Looking for support buddies!
Hi. I'm back on here again. First week I've lost 7lbs which I'm delighted with. I've about 100lbs to lose, and I'm looking for some friends who can help support each other through this process. I'm aiming to have 50lbs off by Christmas, which I think is doable. Anyone want to be friends?

Starting again
Hi everyone. Back again, I've gained several stone in the last year due to an increased appetite from tablets I take. I am meant to be running the London marathon in October so I am really focused on losing the weight and getting fit. I need some friends to help keep me motivated! Please feel free to add me :)

going over my calorie allowance for the day!
Today is the first time since I started logging again (18 days) that I am going over my calorie allowance....and that's ok.

What is your current motivation/thing you will do when you hit your target weight?
This is super important for me. If I don't have an end goal, i don't stay on track. So my goal is a bit of a away off-just under a year away. But I want to sky dive for my next birthday. I am well over the weight limit at the moment so it is my motivation to stay on track right now. What is your motivation/end goal?
