    Thank you, when I've lost a bit of weight I'd like to do some excercising again and that looks like a nice goal to have. I always watch it on telly each year and am impressed by those doing it. Can't do it now as too much pressure on my knee. Seems I'm carrying around too much bulk around on a smallish frame.

    Not sure if the OP is still here. I can't seem to load their profile anymore.

    I'm from London, UK feel free to add me. I'm 300lbs and classed as clinically obese, it's effecting my life. So losing weight via MFP + Fitbit is my last resort as my Dr really wants me to go for weight loss surgery as I'm only 22.

    Hi, you can add me too, if you'd like to? I'm from South Wales. I've been using MFP for 2 years and have managed to lose 31lbs. I've been stuck for a good while but, to be honest, I haven't been really strict lately. I've decided to have one more attempt at losing the final 8 lbs. I'm going to stay within my calorie allowance and see how it goes. I'm on daily to offer encouragement. Good luck!

    Hiya, London here but originally from Manchester - would be good to do recipe swaps / share motivation with some other UK users!

    Have put on weight after getting a sedentary job and letting things slide - trying to get back to the size 10/12 I was 3 years ago. I'm going back to cutting out processed foods, grains, dairy and refined sugar - paleo/primal influence but trying to eat plenty of veggies rather than so much meat. Also exercising is a big factor for me - trying to build my fitness back up!

    Be especially good to link in with anyone doing similar to above - also any fellow PCOSers?

    Feel free to add me anyway!! :)

    I hope no one minds me adding them too, it's nice to see others from the UK and easier to pinch food ideas!
