edited September 2024 in Introduce Yourself
Hi, thought I'd start a new thread to introduce myself. I'm 29 from the UK, have always struggled with my size and decided I needed to do something about it now. I have recently started a list of things to do before I'm 30 ,next year, One of them is to lose 30lbs in 6 months, My long term goal is to lose 66lbs in a year. I look forward to trading tips and getting to know more of you along the way. Any support you can offer is greatfully accepted.

Looking forward to posting some before and after pics when i've lost enough to notice a difference lol

    This is a great site! I was on Weight Watchers for 1 1/2 years then plateaued for 3 months. I decided that the new points system wasn't doig it for me (stopped counting fruits and veggies as points). I was eating a lot of them in additiont o the points they were giving me. I stopped loosing weight. Now I've been on here for 2 weeks and have lost 3 lbs! I love the community and topics ppl post here. WELCOME!

    Hiya and welcome. Like yourself I'm 29, I'm from N Ireland, I have also decided the extra 21lbs has to go before the big 30! Good luck with your journey and feel free to add me.:smile:

    I'm 29 too trying to lose the weight before the big 30! I did weight watchers too, but wasn't a big fan of the new system. MFP is way better and free :D Can't beat that!

    I'm 28 and am getting close to the 30 and want to shed the extra weight before that. I'm also getting married next March (I'm30 in the May so just squeezed in there before the big 30) so want to feel good and have self-confidence for the first time ever! :)

    Hey, another 29 year old from the UK here! I'm 30 next year, and new to this site. I am hoping that like-minded individuals will help motivate me!
