Can I ask how many calories you were on and what exercise you were doing? I'm 6ft and really struggling again at the moment. You've done so well!!

Yeap, I have a food scale. As I said, I've lost 53lb so far, 41lb with MFP but I wasn't really exercising much at the time. I've slackened with accuracy and consistancy and the exercise just muddled me a bit. Just need to be solid on it for a few weeks.

I average at 11k steps a day and I looked back and my last month averaged 3009cal burned a day so it looks like 1800cal a day actually would be pretty good for me. I have just been nervous to think of eating more calories! (Although who knows how many more once I log precisely.) Thank you for your help.

Thank you everyone. This has all really helped. I will be making sure I weigh everything, I have no doubt slipped more than I think!

Yes, I've been losing and gaining the same 4lb (16st2lb-15st12lb) I just can't get past that bloody point. Argh. The frustration is making me try different things without giving them a chance to work really. I try to be honest with myself both with my logging and in general and looking back I've just been half assing. As I…

Fab thanks, just needed a solid answer. My brain was all over the place!

I have been using MFP since Oct 14 and I did not know this. I now feel like a real dingbat. Thanks for sharing it though!

You are insanely gorgeous! What an incredible job you've done, I'm completely fan girling on you right now! Love your Gryffindor hoodie and your fantastic new dress too <3 Seriously well done.

I relate to you so much! I was nearly 300lb when I started (47lb left to go) and I feel you with the hair! You are absolutely gorgeous and I love your style- The red check dress you're wearing is on my "Buy when get to goal" list :) Seriously well done.

You look fantastic! Well done to you for working so hard and getting closer to what you want :)

Ooh and MFP must have gotten my calorie goal wrong!

You look gorgeous! Well done to you, amazing job!

As so many people said: "I don't have the time!" Whether I was working full time or then a stay a home mum, yet I'd manage to have hours in front of the tv at some point or another. Also it takes no time to eat less and cooking from scratch really doesn't take that long. "The nearest gym is 30min drive away and I can't…

That's so helpful! Thank you very much!

35lb down, 55lb to go.

You look incredible! What an amazing job :) I'm also 6ft, I was just wondering what your calories/typical food looks like? I'm 35lb down in a year but that's the part I'm struggling with! (My starting weight on here was 266)

Super cool!! One of the many rewards to getting slim! The second part would be my challenge, although if I get skinny enough to dress as Harley Quinn I'm sure my husband would humour me ;)

<3

This is such a brilliant thread! I'm 6ft, highest weight was 278lb. I don't clearly know my size because I lived in leggings! I think I was around 20/22- snug! I'm now 231lb and I put on size 16 (UK) skinnys straight from the dryer this morning and didn't have a muffin top! It's so interesting to see the size 10s and 8s…

You are so beautiful! What were your calories like? I have absolutely zero idea of how to start a sugar free diet. Also how tall are you? I can't believe how quickly you've lost! I've been at it since Oct 14 and only 35lb down. I'm in awe.

You are just so gorgeous. You've done such a phenominal job.

Wow! What an emormous difference! Was this purely through weights, do you follow a particular programme? What sort of deficit are you eating at? Also how tall are you? So much kudos to you, amazing job.

Wow, amazing change! Well done you! Your tummy has just disappeared! That's my real problem area, what are your cals and workout if you don't mind me asking? I'm so impressed :) Ooh also, how tall are you?

Thank you :)

Thank you so much everybody! Seriously :)

That is the coolest thing ever!! Well done, you are incredible!!

Oh my goodness guys, it's going to go back to before size with how inflated I'm going to get! Thank you so much, I am so pleased! Although I definately don't have the physique yet @spacelump :) Getting there.

What a wonderful feeling that must be :)

Thank you guys, that really means the world to me! You can definately do it!

Holy moly!!! That's amazing! What was your calorie goal and exercise ect? Well done!
