Hi All
Joined on Sunday lost 5lbs already! Okay okay okay done this enough times to know just water (ahem....!) but I am already addicted to the food diary as it tells you exactly exactly how many calories and composition of nutrients (never thought I would care about these but I do) as opposed to "points" on some mystic formula. I like it, no I love it! I would just love to be come friends with some UK residents - as you Americans as in all things (envious!) clearly have a good thing nailed - and hear about your progress and exchange some encouaging words and woes in this journey. Get in touch.
Regards.

Hi hun
Im from the Uk East Yorkshire here. Im a mum to 3 children, 13.11 yrs and a 14 mth of rascal, work part time within a school and been using this site for i think 40 days. I have been following a free weight lose program that humberside have set up through the health partnership called ready to lose weight, which comes with tips/tricks on better cooking, eating, exercise, self esteem tips as well as new recipes each week when you have weighed in. I have lost 16 Lbs so far ( now down to my pre pregnancy weight) and would love to lose another 2 stone all in all ( just taking it as 1/2 stone goals) Im still breasfeeding so havent quite cut my calories back to my BMR ( given myself an extra 100 ) and im still losing so I know im doing well!
Ive been using the app on my iphone to log most of my food diary which is great and take pack up lunch out so im not tempted to snack while im out at work! I just need to start fitting in some exercise as ive been really busy with end of term stuff... still i can start doing something 2x a week from nxt week and carry it on!
Hope ur having a good week xx0 -

Hi there, I am from Herefordshire UK, been here one week and one day. Day one of my healthy eating started three weeks ago, 11lbs lighter now. Keeping track of all my calories and exercise here is really helping to keep me motivated. Reading posts from others makes me realise what a great number of us struggle with our weight.
My biggest problem is binge days, when I start to eat to high sugar/ fat foods and then I just cant stop. Add to this at 57 my exercise routines have slowed down some what. Am hoping that regular swimming will sort that out, it is kinder on my creaky knees lol.
Good luck to everyone here, lets support one another always to banishes the bulges
Regards
