It is harder as you get older - not for everyone judging by some of the replies - but for the majority of us I would say. I weigh and log everything to the gram and I exercise at least 5 days a week. I have started running which makes me feel great! The weight comes off slowly though - but there are other benefits ... the…

I have now managed to get a look at your photo's - they are amazing - you should be very proud of yourself and your fantastic achievement!!!

bump so that i can see the pictures when i get home!

Amazing! You look so much much better - younger and more handsome. I imagine that you feel like a million dollars - well done!

Well done! you look like you could fit into just one leg of your jeans!!

Makes us think carefully about what we are going to do from this point on!

I get my lunch at work which is provided free of charge to me - it is up to me what I choose to eat - so for the most part I make healthy choices - salads with no dressings etc. To have extra treats I go to the gym here every day and run and exercise. There will always be temptations no matter where we are and the whole…

Excellent results - and you have a beautiful neck now too .... well done :)

I know it seems like a huge jump but ... YOU CAN DO IT!!!! You will find that once you get to a certain amount of minutes - for me it is about 10 - you will get past the mental block and you will be able to complete the run. Week 6 ends with a 25 minute run and I never thought I could do it ... but I did and I was so proud…

Congratulations to OP and others on their fantastic NSV's. My NSV today is that after my monthly body fat check I have lost 3.2% body fat. My loss of actual weight for the month is 2 kg but my fat loss is 3.4kg so building up the lean and losing the fat. To say I am happy is an understatement ! :bigsmile:

Open ... feel free to have a look :)

This! I weigh everything even at work and if I want something - I find out how many calories etc are in it and then if I REALLY want it and think the 'cost' is worth it - I have it ! Having said that - mostly when I find out how much something is going to 'cost' me I weigh it up against how long I will have to run or…

It is a very difficult situation to be in and obviously we don't know how we would behave in those circumstances. My own feeling is that yes he has made the choice and is responsible for his own death - he knew the consequences. I have not watched the programme so I dont' know who was getting the food for him, I don't…

Excellent job - brillant attitude :)

Bump for later

You are to be congratulated on your achievement ... you look so good now - Well done!!!!

Hi there ... feel free to add me if you want someone who is on mfp every day and logging food every day and is supportive too. In return I like my friends to have an open diary as I like to be able to make positive comments and don't feel I can if I can't see what you eat.

I think that is really good for people to see how much weight can fluctuate day by day. I weigh every day but don't get discouraged if my weight is up on some days as I know that I cannot possibly have put on even a single pound overnight as I would have had to eat an extra 3,600 calories !! Sometimes people set too much…

Well!!! who could resist you !!! :bigsmile:

Quote " Once you get past that point where you feel sick like you're going to throw up and like you can't run another step, if suddenly gets easier. It's like you still feel the stress on your body, but you're above and beyond it. So. I think getting over that hump is essential to improving time." end quote I am two thirds…

Well!! that put the cat amongst the pigeons!! :laugh:

A previous poster said - "Why people need "experts" to tell them what they deep-down already know, I'll never get." [/quote] It's not so much that people need experts to tell them what they deep-down know already ..... it is more a case that they want to be accountable to someone else and/or hold someone else accountable…

"So, I was wrong before, but now I am right so sign up here." Makes you think doesn't it .... seems like this person has now set up her own business putting right all the damage she alleges that she inadvertently caused previously :ohwell: .... sounds a little like a good sales pitch to me :huh:

open :bigsmile:

Hello and welcome! This site works really well if you find friends who can give you encouragement ... and you can encourage in return. I will send you a friend request. Please feel free to accept or if you decide not to then that is ok too. I interact with most of my MFP friends on a daily basis and will give honest…

Yours is a great story of a person finally taking responsibility for himself. In the end this is what it comes down to - we can try every slimming club there is but until we decide for ourselves that we alone are going to be responsible for what we put into our mouths and what exercise we are going to give our bodies…
