Hi there,

My name is Julia and this is the first day for the rest of my life. I have struggled with my weight all my life and as such I am now suffering. I have arthritis in my pelvis and knees and I know the extra weight is not helping me. Can you be my slimming buddy?

I want to look hot for my 25th Wedding Anniversary in September ... no pressure.

If you think you can help me on my way, please feel free to message me.

Cheers

Julia :smile:

    Hi Julia,
    I've struggled with my weight for a long time too, so not sure how much I can help, but I can be very determined when I make up my mind to do something. I have done it before so I know I can do this. I just joined today so this is all new to me. I have so many reasons to do this...one being going to the beach in June! Here's to having a great time then and you having an awesome 25th!

    Thanks so much for adding me. This will be so much easier with moral support from people on here. I love how things are calculated for you. Makes it sort of idiotproof, which I need!
