Hi from the UK. Looking for friends for motivation and support

Options
Hi,
My name is Vosy and I live in Liverpool, UK.
I work in an office all day with only the walk to my car as exercise. In the last 2 years I have managed to pile on nearly 2 stone and I finally got to a point when I said to myself enough is enough! I need to lose the weight and get healthy. I've been using MFP for 3 weeks now and have lost 3.5lbs so far just by logging my food and sticking to the calories that MFP suggested. It's amazing how many calories are in your food once you start logging.

Things are going well at the moment but it would be great to be part of the wider MFP community and here everyone's success stories and to have some friends to help me stay focussed. Would love to hear from you!

Love Vosy xx

    Hi Karen,
    We have the same goal so together we can do it! I worked out that if you lose 1.5lbs a week every week from then we should reach the goal by the end of April or if just 1lb a week by June!!
