    I suppose I should join in with the social side of this.

    Rich, 33 year old Birmingham resident who weighs far too much. I 'run' 5k+ three times a week and am planning to do the Brum half marathon (great Brum run) again without having to walk about 1/3 of it. I don't really have a weight goal..just less than now.

    Hi all,
    I'm Teresa, 43, from Kent. I joined mfp last Jan to lose a few pounds before my wedding in August, and managed just under a stone. Now concentrating on healthy eating, and trying to shift those last few stubborn ones.

    I have 2 teenage boys who eat like horses and stay skinny so find it hard with all the food around!

    Hi, I'm Heather, 43. I live in Nottingham but originally from Hertfordshire. I've lost over 7 stone with this site so far and have a few more to go. I'm taking no notice of BMI, I'll stop when I feel right rather than go by the number on a graph. Really enjoying my new found fitness and doing things I'd never have done two years ago.

    I'm 39, in sunny Norwich and got another 22 lbs to loose before I am in the healthy weight range. I eat fairly cleanly, but can struggle with binging on sugar (although I seem to be on the top of that for now) and have a love/hate relationship with the gym. I'll always prefer long walks along the coast. Feel free to add me ......

    Hi, 30 year old female. I have lost 22lbs in total through slimmingworld but I don't trust their "unlimited"portions so using my fitness pal to measure portion size and to add exercise too. I have 38lbs to go! Great app and great app and great community on here, good to find the Brita!! Feel free to add me!

    Hi I am a 33 year old, from Newcastle and mummy to two little boys and am hoping to loose weight so I feel happy around the pool come July for our holiday. I am calorie counting five days of 1600 cal and on two days limiting to 500 cal I work shifts all night shift so dieting when your body clock is out of sinc is a little hard. Feel free to add me especially if you are a shift worker like me so we can share ideas. Good luck everyone

    Hello ! I'm in sunny Wiltshire (well it's usually reasonably sunny!).

    I have done WW and SW so many times and, because I am quite shy around new people, I don't really get anything out of them, apart from disappointment and a hole in my finances ......

    I've been doing MFP since the start of Lent, and have been impressed with it - and since I have given up bread (for said Lent sacrifice) I have lost 7lbs .... whoop!

    My overall target is 4 stone but I am taking this on as a lifestyle change rather than a get thin quick fix.

    Nadine from London. I decided to lose weight properly this time and finding daily logging and exercise is really making a difference. I never thought I would enjoy 30 Day Shred and Ripeed in 30 DVDs. I also tried a kettlebell workout and loved it! Feel free to add me.

    Hi

    From kilwinning in Scotland. I have just had my 3rd baby, have 65lb to lose. Was on here prior to finding out I was pregnant and had lost over 3 stone but bad habits whilst pregnant put most of it back on!

    As I've just had my son 2 weeks ago I'm not hitting the gym or fitness dvd's yet, just started back up and healthy eating just now!

    Dave from Fife - doing MFP since 3rd March and trying to lose 1lb a week, sometimes 2 just happens! Swim 1hr most days and like that it gives me extra cal to consume. Trying to cut out sugar from choc, cakes biscuits and desserts. I find it hard to believe that an hours reasonably vigorous swimming gives me over 600 cal extra though I could eat a scabby horse when I finally drag myself out of the pool
