Congratulations, that is an amazing difference!:happy:

You look so much younger, congratulations !

Most of us have been where you are. The only thing I would add to all the fantastic advice above is don't go off mfp. It's not just about logging your food, it is hearing your friends progress, it just motivates you. It is too easy to slowly slide away if you aren't monitoring it. The only way you definitely won't succeed…

This is pretty much what I do, and the beauty I find, is I don't crave bad foods, I am hoping that lasts. There is no way at work or at home I would not be under high pressure to eat too much treat foods.

I have no problem with not wanting to do low carb or not agreeing even that it is a worthwhile option but it is the tone of the posts that get me. It isn't necessary. People are not automatically stupid if they don't agree with someone, no matter what "proof" they think they have. One size does NOT fit all.

yep but I think you are better off without her, someone more straight up!

I am going to add all of you, lol, am not hard core Paleo etc but do low carbs, am not judgmental and would be very interested in your diaries.

hmmm me too

I agree, there is way to much judging and hating on this site. Try enjoying the differences in people, what you think is not always going to be right for every person out there.

Good for you Meredith!

Nope, not interested, love my man and it wouldn't change if he put on weight or lost weight.

Emma, I think I am going to have to log forever, I just bought a scale and found I was eating twice as much cereal as I was logging :noway: It is the portion size that is so hard to estimate.

You have very thick gorgeous looking hair

you look like a happy person

you look like a princess

I think you win

Yea it depends on the craving, if it is very bad then no matter what I will end up eating it, so better to eat a small amount, than have a big healthy meal and still eat the treat!

yes no matter what, no many how many days you don't log in, come back......even if you log food for some of the time, it helps build it as a habit.

You look beautiful, congratulations

Hi there and welcome. I loved reading your post and didn't find it rambling at all! My daughter and mother both had bad asthma, and I sometimes can get it when I exercise. You do seem to have set yourself a massive exercise goal to start with. Good on you for getting the treadmill and coming back here after it not working…

Yes agree totally, love your picture! Why do any of have us have to be taken "seriously" on a weight loss page anyway?

Hi everybody, I live 80km south of Dunedin. Am trying to lose 15kgs overall, and have lost 5kgs so far. Then I want to keep it off, which has been a problem in the past. I continually lose weight, then put it back on, plus another 5kgs, this time I got to 5kgs over when I was fully pregnant. Feel free to friend me…

Yes I agree, this is about you, and none of their business. For some reason it can feel like we must answer people in a work situation on something personal. I'd just say I'm just trying to improve my habits and leave it at that but you don't have to say anything at all.

I am going to spoil myself at each 5kg drop, the first I want to get a really good Lancome or Elizabeth Arden face cream.
