  • I’m in! For the next 2 weeks I commit to staying within my calorie goal and execrise 5 days a week. Will update the day after. Good luck everyone!

  • Lovely! My goal for the next two weeks is to keep within my calories goal and exercise at least 20 mins 5 days a week. I 'll start logging tomorrow as it is nightime here.

  • Welcome to the UK and MFP. Not british but have been living here for 15 years. Humour is great, weather is horrible, a bit difficult to make friends but I have met some lovely people here. Good luck!

  • I am also a comfort eater, even when not facing difficult situations like yours. I usually eat late in the evening as well, probably to make up for being tired. Tea works for me too.
