This is my first week starting again the 2nd time round. I also have anxiety, depression & pain issues. I find the mutual support on MFP very encouraging.😀 Setting small goals & starting with small changes also helps.

@suzesvelte thank you... I did say no to the xy&z... I got a very questioning look.."what, no potatoe or rice?" All went well in the end & everyone happy. Still had to guess weights but that will come with ptactice .

Thanks Lynda... I think I'm on day 4 of tracking. Going ok but it's Saturday in my part of the world., weekends are usually where I muck up. Tonight we are eating dinner with my inlaws so just doing my best for tracking.

Add me if you like. 😁

Well done!

Thank you so much everyone for your insight & encouragement. It has really helped to get me going. Just got back from a good walk.. looking quite red faced now. Looking forward to some yummy lunch & I already know whats for dinner. 😃😃🤗

Ok... I have tracked my first day and am not hungry. The goal for tomorrow... track for a second day! 😉

LeeH31 thank you. Yes I am short... just shy of 5 ft 🤗

Have tracked my first day of food.. yay!

Ok... I've changed it but it only added 10 calories.

Not weighing yet but know I must. 47 female. 90kg (198pd) ok seeing that in pounds is disturbing!!!! Last time I started at a similar weight & was allocated a higher amount of cals & as I lost weight it lowered to 1200 kj. Now I've entered my current weight but the 1200 cal is the same... does that sound right?

Hi everyone... hope you're all having a great day!

Hi there... I have PTSD & have good days & bad days but my hubby has noticed that a week or so before my period I get very depressed. I will have moments of feeling desperate, where I don't quite know what to do. I am learning to recognise these & get through them knowing it will pass. At home my hubby will remind me that…

Hi Miriam welcome to MFP. I'm 46 & live in NZ. I'm down 37lbs & am about halfway to my goal. Feel free to add me. :)

Good on you! :-)

Hello from China! I might have to try that - prelogging :)[/quote] Let us know how you get on! :-)

Good morning from NZ. I'm feeling a bit happier today. It's my 2nd day that I have pre logged my food the night before. I feel so much less pressure. I pre log when I'm in the mood, nice & relaxed. The next day I don't have the panic about what to eat or how much to eat, will I have enough cals/kjs left if I'm hungry at…

Hi... I'm 46... I have lost some weight already and am about halfway through my weight loss journey. I was anorexic in my late teens & am now at the other end of the scale. My mind feels like it is in a constant battle to find a balance.

Hi, I was 5'1 but have lost an inch in height... stink! I started at around 211lb and am now at 175lb. :-)

You could put on a clothing swap. Get all your friends to bring clothes in good condition that they don't want anymore then you all have a rummage and maybe a cuppa and take home your picks for free. Donate whatevers left. :-)

I think MFP will be my life long friend to keep me on track! :-)

Hellooo!!! :-)

A good sense of humour will take you far! :-)

Hi there... I'm 45 & I started at 212 lbs and am now 182 lbs with a long way to go... feel free to add me. :-)

Congrats on a successful first week! :-)

New Zealand!!! :-) :-) :-)

Low cal sweet treats sounds good! Welcome! :-)

Welcome aboard.... enjoy the journey! :-)
