Thanks everyone. So weight loss aside, is the consensus that it doesn't matter if my 'sugar' intake goes way over goal (from fruit only) if my overall calories are at goal or below?

Where possible yes, though I'm not weighing every piece of fruit.

No amount of exercise will get rid of saggy skin I'm afraid. Shape wear is the answer (I had 2 c-sections).

How old were you when you were super-skinny? If it was younger than 21 then I'm afraid you hadn't actually fully grown into your body at that point. In 20 years time you will look at photos of yourself as you are now and not believe that you ever thought of yourself as too heavy. I wasted my early 20s thinking I was too…

I've opened up my diary in case anyone wants to look & comment. ThaNks!

I am so motivated and having no trouble sticking to it, recording everything and yes weighing everything on digital scales. I suspect any day now I'll have a whoosh of weight loss after no change for 8 days but heck it's frustrating!

Ps today I told my husband I felt like eating donuts for breakfast since eating well isn't doing me any good.

No help but sympathy! I am 45 and finding the same thing. MFP tells me if I eat 5014 Kj a day I will lost .08 kg a week and I am losing nothing even though I'm eating considerably less than I used to, and very healthily - no alcohol, chocolate, bread... Help!
