Hello everyone,

I've recently since July 1st lost and gained 10kg. In short there are many lifestyle reasons for this but I'm not a quitter. My goal is to get to 65kg but 1st begin the trend which I had for 2 months of losing via food and lots of training. I think we can all possibly help eachother sharing our experiences. I will give more details of my history, recent journey and end goals. I will try to log in and encourage everyone as much as I can. I'm not really a social media type person but I think this forum is a way for encouragement and accountability for us all. I think the more i write about my flaws the easier it will be to put my finger or you guys on ways forward.


I'm about 85kg 184cm. Im Male, I've always been fit but my peak which is based on middle distance runners of my height is my goal as I want to be very lean, strong, fast, agile and mobile, hence 65kg target.y recent journey began July 1st 84.5kg and new gym membership all good losing approx 0.75-1kg a week for 5-6 weeks. August 14th I'm 79.5kg travelled abroad/back home got to 75.5kg on 1st September then travelled on 11th to 5 star hotel waiting for a new work visa .I got as low as 73kg in early September but after being stuck abroad at a 5 star hotel waiting for a visa for 6 days 😋 the food was great too good to resist I tried my best to skip lunch and train but anyhow, got back to work life Sept 18th at about 79-81kg but sharing a car and biking for 1st time, the car sharing I didn't realise had a major impact on when I trained and ate and i would often not be bothered to bike to the gym as I was tired from work but also hungry so i would eat then sleep then eat to try to get energy to do things but probably overate , which is what i do (overeat) , ive been doing this even when I was doing great in UK at my lowest 73kg however i was training close to 6 hours daily as I had no work so maybe I have had a bigger underlying problem since I travelled on 14th of August, before which I would train once or twice then eat a salad and main meal and just have lots of fluids. I joined a cycling,Triathelete and running clubs recently to self motivate. I decided from today to stop car sharing on the way back at least and not go directly home after work 4pm , instead either go gym or do some other work or business related desk studies, worst case if im in need of a nap i can. But what i cant do at work as easily is binge eat and the gym is 5mins away. I've been as low as 79.5 on 12th October and as high as 86kg on 16th. This needs to stop and I need to gain control back. I've even paid for a calorie counted diet for a month amongst other things to make myself feel full etc, when I think most of my problem was mindless eating i.e bad habits and cravings. Not actual hunger. I hope for better reports in the near future firstly control of my eating habits,2. stop to the weight increase and huge fluctuations , 2. A steady decrease 3 reaching of my goals😁. Wow that was long😂 must have burned a few calories writing this. This is of the back of pushing myself for a late night swim and 50km cycle.😬. I don't know how to add people am not very Social media savy but i will try my best to be active on this forum and encourage others in a non judgemental way like I would like for myself. I hope we all reach our goals. I think this could be the 1st step back for us all in this renewed journey. I read everyone's post and see that we all have been on the journey and succeeded before so we have it in us all we need now is perseverance despite any obstacles we face. I hope we all succeed.

Feel free to add me too. I have no friends on mfp yet

I have a long way to go and can use the motivation. I'm an active member looking for friends I can motivate and vice versa

I'm currently working off the 80 pounds I've gained slowly over the course of 2 years. Feel free to add me!

I believe I started about 3 yrs ago. At first I lost 40 pounds and I also fell back and became pregnant and gained it all back. Losing weight is always on my mind. It’s definitely consumed me. Since then I’ve been on and off from mfp and honestly at the beginning of my journey it was a HUGE part of it. I’m here for some newer pals, accountability and motivation!! staura10 LETS DO THIS PALS!!!

I could use some more active motivated friends. I have been a mfp user for a long time but maybe within the past year have really focused on using it more. I was doing good and had lost 30lbs and almost 10%body fat and then I got sick. After 6 months I gained it all back and more. I recently found out I had a liver and kidney infection causing my thyroid and heart to over work and I also found out I’m allergic to corn and chicken which caused an unnatural amount of water retention. With the infection gone and staying away from corn I am back on track. I am trying to be very active on here posting daily statuses, commenting on posts, posting my daily diary and exercises.
