    Hi!
    I'm from the midlands too but live in London at the moment. I have about 42lb to loose but would be happy with 28lb for now.
    I'm mainly vegan but have the odd thing which may have dairy in on occasion so I don't call myself vegan!
    I've just restarted trying to slim down so I'm taking baby steps with trying to stay within my calories first before cutting out all the junk! :)

    What are some of your go to meals?

    Mine are lentil, spinach and squash stew which goes with anything eg brown rice, rice noodles etc
    I also eat a lot of stir fry brocoli and spinach with tofu, again with brown rice often or just veg
    Spelt bread pizza is also gorgeous and quick, and I just top it with any veg I have and a drizzle of olive oil

    Naughty I know but there's a really good recipe for vegan cookies which I will post. I substitute the almond milk for water or soya milk. The water doesn't work so well though! And you can get away with using much less sugar!
