Smile Hello from Scotland

Hello everyone,

I've been reading the forums for a month, or so, and now I feel that it's time for me to join in!

I've just turned 26, and I'm a mum to a beautiful little girl who is 3 (and a half ). I found out I was intolerant to a lot of foods in December last year, and after a diet change the weight started to come off, but for the past 2 months, I've been stuck. No gains, but no loses either.

So, I think I need to shake things up a bit and here is the place (hopefully) to help me do that – my walking, and a change of diet can't be enough. I need more exercise, better portion control, and to stop eating junk when I get low-blood sugar (fruit is a better alternative). But, it’s all well me saying it – I actually have to do it!

Hope to see you around,

-neesk

Where in Scotland are you from??

My parents live in Elgin (Morayshire) and the rest of my family are in and arond Greenock. I don't get to go there as much as I like as I am at University in Wolverhampton.

I'm sure you'll find all the support and advice you need here to continue on your weight loss journey.

Neesk!

There's a 20-somethings forum area, and a UK area as well in case you're interested in talking to people who live physically closer to you.

Just make sure that you post wherever you're comfortable!

Best of success!

Hello again and thank you for all the lovely replies

Jadeybaby - I live in Livingston, which is 20 miles from Edinburgh, where I work. Elgin is lovely, I've visited there a few times (and been dragged round the Motor Museum by my brother ). I'd like to go again now I've got my own family. I've never been to Greenock though.

Luckily I have not been forced to go to the Motor Museum yet although I imagine when I'm next on a break from Uni my parents may try and force me to go...

Anyways welcome to 3FC, this is the best web site ever!

Hi neesk,

I absolutely LOVE Scotland!!! It is my favourite place on Earth and I have been fortunate enough to visit several times, INCLUDING Livingston! Have stayed a couple of times at the Ramada Jarvis near ASDAs.

Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and wish you my best. This place is truly life-changing!
