    Hi there,

    I'm in Glasgow and need to lose about the same amount as you. Been using the site since last July and have lost 17lbs so far (had lost more but some went back on over Xmas). I'll send you a friend request.

    Cheers

    Hi!

    I live in Newcastle upon Tyne, North East. Have a total of 3 stone to lose but just reached my midway point recently, have been using the site since August so it's coming off slowly but heard thats the best way to lose and means greater chances of being able to maintain at my goal weight if lost slowly.... not sure how true that is though!!

    It can be done and I wish you well on your journey. The combination of the app, website and MFP members makes for a great helping hand!

    If you want a friend for support feel free to add me! :flowerforyou:

    Hi everyone,
    I'm not new to this site but new to posting on it's forum. Feeling a bit lost right now, but I'm sure I'll find my way around.
    I actually came across these posts while I was looking for a way to ask if any one knows why I can't sync my iphone to the web .... it's always done it before, but has just stopped.

    Anyhow, while I'm here, i may as well introduce myself. My name is Sheila, I live in West Sussex, I'll be 60 this year, and my goal is to be fit and healthy. I'd like to lose around 7 lbs. I'm taking part in this years London Marathon......and the most I've ever run before was for a bus!!
    I'm looking forward to gettring to know others here.

    Wow, you're doing the marathon? That's amazing. I am planning on doing Race For Life in July, it's only 5k but it's a start.

    Hi Laura...yep, I must be mad, but it's one of things I've always fancied having a go at. I'm hoping all the exercise will help me shed a few more pounds.
    Good luck with your 'run for life....!'!
