hi everybody, newbie here with 60lb to loose

Options
Hi there,
My name si Zuzana and i currently live in the UK. I have used MFP on n off since january when I attempted to do p90x. I lasted 40 days and then I gave up and cheated in my diet.Not good. I thought that i can eat whatever I want if i exercise enough. How wrong I was.
Anyway, here I am, eager to make it right this time with keeping my nutrition under control and I am going to tak emy time. My starting weight was 225 lb and I have lost 5lb since I started about 2 weekes ago. My goal weight is 160lb. I designed my own work-out system: a hybrid of TurboJam, TurboFire and Turbosculp. I cycle almost every day too.
I think I am getting addicted to this website, as I constantly keep readinng the message board post. Everybody who posted their before and after photo really inspire me. I know that one day by Gods grace, I will post my before and after photo soon.
All the best everybody. x

    Welcome! The support on here is fantastic, and it's enough to keep me motivated, unlike a standard slimming club. Good luck!

    Hey there!

    I am also in the UK and a newbie to this site! It's my second day and neither today or yesterday have gone to plan, which means my diet has gone up the wall! However, onwards and upwards, I am going to ride this one out and lose the desired weight and most of all prove that I do have willpower to stick it and and beat my sugar addiction!!

    Let me know how you get on and just take each day as it comes. :-)

    Hi there! I opened this in Jan 2011.. but just getting back on track here. I also have 60 lb. to loose maybe a bit more..lol.. I find it so hard to eat healthy and work out. I have 4 boys ages 5-13. With there daddy 14 years now.. pre kids I was too skinny.. never really worked out.. but looked good 120lbs. Post kids was 230 lbs. my highest ever! Current weight is 125. I need to get under that 200 mark!.. Once I do I know the rest will be much easier.. I hate working out alone.. I need that push! Maybe this will help me.. to see other mothers doing what they set out to...Good Luck! Add me as a friend..

    You will for sure have before and after pics. You need to remember that it is okay to have bad days but then get right back at it the next day. Work hard and you will see results!
