I've just joined my fitness pal. I've been a yo yo dieter for as long as I can remember! In the past few years after a few bad break ups amongst other dramas I gained 2 and a half stones.
I'm now in a better relationship, however still hunting for my dream job. My confidence is at an all time low due to my weight. Looking to make a fresh start today!! Any support would be appreciated!! :)

  • I am awful about yo yo dieting. I lost about 15 pounds in the fall, but I gained it back. I am currently 10 pounds under my prepregnancy weight but I want to lose about 80 pounds.

    I currently try to eat about 1,500 calories a day. Welcome and Good Luck!

    Hey dont worry about it because we all go through our struggles. My story is similar to yours except I've been battling to gain weight for years! #Don't you wish we could just trade the weight and that would be that?! Lmbo Anyway it's my first day on this journey (again) too so be encouraged and inspired. :) New Year, New Start, New Attitude...just run with it!!!!
