Hi!
I am looking for more friends for motivation and accountability.
I'm Josie from Liverpool in the uk.
I am 34 and 17 stone 6.
I want to eventually get down to 10 stone.
I am a classic yo yo dieter gaining and losing weight since the age of 17. Being as high as 18.5 stone and as low as 11 stone at times. I have lost weight through Slimming World in the past but thinking of calorie counting.
6 months ago I started playing rugby union and love it, training 3 times a week. Unfortunately I have actually gained weight in the last 6 months despite the rugby and smoothies. Time to record what I am eating and be accountable!! X

    My situation is very similar to yours. My weight has been on a rollercoaster for years. Presently, I need to lose 80 pounds to get to my personal ideal weight, but it's been hard due to a knee injury. I do a lot of walking and exercising on the elliptical. If you need a motivational buddy, maybe we could help each other. I'm also in the UK, but I'm in Hartlepool.

    I'm in the UK and need to lose about 80lbs. Would love some friends to motivate me and keep me going. I'm planning to start with just sensible eating, reducing the junk and starting to exercise more.
