Hi, I'm Sharon, I live in Oxfordshire in the UK and I have a lot to lose! I've tried before but always give up a couple of weeks in. I'm not scared of hard work (well, not always anyway) but I work full time (and do a lot of overtime) and also care for my husband who has bipolar so I don't always have time for me...which I do know I also use as an excuse some times.

I've looked back and the one thing I've always lacked is support. I can't bring myself to talk about my weight with friends or family (I'm sure they'd be supportive, but I'm acutely embarrassed of of weight so I can't actually get the words out. I'm hoping to meet some new friends, in the hope we can support each other!

I know we all have different amounts to lose, and live different lifestyles, but we all face our own challenges and I'd like to be there to help someone through theirs :)

    I sent you a request :) Support is such an important thing, especially with struggles towards bettering yourself.

    Hi Ashley,

    Thank you so much! I've tried and can't do it without the support so it means a lot :)
