21 days to set a habit? I always find an excuse to get out of a habit quickly (going away for the weekend, overtime, birthdays etc.) any excuse really. I'm going away this Wednesday for a 2 night break (excuses already!) but when I get back Friday, I have nothing else that can 'interrupt' routines. So, Dark Wizzard, as of…

Hi everyone! I'm Sonia, 39 years old with over 100lbs to lose. I have currently lost 23lbs since I joined MFP in January but have hit a bit of a plateau, mainly because I'm not putting in as much effort as I intially was. I have managed to drop a couple of dress sizes though. I'm trying to achieve steady weight loss…

I accept friends of either gender, though i do prefer my friends to have a lot of weight to lose as I do (100lbs+) or have lost a loof weight as I believe they'll understand my trials and tribulations more than someone who maybe only has a few pounds to lose. In fact, some of my most supportive MFPs are men...

Finally after been stuck in a rut, I've lost 2lbs this week :) Now 231lbs, don't think I'm going to reach my initial target of 223lbs by summer though...

No weight loss this week to report but I did buy some new tops on Saturday that are a size smaller than usual and they fit!!!!! Not sure if it's one of those shops that are more generous when it comes to sizing but I don't care - a NSV for me. My friend said it's not over generous but she buys clothes there so she would…

Hi all! Managed to lose that annoying 1lb I'd gained last week and went swimming this morning too :)

I'm beginning to slack a bit. My mood the past couple of weeks has really been dragging me and my motivation down :( Not eating well at the weekends STILL!!!! Feel like I've been slipping into my old pre-MFP ways. Exercise has been a sporadic occurence recently too :( The weather hasn't been great for walking. We dog-sat…

When you log your exercise tomorrow, you'll find your goals for each food type as well as daily cals goal will adjust too. I'm always slightly over on protein every day too

Hi all! Not been feeling too well this week with TOM and a stonking cold. Not really had the energy or motivation to exercise and haven't even managed many lunchtime walks either. Food wise, apart from the weekend, I've been doing ok. Weigh in day tomorrow so we'll see what the damage is. On a poisitve note, someone I've…

Hi! Another Lancashire lass here, welcome on board x

Hello all! I'm a complete novice when it comes to cycling but a mate of ours had 2 bikes going spare. At 38 I'm finally biting the bullet and trying to learn how to ride a bike. Only had two sessions so far and managed to fall off both times. My legs are bruised black and blue and I'm not very confident at braking, turning…

Hmmm... ok, I'm managing to exercise 5 times a week including Wii dance, walking, swimming and now cycling. Doing a lot of this during lunchtimes or before work so I've kind of slipped back into spending evenings on facebook though I have done a lot of crafting and card making in the evenings too. Still need to get the…

Hi all! Since I last posted, I've managed to lose 4 more pounds making a total of 20lbs (did gain a few in between but think I'm seeing a pattern to the weight gain) I've also started going swimming twice a week before work and this past weekend hubby has been teaching me how to ride a bike. I'm black and blue from falling…

Lost 4lbs this weeks :)

hi everyone! Name : Sonia Location : Lancashire Reason Why You Want To Get Fit! : don't want to be fat and forty Your One Piece Of Great Advice for our fitness & health! : I'm reducing portion sizes and being more active

I usually eat some of them. Even with my exercise calories I'm eating a lot less calories than I used to and now I'm more active too. I find the exercise calories help me eat little treats without feeling guilty

Amazing success stories. Hopefully in a few months I can post a before and after pic!

Red meat can kill...as can being run over by a bus :grumble:

SW: 241lbs 12wk goal: 223lbs (under 16 stones) so want to lose 18lbs Reason: to feel a little less frumpy in summer tops and floaty dresses

So far I've been doing Wii Fit and Just dance and going for walks at lunchtime. Hoping to start going swimming twice a week before work now that the mornings are getting lighter and I can get out of bed more esily. Also hoping to get back into playing badminton once a week soon. When the weather gets nicer, I can go on…

I'll join you. SW: 241lbs 12wk goal: 223lbs (under 16 stones) so want to lose 18lbs Reason: to feel a little less frumpy in summer tops and floaty dresses

With my figure, I wouldn't wear it as I've got chubby legs and no boobs but you look fab in it, great legs too. No reason why you should wear it and show off your fabulous new body, be proud of your hard work! x

Black, knee-high boots (first pair I've found to fit me.) I have 4 cats How many tattoos do you have? D'oh too late! Best feature - my eyes

I've been trying for ages to find a watch to fit my chubby wrist and one that I tried on ages ago and didn't fit, now fits :) Don't like the watch anymore though

Hi! What's bothering you? xx

I weigh myself Monday and Friday though the official weigh-in day is Friday. I usually find my weight has increased by Monday (darn weekends!) so it motivates me to get back into routine before Friday.

Started Jan 2nd, sister-in-law's 30th on new years day so there was no point starting then! Have currently lost 17lbs and 3 pairs of trousers that no longer fit :)

Is that really you in the profile pic? if so, why/where do you wanna lose weight? I would kill for slim legs like yours, I'd kill for boobs like that, in fact I'd kill for your figure!

( weeks in and glad I haven't given up yet. Been doing ok, but just trundling along, you know? But I feel like I'm beginning to slowly slip into old habits. So, in an evening instead of doing something like Wii Dance I've started slouching on Facebook playing silly games. At the weekend, I'm not eating much fruit and this…
