    Jo from South Bucks

    I have been large as long as I can remember, but now have lost 17lbs. I have a LONG way to go, but this is the first time I have started to lose weight by my own choice and not as a reaction to 'life's winged spears' :).

    Hiya, im Mairi :) 43 and living in Buckinghamshire (although Im scottish!)
    Ive lost about a stone, and now focusing more on losing body fat than weight (have gone from 30% body fat in november to 17.4% now (March)
    Go to a personal trainer on a Monday and hit the gym during the week, need to get back in the swimming pool more and do some more walking. Want to lift weights with the boys in the gym! Favourite exercise is Lat Pulldowns :D I concentrate a lot on the right nutrition (without supplements) Feel free to add me..

    Hi, I'm Jo, 27 from Wiltshire. Just got back into MFP after a couple of years off. Now a mum to a cheeky 11 months old and back to working full time trying to lose all the baby weight I put on. (Though most of it happened after he was born)

    Hi, i'm Karen soon to be 42. Full time working mom with two kids aged 13 and 10.

    Have struggled with my weight since my teenage years and have had success over the years with Weightwatchers - my biggest loss was 51/2 stone.

    Have regained 3 of that 51/2 stone and am desperately trying to shed it via MFP and exercise.

    No medical reasons for weight issues - i'm just a greedy bugger who loves good food, red wine and is prone to binges :-( I swing from wanting to be slim and heatlhy to feeling sick to death of it all and trying to accept that I am what I am.

    Anyway. that's me!

    Hi I'm Tracey, I'm 41 and I live in Swindon, Wiltshire.

    I lost 30lb last year but after our wet winter and a lot of shorter dog walks I gained some winter weight so currently trying to get back to my lowest target weight of 10 1/2st.

    Anyone can feel free to add me if you want.

    Cheers!

    Hi all :)

    I'm 45, have 4 kids; one that's left home, 2 about to leave school and 1 about to start! I recently became singe too.

    I've struggled with my weight as long as I can remember - even dieting at school - but I'm fed up of it now. I'm doing better but I still have nights where I get low and binge :( I'm trying to walk more (I don't like exercise) which is a bit easier now the weather is improving.

    I live close to Wolverhampton

    Hi all!

    I'm 26 from Surrey, travelled a bit and tried a lot of different foods - a lot - but now I'm back in Surrey/London area for awhile I'm trying to push off the pounds I put on. I've actually been on here for a year but haven't really used the site until now, thought I'd say hi and chat to people who might have some hints and tips :)

    Add me if you're in the area or just want people to chat to about dieting and stuff. I'm a self-styled amateur professional at it now (which means I have no qualifications and only anecdotal evidence to base my suggestions on) but I like to think I make it fun :D

    Managed to hit my weight target some time ago but unfortunately I've gained some after I lost motivation and was eating carelessly. I'm looking for some friends to help keep me motivated so feel free to add me! :)
