Good on you for admitting it was you that didnt do the work to lose the weight, so many people say,'oh that diet didnt work for me' a diet only works if you follow it, there is a quote i love that is ' if you kinda follow the program you kinda lose weight' You have to be motivated and committed to your own health and body…

Its not compulsory to use, its a bit like a remote control on the tv, if you dont like what you see you , we do have a choice, we can always change channels

This post was started a couple of days ago, might give you some more insight http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/593587-anyone-give-up-ww-to-join-mfp

5 or 6 stalks of finely chopped celery sauteed with the onions then add cummin coriander and smoky paprika, if you are going to add some chicken i love fennel seeds as well, i tend to go to the spice drawer and keep adding until i like the end result, and its always better the next day

To be perfectly honest ' i dont have a clue' lol i just like it when it says in 5 weeks you will weigh ????? Kinda keeps me motivated. Great weight loss BTW

OMG and WOW.............what a stunner, what a transformation !!!! Well done on such an inspirational weight loss and you are very lucky Holly to have such a friend, she is so proud of you, with good reason, you need to nominate yourself as slimmer of the year in one of the slimming mags......a sure winner!!

I am a LTM from WW since 1977, went back in 2007 to lose 17 kilo, gained about 6 of that back and my cousin told me about MFP, have lost almost all of my gain back using this site, its all about commitment, WW or MFP in itself will not make you lose weight, you have to be committed and focused, if your brain is in the…

I think thats a good way to think of it, look at your journey in cycles of 4 weeks instead of weekly and if you are down after a month then all is good, as long as the numbers are trending down you are winning, but haha if it was me i would have the months weigh in the day before he flew home, try and not stress it for the…

On my history with scratch and lotto tickets it would be the mill for me, 50% of nothing is nothing but a 100% of a million is,still a million plus i reckon i would 'not tell anyone' i won a million but i couldnt keep my mouth shut with the big one lol,

You are a wonder Chelle, i am in Aus and bought some of the Miracle noodles "rice' first bag, ohhh very fishy and blah, squidgy texture, then read on here about dry frying, FANTASTIC smell gone and much much much better texture, love it!!! Anyone who has ever blanched at the texture or smell, dry fry them and you will be…

This is what my son keeps telling me, 'alcohol is preferentially metabolised by your body" in simple terms, if you drink your body is going to use those calories first and then start burning food calories.

THIS!

Same family i think, one is yellow flesh one is white.....

My thoughts exactly, when i did c25k a while ago thats exactly what i did, and i let the old head talk me into not finishing it, with me it was definitely a physiological barrier that i gave into to, i kept telling myself ' i am not a runner, i cant do this' Try not to overthink it and just go with it.............good luck

When i read the title i thought to myself ........WTF...... how can you lose 1st 7lb in 2 weeks.......then i reread it......oops...well done on a flying start!!!

i also couldnt see 'it' when looking in the mirror, i knew i must be because my clothes were falling off me but the mirror didnt show it, so i started setting my little digital camera up on timer and then hittin go.....the camera didnt lie, there it was staring me in the face............i had lost weight ........i really…

I think Bobbie Sands prooved a few years ago if you dont eat you lose weight...(said with a wink a a sense of humour)

Grab the pram, a pair of joggers and start pounding the pavement, i lost 17 kilo a few years ago with eating right and walking, used to do about 5km a day, its free gets you out in the fresh air and the kids will love it in the pram. I dont think you have to spend a lot of money on gym equipment or special programmes, You…

i dont include what is part of my normal routine, cooking cleaning grocery shopping are all part of what i do normally, i count exercise as 'getting off my but and walking or cycling' etc...but thats only my take on it

I know it is a very simplistic view, but the cause of obesity is that input is exceding output, if you eat to much and dont work it off we are going to get fat.....

oh me to......i am in WA but not the US WA, how did you manage with the storms last night

Think its to early to call it a plateau just yet.....i did something similar but i put mine down to being a woman....lost 6lb first week, got my period and then didnt lose a single ounce for another 3 weeks then i lost another 2 lb.....i find it tends to be a bit like that, if its not ttom its ovulation time, so i just…

MFP......i have tried to break the habit to once daily but i just cant do it....:wink: :wink:

ewwww that is so wrong on so many levels.....hope your not at that school now

Pffft who cares what your trainer thinks, he is your TRAINER not your counsellor, if your hubby is happy and your happy thats what matters. Talk to your girlfriends and you hubby and let your trainer train you lol

My girlfriend is 4 ft 9 and has lost 15 kilo, its about input and output, she got off her butt and exercised and watched what she was eating, and she looks amazing, it can be done!
