My father died aged 51 of a heart attack, cholesterol related slightly before the days they knew enough about it, losing weight aged 52 was one of my prime drivers, high cholesterol is mainly hereditary. overweight people don't know that fat doesn't just appear on your skin, it gathers around your liver, gets into your…

one of my daughter's told me that her boyfriend had dumped her, what upset her her that he'd got it in before she did so she was trying to get back with him so that she could dump him! young love can really mess with our heads

some harsh stories there :o my 1st g/f was called Tracey, when she met the dog walking guy she didn't even tell me I was dumped, I found out through my sister, that hurt

and sorry, here's the last bit I'm posting this as both a success story but mostly to encourage anybody who is starting out, it's really worth doing, here's my mantra's 1.- set your reasons/ goals; work out why you want to do it & where you want to get to. 2.- dedicate; devote yourself, daily to your new lifestyle 3.-…

the bottom of my post missed some text, here it is; I took the brakes off a bit after that, I enjoyed my birthday & Christmas but kept logging and walking and at the end of my 1st year I weighed 78.8kg, 173.7lb. I wanted to keep my new lifestyle going so I joined a walking group, by now I was walking 25-30 miles a week,…

great stories folks :) I was overweight for about 30 years so got used to 'me'; I started out on MFP just under 2 years ago, Jan 4th 2013 & hit my goal in Spring this year, since then I use exercise to maintain & love feeling so fit & well. BUT I still haven't got to the new me, I regularly get caught looking in shop…

hi Martin I started at 215, I'm 5'10", a bit older than you but we're similar in all else, I ate average 1765 calories per day for just about a year & lost 52lb, you get holidays, birthdays, Xmas etc so I figured I was losing 1.25lb weekly on an evened out basis like you I entered lightly active, the only difference I can…

thank you folks, I have (self) diagnosed that I've torn or inflamed my left Rhomboid muscle, I found some very helpful stretch routines online & by last night was pretty comfortable. Macy, you're right, I'm sore again this morning, not as bad as yesterday & it's localised to the left side, so I'll do the same stretches,…

hi Chevy, I've been on MFP for nearly 2 years; year 1 was weight loss, dropped 47lbs; then I started lifting this past spring, I have a home dumbbell gym & do 5x5 or 6x5 3 days per week, I walk 3 days & rest 1. I don't keep exact measurements but I can report a WHOLE LOT of improved definition, all over, and 3 months into…

you have to develop a 'tough mind'; - commit to the goal of losing 'x' lbs - be honest; weigh and document everything that passes your lips - dedicate your life to this goal then evaluate daily your progress, set goals in the morning for intake and exercise and review each evening what you've done to achieve your goals.…
