i have recently enrolled on this following a work colleague loosing 15 kgs and raving about the results. It is proving difficult to stick to The plan but I really want to loose a few pounds. Would love to hear your success stories so far as I am going to need some encouragement.

    Hi! Welcome to MFP.

    When you say difficult to stick to the plan, is it because you are getting hungry a lot? How many calories are you allowing yourself each day? Open up your diary to everybody, somebody may be able to give some good ideas.

    This is a great site, best one :drinker:

    Heyyyyyyyy :) I ws incredibly sceptical about this site but i've found it to be the best one out there! And it works, i've gained alot of muscle and cut out so much crap that i was eting, so although i'm not sheading many pounds, i'm losing inches.
    Its amazing how much more you think of what you're eating when you have to log it all lol

    I found MFP at the beginning of March. I've lost 37 lbs. The site has been a great tool for tracking inputs (calories eaten) and outputs (exercise) and for meeting other people with similar goals. It doesn't go out and run for me, but it's been very helpful. I use it to plan my food for the day, which helps immensely when it comes time to decide what I'm going to eat.

    And you've found the Man to Man group, so you are all set :wink:

    Hey guys, Sorry I have been pretty incommunicado. Just as I said sticking to the plan is the most difficult thing when life gets in the way. I am back on the gym for another go.

    Thanks for the words of encouragement.

    I am aiming to loose 20 Kgs in total. Let the games commence...
