add me if you want

Add me too! I have 12 stone to lose and am desperate

Thanks you all for your support, have lost 5lbs this week and have been some walking, although at the moment my back and hips are sore so taking a day off from walking today, but will be remaining under the calorie goal for today:)

hi everyone! I have been out for the afternoon and have come back to all your messages and I am sat here overwhelmed at the support and the messages which people and you all have sent and I wish to thank each and every one of you for taking the time to give me advice and message me. I walked for around 90 minutes round a…

I am starting by walking, flat walks first so that it doesn't strain on my hips as much, as well as the food intake. I am scared.. does that make sense? I am scared people with poke fun at me, I am scared that I am so used to the person that I am that I will not like the person whom I am going to change into....

I am looking into getting this in the new year so would be grateful to hear your views on this!

Every comment on here has been so helpful! I have readjusted diet, started walking a little and bought a couple of DVDs which I am doing in the evenings occasionally. Been trying to avoid canteen food, as it's high in fat etc. Little steps, here goes!

I do weigh everything, I don't always eat my exercise calories back to be fair, I tend to think that I have burned it off why do I want to eat them back, I am drinking 2L of water a day, and walking every other day, no snacking at night time, (picked up a hobby instead) so I am avoiding the biscuits crisps etc too

I can't do really intense stuff due to joint issues, wanting something that is enough to make me lose the weight but not too high impact so that I am in pain. I suffer from pelvic girdle pain from my pregnancies and have to be careful on sleeping positions etc let alone high impact stuff :)

I am Newcastle, feel free to add, just started :)

wow!! Everyone! Thank you so much!!! I am completely overwhelmed!!! I live in Newcastle Upon Tyne. I work in a sedentary job, and sit in a call centre all day, so the exercise for me is when I get home after the school/work run/doing tea/tidying up/washing/sorting stuff out for the next day etc.... so come evening I just…

Thank you! Its all over the place Jo!! I even bought myself one of those money boxes that you can't open unless you open it with a tin opener, you know the ones I mean? I am hoping (depending on cash) to put in £1 whenever I lose 1lb, and maybe a little extra for reaching a half or full stone... the money to then be used…

Hi!! Well done Jo!!! Such an inspiration, I hope to be in your shoes!!! I have 139lbs to lose and am also starting out my journey, maybe we could all help motivate each other? Stacey
