Ditto for me! I walk much more here than I did in the States, but it doesn't seem to work off all the nice things I like to eat!  :P

Me, too! I walk a lot more, but eat a whole lot more. Cheese, new potatoes, freshly baked bread ... all the good stuff.

OK. I'll admit it. I hate skinny people. Can't stand 'em.  ;)

LOL! I just got off the phone really quickly because my best friend was complaining that she needs to loose 10-20 pounds.

Becuses she's "soooo fat" at a huge size 4 or 6.  ::)

I also tend to gain weight in the UK, which I'm sure is almost entirely due to the fact that I eat a *lot* more chocolate while I'm here. ;)

However, I remember that when I first arrived, I hardly ate anything for the first two months because I wasn't used to the food- it was to the point where other people noticed and were worried about me!  I made up for it and then some later though, hehe :P

I lost a bunch of weight when I first made it over here...but made it up in boyfriend weight - you know, when you start eating with a guy and he gives you the same amount and you just eat it?  Yeah.  That's me.  I gained all the weight I lost plus some.  So now I'm back to smaller portions (trying) and slowly losing the weight.

Boyfriends are evil that way! Especially since he probably was losing weight at the same time! So annoying!!

I lost weight when I moved here - and managed to put it all back on when I went home for a 2 week visit...  I just don't socialise over food here as much as in North America.

I eat much less, more regularly and I walk a lot more.  I'm not as slim as i'd like, but i'm comfortable. 

I still don't think I'm in the WW points range - I tried it and found I'm eating more than my points but I'm close so as long as I'm staying healthy and constant, I'm not really bothered.
