I still have 5-8 kgs/ 11-17pounds I would like to lose. edited to add a face comparison as well :-) I can really notice the difference in my neck, I actually have one…

[You have really nice eyes ] this was me at my heaviest in March 2012 78kgs I can't believe the size of my neck and my collarbones could not be seen under layers of fat :-( this is a "in progress picture" in June 2012 at about 69kgs, a loss of 9kgs.. and I now have my neck back…

Hi and welcome :-) I am almost 40 eeek! and have 5 children aged 15 down to 3. I am a SAHM and my husband works away for 1 week and home for 1 week, so yes I am kept pretty busy. I have always been a slim person , didn't have a lot of trouble getting the excess weight off after my pregnancies, even with my last baby I…

My husband does FI/FO week on week off and it is sooooo hard to be good the week he is home. He likes to have a couple of beers in the evening and I like to have a couple of wines, coffee's at the coffee shop, and my exercise routine goes out the window :( I have yet to find my strength to say no to all the "naughties" and…

Please don't quote my photo's. This is my first time posting them, a bit nervous :blushing: work in progress. Everyone is so inspirational :heart:

Hi I am a mum to 5 children aged 21/2 yrs up to 14yrs. Please feel free to friend me :) would love some more supportive friends :) There are a few of us on here, is there a Mom Of Many private group where we all could chat and give support?

Bump :smile:

Good job!! I can see the difference for sure :) May I ask how tall you are? I started out at 78kgs and it's taken a 10kg loss for me before people started to notice..

I love to read, haven't done much over the last few years, just starting to get back into it now though. I love romance and the odd thriller. My fav authors are Danielle Steel , Jane Green [just finished Patchwork Marriage] and Dean Koontz. I am trying to read "I see you" by Gregg Hurwitz but struggling to get into it... I…

I have only lost half of what I would like to lose....I haven't brought any new clothes yet, they are feeling a bit lose but still fit ok [so I thought]....when visiting friends today I haven't seen for about 5 weeks, one [a male] asked if I had a butt somewhere in my pants:laugh: I hadn't realised just how baggy they were.

Yes, for me it has gotten easier, and believe me I have never been a morning person, let alone getting out of bed before 7:30am. It was extremely hard for me to get up at 4:45am to go for a walk before the kids woke up to get ready for school. Now, if I am not getting up to go for a walk , I wake at 4:45am anyway, I think…

You look great!! A real inspiration, thanks for sharing :smile:

Awesome!! You have done a fantastic job and look fabulous!! You have earnt a spot to look hot on the beach, go and rock that bikini!!

Yes!! I am 5foot4 and have lost 10kgs [22lbs] in 35 days on MFP and I have had relaxed eating days :wink: and slack exercising days! I am *cough* 38yrs old [they say it is harder to lose weight over the age of 30? ] So I am sure if you really want to lose 21lbs then 15 weeks is plenty of time :) Good luck :)

So not alone!! I go to la la land when I am walking, probably why I like to walk for at least an hour lol! I love my la la land and often don't want to came back to reality :bigsmile:

Hi I have a snacking problem too, yes purely from boredom/ habit.... I still snack but no longer on chocolate,chips, coke a cola, biscuits, lollies, cake. I now snack on FRUIT, lots of fresh fruit, and some nuts and seeds daily. When I really feel the urge for some of the "naughty" snacking I pop some popcorn or I'll have…
