Welcome!! It just take discipline with food and exercise. Most importantly lots of MFP friends to help keep you on track and give you a virtual kick when you start slacking. I'm available for virtual kicking to those that can offer the same in return. Add me if you like. Good luck with your goal

First starting tracking your food every day. It really helps you see where your going wrong with the food you eat. Second find some exercise that you enjoy (easier said than done). Third take measurements as well as weight. It's a great way to keep motivated. Lastly get some friends to help. I had a couple of weeks where I…

Most of the people here on MFP will give you motivation. I think it's important to have a few friends who will pick you up when you're feeling a little down. Good luck and if you want to, add me as a friend.

Welcom back to MFP. My goal is 84lbs and i'm about 14lbs into it. The phone is an excellent way to keep logging i'd be lost without mine now. Good luck and if you want some support feel free to add me.

Congratulations on the birth of your daughter and the amazing weight loss so far. Good luck in reaching your goal.

It's not impossible!! I love food!! The bad thing is I don't even have to be hungry to want to eat. Since being on MFP I really have changed my eating habits because I'm more concious of what I'm eating. It's not easy somedays when the chocolate is calling my name but I can honestly say I don't miss eating the junk I used…

Welcome back. Hope you have success this time round. If you need more friends add me and i'll do my best to give you a virtual kick when you need one.

I've been on MFP since July and swear to everyone who asks if I've lost weight that it's the best site i've been on. The support from MFP members is astounding and really helps to push you through. I'm 0.2lbs of my first goal of a stone but in reality need to loose at least another 4st after that. I also just completed my…

Amazing difference. You're looking great!! What sort of exercise did you do? Well done

I don't know about others but I started off planning my food at the beginning of the day, that way I knew i'd be under my calories, instead of realising at lunch i'd has too much for the day already. Now I track as I go because I have a better idea of what everything contains and I'm more in the habit of saying no to the…

I know that a lot of people say it but...muscle weighs more than fat. It could be that instead of loosing weight your converting that nasty fat that we all have into lovely toned muscle. I went through a stage of nearly three weeks where I lost nothing and I finally got the tape measure out and found I had lost 9.5 inches…

I have back problems but nowhere near the scale of yours. My physical therapist told me that it was about strengthening the core muscles which is the muscle group that supports the back. I'm no expert by any stretch but I would suggest swimming as it's not an activity that will put a lot of strain or high impact on the…

I was the same on my very first attempt. My legs cramped and I was panting like a dog after two cycles of running. The second time I stretched really well, which I can't stress enough how much it helped all my load bearing joints!! I also lengthened my stride into a more natural pattern and I completed all but the last few…

1) What week/day are you on? W1D3 2) How do you feel? Good now. 1st attempt was terrible but dig brilliant on 2nd! 3) Have you had to repeat a week or day? No so far 4) Did you *kitten* or remove time from one of your runs? No 5) Do you notice something different about yourself yet? I noticed that the 2nd time it was…

You could try www.brandoncountrypark.co.uk in suffolk for a place to run. I've walked my dog there before and quite easily racked up 8 or 9 miles and not noticed. There's are numbered forest tracks so it would be easy to plan a route and It's only about 15mins from Thetford and there's a cafe there if people want to come…

You loose a few pounds here and few pounds there and before you know it you've lost a stone. Important that you eat your calories, exercise and drink plenty of water. I'd also say from my point of view having friends that respond to your posts is great because they help keep you motivated. When you motivate others I find…

Being active with others on the site has certainly helped keep me motivated so have plenty of friends to help. You'll be fine when you weigh yourself because remember you're not going to be that weight for long!! Once you start logging your food and exercising you'll start to see that number go down. Feel free to add me as…

I count cleaning not the full amount of time and I always put it as light cleaning even when i'm moving furniture to clean behind it. I'm burning calories so why not? I also do walking, tae bo, elliptical and have started doing C25K. I don't think it matters how people burn calories as long as they are. Some people live in…

People say things like that when they know that it's something lacking in them but they can't admit it out loud. Clearly the man was an idiot!!! Ignore those words he so foolishly uttered and keep putting yourself first. You can achieve anything you want and joining MFP shows your committed and ready to put in the effort…

You've accomplished so much and should be so proud. You're right about the stories being inspiring and you've done the same for me!! Thank you and well done!

Your welcome to add me if you'd like to. I'm on most days!

Good luck. I've sent you a request.

Good luck!!! You've made a great start and I know you can do it.

Count me in!! I'll be walking mine (or possibly crawling by the end)

I'm new to MFP...well i'm in my 2nd week but I class that as new still. I have to loose weight but I want to loose at lease 70lbs which will put me in the ideal weight range for my height and bring my BMI down to the healthy range. The site is a great resource and if you feel your resolve start to weaken you can just log…

I'm near Thetford
