Hi again everyone. I know I went MIA last month and it’s only because I’ve really struggled to get back on the wagon. My motivation has been pretty much non existent and my snacking out of control. I’ve pretty much gained everything I worked so hard to lose 😫 this whole COVID thing plus winter has got me so lazy and I…

Hi ladies, joining you all once again. I haven’t been on since April. I lost my phone that month (after turning my house upside down I came to the conclusion that my twins threw it in the bin and the garbage truck took it the next day without me realising it). I lost all my logins to everything I had and mfp was one of…

Sunday is my official weigh in day but I decided to weigh in today just to see how I’m going and I’ve gained over a kilo in less than a week. I’m putting it down to being premenstrual plus my week hasn’t been very good food wise and I haven’t been able to exercise the last two days as we’ve been so busy with our yard. This…

It’s been a busy weekend for me. We decided to get back into owning chickens. We haven’t had chickens since moving interstate about 4 years ago. Now is the perfect time to have some and it’s been crazy trying to acquire some live poultry. This virus has made everyone nuts and chickens seem to be sold out everywhere. We’ve…

Name: Susana Age: 32 Height: 167cm (5’4”) SW: 101.3kg (223.3lbs) CW: 92.1kg (203lbs) GW for April: 90kgs (198.4lbs) I’m so glad there’s a new April group to follow on from last month, thank you Raven for setting this up. This group has been my saving grace by keeping me accountable and by seeing everyone’s progress and…

Final weigh in for this month! It’s been a tough month for all of us, especially with all the changes to our lifestyles that we’ve all had to adapt to. I’m glad this month is over and I’m looking forward to a new month, hopefully April will be a better month for us all. So onto my stats: SW 26 JAN 101.3kg (223.3lbs) Mar SW…

Firstly, sending hugs and good vibes to you all. This month is certainly a difficult one for us all. It’s been really interesting reading what everyone is experiencing in regards to this virus. The cases here in Australia continue to increase with each passing day. States have started to close their borders and there is…

@Tarzan37 Happy birthday!!! @bluffgirl67 I’m so sorry to hear about your mum. Sending lots of love and strength your way. To everyone else, I’m sorry to hear about how everyone is facing/dealing with the COVID pandemic. It’s hit hard everywhere. I’ve a family of 6 kids plus my husband and myself and trying to get in to do…

Just want to start off by saying thank you to all you lovely ladies about your words of encouragement and understanding towards my post about my emotional binge on Friday. It seems that although I had quite a binge I still somehow managed to lose weight this week, 1.2kg (2.6lbs) to be exact! So my stats are as follows: SW…

Just need to vent. I’ve had a terrible day. My husband decided to diy a concrete path all around the house. He’s halfway done and has just been in a horrible mood taking it out on us all. So naughty me binged on potato chips and I’m feeling really terrible about it. I’m probably way over my calories for the day and I’m…

Just wanted to do a final update. Since my last post when I’d purchased my new scales saying I’d gained 2kg (4.4lbs), I’ve since lost 1.5kg (3.3lbs). So I’m quite sure that was a lot of retained water most likely due to my increase in calorie intake and adding strength training to my workout routine. Something I never…

Hello everybody!! So glad to be here, to continue this journey with all you lovely ladies. It’s officially March here in Australia, new month, fresh start. My weight for February got skewed thanks to my scales going wonky and getting a new set, but I’m happy with the start weight for the month. My stats: SW 101.3kg…

@BrownSugar174 my sodium has been really good, it was one of my goals to get that under control and Ive done that. Just going back through my diary entries I’ve noticed I’ve gone over just a little on mono and poly unsaturated fats. That’s one area I need to work on but I haven’t gone way over my limit either. I’m…

Feeling pretty disappointed ladies. So after my last post saying my scales went crazy I finally bought a new one today. Of course me being all excited to see if there’s been any change I jumped on. I’ve gained 2 kg (4.4lbs) 😩 I don’t know what I’ve done to gain so much weight in such little time. In the last week I went…

@Aerohead21 I feel your frustration. My scale broke since my last post. It decided to whack out and give me a different reading every time I stepped on it and it was out by a good couple of kilos. It’s even more frustrating as today it’s one month since I started my journey and I really wanted to see where I’m at one month…

@BrownSugar174 and @mmdeveau for your responses to my post. I really needed to hear it and have that reassurance that what I’m doing is ok. I’m well aware that slow and steady weight loss is the way to go and I most certainly don’t want to be dropping the weight so quickly either. These massive weight losses I keep seeing…

I can never keep up with this thread! There’s so many posts up everyday. I do try my best to read all posts and even though I don’t reply believe me that I’m here either cheering for you or sending virtual hugs your way. Weigh in day today OW 101.3kg (223.3lbs) SW 99.1kg (218.4lbs) CW 95.1kg (209.6lbs) Total loss for this…

@KristinaPS713 I’m still in my first month of this journey so I’m weighing in daily just to see how my body is responding. More of a curiosity kind of thing. My official weigh in day is Sunday (as that’s the day I started on this journey) and that’s the weight I really count at the end of the week. Hoping to decrease the…

@pamiede you go girl!!! That’s so fantastic and inspirational! @BrownSugar174 that’s an interesting question and I’m curious to hear everyone’s answers. I’ll be entering my 4th week tomorrow so don’t have an answer myself yet. @bluffgirl67 you’ve got me drooling lol! Enjoy! Today is my official weigh in day. I posted…

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone. It was Valentine’s Day here yesterday (I’m in Australia). I’d be doing so well this week, even getting two workouts in a day most days. Well yesterday everything went out the window. After planning all my meals for the day I was close to my calorie allowance for the day. I ended up having a…

Hi I’m almost 5 months postpartum with baby number 6. I’ve only just entered into my 3rd week and have no clue also. I’m just eating a lot healthier, counting calories and exercising (treadmill and a workout video on YouTube). I’ve lost 3.4kg (7.5 lbs) so far. Hopefully someone who has more of an idea of what to do will…

Yesterday was my weigh in day and I commented that I hadn’t lost much. My thinking for that was that Aunt Flo had paid me a visit that week. Well yesterday was her last day here. I weighed in this morning to see if my period had had any effect on my weight loss. Well lo and behold I lost 600grams overnight (1.3 lbs).…

Love reading all the updates on here and seeing all the support and motivation everyone gives to each other. I get so excited for you all when I see how you’re all progressing. Today is weigh in day for me. OW 101.3kg (223.3 lbs) 26 January 2020 SW 99.1kg (218.4 lbs) CW 98.5kg (217.1 lbs) Not a huge loss this week but I…

Love seeing how everyone is so motivated in their own journeys and really supportive of others. It’s Tuesday here where I am. On Sunday hubby bought me an Apple Watch to track all my fitness as an early Valentine’s Day gift lol. That day I wore a pair of shoes I’ve been meaning to throw out and as a result I ended up with…

Today marks one week since beginning my weight loss journey. Weighed myself this morning and I’ve lost 2.3kg/ 5lbs this week. I’m so happy and feeling even more motivated to continue.

Can I join? Stats SW 223lbs CW 218lbs GW 150 This is all new to me. I just started this Sunday gone as my hubby purchased a treadmill for me. I’ve had 6 kids and no time or motivation to do anything for myself. I’m now super determined and in the mindset to lose weight. For goals, I’m still trying to work things out in…
