    St Neots in Cambridgshire

    As previously said I'm from St Neots. Now the title of the thread has changed let me introduce myself as well.

    I'm 46 and I would now describe myself as a yo you dieter and someone who had forgotten about fitness. In my 20's/ 30's I used to teach group fitness as a hobby around my day job. As a result of burning 2,000 cal a day in the gym and always on the move I never had to watch what I ate.

    I re discovered my love of Fitness last year and I use LMOD (Les Mills on Demand) for my work outs. I have tried every 'diet', most recently was WW. I got concerned that their plan wasn't giving me enough fuel so I double tracked on here and found out I was 1,000 or less calories which worried me so now I am here to calorie count :)

    To keep on track I post loads of photos on my wall whether food or exercise as I tend to reflect if I write and if i'm typing I cant eat lol

    Anyway that's me!
  • Hay, I'm from Devon. Lost 5 stone, put on 9lb at Xmas which in now trying to get back off. 😁 💜

    Gill here from Ilkeston, East Mids. A slow yo-yo dieter, this is my 3rd go around the weight loss game. Hopefully this time I'll remember to keep tracking once I get to goal!

    Hi, I'm from the Greater Manchester area and just re-starting my fitness/weight loss journey. I'm looking to loose 70 lb in total but my initial goal is 10 lb by April. I have a sedentary job and drive a long way to and from work. This leaves me with little to no energy at the end f the day, so I would love a cheering section when I go manage to get off my *kitten* and exercise.

    Hi all, I've been living in Harrogate for the past 4 years but originally from the States. I haven't logged anything since having my first child nearly 8 years ago, so it's time to get back to it. I'm an ICU nurse, so easily getting 10K steps during work but needing to be more active on days off. I'm interested in sharing food diaries for ideas and a sense of community.

    Hi Andy from Sheffield, got into running during lockdown which I really enjoyed, just got back into doing a little weight workout in the garden but hopefully when the gyms open can start to try and get a little muscle back on. Feel free to add

    Hi! I'm Nic, 35, Greater London

    Attempting to lose 100lb+ somehow 😖

    Will be mainly diet changes and walking to start as I was left with nerve damage following an operation last year, and will be needing more surgery in the future so want to get myself healthier in between surgeries!

    Lost 6.5lb in my first week which was a shock!

    Please feel free to add me for mutual support!

    What a small world we are, I also live in Harrogate and I’m in healthcare too! Struggle on the rare days off as I’m mentally drained and having to get up at 05:30 to get the workouts in before work. Needs must 🙃
