Im after more than just a MyFitnessPal friend. I also have lipodemia and do the low carb way of eating. I would like a accountable buddy instead. What way of eating are you using and is that a idea for us to motivate each other. I'm based in Australia

You are only 1 week into this. How long have you been overweight, and is only 1 week enough time to reverse it? Sadly this is not a quick fix, it is a lifestyle change. You may need to get fat adapted being many weeks before your body will react. I have constantly tweeked my carb grams over time to see how my body reacts.…

over 3 years ago I gave up and thought my lot in life was I had to accept I will always be a big person. Then i gained 20lb in 6 months & walking started to be hard & it scared me, I didn't want to loose my mobility. So I looked for something different that I had never tried so I would get my health back. I was out of…

love you are keeping it simple. Yes logging is the key as being focused. its done one step at a time, one decision at a time, and many days its multiple decisions multiple times of the day. Keep it up. Im 90lb down & 100 to go.

well done. all the hard work worth it.
