    I'm from sunny Southampton! Holidays are the worst for putting on weight aren't they!! I'm hopefully off on a cruise in September - goodness knows how many calories that will be per day!

    Good luck with your weight loss, feel free to add me as a friend :)

    I've an all inclusive holiday in two weeks but usually have no trouble maintaining when I'm away, am always active with my little one or skiing and find the prepared buffet means I can choose an interesting salad that I'd rarely make for myself at home, summer holidays also are hot so I feel less like comfort food which for me is carbs and chocolate.. The availability of wine is more of an issue for me I'm not a big drinker so don't have to allow for alcohol calories usually.

    Hi my name is Emma, I am 37 from Halifax in the UK. I am a single parent to my two lovely children Mollie and Harrison (8 and 4). My weight loss journey started in August 2010 when I joined Slimming World by May 2011 I lost 60lbs around this time my marriage ended. I couldn't get to the gym either and I had regained 19lbs by the time I joined MFP 5 weeks ago. I have lost 7lbs in that time and still want to lose another 25lbs to start with.

    Where are you going on your All Inclusive holiday? I went to Lanzarote last August for 11 days and gained 9lbs in that time, I thought I had been fairly good too protein and salad for lunch and evening meal. I think it must have been the Baileys (not the best thing to drink when you are watching your weight).

    I have sent you a friend request. Anyone else feel free to add me

    I'm based in Hertfordshire, I have been trying to lose the baby weight to not much avail and have been given the chance to take part in a scheme at work which I hope will kickstart things for me. Would appreciate support from anyone who wants to add me. :smile:
    was doing quite well on here a couple of months ago but have fallen off the wagon lately so glad to be back and hoping to see results soon.
