If not I wonder if I can find one here! I'm in the SE8 area of London and wondering if anybody close by fancies going to the gym together or possibly doing some sporting activities together? Even better now that the sun is out! :)

Mine is a confidence issue. I have none and I know it is all down to being overweight. On top of that I see all of the other benefits of weight loss (cheaper clothing, clothes fitting better, feeling fitter because I'm not carrying about 17 stone everyday! Generally being healthier etc.)

I absolutely used to be the same. For years and years I 'thought' about joining a gym but the fear was instilled deep within me, I thought people would look at me, laugh and stare. Luckily enough I made a confident overweight friend (thank my lucky stars that I met her everyday!), she was one of...

Is there such a thing! lol! I've been eating 100g of Asda Beef Ravioli (bit higher in fat then I'd have liked but the xenical sorts that out) with 175g of Weight Watchers mozzarella & rocket pasta sauce before going to the gym. All in all comes to about 280 cals which isn't too bad, but also...

I only started my weight loss plan on April 5th and I've just gotten over a two week battle with the flu (not even 100% yet), towards the end of which I started to get my strength back and unfortunately food became a friend again and it was all tea and hob nobs, midnight snacks and take aways...

Can anybody give me a few pointers on how easy/difficult it was and how they managed it? I ask because I have a few friends who have done VLCDs (Lighter Life), and lost a substantial amount of weight. One in particular lost 4 stone over 4 months, but the second she went back to regular food it...

Hi Kikinz, I'm sure it will, there's so much information and good feeling surrounding weight loss that I feel more at ease already. :) Thanks AppleJack. Xenical is just a weight loss aid to be honest, it's called Alli in the shops, it takes a quarter of the fat you eat per meal and comes out in...

Hi Aimee and Obsy. I looked into the Cambridge as well actually but food is a massive struggle for me, I have to eat, even if it's veggies and fish or something, otherwise I end up binging and then feeling awful. My friends all swear by the Lighter Life diet but I think I'd fail miserably if I...

I was reading a Xenical success stories thread on another website and one woman insisted it was crucial to take a multivitamin every morning at least two hours before your first Xenical tablet. She made it clear Xenical can actually rid the body of some essential fats and thus it'd be an idea to...

Thanks guys, going to the gym has been a nightmare but I am going to make sure I go four days of next week and I'm definitely going to give the walking thing a shot! I live in a really hilly area so that'll hopefully come in handy.

Aw Thanks Millux! :)

It's only my first week, so I know I shouldn't be beating myself up too much, but I am really struggling with the exercise portion of my weight loss. One good tip someone has given me was to try and not do it in the house (must admit this was a prize piece of advice because if I am in front of...

Hi Ang, I'm new and have had a really hard time cutting out the wine and vodka! lol. But am doing my best, good luck with the Slimming World hun. :)

Hi guys, thanks very much! I've done a bit of research on the weight loss surgery thing, sadly quite out of my price range at the mo' as I'm a lowly student. But I'll def go and have a read about other peoples experiences, thanks Irene. :)

I'm new here but I am going to give this a try, it'll be something to shoot for! Also it ends 3 days after my 27th birthday so if I do make it it'd be the best birthday pressie ever! :) I started on Monday and I've lost 2lbs so far... struggling a bit but it's early days.

Hey Everybody, I'm new here, I'm a 26 year old woman from London (England) who has been struggling with my weight all my life. Ultimately I'd really like to get a gastric band but I am going to try good old fashioned calorie counting and exercise first of all to see how far I get. Not getting...
