Hello All,

I decided (and many agreed) that we should start an online slimming club not only because the festive season has (nearly) past but also due to the fact that many of us are on medications which weightgain is one of the side effects. Yes I find myself reaching for that bag of crisps/bar of chocolate even if I am not hungry.

To lose weight successfully is to do it slowly, no tricks but with that bit of willpower we still might have.

I had an idea that we could give each other tips on what works for us, post some exercises, recipes or even handy tools from websites.

The main thing is to stay positive in this, if you fail one day just pick up the next we are not pointing fingers and putting each other down... NO! We are here for each other as a team!

Let's make 2010 our year to learn to love ourselves and feel better... come to terms with what we have to deal with and just try and live a little more and be happy

To us
