in Introduce Yourself
HI all, joined this site ages ago but never really got into it, have rediscovered it and really enjoying it. It's really got me thinking about what I eat now!
Um a little about me 28yr old Mum of 2, 94kgs (207lbs) wanting to lose weight to be healthier and look better, and have more energy for my boys :)
Would love to have more friends on here to share the journey with, even those who have lost weight and are now maintaining it, you guys are so inspirational.

    I know what you mean, I seriously lack motivation sometimes and think I need people to give me a kick up the bum sometimes :) Will add you now :)

    Great to hear you're getting into the swing of MFP. It is a great site.
    Add me if you like. I am 59, mum to 2 daughters, one in her own house, the other at uni. Semi retired so now I have time to try to get my health better so I can exercise more & start losing my excess weight.
    We're all here for the same reason, so lets help each other

    Yes you have plenty of time to get to where you want to be, but it will go SO fast so don't think oh it doesn't matter too much it's not for another ?? time, thats what i did and altough i was very happy with how i looked on my wedding day i wish i was about a stone lighter!! i put most of my weight on after the wedding on honeymoon and after as i just said oh who cares i'm married now, were having fun! Well, you can still have fun with out stuffing your face!! now i have to deal with being a fatty! but we CAN do this and together WE WILL!! :-)

    Ahhh twins, wow, me and my husband are hoping to get pregnant after september time and we have put it off a little as we think we might have twins as it runs in both our families (his mum being a twin plus his nana had 2 sets of twins and his mum told me that the other sister she has was also a twin but it died in the womb so that means his nana could have had 3 sets of twins!!) my uncles are twins too!
    On another note, we can all lose together and give each other motivation and help when ever needed!! x

    Hi all. Started yesterday and want to lose about 2 stone. I am fairly tall at 5.7 with a small frame so am constantly told that i do not need to lose weight. But i am not happy, I am 2 and a half stone heavier than I was when i fell pregnant which was 9 years ago and want to try to get back to somewhere near. My clothes are now tight and uncomfortable, muffin top is increasing :o(

    I am a real chocaholic, need lots of support and encouragement. Luckily my boyfiend is doing this aswell so we are helping each other.

    Good luck everyone x

    Anyone can add me if they wish. I've been here for over a month, and I've missed my old support network from FatSecret.com..... I've reached my goal weight, and I'm now struggling to maintain and not lose anymore. I have my own issues with food/eating, but I have gained quite a bit of info on nutrition and fitness now. ^_^ We're all here to help ourselves as well as give support to others
