OMG, I am really shocked, guns, mace, pepper sprays to go for a run!!! I find it very sad that the majority of people that have responded to this thread feel the need to take some kind of protection with them to go out for a run. I live in Scotland and it feels like I live on a different planet.

Yes, 100% honest

Agreed, who are you cheating, we all have personal responsibility for what we eat. No food is off limits for me,

Agree

I think it's been about 200 days now and I have lost 2 stone in weight. This loss is due to logging my food and getting advice and support from my fantastic group of friends on MFP. This has been a change of life not a diet and my friends on MFP have supported me through the ups and down of this process. I don't see me…

Like

MFP, Fitbit and choosing that I want to change. :-)

Another vote for Fitbit, it's the best on the market in all the reviews.:smile:

Thanks for posting, this is great!!!

The scales that have been recommended to me the most are the Fitbit Aria scales. They do some of the things that you don't want but you could always just not switch on these bits of functionality. I plan to order them when I get back to the UK.

Your look fantastic, well done, you are an inspiration :-)

Lol

Drink water it makes a big difference, and stick at it, you are making a lifestyle change which will take time.

Keep doing what you are doing as it's working, if it stops working over a few weeks then you can consider a change. The target is slow and steady weight loss which is achieved by a lifestyle change, not a crash diet. Your calories intake is based on your starting weight so I would not expect your target to be anywhere near…

The only person you are in control of is yourself. Keep working or your goals, being a great mum and a solid role model. In time you will need to decide if you are happy to continue with your current partner or if you reliase that you are worth much more, again you are in control of this. I always come back to my children…

You have lost weight before which is good as you know how to do it. That"s positive you know you CAN do it again. The 2 best bits of advice I have been given are drink water and log everything everyday. The better you understand your eating habits the better choices you are able to make. Dust yourself own, try and stay…

Feel free to add me. I'm from Dunfermline, in bonny Scotland. :-)

I'm not great at breakfast. The Belvita Breakfast Biscuits have been working well for me. If I'm short of time I can put a pack in my pocket and eat them on the way to work.

Lots of good advice in the posts above.I. I suggest you make sure your net intake is over 1,000 per day.

Wow, what an amazing post. Thanks so much for sharing. Your writing skills are fantastic, I could picture the entire scene before my eyes as I read your story. I've never had an eating disorder but I think I understand it a bit better. Thank you.

Feel free to add me. Heather4275' and welcome :)
