Hello from the UK

Hi everyone,

I'm Charlie, 31 years old and from Lincolnshire, UK.

Fed up of feeling tired, with no energy and aching legs and back after standing up at work all day so time to do something about it.

Work 9-6 so exercise tends to be walking my two lovely Labradors, but planning some home work outs with jump rope, YouTube videos and a few kettlebells.

Planning to make diet the main change (and giving up red wine every night!)

Not the best time to start right before Xmas, but gives me a chance to get used to logging in this and hopefully keep the Christmas period binging under control!

Would love to have a few other people to talk to. Currently am 14st 12lb (208lb) and 5'5. Wearing UK 18-20 clothes. Aiming for 12 stone and UK size 14 and generally get healthier.

Please add if you would like a newbie friend!

    Crikey, Sweep79! That's good going! Well done, its taken me 17 months to lose the same amount! I'm a lot older than you though, wonder if that's why?

    That's a great effort Sweep! I'd be happy with half that in the same time.
