the horses back!

Please add me as a friend, I’d love to hear from you.

Thanks a lot

Wendy (mummykin) x :heart:
mum of Claire (noble1987)

    I'm not the same age as you (I'm 31) but I'll send you a friend request. Your daughter is already one of my 'friends' (in the online sense). This is a great site, you'll do just fine on here :-)
