Irish Challenge

Options
Hi,
I am new in this community. I am Candido (36) and I am from Spain. Why am I here in English community? Ok, I am living in Ireland.
I came to Ireland two years ago and... I gained 20 kg in two years!!! :disappointed:
I know I was doing bad: not exercise, not healthy food... It was hard because in a new country, with a new language, without friends and family... really exhausting, I enjoyed having tasty food (but not healthy) :sweat_smile:
But I want to change. I am now with a PT, doing exercise and taking care about my foods. I didnt know this app before, I was using "myfitnesspal" for 4 weeks and I love it. My meals are now completely different from last months.
I think I have a lack of friends here, I need to change that too. First thing I want to do is talk with you because I have no confidence in my English. We can share recipes or only talk about our challenges. It is going to be perfect for me :)
If anyone of you are living in Swords area we can have a tea (0 calories :P ) or a coffee :P
Add me if you want a SpanIrish friend.

Come on guys, We are going to change! :)



(Sorry about my English :blush: )

    I'm Irish and your English is excellent. I understand the weight gain through being unhappy I was living away from friends and family for 2years and found over a stone to keep me company.
