To survive the humid Brisbane summer - I'm used to dry Perth summers and dislike perspiring so much (so unlady like!). Less fat = less perspiration! But most of all I really want to be able to wear zip up boots (as others have mentioned). As soon as I reach my goal weight I'm racing out to buy a fabulous pair of boots :-)

I am losing weight to be who I really am, for myself. Are there any other 30 yo who feel the same way? Eg your friends will always…

The bigCB ha that's great - LOL But seriously isn't every person who logs onto this site is here for the only reason of shedding kilos and to be seen as who they really are???? I haven't told my friends but that's because it's about me, and how I feel about myself, not them.

Hello! I'm totally new - this is my first post (!) but I'm in Australia - no idea about the lbs - it's kgs here but I guess it's all about the same thing - weightvloss regardless of how we measure it....
