Hello Everyone

[julie-g]

I have also joined today. I have been walking since January 9th almost every day in an effort to get myself fit and more active and have lost 6kg so far. I'm looking to get some encourage, guidance and information from others on here as I'd still like to lose at least another 10kg.

HiJulie-g.

I only joined this week, but am getting into it now, love using this forum for advice and.support.

I feel the only way is to be true to yourself, and write everything down that you eat/drink, it is easy to forget that odd rich tea biscuit etc.. and soon these extras add up and stop or hinder the weightloss.

Well done for losing 6kg already, that's a fantastic achievement, and walking everyday.

We are looking after our sons dog, so it has made us get up and walk for longer, as we feel that we are letting her down if we don't . It also speeds up the 10000 steps on the fitbit.

I'm behind you all the way. Good Luck
