Saturday im hockeying, and sunday i have a rugby match!! if we win we are through to the final!!!

im about half way, so another 30ish lb to go!

i found that it took about 14lb before i noticed a difference. perhaps the break in your weight loss may be part of the reason? not sure really, someone on here may be able to help, but just keep going, it will come off!!

Firstly, the positive thing is your results at the GP- its better to be fat and fit/healthy than slim and unfit/unhealthy- something I personally feel strongly about!!! Secondly, as people have said, it does take time, how long have you been on your journey? have you switched up your exercise routine?

this!

yeh, im sporty anyway so fit (despite my size), psychologically im not a road runner (my head says boring and so i don't do it) but give me a hockey/football/rugby pitch i'll run and run and run, so will be doing lots of running and strength training!!

No, must try on there :) actually really looking forward to it- though i may conk out after lol!!

Im heading to the North West England one on the Saturday. everyone thinks im a nutter and can't find anyone willing to take part in it with me lol!!

aim high is what i always say, i find if i aim higher i tend to do better than if i aimed lower. just dont be disappointed if you dont hit that target- remember whatever weight you lose is weight off that you wouldn't have had off before!!

im from northern ireland :) feel free to add :)

water retention!!!!!!!!

if i order chinese i go all out.. i end up with fried pekinese chicken and fried rice. heck i need to live a little lol!!

You quite possibly are losing in other areas!!! :) as suggested above, start taking measurements!

well, i have bought several pairs of jeans and dresses in the sales that are the next size down to motivate me lol! the only problem is now im kind of in a size where I have very few clothes that fit lol! im taking that as a motivator itself!

shock absorber- i swear by them.i play a lot of sports, and they are amazing.

i did it 2 years ago... i lost almost 2 stone... got sick and put it all back on.... for me, mfp is free and is here to support me all the time... i find it much easier than slimming world to stay on track!!

hi *waves* im from northern ireland! welcome back!

ive kept one pair and either binned the rest or given them to charity.

im planning on doing tough mudder, they have their own training regime on their website for free.

i think they were just trying to be helpful tbh. when i was pregnant with my daughter, i ate for about 5 people lol!! congrats :)

fantastic :)

i've done alright. ive had a kfc but it fitted into my macros, so i've been quite happy. just waiting patiently on the scale to start moving....

yep, i'd take them even if im not exercising!!

i agree, 3000 is probably a good place to start and see how you go, and i would eat back exercise calories (personally).

welcome aboard :)

I agree, if your struggling, work out your BMR and see what your body needs.

im the same. its all psychological. set me in a sports situation and ill run and run and run, but put me in a gym or walking or running- most boring thing and i can't do it. if you don't enjoy it- don't do it, find something you enjoy that you will keep at :)

i've added you. can never have too many friends :)

I was naturally super slim until i hit about 13 and then my metabolism started kicking in..... i gain weight, but lost it when i was 16/17 and then got pregnant and put it all on again and far more lol!

maybe some nuts or other high protein foods, or on carrots for low cals
