Hi there

I have reached the rock bottom and as I am too young for heart conditions and want to be the best mom for my two kids (aged 3,5 and 1,5) I truly think I must turn my life around. Unfortunately, I cannot use the food calculator on this site as the foods are just too different, but I will use a local calculator and I think it will work out fine.

I have also ordered a full body cross trainer that should reach our home in a week or so, and although I have never been much of an athlete, to put it mildly, I am now ready. In earnest.

Hoping to get much support from you guys.

    Hi

    I'm in brighton - East Sussex (UK).
    I've been on here losing weight since Sept'08, I originally joined in Jan'08 but gave up after 2 weeks :blushing: :grumble:
    As for the food calculator, you can add your own foods, I know its a pain, but trust me, after a few days, it'll be a breeze.
    Take care and welcome :flowerforyou:

    at least you also count in pounds and feet and ounces and inches - no idea about them either. but i am doing blogging on an estonian site too (that is where i am from, estonia) and i have a cool local calculator, so i will just do that part there. :flowerforyou:

    I have noticed there is a settings tool which you can change the measurements and weights to which ever you prefer so there is no excuse !! :laugh:
