Hello everyone, Joined MFP on 2nd Jan this year and was thrilled with first 3 weeks loss of 16lb (okay I appreciate likely to be mostly water and I am a big girl, but it was motivating!).... then I found this threat and notified Rosy re joining the challenge and that week I lost absolutely nothing (but did remain the…

Hi Caroline Sorry, I went to reply to this as soon as you posted but had a call to say my daughter taken to A&E so had to abandon, she is fine so here goes: Tell yourself you are working towards being the best health you can be so when you come off the tablets/rebalance your body re this you will be healthier anyway Give…

Hello all, greetings from England! I joined MFP on 2nd Jan and was hoping for any loss during January, I was desperate to see some shift after feeling so lousy in December. I decided to go cold turkey and cut out all sweets, crisps, biscuits, cakes etc etc and to my suprise I lost 16lbs during January! I was so pleased!…

Hello everyone I joined 4 weeks ago but have only just come across this thread;; I am 53 and felt it just before joining this website but now feeling a little younger each day as I move and enjoy the support of the MFP community.

Me too! It is possible it is emotional eating? When we have moe time something kicks in after being busy all day? I have found using this site at night, MFP, it helped me particularly in the first couple of weeks. Instead of feeding my mouth I hit the keys! And always had a glass of water next to me! Good luck!

Me too! UK that is...!

Enjoy the site, everyone is really supportive!

Hi Welcome! It is fine to just invite friends whenever someone strikes a cord, the people here are very friendly and supportive so the more you reach out the more you get out of it. It is fun and it is addictive, but in the most positive of senses! Good luck! Feel free to add me as friend if you would like to!

See 'rapidly loosing heart' topic on this message board....there is one long entry that goes over what happens if you don't eat enough calories, which may be the case if you are doing so much exercise and not loosing. Just a thought. Good luck!

Feel free to add me as a friend if you would like too, lots to loose too! Good luck!

Stacey, Welcome! You will loose weight if you follow the guidance on this website. I suggest you dive in and use the tools tab and the tools there to get your guidance re calories per day for you etc etc. Then log everything re the food tab. Walking is a good easy exercise. Going up and down stairs and increasing the…

Hi If I was you I would see how your weight loss goes for the first month having the calories this site has selected for you based on your moderate/intensive (Tools on your homepage then BMR in case you haven't done it here), and then maybe change your lifestyle down a knotch and see what difference it makes to the daily…

Welcome! You will get lots of support!

See 'rapidly loosing heart' post, almost the same was asked and someone put in that stream a really interesting article on what happens to the body if you under eat. It may help explain things. Good luck!

You are right, something just needs to go 'click' but I found that just before I finally went 'click' (after 30+ years of overweight to some degree), that I needed to make time for myself to catch up with myself and think. Sounds easy but it is very difficult to find time without someone else being around or easily…

Suddenly seeing me in the mirror and realising it was me and not an old, fat woman I didn't know! After many years of SAYINGI 'wanted to be thinner' (I had been a curvaeous 16-18 most of my life), I now realise I didn't want to really ; because in part I thought I was okay (health and looks). That worked until I was about…

Extremely interesting post above. I hope that provides lots to encourage you to stick at it (along with all the other posts). Well done for taking the first steps, remember, as so many people have said on this site "if you always do what you have always done..... you will always get what you have always got". You have…

Great re the fruit you are eating.....but.....This seems VERY little food. When you log your food daily, how many calories does it total for the day? I suspect you are well under calories? I have seen lots of posts on this website re how our bodies go into starvation mode if we don't eat the recommend amount of calories a…
