  • Feel free to add me ladies, I am a compulsive logger in'er and love this site. I get active in the challenges and log daily my food and water and exercise (with the exception of the last 2 days lol Xmas day and Boxing day.....but I am back logging today). I agree with removing the non-participating friends too. We are all…

  • Hey love, I was in the same boat as you. In 2008 I lost a good 30lbs, then spiked to my highest weigh every this year. I knew I could get it off but just didn't want to, so it was all in my head. My recommendation to you is to walk. Around the block at first. Walk for 10 minutes, 3 times a day. Don't walk overly fast at…

    in Lose 10 pounds challenge in Jan Comment by Roblyssa December 2011
  • Girl, I am in exactly the same boat, so I am feeling your pain. I am not dropping in clothing size either after 8 weeks of trying to lose weight. I am going to the dr tomorrow to chat to him about it as I do have a thyroid problem (not under or over active, a multinodular goitre that can convert to either under or over…
    in Help please - Only Lost 1lb since starting this 40 days ago! Comment by Roblyssa December 2011
  • This post is actually brilliant! I have been trying to lose weight for 7 weeks and have only lost less than 8lbs!! I joined MFP 10 days ago in exasperation, and lost about 2.6lbs in my first week of MFP (taking the total to 7.5lbs). I am one who has been eating between 1200-1300 calories per day and no more, and exercising…
    in for those people who MFP have their net calories @ 1200... Comment by Roblyssa December 2011
  • Hey there, I also have 50lbs to lose :grumble: but my only form of exercise right now is walking. I enjoy walking because it gets me out of the house and away from the kids for a good 30-40 minutes and allows me to do my best thinking. I am going to do the 30 Day Shred from January 1st and see how that goes, but right now…
    in Fat WF looking for motivating accountability buddies! Comment by Roblyssa December 2011
  • Hey there, I am also in Australia and I was looking on WWW.JBHIFI.COM.AU - http://www.jbhifionline.com.au/dvd/dvd-genres/sport-fitness/jillian-michaels-30-day-shred/472773 They had it for $14.99 with free postage, and I am seriously considering starting Jan 1st, new year, new me.

  • I am also a Brisbane Mum, are you south or north? Perhaps I can offer more than just online support... I adopt the policy 'there is never gain without some sort of pain', and I repeat this mantra when I am on the treadmill or walking up that hill. The food is all in the mind. Like the others said, if there is a deeper…

  • There is a post about this in introductions (I think)....a bunch of people are starting this tomorrow I think. I would love to do it too but I don't have the dvd yet and I want to wait until after Christmas to start it (Jan 1st). Good luck with it!
    in 30ds for a fitness noob Comment by Roblyssa December 2011
  • I had never heard of this, and to be honest, it scares the crap out of me! I am terrible at pushing myself. Someone else pushing me is different, but I am more likely to give up. I am still going to look into it though. I may do it starting January 1st, after christmas and new year. Good luck to those doing it!

  • I agree, you really are gorgeous and you have done so so soooo well! Keep it up, you are doing so well and are an inspiration to most of us on here (if not all of us). Congrats on your loss!! And here's to many more!

  • Hey Ladies I am Kellie. I have just started using MFP and only just discovered these boards today but I am very motivated right now and I can easily skip treats now without feeling like I am missing out on something. I would love MFP friends as I usually only ever get on with my iPhone and I can read their little…
