Hi Everyone
My Name is Sam and i am 24. I have been overweight since i was about 18 when i went off to Uni, got a sports injury and the weight piled on and i have been battling it ever since.
Whats makes it harder for me now is that i now live in Turkey, and there are no Diet groups out here and i feel like i am the only one out here!! so thought i would try online for some support instead. I have bought myself a bike and i am cycling everywhere and trying to resist all this gorgeous foreign food. Sometimes being homesick doesnt help and i just want to sit infront of the TV and eat!! not good!!!
I am looking forward to getting to know some of you on here, I am aiming to lose some weight for xmas, when i go home to Wales with my boyfriend, would like to surprise people with a new me! xxxx:p
 
Hi Sam and welcome to minimins - you'll get all the support on here you could wish for - all hours of the day. All the very best with your diet. Your bike will be really great to tone and keep you fit. Just wait till they see the new you when you go home to Wales. Good luck!:)
 
Welcome Sam to the forum.

Its a great lifeline on here - support, ideas and just general chit chat.

Sounds like you will have the perfect excuse for getting out and about and topping up your tan in Turkey - and you can have all those lovely healthy salads and stuff....

Post your weight losses and let us know how you are doing

Can't fault it though, having a bike to ride around Turkey. Nice!!
Good luck with losing weight by Christmas and also you're tan will be great too!! By the time you come back to Wales (i'm a Welsh gal too!) I'm sure you'll be happy with everything.

Take it easy
