That's brilliant, we'll done :)

Have added you. I'm impressed just that you did the GNR, I'd love to be able to do that one day! I'm sure your performance will improve soon enough doing 2-3 runs a week. I'm also aiming to do 3 runs a week.

Sounds great - I'll send you a friend request :)

I put on weight in the first couple weeks of gamma then it fell off again. I think maybe it was retained water from increasing the intensity of the workout? I love T25, I'm starting my second round of gamma tonight :)

Yes, me! Although my little boy is 17 months now lol I started as soon as I stopped breastfeeding 6 months ago. I was just under 12 stone and today I am 10st 6lbs. I want to get down to 10st and then see if I feel like I need to lose a little bit more. Add me for moral support if you like, I'm always active on here.

SW 154 CW 147.75 August goal 148 Didn't realise I'd already made it to my August goal until I came here to update, I had to check it a few times before posting because I didn't believe it lol I'm now going to try and get another 3lbs off by the end of August.

I'm doing focus T25 at the moment and I'm nearly finished week 5. I borrowed it from a friend so didn't have to pay for it, thankfully. I'm seeing some results, my arms and shoulders are looking nice and toned and my stomach is definitely getting tighter. I've also noticed my overall fitness level is better when I do other…

I normally like to stick to about 200 calories or less for breakfast as I prefer to have a big evening meal instead. So breakfast for me is usually just a yogurt and a cup of tea. But at the weekend I usually have something a bit more filling like a toasted cinnamon bagel or teacake with light margarine, or a boiled egg…

I work full time 5 days a week and have 2 small kids so I don't have a lot of spare time! I go to the gym in my lunch break twice a week just for half an hour; one night a week my husband has the kids in the evening so that I can go to the gym and I do 2 classes back to back; and my husband and I are also doing T25 5…

Current weight 154 Goal weight 135 August goal 148 There is a pilates class that starts immediately after my Monday night gym session, I'm going to make sure I do that class every Monday in August.

Hi I'm Sarah from Yorkshire, UK. I'm here to lose the last of my baby weight. I have 2 children, with the first one I gained 40lbs and lost it all using mfp 2 years ago. But no sooner had I finished losing it all and getting super fit and I got pregnant again! I initially tried to continue exercising and logging my…

I wish I hadn't cheated on mfp when I tried it earlier on this year. Anything "naughty" that I wanted to eat I just didn't bother logging in mfp....then I wondered why I didn't lose any weight! If I'd just been honest with myself, logged everything and stuck within my calories I could have been almost at goal by now.

Can I join please? :smiley:

When you say "active" are we talking active as in on this site every day or active as in must be at least doing a 10 mile hike across the moors before breakfast every day? I'm not so good at the second one...

Add me I'd you like! I'm a good commenter. I'll even throw in some bad jokes that nobody else finds funny for free :)

LOL this would totally be me if I ever tried to cut out carbs! I just can't sustain a diet where I have to completely cut out something. To me, a life without potatoes, pasta and pizza would not be worth living

Shopping for lots of tight-fitting new clothes. Especially things like pencil skirts with tops that tuck in for the office. Then I'm going to wear skinny jeans with high heels without looking like a hippo on stilts

I like prelog my whole day too, usually with the sole purpose of being able to factor in a sweet treat for after my evening meal! Must admit I don't tend to worry too much about my macros though. Add me if you like, I'm new here and don't have very many buddies yet. I've got about 15-20lbs to lose.

Somebody asked me when my baby was due. There was no baby.

Absolutely incredible! One of the most inspiring success stories I've ever read :star:

If you get bored of shakes you can always freeze it to make yourself a delicious new flavour of ice cream: I'd call it "double broc-chick-chunk surprise" the surprise is more broccoli.

Definitely agree about the bread, I was shocked to find out that there's near enough 200 calories in one tortilla - I don't even like tortillas all that much but I'd have them because I thought they were better than normal bread but actually one tortilla is only something like 10 calories less than 2 slices of normal bread…

Thank you for this, I really enjoyed reading it. I have to say that when people have in conversation used the terms "starvation mode" and "muscle weighs more than fat" it's never really made sense to me, but I'm not sciencey enough to be able to explain why I've always suspected they were myths. This has answered that for…

I'll be your buddy if you like? I'm 11st 1lb and want to be somewhere between 9 and 10st. I get people telling me I don't need to lose weight too but I want to shift all my baby weight, get back to where I was before I had kids and fit into my old clothes. I'm pretty new to the community section of MFP so I've no idea how…

I like to save up a couple of hundred calories each day so I can have a little treat in the evening. Actually, quite often it gets to 9pm and I don't fancy my planned treat anymore so I don't bother having it - but it's just good to know I have enough calories left in my allowance to have that treat if I wanted it. I think…

At 14 months it wouldn't be the end of the world if he didn't want to drink milk as long as he gets a good balanced diet with plenty of calcium from other sources. My son is 14 months now and only has a small beaker of milk twice a day. I weaned him at 11 months and he took the change fine. However I'd say it'll be the…

I've actually found herbalife to be a very motivating for my diet personally. Before I discovered it I was really struggling to get in the zone and stick to my diet... Then a friend of mine started harassing me on Facebook about buying her herbalife products. So now I'm completely determined to show her that I can lose…
