Just 42, had a baby 2 and a half yrs ago. I put on 3 st in baby weight. Lost 21 pounds and now I'm stuck. Got another 14/21 pounds to lose. Been logging on fitness pal for 3 weeks and I've lost about 2lbs. It'll take ages at that rate!!!

I have accepted that I'm having an off day. Stressed at work and feeling tired, I've found it hard to focus on what I'm eating. I've gone 200 calories over (1400). But that's still 400 calories under..... Tomorrow will be a new day.

My son is my most supportive person in all aspects of my life (apart from tidying his bedroom!). Apart from him, I hate to say it but....myself. Once I get into the flow of calorie counting I'm pretty good. I think it's really important to be forgiving and accept that I will have off days. I try to be good 80% of the time,…

Don't log yesterday, it will only make you feel guilty and be a permanent reminder that you had too much. We all have off days, it's just one day in history now, its gone. Carry on trying as usual from today. When one off day turns into a week, that's when you should be concerned. One day is only 24 hours, it's nothing.…

I'm going to wear my wardrobe of size 10 clothes, the ones that used to fit me 3 years ago....

I wish! My boyfriend makes it very clear when he's not happy about my appearance. He says he would want me to tell him if he was gaining weight too. Not being funny but I'm a size 12 and 10st, 5 ft 3. I used to be a size 10 and 8 1/2 stone before I had a baby 2 yrs ago. I've had all sorts of precious compliments from him…

I made shortbread with my toddler girl. We halved the ingredients to make a half batch, and then made the shortbread biscuits tiny so there was only 78 calories in one. Good for her and me!

Going sledging in the snow with my sister and dad, on my mum's baking trays. We got told off for denting the trays, and my dad ripped his flares (yes it was the late 70s). Such freedom and fun!
