Loztandfound, it's monday, and I'm 196 lbs. let's do this!!

You guyyyyyyys!!!! so much love for you all, reading these little bits - you're winners :) I'm 33, high weight of 215, down to 182, and still determined.... it comes and goes in fits and spurts though, so anyone fancying a geeky buddy intimidated by a full gym but gritting their teeth and doing it any way, then feel free…

You've already made the first move by recognising it! keep up the good work, and I'm sure us guys commenting would be up for a new buddy here :) KEEP THAT ISH UP, YOU WINNER!!

Hey guys! Well done to all of you, first off :) I started at 215, and I'm 5 foot 3, I'm currently down to 182lbs, but aiming for more! amazing work, and keep being fab and motivating :)

This is amazing!! I've been telling people about this where I live for about 3 years and nobody has heard of it.... I'm so pleased I've found my fellowship!! I've not got the app, but a spreadsheet version on my laptop, so I mapmyrun it, then maths when I get home. If any of you lovely geeks fancies a LotR buddy/walking to…

The only thing that's narrowing down your dating options is you... lifting doesn't 'take anyone off the table', you either like someone or you don't. Try going for not your normal, you might surprise yourself. My preferred partners have something that my current partner doesn't, and we're 10 years in to this…

I love these fur babies!!! I'm allergic to cats but these are amazing pics :)

just south, Lincoln here!

Lincoln all the way!!

ooh, ooh, I'm doing this!! Yeah, I did it off and on last year, but this is the year I AT LEAST reach Lothlorien!!

Well done everyone!!! all these amusing NSVs are just showing us (and the world, oops!) that we're losing so much that our pants don't fit any more....

Miso soup is awesome, salty and niiiiiiiiice, and the one I've found, in Sainsburys oriental aisle, is 18 calories per sachet..... om nom nom. Snacking does NOT have to be bad at all. I like simple stuff like carrot sticks and low fat houmus (can get little snack pots for about 37 cals each), and also, sounds random, but…

a girl with sweeping fake eyelashes and a tan, and probably a handbag dog!

Hey Chaps, sounds like a good check in recently, sorry I've been absent for a bit - mayhem happening at the moment. Really pleased to see other people on here, and a good support/friend network starting up again :) How is everyone doing at this time of year? Most of the Xmas worry/summer hold panic is not going on, it's a…

unfortunately some good tasting food is very high in cals!! i'd say to dip your calories for a few days, whether thats by exercising more or eating less (or a combo of both). I tend to go by a weekly overview, so if i overeat on one day, I'll make up for it by the end of the week. Not a biggy!! x

LOL like it :)

Hells yes, I have lost 4 stone with cheat days included!! so thats..... 56 lbs? i have one day a week where i eat what i want, but possibly a bit over. I exercise two or three times a week but tend to eat around 1200 usually 6 days a week. depends what you eat as well, though - some foods can be held on to easier than…

Lost weight REALLY slowly this time as I used to have Eating Disorders Not Otherwise Specified (EDNOS) - basically ridiculously overexercising and undereating, but not at an anorexic weight level. I then burnt all bridges to that and put on an unreal amount of weight, around 120 lbs, and have now taken 50lbs off again.…

I'm on here for the long run, been on for a while and happy to mentor! more of a buddy than a leader, but I am positive, full of suggestions and advice that I have experienced, but happy to discuss or be a sounding board for frustrations or rants. about me: 29, random hair colours which change monthly, love geeky stuff and…

thanks, Marceline :) will feedback to her! hope you are feeling ok today - or better, obv! xxx

Awwww, VQ, that sucks :( so sorry to hear that. Just be as honest as you can, they will see what you live with and go from there. Christmas is done, the rains are here, which is always the first sign of spring!! have you tried one of those sun lamp things, at all? my chum was talking about getting one, her SAD is baaaaaad.…

Hi honey, TBH this is the most active post in months.... :/ I think the best thing to do is search using the terms you used or conditions you have in the community pages, or start some more posts - i think there may be some lurkers here who havent posted!! I totally feel your pain with the vicious circle - I went from…

once a week I'll have a non-logging day. So not a cheat day as such, I will still eat well balanced and try and drink all the liquids, but I won't log, so I'm less strict on the cals. I might be a bit over on that day, but i will enjoy it. I don't binge on that day, but one kebab a week won't kill the weightloss as long as…

hehe, exactly! Nekobus wins! I have a set of three totoros - the big grey gy, the mini blue one and the gorgeous tiny white one, from a shop called Crafty Dork on FB/Etsy i think... She's a lovely lady :) 30 is just 30, days are just days... you make a day as special or enjoyable as you want, I reckon. :)

glad you guys seem to be doing ok/ doing better :) birthdays are the same as every other day, I reckon, and its a nice neutral way to look at it! I'm going to be 30 this year, so 5 years bonus time (bonus time as in I thought I was going to be dead by 25). And yes, that is a Totoro Kigurumi, I Cosplay and this was worn to…

not much of a spreadsheet person?? Google docs FTW!! do it! :) ENJOY, most of all...

Wow, so much enthusiasm!! I must admit, I'm quite pleased with you guys :) I let you know and wasn't expecting so much.... interest :) There isn't a start date, end date or timescale in which to do it - the Hobbits did about 20 miles a day (but they didn't have kids, school, work, bills, etc....). I am only doing about 5-7…

I may be a LotR geek, but I have never.... been so disappointed than when I watched the first Hobbit film! I have been told the second (desolation of Smaug) is better, but I am reluctant to watch it now the first one was so shocking.... IMO, obv!

woohoo, UK and reptiles!! I have a load of corns and leopard geckos, and always up for more chums. xx

hug/dance - that smile!! those eyes!
