Me! Add me if you want support?

Im from London.. will send you a request.. :o)

Welcome Amber, this is a great site.. lot's of tips etc., It's kept me motivated for the past 6 months so it must be good.. My ideal weight is 120 lbs but I too will never reach that weight.. but as long as you are happy that's all that matters. You are obviously quite fit because you are on your feet a lot.. You will no…

Amazing, that guy was certainly determined, what a great inspiration he is!

I would love to lose 62lb by late August 2011, Im getting married in September so really want to be a slim bride, I think it's possible, as long as I remain focused and don't get sidetracked!

I'm in!

I have loads to lose too... think I am also morbidly obese.. I am really going to try hard this time to get rid of my excess weight.. will add you as a friend if that's okay? Tracy

I agree.. it will almost certainly happen... no-one can sustain a diet of 800 - 100 calories without it having some sort of negative effect of your metabolism.. I've done it.. and thought I was doing great.. then I plateaued for nearly 3 months.. and started to gain weight as well... There are special diets that allow a…

It's a fact that you will lose weight if you drop to 900 or less for a week or so and then your body will react and your metabolism will slow down..
