Hello everyone, i am new to this site.... it's a great way to keep track of calories and goals, awesome!
I started my journey weighing 42 stone (588lbs) and in the last 2 years i have lost 317lbs .... my goal weight is so close now, 61lbs to go. It seems to be going so slow now which is dis- heartening but i'll never give up.
If i can help anyone with their own journeys, please don't hesitate to talk to me x

    I too have just joined this site, literally this morning! I have tried many times to lose weight, i've even gone through the docs and dietitians, so i have the knowledge of what i should be doing it but finding it hard to do it alone so when my sister told me about this site i was all for it, just hoping this time i can keep it off for good. Good luck for losing the rest of you weight and well done for how far you have already come. x
