Hi, i stumbled onto this website by accident and figured that must be a good sign.. maybe this time, this diet will work. I've said that so many times, as i'm sure many of you have. I can only wish.
Well my name is bekki i'm 30 and live in whitstable in kent. I have 5 children (i'm not crazy i promise) who i love very much but it's obviously taken it's toll on a not very well looked after body. Now i'm reaching the stage, after many many diets that i feel that this is the way i'll always be, but i don't want this to be the case. i want to be able to feel good about myself again and hold my head high. Soooooo i am goin to try so very hard ( i promise lol) and if there is anyone out there that can support me thru this, maybe b my back bone lol then that'd be great. Good luck to you all. Bekki :-)

    Welcome Bekki. I don't diet. I have changed my lifestyle. Dieting does not work!

    My name is Diane and feel free to add me as a friend. I will be happy to lend you some support. As the mother of 3 I totally understand where you are coming from lol. I've been using the site for about a month and just recently reached out to everyone on here for friends to help me. Everyone is very friendly and supportive. Good luck!

    Hi Bekki! Well done making the decision to get healthy and fit, rather than giving up. I too thought I would always be this way, until I realized that I had the power to change it. Another important thing I had to realize was that doing it "the right way" wouldn't be easy or immediate. But nearly thirty pounds later and twenty pounds away from my goal, I am so glad I made the decision to stick with it, and I'm glad you have too!

    Anyway, welcome! I live in California, but my best friend grew up in Kent (he lives in Scotland now). Request sent. :)

    Hi Bekki

    Iv been doing this for just over a month. Im really enjoying myself & the weight is coming off. It's genuinely a change of life not a diet. My top tip is WW choc mini rolls-87 cals in each one so if I need choc fix that's my treat of choice.

    Feel free to add me-good luck Hun

    Xx

    Hi like the others have said this is a life style change and not a diet. I've never really managed to lose weight until I found here. Feel free to friend me if you like
