Hi Nicole, feel free to add me. I'm a consistent MFP logger so am usually around!

Sending you so much love! You can do this. I know because I did it. Been logging consistently for 3 years now and am at my 'maintenance' weight. So feel free to add me. Same goes for anyone else reading this. <3

Welcome, shoppingwendy! Feel free to add me. Tried adding you already but I just get an error message. Hope you're enjoying MFP so far. I've been logging in for 3+ years now and I find it really helpful for checking my eating habits and staying at my maintenance weight.

Welcome! Add me if you like. Been an MFP regular for over 3 years now so I'm usually about.

You can do it, Trisha! I was on MFP quite some time before I started to take it more seriously. I've now been at my ideal size for a good while now. It's definitely possible for you too! Feel free to add me for encouragement if you like.

I'm 31 about to be 32! :)

You still shed 30lbs, that's something to be proud of!

You can do it! Feel free to add me if you need support, either of you.

This is a great awareness to have and you're certainly not alone!

I'm in Hampshire too!

Hi Katie! I've never been addicted to soda but I have overcome binge eating disorder and I know the struggle with sugar is real! I log in to MFP every day so if you're looking for support do connect with me. That goes for anyone else on this thread too!

Hi! I'm using MFP and the Venus method too! I'm just finishing week 12 for the first time. Feel free to add me!

Hi there! Well done for recovering, that's fab! Just start with baby steps, you can do it. Feel free to add me as a friend on here. I'm currently on a roll with logging in to MFP: 50 day streak! So am usually around for mutual support.

Hi all! Just discovered the Venus Index yesterday! Feel free to add me!

Hi :smile: No need to be embarrassed. Everybody slips up from time to time. If that inner voice starts criticising you for this, thank it for its input and send it on its way! Be kind to yourself today, you especially need compassion when you're tired. How are you doing now?

I just moved to (East) Hampshire a few weeks ago... Anyone else around these parts? I lived in Leeds before. Just started with MFP again and would love to have some active peeps on my newsfeed if anyone wants to connect!

Hi, I just started using MFP again and am looking for active members for mutual support. You're welcome to add me if you like.

I wouldn't say that you are being selfish at all. You need to put yourself first before you can take care of others. ME/CFS forces you to do that. I'm glad that you found you were able to do more recently. It sounds like what you have been doing is just what you needed. Is the good spell continuing?

Hi, how is the physical therapy going on your knee? Did everything turn out alright at the GI doctor's appointment?

I'm in the same boat so it's nice to connect with you! :)

Hi, I love the pic. Is that your lab puppy? Adorable! Feel free to add me. I'm all about increasing the fitness levels at the moment. I mean, I was before, but I've got a challenge coming up soon...:happy:

Feel free to add me! :)

Hi everyone! I haven't signed in for ages so feel like I'm 'new' again! For those who don't know/remember me, I was diagnosed with CFS in 2010 after my health gradually deteriorated then crashed, and since then I've been working on building myself back up to recovery. Iron_Pheonix, I think that I agree with just about…

Goooo team, goooooooooo!:tongue:

Oh, I didn't know you had fibro! This group was just recently set up. Such a fab idea. I think I'm going to aim for 21lbs by Christmas. Eeep! Scary.

From what you have said it seems like you are projecting your fears, because from the conversation you had it sounds like he was just making what he sees to be a rational point. Have you told him that you view pregnancy as different to simply weight gain? I agree with you, pregnancy is moving forward and gaining something…

Hi, I'm 26 and have put on weight due to ill health over the past few years. My fella has been slender since we got together about 6 years ago. He recently took up running to raise money for the charity helping me get my health back on track, which is fantastic but now he's even slimmer, I really notice those extra pounds…

Where do you get brown rice pasta from? I often avoid the gluten-free corn-based pastas because they tamper with the blood sugar, but this wonder product sounds more feasible!

Fresh fruit and vegetable juice helps me. This is because the digestive system can become clogged up due to the body preserving energy so not flushing out the waste, but juicing is a way to clean out the system and get live nutrients circulating within 20 minutes. I have been on a dairy free diet since 2005 because dairy…

If you're still losing weight this way, it's good enough for me! Thanks.
