New from the UK

Hey, I've just signed up as I've started a mainly plant-based diet and have been finding it hard to monitor calorie intake.

Great app and people here seem really supportive and friendly so far :)

    I can't help with the vegan part of things but I know there are quite a few around on the boards.
    Welcome to MFP from a UK'er too. :)

    Good luck with your dieting/fitness.
  • Thank you!

    Hello! I am not from the UK - I am from the USA - but my hubby is from Shropshire. We live in Denmark and we pop over to the UK all the time. I am mainly vegetarian and I used to be vegan, so if you have any questions or need any tips about recipes or anything, let me know! It is almost impossible to be veggie here in DK without going hungry at restaurants and friends' houses, but we are moving back to the UK and it will be easier there. Welcome and good luck! If you stick to MFP it WILL WORK!
  • Ah you get all the lovely weather in Kent, lucky you!

    I live in Newcastle but born and raised in Manchester, I'm a manc by heart :)

    Bolton is lovely, I hope it stays sunny for you. I'm sure you know what Manchester is like for rain...
