Hi Katherine. Well I managed to lose 120lbs (gained some of it back so trying to relose it) I am not going to insult your intelligence and say it is easy but it is not as difficult as you think it is. Part of you will think you are condemned to be overweight the rest of your life, this is how I felt but it is not true.…

I was a 22 at around 270 (I'm 5'11)

I found I had better results if I did not eat back all my exercise calories. I was where you are 3 years ago and lost 120lbs (gained half back unfortunately due to greed and laziness lol) I question how accurate the exercise calories really are too, maybe eat 25% back or less if you are having a 'hungry' day but 1770 was…

I think it takes a lot of weight loss to actually go down a dress size for me because at 5'11 There is a lot more of me lengthwise and my weight is spread pretty evenly over me. I do look drastically different according to my friends as my face has slimmed and I am down 77lbs (I was originally 102lbs lost but gained some…

Sounds like a great idea - I am sure it would be a great help for diabetics so have this feature added.

I'd tell my 20 year old self to leave my job and stop trying to please everybody. My 25 year old self not waste the best years of my life loving a man who could not commit to me. My 30 year old self to hurry up and have kids before it's too late.

I walked a marathon in 2012 - the Moonwalk in London. I was 340lbs at the time and it was a struggle but I trained for 6 months and I completed it. I went from 25 minute miles and finally managed to get to 15-16 minute miles) There are special training programmes for walking marathons and you start of at around the level…

He was a huge part of my life growing up and I have always been a big fan, I love his seventies stuff best of all - so sad we have lot yet another unique, creative and original human :(

Not creepy but I do ask people to tell me a little about themselves as I don't want to be 'collected' I will accept without a message if we have friends in common - I am more selective now - I spend time actively supporting and have no time for people who never both to interact, what's the point?

No not that I've noticed lol

Yep

I lost 120lbs (gained 12;ns over the last month due to holidays) and the only real exercise I do regularly is walking.. it is a good, natural exercise that can be incorporated easily into your day and is great for mind and body - I aim for 10000 steps a day and sometimes do substantially more. So yes, it is totally…

It is really hard to do this, to break out of this cycle but it CAN be done. I was where you are over a year ago, the only exercise I have ever done is walking so never needed a sports bra (you could try wearing two ordinary bras, one over the other btw for more support). It is correct to say it is calorie deficit so you…
