Hi, I thought I'd come and introduce myself since the website says dieting with friends helps and I need all the help I can get haha.
I'm Katie, I'm 20, I'm a University student from the UK and I'm a vegetarian.
I've not got a lot to lose. I only need to lose 3 pounds to be in my 'healthy weight range' and just over a stone to weigh what I want to, but I struggle with diets. Or sticking to diets for the long term and not getting bored and starting to think 'well, one cake won't hurt' anyway. I've just tried weightwatchers and I lost about a stone before I started to put weight on every week instead even though I stuck to the diet so I thought I'd give simple calorie counting another try.
I used to eat a lot of processed foods and ready meals I'm trying to cook all my meals from actual fresh ingredients, not a strong point of mine, I'm usually a take-away sort of person so if anyone knows any good low calorie recipe websites I could get some inspiration off it'd be a massive help.
Also, feel free to add me as a friend, especially if you have the same problem with sticking to diets and we can help keep each other on track

Hello New Friend!
We can do it together. We both know how hard it is to count calories and remember to enter them... Hopefully together we can remind each other. Don't forget that adding a workout can help too.
I don't know many vegetarian recipes, but I will send you any recipes that I have that you might enjoy. I have a really good and healthy black bean soup recipe I can send you if you would like it.
I look forward to seeing where our journey takes us!!0 -
Welcome!
Good luck!0
