  • Absolutely. I feel its important to have a record of both the good and the bad. This way if at the next weighin there hasnt been a loss it gives you some indication of why. "The most important person to be true to is yourself"

  • I have just completed my first weighin since starting on mfp and am stoked to find a loss of 1.7kg. I was hoping for at least 1 as I am feeling really good and have been very diligent despite a blowout on Saturday. I realise that it wont be this much each week but that is certainly encouragement. Gives me the strength to…

  • I would like to be in on this. Dont go to the gym, but use my Wii fit and cross trainer. I am hoping to do 5 each week and have done this week (my first one ). However work and life gets back to normal tomorrow. I think it would be a good idea to record on here when we do it.

  • I dont have 100lbs to lose (actually since I'm in Australia I have to think in kilos) but I am happy to chat and offer encouragement any time. Today is my first day of mfp although I have done other programs before. I think definitely work in small steps, forget the total amount for now and celebrate each and every loss.…

  • Yep thanks for that, I guess I just have to get into the swing of it. I was thinking of something along the lines of the little calorie booklet you sometimes used to see at supermarket checkouts!! However I am sure it will be quite easy and largely common sense. Probably will just create a little excel table for myself for…

  • Hi, I also have just joined the group and am hoping that as this is the beginning of a new year it can also be the beginning of change for me. I have started this type of thing many times before and had great results, only to gradually slip back into old habits and the weight goes back on. I had a heart stent put in last…
