Hi everyone,

I am 25 years old and from the UK. I joined MFP a few weeks ago but have only really started doing it properly today. I would love some friends on here to get encouragement and motivation from, and also to be able to help with encouragement etc back!

My weight has always been an issue, but I have really struggled with it since moving in with fiance (now husband!) 3 years ago. I have been trying to loose weight since January 2011 and had to work really hard to get 1.5 stone off which took me a year and a half. Since then I have put it all back on, fortunately not more, but nothing fits (again!). Keeping myself motivated is a challenge, my willpower is not great but I know that I really need to get a handle on this!

Please feel to add me, any support is very appriciated
:smile:

    Feel free to add me, I can't garantee that I will post directly to you every day, but I do check diaries, and provide motivation as I can... And appreciate the same from my friends.

    Welcome and best of luck!:drinker:

    Welcome to MFP. Good job taking another step to get where you want to be. I have been on MFP for about 1 1/2 years and I love it. Feel free to add me as a friend. Good Luck!!

    Feel free to add me. I am also from the UK & I remember well putting on a lot of weight when I was first married (13 years ago now!). With a bit of support it is amazing what you can achieve. How much are you looking to lose?
  • Thank you for the replies so far! I am looking to loose between 60 - 80 pounds, I weigh 221 at the moment
  • Feel free to add me. You can do this!
  • Feel free to add me as well. I am in the USA but I am in need of encouraging friends on here!
