My job can vary day to day, either sat behind a desk all day or walking up and down a 50 metre swimming pool for the day, so I have my activity set a sedintary and only log actual exercise done eg going for a walk at night, going the gym or using my exercise bike. :)

I would wait and see what you get this week. In the past I have lost 3lb one week and then 1lb the next but then on the 3rd Ive gone back to 3lb again, so my weight lose averaged over 2 weeks would be 2lb per week which is good. I wouldn't stress or worry about it at the moment you have lost so just keep doing what your…

Hi Tracey, I also have an open diary please feel free to add me the more support the better Niki

I have only really been using this app seriously for 2 weeks and I have lost 7lb in that time. I stick to my cals 1200 a day and I try and burn at least 250 cals a day but I don't eat them back. Over the last week have been off work and done loads of exercise but now back to reality of about 250 a day. Keep up the good…

I am not a big carb eater but when I cut them totally out I get really bad headaches and am no good, try and just maintain them at a low level and see how you go.

I am not a big carb person but I find the same with chocolate. I a really bad with chocolate and I have to stay away from it as once I start there is no end it is like someone has opened the flood gates.

Are you eating your full calorie allowance? Sometimes not eating all of your cals can hold you back :)

Hi Melina, My names Niki, I have been a member for ages and it worked really well at first then I just stopped using it. This time I am 100% on it, I wont to be able to fasten my laces without my belly getting in the way, I want to feel comfortable sitting behind my desk at work without my pants digging in. I have never…

I'm with you I need to get this weight off and want to look fab for my christmas night out :)

Anyone wanting to add me please feel free I try and do some exercise each day and would also like some recipes ideas so please feel free to add me Niki x

Welcome to MFP, I have been there like you lost 42lb and then put it all back on, so I have decided that I am going to do this with the help of MFP and I am going to do it right good luck

Don't be silly things can be confusing, I would keep your food at 1800 not your net thats the way I do it

I am not sure on the net front, as I don't look at that I simply eat my calories that I am allowed and then my exercise is a bonus, I would say you need to be eating your 1800 cals a day otherwise your body is going to have enough fuel and therefore could impact your weight loss, don't know if I have confused you more, soz…

Well done you look fantastic

Welcome to the party. You can do it, if you put your mind to it you can do anything Good Luck
