1.5kg in 10 days. I'm very pleased with the loss. I'm annoyed I let my weight creep back up that high. This is weight I already lost last year, but this time it feels much more sustainable. Hopefully I'm a bit wiser for it! Good luck everyone 05/23 = 66.5kg 05/24 = 66.25 05/25 = 66 05/26 = 66 - 05/27 = 65.5 05/28 = 65.5 -…

Had a good week, lots of activity, but a bit of indulgence over weekend too. Balance, but still heading in the right direction 5/22 - SW: 146.5 (66.5kg) 5/29 - 144.5 (65.5) 6/5 - 6/12 - 6/19 - 6/22 - ONE MONTH 6/26 - GW: 138.5 (62.5kg)

A bit of indulgent weekend, but an active one too. Slight increase, feeling bloated from last night's beer... but still feeling good. 05/23 = 66.5kg 05/24 = 66.25 05/25 = 66 05/26 = 66 - 05/27 = 65.5 05/28 = 65.5 - 05/29 = 65.5 - 05/30 = 65.75 05/31 06/01 * Because I'm not using electronic scales its hard to be exact with…

Managed to have a fun and tasty Saturday night. Went over my base calorie goal, but still within allowance once exercise added. Got to have some indulgences. Doing well! 05/23 = 66.5kg 05/24 = 66.25 05/25 = 66 05/26 = 66 - 05/27 = 65.5 05/28 = 65.5 - 05/29 05/30 05/31 06/01 * Because I'm not using electronic scales its…

But still moving in the right direction, yay! 05/23 = 66.5kg 05/24 = 66.25 05/25 = 66 05/26 = 66 05/27 = 65.5 05/28 05/29 05/30 05/31 06/01 * Because I'm not using electronic scales its hard to be exact with small movements, so I'm only using increments of 1/4 kg

Where in the world are you??

I'd suggest you take stock of how it affects you. As others have said: there's no calorific value. Some studies/rumours suggest the sweet taste but lack of calories confuses the body and increases cravings for sweetness. So be aware of your own response. It does have caffeine which may disrupt sleep. Tiredness can cause…

New Zealand we call an elevator a lift, like the Brits. But we also use lift to mean to travel as a passenger in a car or other vehicle. It's a synonym to "ride" "Can I get a lift to work?" "Sure, I'll pick you up" "Do you need a ride?" "No, I'll get a lift with John" Not sure of that usage is particular to NZ or NZ/OZ, or…

Where is the before pic taken? Spain? Congrats on making a start.

I guess you have to make a call as to where these comments are coming from based on the people making them. Yes, you should ignore anyone who is just talking out of envy, spite or their own body issues, BUT, if your friends and family are telling you you've lost enough weight and are speaking from a place of love then you…

While we're having a whinge ;-) I get sick of the threads that along the lines of "post something about the person above" in the general help forum. I don't see the point of these threads anyway and especially not if they are in the general feed, but, hey ho.

I've found weight loss to be a SIMPLE process (CICO - Calories In, Calories Out), but I wouldn't call it EASY.

Sorry, this is a bit late Screen name: IVYLYON Goal for August 31st: 57kg July 22nd (starting weight): 60kg July 29th: 59.25 August 5th: 58.5 August 12th: August 19th: August 26th: August 31st: <<57>>

I've started Ripped in 30 (similar format of strength/cardio/abs) ,might mix in with some 30DS and she has a ripped with weights (??) one too I might try.

Hey 2lbs in 2 weeks isn't bad. It's a loss and a loss on vacation is a win in my book!

Firstly, it must be very frustrating so well done on sticking with it and don't give up. I read this recently and found it very interesting (link below).A study on Biggest Loser contestants found that their metabolism after losing weight is significantly lower than might be expected even years after losing weight, which…

SSRIs can mess with your weight. Serotonin gets stored in the gut and when you take SSRIs it can throw you out of whack and mess with your appetite. (I gained 45 pounds from SSRIs) Talk to your doctor before you stop taking the meds, but two things that might help are 1.exercise, it's great for helping depression,…

If you really want vanilla flavoured coffee what about adding vanilla extract yourself instead of the Starbucks vanilla syrup cream. You can get a small bottle and keep it in your desk, or car etc...maybe not as convenient but got to be better for you.

Okay, I had to Google what a white chocolate mocha is... Ice, Milk, White Chocolate Mocha Sauce [Sugar, Condensed Skim Milk, Coconut Oil, Cocoa Butter, Natural Flavor, Salt, Potassium Sorbate, Monoglycerides], Brewed Espresso, Whipped Cream [Cream (Cream, Milk, Mono And Diglycerides, Carrageenan), Vanilla Syrup (Sugar,…

Not sure where you are getting your numbers from but the actual goal is 5kgs in 5 weeks. Yes, it's a challenge, which is the point of the group, but 1 kg per week is certainly possible and within MFP parameters. No one has suggested fasting, and certainly not for 20 days. If you really think such extreme methods are the…

Day 29 done...!
