Hi All, I am in the UK too. I have done MFP on and off for the past 3 and a half years. I lost 2 and a half stone the first time round and felt amazing. Then I started to get complacent and maybe everything that I ate or drank didn't get recorded. Anyway, little by little the weight went back on again. I am back on track…

Hi, welcome to MFP. The most important thing is to record EVERYTHING that you eat and drink, even down to the milk you put in your tea and coffee. Even on the days where you may go over your allowance, still record. If you miss something off that you've eaten you're only cheating yourself. Also, give the plan time, it is a…

What an achievement; you look great. Keep up the good work and good luck.

Well done on your progress so far.

Anchovies, peanut butter, pickled beetroot and minced lamb to name a few.

I usually take some fruit, typically an apple and a banana. Sometimes I have a few nuts and raisins.

Hi, you can add me. I only joined at the beginning of the month so am fairly new myself. I wish you luck with your weight-loss journey.

I work shifts too. I do two early shifts (7am to 2pm), 2 late shifts (12pm to 10pm) and two nights (6pm to 4am) and then four days off. I feel more hungry on my early shift as I get up at 5am and don't go to bed until about 11pm so it is a long day. I am most organised on late shift and usually take salad and chicken or…

Very true.

I've had thyroid problems since I was 16 when I had my first nodule removed. Since then I have had three more removed and been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. I had what was left of my thyroid removed in 2005 (apart from 2mm of tissue that was in too dangerous a place to remove). I had radioactive iodine treatment and go to…

You're obviously not keen on wine then :drinker:

I think a pound or so is probably normal. Someone I know told me a story about getting "caught short" whilst out in the country and having to go in a field behind a hedge. They were absolutely astounded when they saw the pile they left behind :laugh: I suppose we get a distorted view when we glance in the toilet. What a…

I've just started doing Slim in 6 which is a Beachbody product and they mention Shakeology on there. I have to admit that the shot they showed of it didn't make it look too inviting. If you are only replacing one meal a day with it then it does seem pretty expensive.

Hi Jade, I've sent you a request. I only joined on Thursday so I'm new too.

Well, seeing as you're offering I'll have a strong black one (seeing as I'm being good) :laugh: I have cut down a bit but can't give it up altogether.

Hi, I'm from Newcastle upon Tyne and started on MFP yesterday. Over the years I have probably been on about every diet going but in the end it just comes down to sensible eating and exercise does't it? I work shifts and am looking for friends to give me a push when I need it and a bit of support. Please feel free to add…
