Hi there, my name's Eloise. I have just joined this website today as I feel I really need to do something about my weight. I am at my heaviest at the moment and would like to lose around 3 stone ideally. I have always struggled with my weight, I have never been a big eater, it's more exercise and bad genes with me! I previously lost 6 stone a few years back but being depressed and going on to anti depressants last year meant that the weight slowly started creeping back on again and I had no motivation to do anything. I would like to start exercising on a daily basis and as much as I have always eaten pretty healthily I do need to cut down on chocolate and cakes as I have a very sweet tooth! I am off the tablets now and feel in a much more happy place but I just need to shift the weight. I would love to talk to other people on here for tips and ideas, and just for some extra motivation really.

If anyone would like to add me, feel free! :)
