Thanks so much to everyone, this gives me hope. I appreciate the candor. I absolutely do need to be inspirational and a good role model for my daughter/S. Admittedly I took her diagnosis very hard and it does creep back up on me. I have spoken to a doctor about anxiety and depression but other than a couple years on a…

Truly amazing, a huge well done to you. And thank you so much for sharing you tips and story, it's a big inspiration to all us still at the beginning of the journey. I have 130 to lose and I have so struggled. My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at aged 3 and it has been so stressful, I think I gained 70lb just…

Just wow.

When you go over, take it as an opportunity to learn how to deal with the emotions that come with it. I say this as a serial starter who, up until this time round, was ALWAYS derailed by any 'bad' days - I'd just lose the motivation because I felt I'd failed already. Now that I've accepted I'm in this for the long run and…

Truly amazing. Massive congrats to you both!

Wow.... you look incredible. What an amazing accomplishment. Thank you so much for sharing your story - your meals look amazing, too!

6800 + 33 = 6833

I'm 30 and I'm hoping for the same. Have about 60 lbs left to lose. My tummy was never the same since my first child but my second was 11lbs 3 Oz and I was absolutely massive. We will see :)

You look great!!! Nice work

Chocolate. I struggle to moderate it, because I find it so moreish. I now only buy 90% dark chocolate and have a handful of nuts with a square of that, and it does take the craving away. I could easily incorporate some of my favourite chocolate into my calories allowance, but I always want more!

I have 62 left to lose. You can add me :smile: we haven't set a date for our wedding yet but I'd love to get healthy for it

I'm 6 months pp. I was overweight from before pregnancy but I'm 14lbs down. I still have about 60 to go to get healthy. I also need surgery for a hernia I got during pregnancy and I've been told I have to lose at least 20 lbs more. Feel free to add me

Hummus and veg sticks (I find carrots great if I'm hungry), mixed nuts with small amount of dark choc if I have the calories to spare, plain popcorn or fruit. I drink alot of water in between meals too, helps a bit with the cravings.

As already said, GP would be good for the advice you need. My own personal experience however, is that I was overweight with my previous pregnancy. I actually was in the process of logging and losing weight when I became pregnant. I was advised to up my calories but eat plenty of fruits veggies healthy fats etc. I decided…

Awesome. Keep up the great work :)

just, wow. you look incredible. thank you for sharing your amazing story, you are an amazingly inspirational woman

You look fantastic! Great job x

I do the same, and for me its entirely a habitual thing. I'm certainly not hungry and even if I am, the amount of food I eat does not reflect how hungry I was. Plus, it's always junk food. I have associated night time with junk food. I can be as good as anything all day and when the evening comes, I find myself struggling…

Goodness me, what a transformation, you look truly amazing!!

hi there. I am pregnant at the moment with my second daughter and I am 29, I am in month 6 and weigh 250lbs :-( I had lost over 2 stone before this pregnancy after starting mfp, but I had such bad food aversions and cravings that I seemed to have piled it all back on and then some. Needless to say I am disheartened!!…

All you can do is move forward. You messed up, but you can't change that. Everything you do from this moment onwards is entirely up to you, just learn from you're mistakes. It doesn't help that you feel down. I find it almost impssible to feel motivated when I feel down. Take a time out to feel good, but don't do it with…

Just wow - look at you! The difference in your face alone is amazing. Great work you gorgeous woman!!

I 'fail' all the time - although I have a lot of weight to lose and heaven knows I REALLY want to lose it, I'm such an emotional timebomb that one bad day has me sinking into junk food, couch potatoism and a wine bottle. BUT I don't think I'm a failure, I'm just a winner that had a bad day. Or three :) In all seriousness,…

chocolate is my downfall. I am also suffering my first PMT after having my baby, and i'm breastfeeding, and I have always, throughout my life eaten far too much chocolate. I love Easter, because of all the eggs! But even thought ive slipped up a few times this week (2-3 days of 500+ over goal calories) I know I'm still…
