Hi,

I am hoping to lose 10lb to get myself back in shape. I have had quite a bit of work stress recently and when I'm stressed - I eat! (I wish I was one of those people who lose their appetite when stressed..!)

Some photos of me from a night out have just been posted on facebook, in which I look flabby and generally horrendous :( At least they have given me the motivation to get going!

Looking forward to meeting you :)
Carla

    Hi,

    I've lost 10lbs and have 14lbs to go, so not too far off your target too.

    I really like this site and have found it very supportive, regardless of the amount you want to lose.

    Feel free to add me as a friend and good luck!

    PS I'm the one on the left in the cowboy hat in the photo:smile:

    Welcome! I am in the same boat, I just did a photoshoot and am not happy with some parts of me as well.

    I started a June Challenge to lose 10lbs, you and anyone else is welcome to join us if you like, I check in every day with my intentions and report of what I did and it's helping tremendously!

    Good luck! If you'd like to join, just follow the link in my signature :)
