Got three, want more, still classy!

Hey lovely! Haven't done any running outside in years as it kills me so this would actually be a huge challenge for me! How does it work? x

I absolutely loved it!!! Normally hate Cruise but he was awesome, plus it's got Russell Brand and Alec Baldwin! It doesn't take itself too seriously and has lots of fantastic music and awesome clothes! I wasn't born til '86 but I'm obsessed w/ 80's rock and any film that has Bon Jovi, Poison, Def Leppard etc songs in it is…

I love bacon on toasted tea cakes, the ones with raisins in and stuff :)

I guess I've stopped wanting to be skinny and started wanting to be slimmer instead. I mean I'd love to be skinny but I do love my curves, 11 inch difference between my hips and waist means I'm always going to be curvy no matter what my weight is and I'm embracing that, I want to lose some excess fat off my hips and thighs…

Oh my goodness what a transformation, I would never have believed you are the same person. Well done!

Uk size 16/18-uk size 8/10, i feel like a totally different person. Im about 5lb more than in the 2nd picture atm but i look better as i never worked out, looking to lose another 14lb to put myself in the middle of my healthy weight range as im currently near the top end, profile picture was taken a few days ago.

Combination of 2 and 3? Cut down your cals AND work out without eating them all back? Its annoying seeing how long it will take but if you need to cut down to something "dangerous" you're probably trying to lose too much too quickly?

Thanks for your comments everybody that liked it! I think it'll make it easier for people to stick to if they see what will happen if they do/what won't happen if they don't! Math isn't fun, it's lovely having applications that do the numbers for you!

You don't NEED one, it just presents the info to you in a nice little table. If your weight loss goal isn't quite as neat as a lb a week it's not as easy as that. I like how I can see how my weight loss will be affected whether I have 1200, 1300 or 1400 calories per day, it makes a huge difference and I like having this…

If you're a small sedentary female, 1200 or thereabouts is okay. At that amount it will take me til october to lose 12lbs because my maintanence calories for my weight are only 1613 so i cant easily do the 500 cal deficit. However for a lot of people this is going to be too low, find out what your maintenance cals are and…

Kristen - 8 Amaaaaaazing body :)

Thats just plain rude. Id complain about her! Nobody can say what is or isnt sexy, its about personal preference and some men/women like bigger women! Not to mention that size 16/18s come in all different shapes, my friend wears that size just because of her massive boobs and ive def never heard anybody say that they are…

A, because I want to support my friends & maintain my weight, plus I always track what I eat & MFP is the best tool I've found to do it.

I didn't know if anybody was still going to be posting here so hi guys! :D I am down again this week, 138.4lbs, so happy with that!

I don't actually think I've ever heard one of their songs but I have a phobia of clowns so I'm not a fan haha.

Having a cheat day today as my fiance has weekend leave & it's his birthday but plan to make up for it by working out more in the week & making sure my calorie deficit for the week is on track (as suggested by somebody else in this post), it really does work!

I tend to do this without trying as I have some high days & some low days.

1600 is the amount of calories needed to maintain my weight so no, I'm not crazy, I just want to lose some weight and if I ate what you ate I would gain weight. Calorie requirements are going to differ based on height, weight, gender and activity level.

Haha i didnt forget hun, was gonna check those out too! Posting on the forum as well is just something to fill up my workday lol. Plus one can never have too many cheesecake recipes :) I love you all as much as i love cheesecake x

It's not that simple really is it? It depends what their calorie goals are for a start. At the moment I have my calorie goal set to maintenance so that I can easily see what my weekly calorie deficit is so with the odd exception I should never be in the red, even if I'm not actually losing. Everybody has different goals…

In the morning, before food & in a tshirt & pyjama bottoms usually. Try to do it once a week but usually end up doing it every day.

Try this. http://www.freedieting.com/tools/ideal_body_weight.htm

I got my 1st tattoo when i got to the 130s after getting down from the 180s and im so glad i waited til id lost the weight, it might look different if you have a lot to lose like people have said. Depends on where the ink is/how big obviously.

big difference, keep going hun! the first difference i noticed was actually on your face, you look so sad in the 1st pic & so happy in the 2nd!

Wow I wish! Thats 6lb below my goal weight haha. I'm 138lbs x

ChocoMello - 110ish? So hard to tell when I don't know how tall you are but you look tiny!

Calorie counting. Exercise makes me look better but being strict on calories was what made me lose all my weight (from the 180s down to the 130s). It sucks but it works.

Diet soda fills me up & stops me craving sweet things, I've cut down a lot but that's because of financial reasons rather than health reasons. When I had diet soda this week I realised I felt way more awake after it as well. I miss it!

Thanks guys! I just did a beginner video on youtube & enjoyed it.
