Hi, I'm doing the 5:2 diet, making sure I log everything on here. I've found the trick is not going over 2000 calories on the 5 days! It's quite hard on the light days, but food tastes so good on the other days! It's certainly made me more aware of portion sizes.

Nice one, RaeBee! I'm doing the alcohol-free thing too. It's not too bad with my meal, but the lack of a 5pm drinkie rankles a bit. I'm feeling a lot healthier, though. " Let water be my potion!"

I'm in too. So glad to find other people struggling with this. I'm not an alcoholic, but I do usually drink every day and it is definitely slowing my weight loss. I'm sure I'll find other benefits as well!

Okay with the no alcohol, but ran out of other food and had bread... Still under calory goal, and I've planned next week's food!

Back again! Managing the no alcohol or bread, have cracked and had a few things with sugar in them today. Still, my weight is the lowest it's been this year, so I'm pretty happy!

Hello, all! I'm in! I'm doing NOvember (= no alcohol, no sugar, no bread and no junk not covered in that!). I have been stalled in my weight loss for a few months and need to be a bit drastic...)

We've got fruit bats here this week, wheeling overhead in their hundreds as I go for an evening walk. ( I haven't got pooped on yet, despite my fears lol )

Don't lose heart, cp! It all takes time! ( And I think you look lovely in your photo

Mangoes! Yum! I love stone fruit season...cherries, peaches, nectarines. Raspberries, passionfruit, pineapple: they are all great!

Thanks for the answer, fraserkr! I will sort it out eventually...

Hi, I don't have this problem with my new Fitbit Charge HR but neither my husband nor I can work out how the fitbit calorie adjustment in MFP actually works. We have read the Learn More page that talks about projected calorie adjustment based on instantaneous synced values etc but it doesn't make a lot of sense. Can…

First day sticking to calorie goals after two weeks of visitors and festive fare. Very happy! My lentil dinner was actually delicious...

It actually depresses me, because I see a weight that I still think is too heavy in 5 weeks time... Oh, the dreary wait!

I'm a casual (supply) teacher, secondary, currently on summer holidays here in Australia. Include me! I've just been on this since January 1, and two weeks in am getting a little tired of calculating how many calories I have left today...

Encouraging to hear lots of knee and foot problems are relieved with weight loss... I'm hoping for this!

Count me in! 49 in a week, Australian, 11-13 kilos to lose.
