I have been following the MFP for almost a month now and have cut down the take away treats to once a week!
In the first few weeks i lost 4lb but now weighin day and i have lost anything the BMI went down but no weigh loss.

I know only a month in i should be feeling good in that i lost 4lb but i finding it tough!! I want my chocolate whenever i want it!

I wont give up and i know i am not the only one who feels like this....

I just needed to share how i was feeling today.......

    You are not alone!!! I know exactly how you feel. All I can say is we need to keep pressing on. With minimal discouragement.

    We need to look to the positive it this! Although today i feel discouraged i know that i just need to increase my exercise and check back on my diary and see which food is not helping me...

    sorry to be boring but are you weighing out your portions? I'd maybe try this for a week to see if it makes any difference, estimating is not a good idea. Also are you eating all the calories from your exercise, I think the site can overestimate certain types of exercise so maybe try to keep 100-150 unused. Hope this helps

    Hi yes i am weighing all that i eat

    I dont use MFP to work out how many calories i have worked off as i think it does over estimate lol I use the wii and other tech to work out my cals :)

    We all keep on going and we will reach our goals :)

    *trying to think positive after my negative set back today!*
