newbie

Hi everyone , i have tried many diets and recently came across mfp thought i would give it a try as i could really do with the motivation , help and support from others. I am 5ft 4 and weigh around 180lbs. Not sure exactly as i don't have scales yet . Anyway im just healthy eating cutting out takeaways junk and fizzy juice and exercising everyday. Would love if someone could add me and support and help one and other.

    Just cutting down on huge portions, cutting out snacking between meals, booze & fizzy pop. I joined a gym and do some sort of exercise most days. I am also just about to finish C25K and ran my 1st 5k today in 38minutes!

    I have been away on holidays, weekends off for birthdays, meals out etc through it all so havnt been deprived at all. I have done all sorts of diets in the past and lost weight but gained most of it back once I stopped so this time have completely changed my way of life along with a healthy eating system. There is no way Im going back to how I was before I started! I still have a way to go yet but I WILL get there....:)

  • Well done on the 5 k that's great . That's what in doing aswell i feel as soon as you stop these diets it all piles back on and more. IM determined this time to lose it to be healthy for my kids. Thanks for the adds.

    Hi, we have a 9 month old and I can sympathize how hard it can be to try this at this life stage. Yeah, even though I am a guy ;)
  • GD to hear people r doing so well . IM really unwell just now so not been eating much which i suppose is better than eating loads but hopefully feel better soon and can get into a proper eating and exercise routine:)
