Hi Ash, im the same trying to lose some before xmas and agree its easy to overdo it at the weekends but being slimmer by christmas will be worth it!, feel free to add me! :)

Hi, ive lost 22 pounds and am getting to quite a happy stage with my weight now, i have pictures in my profile - feel free to add me. It has taken me almost 6 months to lose the weight. Best of luck to u all - u can do it, its worth it :)

Hi, I am 27 and also 5'2. I started on MFP in January eating at 1200 calories a day and fitting in lots of exercise. I lost steadily. Then I got really tired and felt burnt out so increased my calories and relaxed my exercise and lost again. I think an hour a day most days is too much exercise, at least it was for me and I…

Hi, Im between 5'1 and 5'2, I started in January at about 141 pounds and I really hated the way I looked, my goal has always been to get to 110 pounds. Im now at 121 pounds and am considering changing my goal to 115 pounds with a bigger focus on toning and exercise to get the body I want. I was 110 pounds when i was 19 and…

Great to see i'm not the only one in this boat, my scale has not moved in 4 weeks yet inches are coming off, it is making me wonder if the goal weight will ever be reachable.? as long as inches are coming off, i guess who cares though?!

I seen a big difference after the first month and was motivated from then on. Go for it - u have nothing to lose!

Ive completely reduced my intake of orange juice, olive oil, margarine and alcohol, alcohol is still a vice but i'm seeing good results,:)

Get committed to walking everywhere, the difference it can make is surprising:)

Eat water rich foods like melon and cucumber and use a good hand cream. If your weather is really cold though that could be the issue

Well done,!! I see a big difference from your pics, i'm 5'2 and started mfp in January too, Keep up your great work!!

i eat the majority of my calories at the latter end of the day and i'm still losing weight, so can't be that bad

Hi, I have been logging on MFP since January: SW: 64.4KG CW: 57.2KG GW: 50.0KG (so far) Here are my progress pics by month so far- pics taken December, January, Feb, & March. Starting the summer challenge to keep me motivated and to hopefully reach my goal this summer! Best of luck to everyone and if anyone wants to add…

For me, it's mostly been from buying a Fitbit, highly recommend. I also bought a cross trainer which is great for when I can't make it to the gym (i'm not able to make the gym as often as i'd like), so it definitely helps!

You will do it, i've found MFP to be really motivating:) sending you a request.

I've added you too

Well done!!

I drink pretty much every tea apart from ordinary tea, I drink green tea now and again, but my favee teas are the herbal ones and camomile with honey.

I'm in Spain, feel free to add me, been logging on MFP since January

Hi I found this description of activity levels which is useful and easy for people to compare their daily activity against:- A paper on metabolism used a definition of "vigorous exercise" as expenditure of 14.1 to 16.3 kcal/kg of ideal body weight per day.[1] Using the rounded figure of 15 Calories per kilogram of body…

Hi, i'm from Scotland, no longer living in UK but feel free to add me, on MFP every day, determined to lose another stone and a half

A vodka and diet redbull, which I am enjoying tonight

hi, know how you feel, being so short any extra weight does show on us guys. However, I have been logging on mfp religiously since 1st jan and going well so far, feel free to add me anyone :)

I'm on day three of using my new fitbit and have reached over 15k yay, I would struggle to meet this every day though! The 10k is far more manageable.

Hi, I've just bought a Fitbit one today, i've got an open diary and i'm from the UK originally. Will send you a request. If anyone else is the same, please add me too :)

I love carbs too much to give them up. I'm only the second month in on this, but it's working so far and i've not restricted my carbs and I eat them regardless of the time of day or night. That being said, there are always options to reduce carbs/calories by choosing a healthier bread with less calories etc, these…

The opposite to how I thought it would come off, first, my legs, my trousers feel so baggy now and people have commented on it, some off my stomach and face, but wish more would come off my arms and chubby face lol

Hi, my diary is open, I don't have the most interesting food diary, but I try, feel free to add me : ) I've been logging since January

Huge congrats, thanks so much for sharing - very inspiring! :)

Hi, well done on your loss! :) , it's amazing the difference logging calories actually has. I've been doing this since the 1st of January and i've lost over half a stone. Will send you a friend request.

Green tea and herbal teas are really good for giving you a boost, there are plenty of flavoured varieties around and at only 2 calories a cup they are worth drinking. I heard you have to drink 4 cups a day to notice a difference metabolism/weight wise, but I've no idea if that is true or not!
