Oh, interesting, I did not know this. I'm not too caught up in daily fluctuations on the scale but thanks for the heads up!

I'm eating roughly 1,200 calories a day, this is the figure MFP generated for me based on my height and weight loss goals

Thank you all for the advice so far! Just to clarify - I really do enjoy the "healthy" foods I cook. And I've stuck to low carbs so far mainly because I find it easier to stay under 1,200 that way. I genuinely want to be healthier but I'm talking about the few times a week I get cravings for stuff. It's currently popcorn,…

Hi everyone! I'm Dammy and I'm from the UK. I'm 21 and have about 30-50 pounds to lose. I tried C25K a couple of months ago when I started my weight loss journey and gave up on about day 3. I started again and I'm on day 2 and feeling a lot better about it. Think the 7kg I've lost helps and running sooo much slower, like…

I always get the bmi calculations wrong, didn't realise I was only 30 pounds away from healthy! Of course, I'm just using that baseline - I'll keep going until I'm feeling 100% fit and healthy. I only really exercise 5 out of the 7 days a week and standard calorie burn is 600 which I think is reasonable. My exercising is…

Thanks for the info so far! Of course, I'm trying to keep to my calorie goal - I want a sustainable loss but just wondering what happens when I don't. Some days I get to the end of the day realise I'm a 100 under and I hate eating to fill a goal.... I'm currently at 82 kg, I'm 5ft 5 and have about 50 pounds left to lose…

Hello! These forums are so great, discovered them this week and they've been a massive help. For me, there are so many times I don't feel motivated. On those days, I rely on discipline. I have routine I follow so it's basically just muscle memory. You've done this before and you can do it again! Feel free to add me as a…

My current favourite is the Mattesson's roast chicken fridge raiders. I have the little snack packets which only have 47 calories in them. They're so delicious but very moreish so I only have them when I'm out of the house - so I'm not tempted to have more than one packet!!

Yes, I'll join this! I had set myself the slightly unrealistic target of 14 pounds (a stone) by the 1st July but this sounds more attainable. Let's do this

I had about 5 days of eating badly for my birthday weekend last month and I was really angry at myself. But I just had to draw a line under it and start again. Very few people get to a stage where they are unhappy with their bodies because of one bad choice, it is usually a life time of making bad choices. Therefore, to…

Hi I'm not necessarily doing keto but I'm doing low carb e.g. I've cut out all refined carbs - pasta, bread, rice, etc. I'm really active on MFP too, feel free to add me!

Another UK member! I'm on a very low deficit calorie intake but I'm happy to support anyone through their different goals. Feel free to add me xx

Hey! What are your goals? Xx

Thank you all for replying! Turns out there are high quality scales in my University gym for a small 20p charge. Used that and got an accurate reading, it's exactly where I thought I should be so I'm happy. Going to take your advice and weigh once a week at the same time but my focus will be on my measurements. Thank you…

I'm down for this! Anyone is free to add me, I'll help to keep you accountable x

So this is my first post but I've been on MFP for a while and could use some friends who are in this too! I have my sister's wedding end of Summer and I really want to look good for it. Also want to be fitter. Please feel free to add me!! We can do this together
