Just moved to London 😭 seeking friends & lose covid weight 🤞

Hey guys! I just moved to London in quite possibly the worst time ever. BUT I’m very happy to be here and not going to lose my motivations. I have no friends IRL yet, but that’s okay. New uk mfp friends welcome :) I really want to lose the weight I gained last year and start running (in the cold) We can do it!

    Hi @cheerocracy welcome to MFP, I am not UK currently but from there originally and live in the same time zone still and still shop at more or less the same stores (Republic of Ireland).

    It's quite daunting moving to new cities, I've done it a few times. Meetup is a great app for meeting new people, there are usually social groups and activity related groups around sports, hiking, etc, though perhaps they may be less active whilst you're in Tier 4.

    I’m just outside of London in Bucks and on a mission to lose 6 stone! I will add you now!

    Welcome to London and tier 4. I’m here in the SW trying yo maintain weight / muscle with body weight exercise and no gym. Good news is, there are lots of running places, depending where you are I can recommend some. Lots of people running in London over the past year, so you will have lots of company. Best of look 😀
