Hi All :)

I am new in here and looking for friends and motivation in the journey to loose weight :)

I have always been overweight , but it never really bothered me... I have never been "friends" with vegetables, to the point where I was feeling sick if I was pushing myself to eat some, I know it was more psychological than really making me sick.

I have now decided to look after what I am eating and do more exercise as well! I am getting better with vegetables, there are always some that I don't like but I am getting there and able to have some for most of my meals :)

However I would love to find friends in the same boat for inspiration and motivation :)

Cheers,
Anne

    Hie Anne.

    we are pretty much in the same board. l have been overweight all my life though at times more overweight that others. I have done a number of crash diets which never work really, well l wild lose a few kgs which would come right back bringing a few more friends along when l started eating again. now l want to do it the proper healthy way which is not easy and requires patience and constant motivation.

    I have lost about 6kgs so far and l do few great.

    I hope we both have successful journeys

    cheers

    Hi Connie :)

    I have never been dieting before, and finally don't find it so hard, not as hard as I thought :) I decided to not go for the quick diet as I prefer changing my lifestyle and what I eat :)

    I am sure we are going to make it :) Slowly and surely :)

    I would love to find friends in the same boat as well :)
