:flowerforyou: Hi i started on Monday (19th) and decided it looks a bit sad to have no friends - so today i started a blog and decided i would like a pal or 2. My name is Diane and i am 44 - i live in the Midands (UK) and want to loose lots for my holiday in June. Trying to do low fat (aka Rosemary). I am hoping this distraction of blogging etc helps to get me past my mid morning biscuit crave (to have with my cup of tea) - oh how i miss my digestive - tea taskes different without a good digestive!

    Hi Diane, my name is Jacqui am 43 and also started on Monday (19th),like you have no fitness pal friends. Unfortunatly I think in have started too late to lost much for my holiday, as i go in 2 weeks. But i do hope to look and feel a little better and more comfortable in my swimwear. I have tried many different diets over the years i hope making friends online will give me the encouragement and support to reach my goal.

    Biscuits are also my downfall! In fact me and the other half argued the other night. He complained we had no biscuits for a snack, but I told him I've stopped buying them because I'll eat them, he pointed out not everyone has to eat a whole packet all at once :-(
