Hi. Newbie here.......

Hello!
Although I've had mfp for a while, I just got back on the wagon at the beginning of last month. Lost 9lbs so far, so slow but steady, and already feeling better about myself. My aim is to lose about 4 stone, although "officially" I'm supposed to lose 6, but thats never gonna happen lol!!
Anyone who wants to add me please feel free :)

    I am the same height as you. I started out at 13 st 8lbs (pre MFP), I lost about 20 lbs just walking. Then i joined a gym, got assigned to a great trainer. He put a program together for me, the first few weeks i thought he was trying to kill me LOL. Then it got easier, then he tweaked the prgram and it got harder again, but this time i knew he wasnt trying to kill me ;) And so the cycle continued, I am now at 9st 2 lbs, BF% is at 23.3, i am working at getting it to 20% by introducing more weight training into my program.

    Feel free to add me, but note, I am not and never have been on a diet, i just try to be more aware of what i am putting in my body, therefore my diary will include wine, chocolate and the odd treat :)
