I'll add you as a friend :smiley: I am trying to make a concerted effort after several false starts. I was starting to feel a tad frustrated but I prayed about it and have a sense of peace now.

Thanks so much! I’m really enjoying getting peace from the Lord about where I am and just doing the basic things. The support you received from the tumblr group is so good. You look amazing 😻

Hi @CurvyEmmy, glad to cyber meet you. Id be happy to encourage and pray in agreement with you. Is there anything specific that you’d like prayer on ie anything that keeps sabotaging your attempts to get healthier? I’m unhappy with myself because I recently went up in weight and I hate the sensation. I’m also fighting…

Not sure if this thread has been replaced but keen to meet Christians who are going through the weight loss process 😄

I’ve been looking for a buddy too. I know it’s been a few days you’ve posted. How have the past few days been?

Someone who encourages you to keep going (and you do the same for them). You share progress and helps you get over amy set backs

I’d like to be included too. How does it work do we post here?

I did the same exact thing during one of my weight loss endeavours. I was eating under calorie and exercising my socks off the scale did not budge at all. Then I weighed myself on some pharmacy scales and was shocked to realise that I had been losing weight. Turned out I had been placing the scales on carpet which never…

Looking for accountability partners too. Please feel free to add me too. I’ve been trying to get back on track for a while. Ready to lose the weight but also to get an exercise routine

I’d be keen to know. I linked my iOS phone to Fitbit and I haven’t seen it on the dashboard either

Would you say that if the title of the thread was ‘cycling friends’ or ‘Pilates friends’ or ‘Angel Worship friends’? Often times the need to have Christian contacts is not to filter out friendships based on mutual respect but a non Christians differ in their ability to empathise in the reference points or reasons for doing…

The worst thing you can do is to look to frienda or people in your daily life circles full stop when you are loosing weight. Some of your friends may not notice a difference because weight loss is gradual and if they see you on a daily basis it can take ages to notice. Some friends do love you but your losing weight might…

I think it happens to everyone. People told me when I should stop losing weight and I nodded and ignored them. I was annoyed that they thought my weight was their business. You've mentioned that some of your family members are larger... Now I am not saying this as fact but your achievement may be shining a light on…

I have to agree. I've gone through the posts and folk are using this as an opportunity to be catty and then calling it 'tough love'. Oh Please! Yeh right, just Totally forget about the fact that someone,s esteem is being ripped to shreds in the process whilst you issue your 'tough love'. To answer the question: When I…

I hope it's not late to join: SW=204 CW=158 GW=147 Hoping to get to 147lbs by end of June :-)

I know what you mean, it's weird to explain but you get close to a goal and it's as though part of you doesn't want to achieve it.

I don't think it's human nature i think it's a mean thing to do. I had someone do this to me. This woman was as skinny as a rake herself, but as soon as she noticed I was losing weight she did all sorts of things to take me off track. If I was you I'd take a slice and chuck it in the bin, make them think you've had some…

well done to you - 5 miles is excellent. how did you feel this morning? lol

I've been really busy at work but just decided I need to get back into this. I don't want it to suddenly be May and I am trying to lose the last few pounds, lol

Amen!

hi! :-)

if looking to ourselves for potential was enough then we definitely wouldn't need outside help, ie websites such as my fitness pal wouldn't exist. my fitness pal does not have all the answers, a lot of people go through thing where you literally come to the end of yourself, you have tried everything and God is there to…

Thanks so much for posting all the links I have just about joined all the groups as i need to be around others who are hot-pressed to move into a healthier life style :-)

I have the final 10lb to shift and I have dithered about it for ages, I just want to get rid of it. I have had my last day of overeating today; I'm back on the bandwagon tomorrow...I just keep thinking that when the weather gets warmer I'll regret not having taken care of it now...

I've always added it as high impact aerobics (20 mins). :-)
