Hi everyone! newbie here
 

Hi everyone.

New to the site. My name is Lola, i'm 23 and from the UK.

For the past couple of years my weight has been yoyoing up and down. My recent weight gain has occured during the past 6 months, in which I finished university and was unemployed for 6 months. Spent the majority of time sitting on my sofa munching everything in sight n watching boxsets of law and order and lost :o . I also quit smoking over this period, which definately hasnt helped.

Now I'm finally back at work and cant seem to fit into any of suits... I split my trowsers running up the steps at work last week hahaha very embarassing :o . I joined this site in the hope I would finally lose weight once and for all. What I've seen of 3 fat chicks so far is that you all seem lovely and supportive.

I am looking forward to getting involved in the community.

Welcome, welcome, welcome! And sorry about your trousers - that sucks. Good luck, and be sure to ask for advice when you need it, you'll find lots of helpful chicks around :)

Hello! I recently experience a bought with unemployment following uni graduation and I can sympathize... it is tough being unemployed and struggling. Glad to hear you finally landed a job!! Hopefully that in itself will cut down on the mindless snacking. Best wishes to you.

No day but today,
Dana
