hello everyone.

In the process of losing weight, I was 110kg last year now I'm down to 98kg. Hoping to get my weight down to 80kg by continuing to go to the gym 3 days a week and 'trying' to run 5 days in that same week.
Trying not always succeeding.

Hopefully this site will be good support for me.

Hi Paper Clip and welcome! Well done on your progress so far and good luck in completing your journey. I have no doubt that you will find support from this site, perhaps have a look at joining an exercise challenge for accountability or simply jumping in on some discussions or asking questions in the forum.

I am also from the UK, but now living in Portugal, I am mainly working on being mindful about what I eat and cutting out junk food. My exercise is something that I am slowly increasing but hope to make a firm focus in the coming weeks and months to help me reach goal.

Thanks for the warm welcome and advice.

Joining an exercise challenge sounds like a great motivator so I'll check that out and will try to chime in discussions when I can.

I wish you luck cutting out the junk food, I found that by substituting bread and potato with cauliflower and brown rice really worked out well for me. I also try to avoid fast food restaurants when I'm feeling tired and my willpower is on the verge of collapsing.

I would say you traded rain for sunshine by moving to Portugal, but I know it rains quite a lot in Portugal this season :smile:.

Best of luck achieving your goals.

hello and welcome! Best wishes on your weigh loss journey
