Congrats on your loss! That's fantastic :)

I've been doing this two weeks and have lost 11lb. I haven't been starving myself at all, so I think it is just the lifestyle change which makes it come off fast first. I expect it will slow down heaps for the next two weeks.

Yes, there is definitely a big change already :) Keep doing whatever you're doing and you'll be fantastic! I'm looking forward to seeing your future posts :) Thanks for the motivation.

Since two weeks ago I've lost 3.2kg (7.05lb). Not sure if that's good or bad but I'm ok with it as long as I keep losing.

Wow you're looking so pretty now :) I'm looking forward to my results in a few months even more now :)

I'm not British, but we use grams in New Zealand too, like most of the world. I would use a kitchen scale for the flour if the recipe asked for flour in grams, but most recipes would state the flour quantity in cups of course.

Yay I'm up to an average housecat! lol

I remember being told by a weight loss adviser that when I eat bananas only to eat them when they are still fresh and yellow. Once they have gone brown and soft all the insides have been converted to sugars so they are less healthy.

omg!

Yes, I'd love to join! Pick me! :)

Me! I want to do this challenge :)

It doesn't sound like a very pleasant place to work at all. Just make sure you keep losing weight - that will show them and then they'll be furious that they think you can pig out and still lose.

I don't have that problem.. I nearly always end on meat or a potato if there is one though.

Hey! Add me too please. I'm trying to lose a similar amount of body fat and I log in every day as well.

I had big problems with my scales being inaccurate like you had described. I could get on them 5 times in a row and it would lock into different readings all five times by up to 20kg. I was at first upset - had paid big money for my scales which also told fat and muscle percentages, then I had an idea to bring in a spare…

Ok.. go to Apps and press on tickers. Then press on the update ticker button and it will allow you to re-enter your starting weight. So you can at least have a ticker a the bottom of your posts that show your current relevant weight loss effort.

I know what you mean.. because after joining I went away and put on some weight.. came back and it took weeks to get back down to my joining weight and so it kept saying I was losing 0 on the meter. I didn't really look for a solution, but I'll have a look now...

I could do the banana shake one - that one looks yummy... but would get a bit boring after a time.

One of the men at my last job started the Lemon Detox diet - he brought 2 weeks worth for about $200. Then he came to work for three days in a row with just a bottle of water which had some lemon syrup in it. I tried so hard not to laugh (I acted supportive instead) Then it fell apart within 3 days because he couldn't…

I lost the average amount of human skin

I get them when I run, but I know from previous experience that when I am lighter I don't get them. I would suggest you do something lower impact until you are light enough for your shins to take your weight without giving you shin splints. I do heaps and heaps of walking - several hours at a time and it really works very…

Name/Username: Dawnvs1 Current Weight: 95.25kg (209.9903lb) Total pounds you want to lose: 30kg (66.1387lb) Goal weight for March 31: 90kg (198.416lb) Goal Weight for April 30: 89kg (196.211lb) Goal Weight for May 31: 85kg (187.393lb) Something positive about yourself: I am really healthy but just a bit overweight.

Maybe get a pair of scales that shows fat and muscle composition and then you'll know whether it's turned into muscle or if you're doing something wrong diet wise. Look at other peoples food diaries too who have been successful and see what they have been eating to get results.

Just eat normal and exercise like normal. If you start starving yourself to make up for it for a few hours you'll only stress your body. Just forget it happened, and go back to your normal healthy plan.

Today I ate 1 cup of cooked rice - plain longrain white. How many calories should that be? I hope I haven't pressed the wrong rice..

Thanks, yes I'm using the same type

Ok.. just used that website and it clearly means uncooked rice on MFP. Well I probably won't be weighing out 100g of uncooked rice - that would make SO much! lol. I'll have to find another way to enter it.

Ok, thanks. I'll weigh it when I cook it. I wish it would say though!

I saw fitbit advertised in a local store today - I was kind of excited - because I've been thinking of getting it but I'd have to send away. Which fitbit device do you have? I might hold off until they stock the newest fitbit they're about to release in march.

Coke Zero. With the Diet coke I can taste the artificial sweetener and it is foul.
