New British friends!

Hi,

I'm looking for a crew of intelligent, sarcastic, motivational Brits for general cheerleading. I had a long break and lost a lot of friends and would like to restock my pile of folk to say nice things to me, and who I can steal meal ideas from.

I eat mostly unprocessed and homecooked food, am currently doing Ripped in 30 after 30DS and live in West Sussex.

So please add me if you think you could be part of my excellent clan. (BTW I'm not refusing friend requests from the US, but am hoping for people in the same time zone, who have food entries I recognise!)

Kate

    I will throw you for a loop then. I am British but I live in the US! lol.
    Originally from Yorkshire, now live in Las Vegas.
    I have 3 kids just finished up college and returned to work as a physio (British terms).
    Im on a mission to loose 70lbs, been back it seriously for about 3 weeks. Hired a trainer and was mortified to watch my weight go up (muscle build I guess) and at last it is finally coming back down!

    I'm also looking for some new friends, for motivation and with similar food habits. I'm British but live in France where we try to live the 'good life', growing a lot of our own food. Like you, I mostly eat food I've prepared myself and little in the way of processed stuff. As you'd expect, I do a lot of gardening so that's my main exercise. With all the physical work and fruit and veg, I should be super lean but sadly, having lost 10kg, I've still got about 12kg to go. I will know when I've got to the right weight when my size 14 jeans are an easy fit.

    Hi Kate,

    Feel free to add me!

    I'm from Cardiff, follow 5:2 (don't let that scare you!) and try and move as much as I can.

    I cook from scratch as much as I can but have one hell of a sweet tooth which I'm trying to keep in check

    Add away! :-)

    I'm in the North East of England and have been on MFP since August. Ultimate goal is to lose 100lbs and so far I've lost 23lbs. My food diary is open and I'm on here everyday so always around for support. Anyone can feel free to add me. Can't promise intelligent conversation all of the time .....well any of the time actually...... :laugh:

    Hey!!

    I'll tell you why you should add me :

    1 - Daily Logger and Open Diary
    2 - talk and talk and talk and talk (infact you probably will want to slap me by the end of the week )
    3 - I've lost 83llbs and turned into a fitness nut so i'll motivate your *kitten*!!
    4 - I'm pretty awesome ( just ask my current friends )
    5 - I eat Big Macs, kebabs and Nutella LOADS and still lose weight!
    6 - I'm awesome lol but I guess I already said that! ( potentially narcissistic too ) but hey nobody's perfect!
    7 - I drink Tequila like its water
    8 - I like to post angry rants about food that has truly upset me by being an epic failures when I've sooo looked forward to eating them!
    9 - I'm a Scot ( the drinking bit probably gave that away though lol)

    But in all seriousness though, its easier to lose the weight when surrounded by a great bunch of people because my friends kick my *kitten* every day and it spurns me on! I'll do that for you!

    Take Care and have a drink on me! :drinker:
