I just joined up and think it will help me be motivated and lose weight better.
Im 20 years old.
I weigh about 12 st (im used to kgs so im converting it lol)
Goal weight is about 10 st.

I just want to feel comfortable in my own skin again, im not happy when i look in the mirror at the moment and i want that to change. But i think thats what every girl wants right? So I begin a journey today and i hope i get to the end with a huge,confident smile on my face

Wish me luck

Hey good luck!

I've only just joined this site and it seems really friendly.

I'm just under 11st 11lbs and want to get down to about 9st 7lbs so we're around about the same. Perhaps we can give each other support and a nudge in the right direction if things are'nt going to plan!

Well good luck! I'm sure you will get there.

The journals are a good way of tracking what you eat and how you are feeling while losing weight, so keep it up!

I'll def be back to keep reading how your getting on!

ive lost half a stone since i started my weightloss. And it really isnt as hard as when i put myself on a diet. I only eat when im hungry,i gave up on snacking lol. I walk everywhere and dance almost every night in my room (dont laugh) it really does work. And i have just relised that ive droped a dress size yay!!

Hey thats great! Well done :-)

What you are doing is obviously working for you. Dancing is a great exercise, look at the contestants on strictly come dancing, they always lose lots of weight and tone up everywhere!

Keep it up.

Ive just done some measurements and the most impressive its my stomach, ive lost 12cm, thats 4.7 inches!! Im so happy lol.

yay well done! im too nervous to do the measurement thing, the stepping on the scales thing freaks me out enough as it is!

Its so good to see that you're being sensible about this. Basic healthy living. I like that, and it DOES work. I also think its fantastic that you say your have 'started your weight loss'. Thats exactly how I feel about it too. With a diet, you get a set of rules that you can fail at, with a good attitude and relaxed approach, you are more likely to actually get somewhere.

Well Done!
