Hello everyone.

My name is Stephanie. I'm 27 and need to lose another 41lb (already lost 31lb). I was following slimming world but have lost all motivation and really need to get it back quick, i don't want to suffer during the summer and really want to be at target for Christmas.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone during our weight loss journey :happy:

Stephanie. xxx

    Good luck - hopefully you'll find MFP to be the motivation you need, particularly if you choose to make your diary viewable so can't eat too much junk food!

    Thanks everyone. I have sent requests to those who said i could :smile:

    I do zumba twice a week and lots of walking. I also have a cross trainer at home and try to get on that at least 3 times a week too but tbh i find it a bit boring and only manage about 20 minutes each time.

    Not from the UK, but from Belgium. If you want, you can add me as well; our countries are practically neighbours anyways.

    Hi, I'm from Manchester and also new to this forum.
    I'm a veteran 'looser' and have been successful in loosing 70 lbs 25 years ago( I'm 42).
    I still have that nasty 8-10 lbs that won't budge and grows into 28 lbs if I'm not careful.
    I don't diet but eat clean i.e no processed foods or drink.
    Hope we can swap ideas and stories.

    Hi Stephanie,

    I'm from Wales, feel free to add me.
    I have lost 12 and a half stone over the last 2 years but it has started to creep back on and so I joined MFP for inspiration and motivation to finally lose the last 3 and a half stone.
    I love the way everyone helps on this site.

    Good luck

    Keri x

    Hi Stephanie,

    You've done amazingly well to lose 31lbs so far - well done! :happy:

    Everyone hits a bad patch now & again, but I would say you've definitely come to the right place for motivation.

    I've also been a member of Slimming World in the past (more than once!) - as well as just about every other UK slimming club at one time or another! :ohwell: But I feel the support on here is the best I've ever found.

    Good luck with losing the rest of your weight! Feel free to add me as a friend if you like :smile:
