in Introduce Yourself
Hi Everyone,
Been playing with this site for a week now so thought it high time I introduced myself!
I'm Julie, married with 1 son at Uni and 2 cats and 3 ferrets.
Work full time in sales and love it.
My story is after countless diets and plans over the years that really never did anything I decided enough was enough so in May last year I embarked on a meal replacement plan - All About W8.
Best thing I ever done! Got totally zoned into it and from May to September I dropped at least 3 dress sizes and lost 47lb.
Now in healthy BMI and looking to lose just a few more pounds to give me a leeway on special occasions and holidays.
Fully immersed in the 'Food Doctor' plans and books which promote regular eating and low carb lifestyle.

So I am tracking on this site (which is totally amazing by the way) to help me with the long term. Losing weight is fairly easy - it's the maintenance after that you need to work on!

So hello from me - feel free to friend request me - if there is anything you want to know just ask!

Julie.xx:smile:

    Hiya

    Welcome and good luck with finding your maintenance zone. I always have trouble with that , hence I'm regularly re-acquainting myself with this site!

    Send tips when you're successful :)

    Hi Julie and welcome.

    Ive been on this site on/off for a year - just trying to get back into the swing of things !! I am in the South (Hampshire) and sunny here today after all the rain last night.

    I am jealous that you have ferrets, always wanted one but never have, maybe one day. I currently have 1 dog and 3 cats (am willing to exchange 1 dog for 3 ferrets lol)

    Good luck with the site, sounds like you have done very well !

    Hi Julie,

    Nice to see someone else here from the UK. I'm originally from North Devon myself but living in Hampshire now.

    Wish you all the best with you targets and goals
