So I am struggling. I have at least 100lbs to lose so I have a long way to go. Was thinking of going back to slimming world for the group support and that accountability of someone weighing me every week but honestly I love calorie counting so want to stick with this. So I need friends.
So about me......
I am 38, married with 2 kids. Go casual admin work as I have an autoimmune disease which has put me in a wheelchair and not always well enough to work. But I am determined. I try to go to the gym on my well weeks although obviously won't be running any marathons anytime soon. I obviously have an issue with food and I aren't going to suddenly like salad ha. But could really do with some friends that I can get to know so we can help each other xx
