Hello there I too am an exact 5ft 1in. small but getting more perfectly formed by the week : )

Thanks for the advice my MFPers I will try some of the suggestions and see how I go.

I have 3 meals a day but am a typical 'grazer' picking throughout the day. I eat bread or potatoes at each meal but after this post I think i will try to bulk up on veggies and replace bread with ryvita and the like and see if that works.

Just take calcium supplement as i am a woman of a certain age and I don't eat dairy (although do have the occasion serving of cream). I think supplements are worth taking if you know your diet or health means you are deficient in certain vitamins or minerals. Problem is remembering to take them.

absolute madness !!!

Welcome to MFP. It is a great tool (I've lost 11lbs since joining just over a month ago) and it is fantastic to have supportive friends. Feel free to add me.

i eat mine and am losing weight at a steady pace so must work. it also stops me feeling hungry and i don't feel deprived if i eat something that is a bit more calorific than normal.

i too am my second week in and at present feel very motivated as i have lost 2lb each week but I too need to keep motivated. Add me as a motivational friend if you want.

i am happy to be an encouraging friend
