  • I know I'm waiting it now.. its actually making me feel ill but I cant tear myself away!
  • Hi all! I'm 5"6, from the UK, current weight: 143lbs I have been around this weight for the last 6 months and its starting to get rather disheartening now :( I keep fluctuating between 142-146lbs and don't know how to break into the 130's! I am going away at the end of June (22 weeks) ... I have come to realise that I am…
  • I find sugar free drinks helps me. If im feeling a little hungry as well I normally opt for sugar free lemonade, or red bull. During the day id normally have dilute orange (no sugar added) at only about 4 calories per 250ml glass. much better than reaching for the chocolate! Gummy bear idea is very good, however I dont…
  • Snap! this is my new years resolution too, however I havent actually made 1 yet :( Im starting next week and getting the ingredients tomorrow. So far i have thought of the following recipes: frozen berries banana low fat yoghurt or apple juice strawberries, half a banana 25g of oats 1tsbsp of honey 150ml natural yoghurt. I…
  • Sorry for the late weigh in! My usual weigh in day is Sunday mornings, I remembered weighing myself last Sunday and I was 144.75.. therefore if that stays the same tomorrow I wouldve lost 0.25 this week! :| Was hoping for more than that if I have any chance of meeting my goal on the 22nd of Nov, to be 140lbs :( I have…
  • The machines in my gym and MFP are very similar to what my HRM says, give or take 50 calories or so. However, on exercises such as my spinning class, and 30 day shred, I have found a difference. For a 45 minute spin class, MFP says I would burn around 350 calories, however my HRM says anywhere between 520-600 depending on…

  • Sorry I forgot to post my weight on Friday. Official starting weight: 145lbs. I would love to be 140lbs in 3 weeks time.. But I think its an impossible task! Hoping im at least 144lbs this time next week :)
  • megcalvert, I feel your pain! The last 10lbs are definitely the hardest, or in my case, the last 15 Im more determined than ever to do this. My first goal is 140 lbs - just 5lbs.. seems so small but yet so big.. If I can reach that in 4 weeks I will be happiest girl in the world! Seems simple.. just over 1lb a week, but…
  • I would like to join please if its not too late! I would like to lose at least 10lbs by Christmas! SW: 147lbs
  • Hi, I would like to join this group! I weighed in yesterday at 145.5lbs :( the lowest I have seen so far on my MFP journey was 142lbs, but then I went on holiday to Florida.. (probably not the best place to go if you are on a diet...) When I returned I jumped straight on the scales to find that i was 147lbs!! I hoped most…
  • Hey I would like to join this group! I was 157lbs in March, and at the beginning of May I decided to do something about it. The weight started to come off extremely slowly.... but now I find myself at 145lbs (My lowest was 142lbs in August but then I went to Florida on holiday :( ) ... Now I think im stuck.. Although I got…
  • I hope its not too late to join! Ive just returned from holiday in Florida where I ate LOTS more than i should have (but i couldnt have cared less!) I returned to a scale that said I was 7lbs heavier though! eeek! - Im hoping most in water weight However, I still want to lose that 7lbs as quick as possible so I can get…

  • 08/01: 145.4 08/08: 142lbs 08/15: 08/22: 08/29: 08/31: Wow i am ECSTATIC with that! :D :D I dont think ive ever lost that much in 1 week!
  • I started off at 159lbs.. so far I am 142lbs but I am still not happy with my arms and legs, as more or less all of the weight has come off my stomach. I have set a goal at 135, so only 7lbs to go, but I think I may want to go a bit lower than that.. Most important thing is that you are happy with yourself, the scale…
  • Yes I am in! I just about reached my July goal, so this time I am going to try just a ltitle bit harder! Name: Emma Goal weight on August 31st: 140lbs 08/01: 145.4 08/08: 08/15: 08/22: 08/29: 08/31:
  • Day 4 complete! The shoulder raise and side lunges are the worst for me! I do the girly push ups, which I dont find too bad, but I cant do the proper ones yet! Hoping that I will be able to once this is all over :)
  • I eat around 7:30. I would like to eat around 6:30 however I go to the gym straight from work and dont get home until around 7:15
  • I am in the same boat, I started my journey at 154lbs, which is according to BMI a healthy weight for my height (5"6) however I would love to get down to around 135lbs. I am currently around 147, and have been hovering around this number for about 4 weeks. Its taken me 9 weeks to lose 7-8lbs, I hoped my weight loss wouldve…
  • Finished day 1 and day 2 :) the hardest part of level 1 for me is circuit 3 with the side lunge and shoulder lifts.. I can do about 5 before my shoulders start BURNING! but I guess if we didnt feel the burn then we wouldnt be working hard enough :) see you tomorrow for day 3!
  • From what I have researched and read from my wonderful MFP Pals is that you will only get an accurate reading of calories burned if you use a hrm with a chest strap. I finally ordered my polar FT4 (after hours of research) the other day. it has yet to arrive but I will be sharing my experiences with it as soon as it does…
  • thanks for the info! I just bought a hrm, hasnt been delivered yet but i will be posting some of my findings when I use it doing the shred, i have always been curious to know if mfp is accurate
  • I am :) See you tomorrow!
  • I am starting tomorrow, but I am only going to do level 1 for 4 days ( ive done about 5 days of level 1 so far but over a 2 week period) and level 2 and 3 for 10 days. On the 19th August I am going on a camping holiday so I wont have enough time to fit the whole 30 days in. I am still hoping to see results though!

  • bump I am in the exact same situation! I have gone from 154 to 147 in about 3 months.. THAT 7LBS! I am the first to admit that I enjoy the odd treat once a week, but I am working out 5 times a week, and eating much less crap than I used to but Ive still only lost a tiny amount. To top it all off, I weighed myself this…
  • How do you actually get to work? If you use a form of public transport, you can get off at a stop or station before the one you usually get off and walk? I know you say you wear dressy shoes but you could take a pair of flats or trainers in your bag which would be more comfortable for you? If you drive, what about parking…
  • cheese! i forgot that one lol ew!
