There's a quite a few fellow Brits on here - I've been loitering around for a couple of years dropping about 5.5stone in the process, but with still 3st to go I'm starting a fresh push after a long stall... Happy to have a few more along for the ride. :)

The IT industry has a lot to answer for.. It's a job requirement to eat too many pies.
-
hmm... not sure Brickhill is the wrong side of the tracks ;)
-
Only just 40, already shifted 5.5st, but still another 3 to go - trying to get back in the swing of it again - the more the merrier..
-
There's a restraining order stopping me :(
-
From Bedford , 5st (almost) down, 3 to go, always on or around.

Chunky peanut butter on thick white toast, easy to count, easy to make, sort you right out...

Had a nice meal once in the old bridge hotel (back when I was allowed to eat).

Sent you a request, strength in numbers and all that..!

Pies, lots and lots of pies...
-
Holy crap you made me panic then... Then I remembered in the uk it was back In march.. Phew. But happy Mother's Day if its your day today out there in the world..

The sodium/salt in the database on foods drives me mental - and the barcode scanner gets it wrong , I share your peev.

Been going for about 6 months, 35lbs down, a shed load more to go.. Here everyday, looking for more uk peeps. Any committed uk'ers welcome.

Recently I've been doing it daily, in the morning, fully dressed (going to keep the bollock naked weigh in for a bonus at the end) so I can track just how much I fluctuate day in day out. Then I only record a weight when I get the same reading twice. Keeps me going. :)

Yeah, once the initial freefall ends its a bugger to get going again, try and bring the end of day net total up a bit.. But do it gradually . Exactly the same thing happened to me as my net after food - calories burned was too low. (Careful trusting mfp's calories burned though exercise though, it tends to come in on the…

Probably too much salt

Vinegar.. Works a treat with greens.
-
<--- name says it all :). If you can't laugh what can you do...?
-
i was way off ;)
-
Have to ask.. 'hump day'?
-
Agree on the graze boxes - they're a really good little snack, out side of that grapes are a really good way to go..
-
I'm trying to make sure it's more of a 'little 40' than a 'big 40' too, got 18 months to get there... Happy to support if I can. And yep.. If you eat it, log it, it's the only way to go :)

My name isn't Krista.... But I still hope your day gets better :)

Hi Gemma, I was (am) in a similar boat - except 10 yrs further down the line staring 40 in the face... what's worked for me getting back into exercise is starting small with walking during my lunch - 20 mins, then 30, then how far i can get and back in 40. a couple of weeks of that and the improvement in how easy it got…

This probably wont help.. but what the heck is chicken fried steak!! .. sounds evil (in a good/bad way)

Hi Matt, As a fellow almost 40 I know that motivation :)
-
Well done mate.. 6.5 stone is epic. Keep going (will you be changing your user name soon? :) )
-
I use the endomondo app on my phone, it tracks distance, route etc using GPS , then on the website it'll show you total distances, (I load my exercise bike durations and distances on there - almost done 100 miles in the last 11 days )
-
Have you used different trackers like endomondo for logging exercise, loads of stats (like how many burgers you've burned off :)
-
For many years a similar story... But you've just got to knuckle down and want to make a change , then get busy doing it ... If you're committed you can do it.. It's gets easier with time, you've just got to get the early days conquered...
