I know exactly how you feel. I had to close my business 18 months ago and time spent at home meant time eating. I was already overweight but this only compounded the problem.

There is a good group on here and they will definitely help you make the right progress as they have with me.

I'm not sure where to make a ticker though it should be under 'profile' . To add it to your posts go to message board - settings.

Cheers,

Hello

I am 33 years old and am in south east too. I have over 100lb to lose and log in every day. I sometimes see people with personal trainers making them run about, throw tires and do lots of jumping etc.... Too scary for me but well done

Feel free to add me

hi everyone. My journey started back on the 1st of january, i set myself a rediculously had challenge starting dieting, runnning and stopping smoking all on the same week.
At first i couldnt even run for 30 second without feeling like my lungs were going to fall out of my chest. I can now do a steady 3k and am happy with that, i have done 5 before including race for life but i find it a bit too much.
weight loss started of really well loosing 30 lb in the first 80 day then everything just stopped, for the next 3 months i just fluctuated between the same 5 lb, and obviously everything paid the price, in the end i stopped completly, and stopped watching both my calories and excericing. i took a month off with the hope that it would kick start my effort and weight loss.
So here i am continuing on my journey and willing to share with anyone who wants. and to be honest ive still a long way to go.

Hi all im 109 days in to my current weight loss campaign after a life time of excuses. Im looking better and feeling better so if I can help anyone else it would be my pleasure.

I'm down in Dorset, 29 years old and a mum of a one year old and a two year old. I'm trying to lose all the weight I put on whilst pregnant with them both! I have nearly hit my target but am hoping to lose another few pounds afterwards and for once in my life be slim, healthy and fit!

I'm getting really into my running - I do a lot at the gym and loads of walking with the kids.

Always looking for fellow fit-buddies to motivate and share journeys with so please feel free to add

Hi Caroline,

You should be able to create a ticker by going to the bit at the top where it says "Hi (Username)" and then in there it should give you the option to create a progress ticker.

Feel free to add me.

Oh, and although I do have ticket set to show in my posts (I've double checked the settings), it isn't

I've recently returned aboard the wagon. Using my GPS watch for runs and walks with Strava. I have crappy days too, Sunday (yesterday) shows it.
I'm also not massively concerned about the macros at the moment although on my good days I'm not doing so bad.

Hi, I've got a lot of weight to lose and have started to try and sort it out (again! ) I would love some more UK based friends, although I enjoy meeting people all over it would be nice totalk to people in the same time zone!

Hi, I've just joined up today, am in the North West. I'll leave my diary open and you're welcome to add me if you would like to. I chose my username as a laugh, as it was one of my favourite phrases as a child and then I remembered the perfect 'hangover' picture that I had taken to send to my boyfriend. I'm not miserable.. honest ..
