Hi All - silly question. If I want to reply or comment on a post - how do I copy the post I want to comment on to my reply? Thanks so much 🤗

Hi there - I have just re-started. I’m 56 (almost 57) I’ve got 25 pounds to loose which I am hoping to do this year. I’m looking for support friends too 😊 love to follow and be a support buddy to you. Sarah

Hi @gemwolf110 - that first date sounded like a bit of a disappointment, but from what I hear it’s a bit of a numbers game, you just have to be willing to keep trying. I’ve got friends who have met their partners online, it just took a bit of time to find the right one. I agree with you - it’s nice when the guy offers to…

Hi @gemwolf110 thanks for the welcome. Wow what a great effort with the trees. It lets loads more light in for you and creates lot of extra space. The huskies might be a bit disappointed 😂 you’ll be able to see what they are up to though! I need to get into some planned exercise. I’ve got a busy corporate job and I’ve let…

Hi All - I’m new on this group. WW, Noom and Jenny Craig veteran 😂. Around 20 pounds to loose. I’ve really enjoyed reading the discussions- looking forward to being a part of this. Thanks @cbabie for starting this great group. Have a good day all - Sarah

Hi All - I’m joining in today. 😊 Sarah from Auckland New Zealand

I am totally with you. You sounds like you’ve done very well in WW though. I’ve had dozens of tries at WW and it seems very slow - especially with all the new zero point foods. For someone like me it’s very easy to over do it. I like the advice on the calorie targets at 1200 being quite low. I thought I would budget for…

Hi - I use the APP “Calm” it is an amazing APP I’ve used it for years. Tamara Levett does the best meditations in this APP (in my opinion). There is one called Panic SOS it’s just 10 mins and I use it daily just to level myself out and feel better. Also, taking a hot drink outside to the garden, turning my phone onto “do…

Hi All - jumping onto this thread for the first time. I'm 53 from Auckland NZ - looking to loose 1 pound per week in July. Its moving into the coldest part of winter here now - not that 8 degrees Celsius is that cold compared to other places with real seasons 🙂. Good luck all - Sarah

Hi there- I'm keen to join you. I've tried EVERYTHING, including MFP a good few times, but not ready to give up. I'm located in Auckland New Zealand. 17.5kg (about 35 pounds) to lose to get to goal. Sarah 🙂

need to be kept in the original message. Hope this helps.[/quote] Thanks @evie1958 and @SuzyQ113 and @barbiecat Really appreciate this advice 😊 Sarah x

Pipcd34 - wow! What an amazing workout. Great calorie burn! I wish that was me too 😊

Hi All - can someone tell me how to reply to a specific post that someone makes - if I am reading posts that people added say 1 or 2 days ago? I know that I can send them a message which I think is private, but if I just want to put in a reply that everyone can see, is there a way of doing this? Thanks 😊 I am a bit of an…

Morning lovely ladies, just finished my first week (of many previous attempts). I.4 kg loss (I think it equates to about 3 pounds). Much of it will be fluid I know - but I'll take it 😂😂. Lovely sunny crisp spring day here in Auckland New Zealand. Have a great day all Sarah x

Good morning ladies I am aiming for a 1200 calorie day today - just putting it out there to.make myself more accountable 😊. Such good advice that I was given to walk on the spot at home while i am tasks that involved standing still...thanks for that good piece of advice. When I put a bit of.effort into.it it gets my heart…

Thanks SuziQ - good strategies for me to put in place. I am a stress eater also, eating when I am a bit unsettled or angry/ frustrated is so hardwired into my brain. I know I can change though. I like the idea of 10 min bouts of exercise, and the meal prepping. Thanks for sharing these tips with me! Sarah

Hi All - I have just figured out how to post in this thread - I think :-). I posted this morning about the lovely breakfast my husband brings me each morning, and realized I had created a whole new discussion topic under the Motivation & Support category!! how embarrassing!!! - a few nice women have put in some sweet…

Hi All - I would love to join this group if it isn't too late? Realizing we are almost at the end of Sept. I'm just starting out with 11 kg to lose as my first milestone. I think it's about 23 pounds. Really enjoying reading the threads and seeing how you all support each other 😊 Sarah

Hi - I would love to join the group - I'm 52, 5ft 7, we are in kg over here so I am 75.5 kg (166.5 pounds). I have literally tried everything to lose weight. I have a stressful job and sweet tooth, so at the end of a tough day I often eat sweets in the car on the way home and snack when I get home to wind down. It's a bad…

I think men seem to respond better to weight loss through excercise than women (just my experience) I have lost about 30 pounds and did it through calorie deficit. I have tried many times to lose weight by excercise and being sensible with food. It just didn't work for me. The harder I worked out the more hungry I became…
