Thanks for explaining this, I was wondering if my 2lb goal was too drastic, but by this it's not. When I reach the lower weight to lose, should I change? or wait for plateau? Or how does that even work?? [/quote] every 10lb you lose MFP will advise you to recalculate your goals and will give you the recommended rate of…

i am not entirely certain, but my understanding is a deficit of 500 calories a day equals to 1lb weightloss, although i maybe mistaken if i am somebody please correct me :), i think it also depends on your actual weight to start with. In my experience however when i was doing the 30 day shred i lst barley any weight at all…

thanks everyone, i have tried to eat but i even struggled with soup yesterday but its gradually getting better, don't get me wrong the 5lb weightloss is great i just didn't want to get disheartened if it all came back on again, 5lb weightloss is amazing but equally a 5lb weight gain is devastating hahaha x

i know what you mean its hard to get your head around, but you need food in order to lose weight, i don't know all the scientifics of it, i do know however it worked for me, when i started MFP i lost 9lb very fast within the first couple of weeks, but that was i suppose water weight because after that even though i was…

i think this is a very good post, because i think until you confront the little lies you tell yourself you will never be successful at weightloss, i had a vast array of lies i used to tell myself and others, LIE 1- I am not that big i am only a UK size 14 ha (TRUTH: I have been trying to get into the same elasticated size…

i have just recently finished my TOM and although i didn't put any weight on, i didn't lose anything regardless of what i ate ot how much i worked out, I agree stay off the scales for a week (because it can be quite disheartening) and just continue to do what your doing. I know my mum can put on anything between 2-4lb on…

I started it after many people on here posted their good results, Day 1 was horrific i was completely out of breath and couldn't get through it without stopping, and i though they was no way that in just ten days i would be able to move on to level 2, but i stuck with it and carried after all everybody can't be wrong. I…

Obviously my main goal is to not have the health implication that i know comes with being obese. My whole family has this problem, although i am not as big as them i know that i was on the path to being so. But my superficial goal, is to buy clothes that i actually like, not to choose them because they hide my stomach, or…

I think an indulgence meal sounds much better :laugh:

I totally agree, it sometimes is quite hurtful when its people you know. I have friends who have perfectly beautiful bodies and in no way to lose weight, but hear then complaing about having to lose 10lb or so with no regard as to how i may feel, someone who is obviously probably nearly 50lb heavier than they are, but i…
