New to this Brit!

Options
Hi all, I've been on MFP for about a week now and am loving it - and with a little success already :-)
I've only posted a couple of times to join a fitness and weight loss challenge and hadn't realised the importance of introducing myself and finding support from others - and I promise I will support in return!
I'm 29 and live in Sheffield, UK. Have been up and down with my weight since my teens and have now told myself that if I don't get to my target before I'm 30 I'm never going to get round to it! Target is 140, currently at 156.
If this rings true with anyone else please add me and for support each other when the going gets tough - past experience tells me I'll hit a plateau at about 147 that I just can't budge past and may need a few willing friends to tell me that the red wine just has to go for a while!
Good luck to one and all!
Claire x

    I also want to be 140 by the time I'm 30 - I've got nearly 11 months to go ;) but I've got a lot more to lose than you! All the same, feel free to add me if you want.

    I'm a Brit with an identical start weight and similar goal (I would prefer 9 1/2 stone but will be ecstatic when I reach ten). We are similar ages too I am 28. It's great that we are friends and can support each other!
