Hi ladies, I'm new

[Rose Bud]

Hi Everyone.

I'm Lucy, I'm 20 and I'm here to get advice and support to lose weight. I'm 12.6 stone (UK size 16), and hoping to lose a minimum 2 stone. I was slim my whole life until I gave up dancing aged 17 and its just piled on since then. Going on holiday in July so hoping to have lost a minimum of 1.5 stone by then.
Since Christmas I've been telling myself "I'll start tomorrow", and tomorrow has finally come. I've had a few false starts, but I'm determined to do it this time.

Looking forward to meeting everyone, this looks like a friendly place

Thanks hun I'mm very happy!
I'm following slimming world the red and green days. I did it a few years back and loved it. you don't have to count calories and that's brilliant! I also never really felt hungry following it and that's important if you want to do it long term.
what diet are you doing?
