Hello! I'm new to the forums. I've been counting calories since August 1st and have managed to shed 15 pounds. I'm originally from the Minneapolis area but I moved to London, England a few months ago. I want to see my collar bones again!!

Awesome! I lived in London for 3 years and it really helped me keep the pounds off by walking a lot! Plus there are a lot of options for finding various foods because it's such a big city! 15 pounds since August 1st is also just awesome!! Well done!!0

I moved to London because I am insane. I literally just picked up and moved one day. Any american can stay in the UK for 6 months on a tourist visa, but you're not allowed to work. If you're a student, you can stay as long as it takes to get your degree plus 28 days and you can work 20 hours per week.
I wish I were I were a Werewolf, lol why do you ask?
Yeah just the way of life is different over here, i walk EVERY WHERE!!!0 -

Tip:
If you do visit and want to frequent great British establishments like KFC, McDonalds and Starbucks - brush up on your Polish so that you can communicate properly with the staff.0 -

Are you a Werewolf?
This too was my first thought.0 -
It's nice to meet you. And can I add that I am jealous? London is my most favorite city in the whole world. Just three more years until I can move there0

Why do you all think I'm a werewolf?? LMAO. The only thing I can think of is the Shiver book series??
Why do you have to wait 3 years to move here?0 -
There's a movie called "An American Werewolf in London". It's practially awesome. Kind of culty like "Princess Bride"
I have to wait three years because I have to finish my teaching fellowship first. Then I can finally move to the land of my dreams.0
