Thanks mmk137. I am not so technology savvy but I will get my son to help me with this. You seem very knowledgeable in many aspects about fitness, foods etc.. Thanks once again. Cheers

I agree with you. Cheers

Thanks. I need it. And thanks for asking the question. It is very informative for "L'" platers like me reading forums like these. Cheers

I joined MFP about 3 weeks ago and I am a bit disheartened also that I am not really losing any weights at all. I am doing more exercises and adhering to my quota. I am on 1200 calories per day; the same calories Jenny Craig has allowed me to have. The thing I can think of is my eating back calories I earned from doing…

Thanks for info. I too was looking for recipes. Cheers

I totally agree with you. That was what happened to me when I was with Jenny Craig. I dropped out before reaching my goal weight and I did put 5 kgs back ( lost 9 kgs whilst on it for many months) after giving Jenny Craig away. I went back to Jenny Craig about a month ago for another two weeks but decided to give it away…

Same here. I am not losing as fast as when I was with Jenny Craig. Today for example I was a bit dismayed to find I only lost 0.1 kg since last weigh-in whilst MFP friends lost a lot lot more. And I adhered to 1200 calories ( may be a bit over on some days) and did exercises , more exercises than when I was with Jenny…

Pleased to see someone has asked the question. I agree with you. I have read a number of terminologies in here like "bump" I have never seen in my life before ( except bump with diferrent meaning ) but too embarassed to ask. Is there a section in here where we can read definitions / meanings for MFP 'L" platers like myself…

Yes these 2 two do wonders for me too plus of course retail therapy! Cheers

Busy Women. That rings a bell. I am a single Mum and I run my own demanding business of supplying foods, charts and publications, duty-free alcohol and cigs, spare parts, Simcards, phonecards, etc. to huge tankers, dredging vessels, tugs, yachts, bulk cargo foreign ships, container ships etc.. and now have expanded to…

Lol. I am very pleased to see someone had the courage to ask what bump means? I kept reading someone saying it and I nearly google search meaning of the word. Well, yesterday the word fitbit was used. I did not know what it was. I thought she misspelled it? Then I google searched it. Thank goodness for google. I was…

That is what I have done this morning. I felt like eating left-over rice and chicken for breakfast. I am still full and more than likely will hv very light lunch. Cheers

Yes, chivlaryryder. I agree with you. In 1979 there were only 4 of us in Gladstone. Now there are about 10? basketball teams! Filipino Doctors, Nurses, Lawyers, Surveyors, wedlders, etc.. At one stage we were considered the "Brown Perils " ! Cheers

Hi. I am Philippine-born but Naturalized Australian since 1979. I have lived in Gladstone, Queensland - the largest port in Queensland for over 33 years ( does that mean I can now claim land rights? joking only!). Single Mum; 3 adult children. I need some MFP friends also. I have been trying to find MFP members in…

Thanks Mockchoc. Today I am already over my 1200 calories/ day limit but I feel still hungry so I might have some miso soup. may be I should increase it to say 1300 ? Thanks for mentioning the word fitbit. I just googled the word as I have not heard this terminology before. I will read more about it later on. No doubt,…

Thanks Rayman79. I am impressed and very envious to those who successfully lose enormous amount of weight. It is amazing. Almost unvbelievable. And here I am trying just about everything to get rid of these 10 kgs of excess weight and not attained real success. Well, it is like a yoyo. So far, I have enjoyed the logging in…

Many thanks lawrahmck. I shall try and buy that book. And yes I am finding it hard to adhere to 1200 calories. Always going over 1200 calories. Just a little. I was just following Jenny Craig's as they put me on that. I am getting discouraged as I thought I went down to 64.9 kgs and I thought I was being good and dedicated…

Thanks. I will. Have tried just about everything- from Ferguson, Isagenix, hypnotism, Jenny Craig and to think I only want to lose some 10 kgs. Lost some 8 kgs whilst with Jenny Craig but when I got off it, put 5 kgs back on. And there are a number who have lost 25 > kgs of weight. Embarrassing! Am I just hopeless? I even…

Thanks. If I remember it right you are same subscriber who posted about Michelle Bridges' 12WBT and I think I quite agree with what you said. Cheers

I was on it for a while. I was very energetic and I did like the Cleanse days as I felt so light. I remember only allowed about 4? pieces of Almonds for snack. I thought that was harsh. Lost some weight but product is expensive; so discontinued. I think MFP is a lot better. I am only new here but I enjoyed being able to…

Thanks for the info. Ended up buying total Gym shaper last Friday and now ready to use. I might try MFP and total Gym shaper first as Michelle Bridges next program starts in November and I could be overseas. I am more interested in the healthy, balanced recipes as at the moment I am just eating what I like but keeping it…

Thanks for your advice. I shall keep that in mind. I really want this to work! Wish me luck. Cheers

I live in Gladstone, Queensland. Joined MFP about 7 days ago only. Any other members from Gladstone?

So inspiring to read all your posts. I am 58 years old and I only joined MFP and started logging in what I eat about 7 days ago. I only wanted to lose say about 10 kgs and how come I do not seem to be able to do it? I weighed myself few hours ago and I weighed more than yesterday ??? Frustrating. Other MFP members seem to…

This is a very in thing topic. I could not help but smile when I read Coffee Addicts . Decided to buy staff Nespresso Machine recently as they were wasting money buying office delivered Coffee. Now all they have to do is buy the Nespresso Pods / Capsules and I make sure Skim Milk, and Equal/ Natvia are in stock. Luckily,…

What a good problem you have there. Congratulations. So if I maintain 1200 calories plus do some exercisesI will also continue to lose weight. Now, I will try and make sure I will not go over 1200 quota. Well done. Cheers

Well done! You should be proud of yourself. I wish I could do the same. Keep up the good work. Cheers

I only registered some 5 days ago and already I can see the difference. I joined Jenny Craig for about 2.5 months and have lost 8 kgs but I got sick of the same food and it got very boring after a while hence I quit before reaching my goal weight. During the 4 months I was not with Jenny Craig I put back about 5 kgs as I…

I am Philippine-born but have lived in Australia longer than Philippines. And actually a naturalized Australian for many decades now. Still Filipina in thoughts and in deed. Cheers
