I just found this site and need to lose weight, well that didn't take much insight since I am about 100 lbs overweight.  I always played racquetball and my weight was somewhat in control when I lived in Texas.  Since moving to the UK I have gained 50 lbs in two years.  The food is good here and I have a love affair with the bread and milk in London.  I should be able to lose quickly but steadily since as a Texan we didn't walk like we do here in London.  I am excited about this site! I  was going to go to Weight Watchers which I had used in Texas and it worked well, but had gone with friends and of course we all had cars.  The nearest meeting to me here would have been about an hour bus journey.  Doing a journal is not like me but I will be 60 soon and am tired of feeling so heavy and don't want to buy clothes.  The good news is a 20 to 30 pound loss will put back in clothes I haven't been able to wear since about a year to 15 months ago.  So here we go, I will track my success I will not fail, wish I could find some racquetball players, jeez maybe I need to take up Squash!
