    My names Clare and I'm a 28yr old mum of three. I started my journey back in February five months after having my third child. I have been mainly concentrating on diet and making sure I'm moving about more than I used to. I have gone from 205lb to 145lb and my goal weight is 125lb. It's great to meet you all

    Count me in too. I'm Nic from Glasgow. I've been using MFP on and off for the last 18 months. I lost 22lb for my wedding in June and have been stuggling to get back into things. I work in a hospice as a staff nurse and work long shifts. I tend to find that if i am organised then i do well but i also want to be able to live a little from time to time and not have to watch every single calorie that goes into my mouth (ie. birthdays and special occasions). Feel free to add me and we can support each other in our goals. My first new goal is to have lost a total of 28lbs or more by Christmas. Good luck everyone :flowerforyou:

    Welcome everybody :) Good to see so many UK people around!

    Don't worry if you can't commit to a certain amount of posting, we are really just supporting each other whenever we can in the thread. Some people post their weigh ins, others don't. It's completely up to you how often you post (and what you post about) although obviously regular posting is what keeps the thread going.

    I just read that apparently in the US a 'biscuit' is like a muffin.... weird!

    When I've had biscuits in the us they've been more like dumplings. But baked. Hard to describe. They serve them with a creamy gravy for breakfast....

    Wow!! Fab start to a revival!! :happy:

    Me, I go by Kendra Fallon here, which is name I took in Second Life. I've been on MFP for while. My weight loss journey has been up and down, but then that's life.

    I work for the NHS in IT, live in Leicester and have a tendency to be blunt with my words - I try very hard to say what I mean and mean what I say, it just doesn't always come out that way!!.

    Anything else you want to know, ask :smile:

    Hi I'm Marina, I've been living in London for the last fifteen years. I've been dieting since primary school! So I want to stop that, get in control of my weight yo-yoing and finally feel happy with myself. I've been on MFP since June and so far it's working really well for me - even got me back to doing some exercise which is great. Good to meet all of you and here's wishing everyone success.

    I'll join!

    I'm Laura, I'm 29 and from Birmingham. I've lost around 30lbs so far and want to lose probably another 20-25ish. I'm currently doing Zumba twice a week (trying out a third class tonight) and I'm on day 14 of the 30 Day Shred :happy:

    Well done! I think I am going to start the shred again - I was having a great time with it and was mid way through level 2 but then I had a nasty job interview and somehow my shot confidence led to giving up on my shredding!

    hahaha yep, sounds awful to me! (although usually I love anything with gravy!). Not too sure about trying everything first Kendra. I'm pretty adventurous with food, but then I saw that post yesterday about the balut (fully formed duck embryos cooked inside the egg)... ewwww, just looking at it made me feel ill!
