yes congrats! I've been maintaining the past two weeks not purposefully, mind you, I was on my period last week so it was kind of expected there! I'm going to try to lose 6lbs in September. I really need to get my head back in the game!!

I took a week off to work through some mental health type stuff and I went out for dinner three times with friends/fiancé/family and then had a 40th birthday party on Saturday at which I drank faaaar too much and ate my bodyweight in carbs on Sunday to try to feel human again. I weighed myself on Monday morning as my first…

Thank you! As it turns out my weekend was a total write off because my little Barney took very, very not well. After being transferred through three different veterinary practices, I spent all day on Sunday in the small animal hospital waiting room. He was critical and every vet was letting us know to prepare for the…

Wish my gym did stuff like that! I'd be there all the time haha! My eldest cat doesn't mind her brothers and sister but god forbid another cat enters our garden!!

oh my gosh those photos are great! They are absolutely beautiful cats, you're very lucky! I could look at cat pictures all day long tbh. I would love to get professional pictures of mine done. Maybe one day, haha! This is the only picture I have of the four of mine on my works computer. top left > right Atlas & Barney…

Hey Danielle, nice to meet ya! I'm sure you'll lose that again so not to worry! I'm a crazy cat lady too! I have four already but I feel like I have room in my heart for another once I can convince my fiancé haha. I just looked up Zwift and that looks so cool! Let us know how you find it. I don't think it's available in…

I've just noticed your first post, I was the same last week! It was waaaaay too hot to be in my kitchen cooking so I had a little takeaway too! Whoops! Then I did my usual on Sunday and ate too much chocolate... whoops again! I've been good this week so hoping for a little loss and, if that doesn't happen, I'm good with a…

Yes Vicky, that's what's important! Ya gotta love yourself first. Even though sometimes I have a gain or maintain, I've been feeling so much better recently just in myself.

I had a gain of 0.5lbs when I weighed in last Thursday. Also need to get my head back in the game! Thinking I may move weigh ins to the weekend or Monday morning to keep me motivated.. In my head I'm like "Well I have most of the week to lose it again!" and a) doesn't usually work and b) that's not a very good attitude to…

Mostly prefer older games. I still play Pokémon, Sonic, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Tomb Raider, Mario etc. I also have every Sims game/expansion that's came out since the OG Sims game but I'm actually starting to go off it now, think I'm getting a bit old for that. I think the only newish games I play are the recent Tomb…

Hi Nadia, welcome to the group! Finding the motivation to start is the hardest part, I think. You got this girl!

Congrats on your loss! I had a long weekend with Friday and Monday off work as well. I went to the gym both days as I find that, if I've worked out, I'm more likely to "behave" with my eating. Whereas I did absolutely nothing on Sat/Sun and just mindlessly grazed on junk for most of the day. Gym again today and tomorrow so…

Well 1lb off this week when I was expecting zero isn't too bad! 5 weeks to lose another 6 seems doable if I keep my head in the game.

Hi! I feel you on the childhood weight struggles, My BED first manifested when I was about 9 or 10, I think. Hopefully MFP is the one that sticks for you, good to have you on board! You got this :)

Yes blogilates is so good too! I find so many people recommend Fitness Blender but I just can't get in to it. I need a little bit of personality to keep me going through the videos :D

Hey Sam! I know how easy it is to lose motivation, happens to me all the time so trying to keep myself together. That's a great loss though, long may it continue :smile: I have similar hours to you and I used to just work out in my living room to youtube videos (Team Body Project, personal fav) but my kitchen is being…

Super loss indeed, Tye!

Well done you! I'll need to see if I can find that to give it a try :) I went a bit offtrack from my plan this weekend so hoping I can undo any damage I did by the time I weigh in on Thursday morning! Currently in the middle of getting my kitchen renovated so pre-planning dinners and weekend meals has been horrendous. Not…

I would love to be able to do Keto, I've seen it work so well for so many people! I did low-carb for a while but I gotta say I missed bread and pasta too much haha!

All the time! It's always "oh, but one treat won't hurt..." except that once I've started I can't stop myself so it kinda does hurt :D I always appreciate the thought but damn, you know I'm trying to lose weight, couldn't you just get me flowers or something? I have a feeder in my work who I try to keep my weight loss…

Hey Raven! We have very similar stats, for height and weight anyway, I've sent a FR your way! :) Hey Mason! I like your goals, I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get there. Having a goal like that always keeps me on track so I hope the same for you. Hi Renee! Sounds like you do get a good workout there :D Once I get to…

Hi Kayleigh! We have a similar amount lost and left to lose. Good to have you on board! :)

That's the place I'm trying to get to with my ED. I know, before, my weight seemed to settle around 140-150 before I went overboard with restricting and that falls around about the ideal weight to be for my height. When I was trying to gain weight I started lifting but I was so weak that I ended up giving up haha, I wish I…

So, to start things off, I'll introduce myself. I'm Emma, I'm currently 27 and I live in the UK. I work in an office so not very active at work unfortunately and people always seem to be bringing in cakes! I try to go for a 20 minute walk before work in the morning and again during my lunch break. I like to go to the gym…
