just checking in...a reasonable day for me...hope everyone is ok

hectic day for me today...not much exercise but could have been a lot worse on the calorie front with lunch and dinner out. tape measure time tomorrow...yikes :/

I'm in North Yorkshire.....would really value encouraging and supportive friends on here and am happy to do the same so anyone is welcome to add me if you think we could help each other along this journey. I am determined to keep making positive lifestyle changes and have a lot of weight to lose and fitness to gain.

Overall a good weekend for me. Have stayed within my calorie goals and had to stop myself from exercising today ...as it was my rest day....really felt like doing some more exercise (which is a new feeling for me!). Feeling positive that I can stay within my calorie limit and complete a good exercise programme this week.…

so now is the time to get back on it! One thing I've learned on MFP is that we don't get anywhere by giving up and even though my progress isn't anything outstanding it is progress and I feel much fitter and more toned already.....hope this week is better for you. Kat

You are right, I know...I'm working on the nutrition....one step at a time for me :)

I've eaten absolute rubbish today but so far have stayed within my calorie limit and enjoyed doing some exercise.

I'm upping my game today....adding more cardio work and weights to my routine. The thing I find hardest is sticking to my calories but I'm gradually identifying my weak points (the times when I give in to temptation) and having strategies to deal with this? Do you guys know your weak spots and what do you do to deal with…

A bit disappointed that I didn't do more exercise today but feeling very tired....stayed under calorie goal but want to improve nutrition by eating healthier foods (then maybe I won't be so tired!!)

This challenge is just what I need. I struggled to keep my food intake under my calorie goal today and only did a short walk so I need to up my game. Good luck everyone. Kat

where do we check in each day?

loud and clear just what I need right now Thanks Kasey :)

HI....I've had some knee pain..I looked up the anatomy of the knee online...there was only one ligament in the area of the knee that was bothering me...then I looked up on you tube for advice about injuries to that ligament they described the exact pain I was getting. I then looked up advice for exercises to do to…

thanks for the link...I'll check it out :)

Good luck Mike....I'll send you a FR from Yorkshire :)

loving your attitude....I've no doubt you'll reach your goals and inspire many around here :)

I'm so glad you posted this.....I lost 9lb before I joined MFP and 2lb when I first joined here but since then zilch...I have a lot of weight to lose and I would feel so much more encouraged if the scales just showed something in the right direction. I also can't understand how I lost weight before I joined here...I wasn't…

yes that answers my question perfectly ...thank you :)

I don't even know what one is :/

urgghhh no it's not...i'm completely messing things up around here aren't I?? !!

sorry i pressed the wrong button! my reply to this is above! Kat

yes ...I must start keeping notes...we'll have to compare progress as we go along :) you know it rains a lot here don't you!!

yes I have just over 10stone to lose...I log in every day and do my best to encourage people on my friend list. If you are happy to do the same then please add me :)

There are some great people here and I've had lots of helpful and supportive feedback...I suppose things vary from person to person. I'm trying to gather a small but supportive network of people so that I can do my best to support others where I can.

Hello....sounds like you have made a good start...fingers xd for you for Halloween :) Feel free to add me as a friend...I log in most days and do my best to comment frequently on my friends' progress.

Hi I use a stationary bike...sort of keep records...doing about 30mins at a time now...try and vary time v resistance...need to work out a little programme to make sure I push myself enough...what sort of programme do you have?

I haven't seen any of these pics but can understand your thinking. Good for anyone who doesn't have much weight to lose, good for anyone who loses any weight (who knows they might be more hung up about carrying a few extra pounds than I am about being twice the size I should be!), good for us for making a start and when we…

I'm in ...i need all the incentives I can get :)

thanks for posting this...it's interesting stuff...I definitely need to up my water intake :)

I'd defo be up for this but I'm weighing in weely for another challenge....good luck with it everyone :)
