  • Hiya, I'm 24 and also looking for friends! xx
  • I have a good recipe for a chicken and chickpea pilaf...or why not try making a seafood linguine using low fat soft cheese. I do agree with the above...my fella and I plan our meals for the week so that we only buy what we need when we go shopping. And as I work in a supermarket it's easy for me to pick up fruit and veg 2…

  • Have been dying to try the C25K for ages now - but have been too nervous given that my running skills are severely lacking! However, have just downloaded the free C25K podcasts from the NHS on iTunes...so here we go!!! Thanks @BlondeViki for the advice about trainers! Will definitely be popping along to my local sports…
  • Wow thanks for the welcome guys! @autumnbreeze - if definitely sounds like we're alike! I too thrive on routine and hate it when everything gets turned upside down!

  • I'm exactly the same - can't help myself during the evening just seem to want to pile on more food! Also going out to eat is a nightmare!
