  • Hi, I've been on here a while & lost around 23lbs but recently gained some back (quit smoking, xmas binge etc etc) so am looking to kick start myself again & lose it for summer. Feel free to add me anyone! :smile:
  • Thanks for all the advice, I am trying to keep reeeeeally busy so I don't have time to think about smoking, my house has never been so clean! I feel more positive this time than previous times I have tried to quit & have come to the conclusion that it's just sheer will power and determination that are the best strategies -…
  • I used to eat McDonalds once a week, I have been on MFP 5 months now & have had 2 small childrens meals since I started & have to admit they tasted like cardboard! I knew McDonalds was bad obviously but had no idea just how bad. That web site is real eye opener. Here is my weekly meal: Big Mac Meduim fries Medium coke…
  • I am totally with you on this. I am 5ft 2" & was around 130-132lb which a lot of my friends said was "skinny". I have never really been overly large but was the heaviest I'd ever been & when you are small it seems to show more? My clothes were getting tight n I had a definate "belly". Top & bottom it was I just didn't…
  • I am!!!!:smile:
  • Wow, what an inspiration! Congratulations on all your hard work, you look fantastic!
  • At reaching 116lbs I went to maintenance last week & MFP increased my cals from 1200 to 1410. I stuck to this all week & I do very little exercise really.

  • I make different meals most nights, one for my husband then something for the kids & then my own. Sometimes we all eat the same but it's very rare.

  • Hi, I am in the normal weight range for my height etc. but am only 5ft 2" & wanted to lose around 14-18lb and generally tone up, as every little gained really shows. I lost 10lb in first few weeks as I really changed my eating habits & started a bit of excercise (which I never did before). I have slowed down now but am…
  • Friend request sent!
  • Hi, I'm in Manchester add me if you like!
  • Hi, I am very similar, have always been around 112-115lbs but over the last year or so it has gradually crept up to around 130-132. Friends think I'm mad trying to lose weight but it's all relative to the individual & how you feel in yourself. I am only 5ft 2" and quite a small build so any extra weight is noticeable…

  • There's nothing like running round looking after a newborn to help you lose wait! Request sent & good luck!
  • I'm new to this as well & know what you mean about it being an eye opener. I couldn't believe how many calories I must have been eating in a day before joining here. Add on its way!
