  • I'd love to be a UK size 10 again - (that's USA 6). I'm just 5' 1" and 53 - so I don't want to look scary and scrawny - so if I just get rid of all the flabby lumpy bits, and tone up and have a healthy lifestyle for the rest of my life - I'll be delighted!!! That's my aim. I also feel a duty to my young teenage daughter to…
  • Skyrocket123 - I did hit a wall for a couple of weeks, but I could feel my clothes getting looser - so I didn't let it get to me - and now the weight is reducing again! Good luck!!!
  • sorry - just thought of an extra thing I do - I put all the kids' halloween sweets (candy) in a bag and tied a knot in it!
  • Blackballoon, I find it really hard to control sugar as I have a sweet tooth - it is really addictive stuff! I try to avoid it though, as I recognise that it causes metabolism swings, and gives you this temporary feeling of hyper activity which then leads to more craving, and feelings of hunger. So I personally drink lots…

  • Level 2, day five today - I missed yesterday and another day a few days ago due to pressure at work - but had a good return today.

  • Hi - I'm most interested in the replies here too. I have surprised myself by the amount I can eat (when making healthy choices) up to the 1200 calories a day - and I have had a couple of healthy snacks to make up the calories. I drink all the water each day. I am losing weight steadily (still early days - but it is the…
  • Hi everyone - good idea - I like the support on this network (I think of you when I want to snack!) I want these results - so - thank you all! Daily goal - drink the water (isn't it funny who we are all bad at this - I want to have a glass with each main meal, one in between each meal and one when I get up - and I suppose…
  • Hi - Im new to this too - but I read that eat back half the exercise calories is good. Seems to be working so far. Good luck.
  • Hello - good post and great start! I have found that daily tracking is helping and analysing what I've eaten is getting me towards making healthy choices (I eat too many carbs) I'm finding my way - so these tips will help as I am not planning ahead yet and I think I should. MFP makes me conscious of eating healthily, and…

  • Hi - I'd like us to support each other as we have similar goals (I'm shorter and heavier at 5'1" and 170 lbs - goal 130lbs - and I also have a busy lifestyle and struggle to get some daily exercise in - so it would be great to motivate each other, if possible. Good luck, in any case, Lori
