Yayyy Kazzy! I'm coming back around for a 2nd mention, it was a while ago since I posted. I'm Elaine, been on here little over 8 weeks or so, I'm in it for the longhaul I've got over 2 stone still to shift ☺

Yes I was referring to the chit chat forums :) By "beautiful people" I meant exactly that and never imagined that I'd have to explain it. Those with already beautifully sculpted toned tanned bodies who obviously take those bodies to the gym on a daily basis. Compared to me, a mum trying to shift a few stone by walking and…

I've been on different combinations of meds for many years and it isn't until recently I believe my weight may have been affected. I've been on Mertazapine for around 3 months now and I can honestly say i've noticed a gain of around 14lb but i started taking them in December just before Christmas so that could be down to…

@3dogsrunning perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places. Simply an observation.

My experience of the forums is that the beautiful chat to the beautiful, sad but true. I'm lucky that I've found a supportive little network on here in the 7 weeks I've been active. Perhaps those with 'gym bodies' have very different goals therefore don't feel that they have enough in common with us trying to shift a lot…

Derbyshire :)

Hi I'm in Derbyshire, i'll send you a request :)

Hi I'm in Derbyshire :) been on here for 6 weeks, 8lb lost but lots more still to go, add me!

Monday 22nd to Sunday 28th February, a smidge under 18miles. I'm 7 miles away from Brandywine Bridge, will get there shortly :D

Quackers!

Coors Light is my drink of choice at the minute. I have a few bottles over the weekend. I suppose as long as its logged it doesn't matter too much if you stray from your daily allowance. If you were messing up every day of the week then that would be an issue.

Sunday 21st February, 2.5 miles. Only 3.5 miles to The Floating Log :)

Hey hun, we're the same age with the same weight loss goal. Add me :)

Thanks :)

Big softy :)

The last 2 days have been pretty sedentary. Plus my pedometer hasn't picked up the steps done on my weekly shopping trip which I have been informed was probably because I wasn't purposely striding... hard to do in a packed supermarket :/ but still, 1.8 miles further to my next goal :)

Derbyshire gal here :)

Hi I'm in Derbyshire, into my 5th week on here and seeing different people's journeys definitely helps with motivation to stay on track. Feel free to add me :)

Hi, I'm in Derbyshire :)

Excellent teeth

I want those abs.

Why so serious?!

I'm going to use this post as my personal log. Thursday 18th February 4.2 miles.

I've made the final 4 miles and now I camp. Day 1 completed. It amuses me that I've walked 11 miles over 3 days without even leaving the house. But, now I'm getting a bit of cabin fever so will be braving the cold wet weather and carrying onto Day 2's adventure outside of these 4 walls! Long walk planned tomorrow :)

I've just done it twice, same results, ISFJ-T Defender.Surprisingly accurate on all counts especially parenthood & friendship. A fictional Defender... Samwise Gamgee! Love that ♡ :)

Single parent & full time mum :) Previously I was a Care Assistant/Community Care Worker. Before that I was a Personal Consultant (Job Broker) working with people on health related benefits & helping them get back into employment.

Oooh I've just got The Hobbit on audiobook I can't wait to listen to it while I'm marching around my downstairs that should help with the motivation needed to press on :)

Another 2.7 miles and I'm at the Great East Road. Depending on my daughter's plans for the rest of the day I could make it to camp by bedtime. If not, will definitely get there tomorrow. Not so much of a hobbits pace more of a snail's pace but i'll get there, i'll cover some distance before the weekend

Hi I'm Elaine. Big fan of Lord of the Rings. I wouldn't class myself as a superfan or anything I haven't read the books but the trilogy is my fave & i've watched the films over & over & over... Can you point me in the right direction please?! What do I need to do? I've looked at the site & think Bag End to Rivendell is a…

I've got a weird hobbit crush. I'm in.
