    Hi

    I'm a Brit and been in the U.S. for 4 years. Since arriving here weight crept on and ended up being 30lbs overweight. I think weight gain down to getting used to HUGE portions they serve here and adding sugar to EVERYTHING.
    I joined weight watchers - just to get weighed once a week and that helped me lose 16lbs - now to address my last stone.
    I have just signed up for a 10k race in 10 weeks..ahhh..but it's a goal and thought it would help me loose the last 14lbs.
    I am here for support - think loneliness and being far way from home doesn't help sometimes so turn to food for comfort!
