in Introduce Yourself
Hi guys,
thought I'd introduce myself and try to check out the forums more for inspiration. It can be a lonely journey sometimes!!

I'm 26 and getting married next year so I'm aiming to get back to my goal weight of 54kg. Honestly anywhere in the 50s would make me happy for now though! I've been stuck in the 60s for too long and watching it creep up, without enough motivation to do anything about it.

I originally was about 80kg which is obese for my 5'1 height and I successfully lost around 20kgs and was slim for the first time in my life.

Took that for granted and slowly started returning to my old ways.. and yep, here I am with half my weight back on.

I would like to lose at least a few kilos and slim down to fit in to a nice dress for my engagement party in 2 months.

I don't have so much weight to take off this time, but it is much harder this time around. :(

Would love to hear from anyone else in position be it veggo, short and chubby, impending wedding or Australian, though I enjoy following anyone's journey. :)

    I'm not aussie (Brit) 8 inches taller, not a vegetarian, not looking forward to a wedding as I am already married (36 years) I'm a lot older and I am male...and only 12 pound to lose, and oh I measure in imperial measurements, not much going for me is there? to meet your criteria I mean?
    but I am fun loving and I encourage and motivate all my friends on a daily basis. In fact I have a couple of aussies as friends and we get on great, so if you add me I would be honoured :)

    Hi,

    I'm a Kiwi and I'm in the same boat; trying to lose weight for my wedding in December. Really struggle to lose weight, even though I've only got 4-5kg that I want to lose. Have just joined myfitnesspal so feel free to add me as I'm all alone on here (at the moment).
