Hello everyone!
My name is Emily I'm 18 years old, 5ft8inches in height and I weigh 241lbs my goal weight is 150lbs- 91lbs to lose over a long term- I'm not into fad 'quick fix' diets. I would like some weight loss pals who are also in it for the long term for support and motivation! I've previously lost weight but I always end up putting it back on because I can't stay motivated but when I heard about the my fitness pal community I knew there'd be a nice group of people willing to cheer me on and be cheered on by me, I would also like to be held accountable for my bad habits haha! I've just started jogging (just a 5-10min jog around the block atm) so fellow joggers feel free to say hello!
I hope everyone on here is as nice as I've heard and I hope we can all reach our GW and stick to it!
Only one question- will you be my weightloss buddy?

    Hi Emily! :)

    I'm also from the UK.

    I've found MFP VITAL for staying on track! I have a huge appetite so I made sure to log in here daily to keep in the right mindset and it's really worked for me! Wishing you the very best of luck! You can do it!

    Hello hello! I'm going to add you as a friend. I have about 60lbs to lose and I'm super short (5') so every lb is definitely noticeable on my frame!
