I'm really keen to have new friends to keep me motivated - This time is the time I'm going to stick it out! Hope to meet you soon

I'm repeat MFP user, I get very discouraged and I think with support (which will be reciprocated) will be more effective. Happy for the add. Have a great day!!

You can and you will - supporting you all the way!! Thanks for the vulnerability - I too suffered a horrendous injury that left me paralyzed for a while, surgery fixed the paralysis but the weight gain has stayed. I too need support and motivation to budge the extra bulge.

Thanks for helping - got it now and feel a bit sheepish that i couldn't work that out :blushing:

I feel the same too. I'm worried that the older i get the slower my skin will bounce back. is it age related too?

I can so relate to this. Over the past 2 years I have spiralled into a financial physical and emotional pit of despair. I need to loose 25 KG or about 50 lbs as well. I have gone the hard cold turkey with smoking and unhealthy eating (well at first anyway) What I did was just count calories and keep within my limit or just…

H, Tassie all the way and would love some aussie friend to keep me on track!!!!

Tassie all the way!!!

WOW - thanks everyone for your responses - it has given me a great idea about recipes but think that i need to hold it every day for a week to fit it all in!!!! Pray that you all had a amazing time with family and reflecting on how great live really is :-) Thanks again:flowerforyou: :heart: :smile:

When dh said that he was scared that i would develop the family trait of type 2 diabetes, chronic renal failure and early death ... Seeing the look in his eyes I said to myself that 'i have to do it ...' We plan to grow old together, be grey nomads and enjoy the great great grandchildren. This is a bucket list tick that…

bump!! - I love soups!!

WOW - I always thought that I was big framed!!! Nope!!! I am actually small framed ... I can look how I want then!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this!!:flowerforyou: :bigsmile:

I know that if I keep a track of what i eat I am less likely to put something in my mouth and to team that idea with emotion/lifestyle tracking too will help identify and potentially elliminate gaining it all back. Lets see how it goes!! I'm In :-)
