UK Based MFP'ers?

edited November 8 in Health and Weight Loss
So I've been going on MFP for on an off for a year, but this time since 1st November with more determination than ever.

I would really like to have some more UK based friends as well, to see and be inspired by what other people do in their calorie allowance and with their food - so I can sneak some ideas for new meals as I am getting a bit bored of my staples....

Feel free to add me! I log daily, the more the merrier ;)

    Generally quite good at logging but had a couple of bad weeks travelling and eating too much.
    Need to lose another 15kg or so

    London. Started in 2012 and lost 20kg in 9 months. Then paused for a bit, came back that autumn and lost a little more, but then gained a little while marathon training which was fine. Restarted in September this year and think I have probably cracked it with 5-6kg lost already. I've dropped sugar intake ( took my allowance down to 60g and make sure fruit is most of that ) and boosted fat and protein vs carbs. Roughly 40F:25P:35C ratio. Think the vivofit has helped too, as the MFP walking calorie burns are a bit optimistic. I eat 1750 net and have 1-2 days off logging per week to live a little.

    32 year old 5'8 female here from Cumbria. I'm about 154 lbs currently. I have about a stone to lose after putting a bit on. I kept up with my exercise though so still quite fit. Just need to get back into a routine with my weights and I'll be back in all of my old clothes in no time. I log daily and have an open diary but don't always have time to comment if I'm at work due to my long shifts but other than that I'm here if any of you want to add me

    Londoner here. I'm currently eating at maintenance (eating at TDEE) but will be doing a cut of 15% starting in January (don't care about weight but want to lose a bit more body fat while maintaining my muscles). I'm doing the Stronglifts 5x5 (just started back up) and C25K programme, as well as play hockey (I'm a goalie).

    Just a warning to anyone who wants to add me, I'm against under-eating and 1200 calorie diets - I will give you *kitten* if you try to eat at too big a deficit. I'm part of the Eat More 2 Weigh Less group and so I'm all about eating as much as you can while losing weight. I'm currently eating 2300 calories for maintenance (my TDEE_ and will do TDEE-15% for my cut.

    In Wales here, prob going for half a stone more. Feel free to add too :)

    If you are tiny, slow moving and older like me I will never give you a hard time for netting 1200 ... My TDEE is only 1660 so I totally get it lol! ;)

    In London. Lost the weight and got very near to my goal but gained some of it back because of binge eating. So now back at it.

    Glasgow here. Did really well and lost 40lbs in 2012, kept it off in 2013 and put half of it back on in 2014. Here's hoping I can actually get to and stay at goal in 2015...

    I'm in Nottingham now, from Australia originally.. Been on MFP for a while, weight's been up and down (now very much up). Trying to get serious now. Needing inspiration and/or motivation.
