You can add me too :) I'm always looking for inspiration from others as well as doing what I can to help or advise others x

I'm 45, never go to a gym ( too self conscious!) work out at home too. I've lost around 38 pounds and now maintaining my current 128 pounds Any new friends welcome :) I'm always looking for inspiration to keep me on track :) x

I'm 5ft 7in and at my heaviest ever I was 213lbs (quite few years ago) last year I joined MFP when I weighed 165lbs and I'm now 125lbs :) I originally aimed to reach 140lbs that was my goal, but as you cant choose where to lose the weight from, I kept going as my hips/thighs/legs were still quite heavy. I kept at it hoping…

thats brilliant, great achievement, keep up your good work as its paying off! x

brilliant results! :) x

To start me off I used an exercise bike and lots of walking. I then decided to do the Shred and within a fairly short space of time I noticed the difference. I just kept at it basically! I still choose to walk rather than drive, I still regularly use the bike and do the Shred. I eat a healthy diet and keep my fat intake…

fantastic achievements!

thanks for the comments, it gives me encouragement to keep it up! Did I post the URL for my pic wrong? lol x

Hi and welcome, I've been here 170 days now and have lost over 35 pounds in that time!

Please feel free to add me as a friend :) It can…

fantastic work! Congratulations :) x

thanks everyone. My thyroid was last checked around 6 months ago and meds are as they should be. I have no idea what my vitamin D level is but as I stay in Scotland and the sun is a good source I reckon I dont get anywhere near enough LOL! Perhaps a vit D supplement would help. I do take lots of fluids, I regularly forget…

Hi and welcome :-) I love walking and eating too LOL Walking is the only exercise I can do without feeling I'm forcing myself into it :-) I joined MFP just a few weeks ago and it definitely has helped me stay on the straight and narrow! I'm sure you will find lots of friends here willing to cheer you on your way to a…

thank you :) very helpful advice! I will have a look at doing more exercise to build the muscle in my legs and keep at it!

I checked mine last week and I was 54. Not entirely sure how accurate it is (using the heart rate app on my iphone) but over the last few weeks it has been slowly decreasing as I've lost weight and gained some fitness. Last time the doctor checked it was a couple of months ago and it was 62.

Hi Jolene, I am new too and happy to have friends to help me along the way! So please add me too we can all support each other :) x

I weigh myself almost every day and it's not a good idea! I think a weekly weigh in is more than enough. Before heading into the shower I see the scales and find the temptation to jump on them is too much ......... then I berate myself if it's not gone down and I get annoyed and despondent. I keep telling myself that…

Hi, thank you for the welcome :) I agree about MFP helping make a healthier choice with food. I exercise now - before I struggled with that side of things badly! Some days it feels like a real toil but Ive managed to keep it up now for 6 weeks exercising at least 5 days per week, but more often than not 7 days.. I always…
