    Hello. Just be patient with the weight loss it will happen . You just have to be determined. Use the diaries. You need to look at it as a new way of eating not dietng. If you don't look at it in a different way when you go off "The Diet" it comes back. Look at food for a day not a meal. Portion size is a key. I don't have a I can't have list. If I want something I just figure a way to fit it my calores for the day. You can do this, this site would not be popular if it didn't. I am maintaining my weight now and still log everyday.

    welcome back! :flowerforyou: In the year and a 1/2 I've been on this sight I've learned to focus more on getting healthy than on how much the scale is moving... feel free to add me. I love mom friends... and I love horses too. I used to ride competitively when I was younger, but sadly had to give it up when I went away to university and have never had a chance to get back to it. :cry:

I am also looking for any new friends to share their tips, highs and lows of their dieting experience x I have the mobile app, but do log online at home at least a couple of times a day. xx

    Feel free to add me :) I'm doing the weight loss thing slowly so that I'll keep it off. I don't eat perfectly and I do have treats but so far it's been working for me.

    guess im in the right place. my sisters and I made a bet to who can lose the most at the beginning of this year. my sister found the app and introduced me to it. With the initial motiviation i was doing great and losing lbs at a steady pace. Unfortunately, i lost my motivation along the way. :( after a recent doctors visit, I was challenged to try again, so im here to prove it to the dr, everyone (and myself) that i can do it.

    anyone feel free to add me. i enjoy meeting new people and making new friends.

    I love this! I am trying to get used to this way of thinking but it takes a while to break old habits. I know that I will get there and be better for it too!
    You can add me if you like. I am on everyday - under or over my calories I face it all!
    Good luck!

    just saying hello )) used to do a bit of horseback riding myself and hope to do some more... when I lose a bit of weight!
    was a bit disheartened myself after the first month here - I think those kgs used to fall off quicker before... well I guess age is a factor here as well. just turned 40 this august! ouch.
    anyway... feel free to add me, anyone.

    welcome back. its easy to lose motivation when dieting! its sometimes about timing! ive been dieting for years now and its taken aaaaages to lose the weight 4yrs for 174pounds so maybe a break was the best thing at the time so you could figure out if you were ready :) xxx

    I'm back after a hiatus myself.... I would love to be your friend! We can help each other! I just posted "been MIA for over a year... had a baby" under the 'introduce yourself' forum. Good luck - you can't fail if you keep trying! <--- that's my motto this time!
