Daily check in Monday 10th June Track yes - out for dinner and tried a vegetarian dish that consisted of butternut squash, peppers, onions, spinach served in a bread bun. Guesstimated it at 700 but since I left most of it as it was too spicy/peppery for me, I don’t think it will impact on my totals! Calories yes under…

Oh yes! Same problem - went to Doctors with one problem and blood test gave me another - high cholesterol. No eggs, no prawns I can do but I need to lose the weight and eat the right foods. Really don’t want to take meds so I’m back on mfp and need to be accountable now so interested

Daily Post (Saturday 1st June) Track: Yes Calories: Yes under Exercise: Yes 30 minute dog walk and 20 minutes pilates Goals/Comments: Hi team members. I’m Pam, in my late 50’s and in Jan 2013 I started my journey with great support from mfp, losing 18 kilograms but, of course, it’s all back. This time I have one ripped…

Hello Slimsons! A newbie to this group but pleased to be here. Familiar story - lost the weight with great support from mfp about 5 years ago then gradually put it all back on. My knees are now complaining and I’ve now got high cholesterol so I need to lose that weight. I know it’s not going to be easy but let’s do this…

Hi, Lost the weight with mfp then put it back on! Seems harder to be motivated now I’m older. Help appreciated.

Just back on the site myself. Also lost a lot of weight some years ago but now I’m back where I started and I’m unhappy again. I’ve just bagged up dresses and trousers for charity I had loved wearing when I succeeded and put away some I hope to get into again. Now have problems with my knees and so exercise this time will…

This is exactly what I need!
-
Such a familiar story. Can't believe that I lost all that weight, felt great, got new clothes and received great compliments and yet here I am again too. Clothes hang in the wardrobe and I'm facing the loose waists and trying to ignore the scales. We know we can do it because we did. So daily honest logging with sensible…
-
I'm restarting today after putting back the weight I lost with MFP a couple of years ago. I clearly couldn't maintain without the excellent support so I'm back and ready to be supportive too.

Hiya, Pam from the UK here! Tried this many times but give up somewhere in level 2 so really need to keep going this time. Have slipped a bit and gained enough to make my clothes uncomfortable. Will do it before bed tonight.
-
I find porridge is filling - so long as it is served with calorie laden syrup! At least after that I don't want anything till lunch - which is good as there are always cakes and biscuits around at work to tempt me. Need willpower....
-
Sorry I'm late to the party! I have done level one many times but give up partway through level two. Have restarted the weight loss journey after majorly slipping and need some accountability. So I'm dusting off the DVD, rolling out the mat and grabbing some weights ....
-
I need this! Count me in - lost 3 stone and it is creeping back so I need some accountability so I can get back on track and maybe lose more
