Hey everyone!

I first joined up here a while ago but never got into it...but am back here again after once again falling back into old habits and gaining weight.

I'm 26 and currently weigh 66kg, but am a shorty so this is more weight than I'm allowed! I got a fright to see my weight had crept back up (have gained about 5 kgs in less than 6 months) and that my BMI was on the borderline of overweight - a place I had sworn not to go back to, and I know I have to make some changes now, or things will only get worse! Even with my gym efforts, the change is going to have to be in what I eat. Again.

I have lost weight before but somehow the healthy eating habits always die off and I succumb to the old bad habits and all my hard work is lost :(

Please feel free to add me as a friend and help me on my journey, especially if you're a shorty like me, or you've also been on this path more than once!

    Hi Cat :)

    Whilst I'm no shorty at 5"7, I seem to get into the habit of eating healthy for maybe a couple of weeks, then old habits creep in, I stop "finding time to exercise" (i.e laziness takes over) and the weight creeps back up again, much to my frustration, but nonetheless own fault!

    I just joined today but desperately need people to keep me motivated too! I'll add you if that's cool :)

    Hi Everyone,
    I am the same too joined in January determined to loose the weight and hoped to have lost at least 2 stone by now, but I failed and have only lost 1lb, so pleased I did not creep past it but devestated that I am going back to work om Monday from Maternity leave in my tight uniform. So today is a new day and I am logging again with some new motivation, but need some friends to help me on my journey......
    hope to see all your wonderful weight losses soon xxx
