I know it probably feels like the be all and end all at the moment, but you can't let 14lbs ruin your christmas!! You're a healthy weight now, so there is no rush to lose the pounds.

Hi, I'm Ali, by the way =]

Haha, fair does =] Mince pies rule

It is quite hard losing weight at this time of year, especially if you're not overweight to begin with! I'm a bit like you - already in the healthy range, and just trying to lose the last bits and bobs - and people can be so pushy! You tell them you're on a diet and they give you a cynical look and tell you that you can afford one mince pie/chocolate/massive slice of cake with full fat cream and sprinkles... 

Oops, went into a bit of a rant there.  And may I just say that is probably the first time I have ever been called sensible, so thank you!! =]

hehe- can completely relate I swear my friends WANT me to get fat! 'Oh but you have to eat with us its weird otherwise' !!!!! SHUTUP LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!! Oooooo look I'm ranting to isn't this place amazing for getting things off your chest- best therapy ever. is it alright if I add you as a friend? I'm new to this place I haven't logged on since I joined like a year ago and I swear its all changed!

Keep up the ranting miss sensible its good for you;)

Loookking for a buddy so we can keep each other motivated.

Age:22 (do I qualify as young still?)

Height: 5'4"

Weight: 123-127 for the last 4 months

Goal: 117

Age: 19

Height: 5' 2.5"

Weight: 138 lb

Short-Term Goal: 130 lb by January 7th

So for now I'm setting myself the target of half a stone in a month which is completely reasonable. After that I'd like to lose at least another 10 lb; I'm completely pear-shaped and want to lose enough weight to feel comfortable in a skirt! I'm aiming for 1200-1500 calories a day, and want to start exercising again. Would love to have anyone of a similar shape/size to help keep me motivated and vice-versa!

Hi there,

I'm 16, currently 148 and hoping to be 134 at some stage. I'm 5'7.

I'm completely pear-shaped holding all my weight around my hips and tummy. I know what you mean about skirts! And jeans, my thighs really get to me.

I would love a buddy, someone to help keep me motivated about excercising, its so hard when the cold nights draw in. Also someone to help me stop comfort eating when i feel like having a cosy night in.
