:D OK I'm in - after doing really well with mfp I am now stuck and have been for about 6 months, just yo-yoing up and down a couple of pounds at a time. I'm now 8 pounds higher than I was and I still had 10 pounds to go then. So I need some motivation please - will welcome new friends to help me achieve 14 pounds before…

Being a bit of a technophobe - how do I join this :o

Hi - is this age restricted? I'd like to join and have the last stubborn 12 pounds to go - and been totally stuck for the last 8 months, just yo-yoing up and down a couple of pounds at a time, regardless of how many times I exercise. I need that extra shove to get me going.

Doing well.......

A great day today - 8.5 miles

Great day today - another 6 miles!

Ticker not updating - another 5 miles over the last 2 days making a total of 11 to date.

Day two for me

I'm in - here's the start for me

Oh dear, looks like I was one of the worse - 5lbs gain for me over Xmas and New Year. Not stressing though, I know I will soon have that under control and then on my way to reach my goal weight this year.

I love my fitbit one. I've had this since August and it has really motivated me to get up and move. I also work in an office but so that I can reach my goals I now make a point of getting up and walking up and down the three floors several timnes a day. I agree with Karen2628 and Jonnythan that the flights might not match…

Hi I seriously recommend investing in a Fitbit - it does all the hard work for you. You just clip it on and it automatically counts your steps, how active you are and depending on which model, flights of stairs climbed and quality of aleep. I have had a 'fitbit one' since August and think it's great. It cetainly has…

Thank you for sharing your experience with us - just makes us stop and take stock of life. Best wishes

Wow you summed me up in one! So many times I dropped off at stage 2 and ended up being heavier than before. This time I've stuck with it and can happily say I'm in stage 3. Eating healthy IS now a habit and I love going to various exercise classes and look forward to the next. Thumbs up and to others reading this - keep…

I mean friend doh!

Hiya - Another one from England here - the Garden of England, Kent - happy to be your griend if you wish :smile:

Whoa can't believe it's that soon!! Well, seeing as my weightloss is at crawling pace I would be really pleased if I could lose 10 pounds by then - however, I still have 2 exttra pounds to lose from what went on after my summer holidays :grumble:

The only gadget I have used is the fitbit one and it suits me fine. It's small and discreet and helps to keep me moving as I like to see that I reach the goals I have set for myself. I also use it in conjunction with mfp and calorific adjustments are given dependent on how active you are - there's not need to log…

Sounds just what I need - having just had a holiday I'm now struggling to get back on track. Mfp for me please unless you have a fitbit then we could do both. Please can I join?

Hi I have a fitbit One and think it is great. it has given me that added push to achieve the targets I set, so it owrks for me. It stops the need to calculating on mfp the amount of calories used whilst exercising as when you sync you are automatically given a calorie adjustment. You should only be using this as a guide…

Any help please/

O you mustn't undo all the good you have achieved - look how much you have already lost - stick with it, look at some old 'fatty' photos , maybe increase some exercise or change what you do to stop the boredom settling in. Do it for yourself - you are worth it :bigsmile:

Thanks everyone Your thoughts are appreciated and has helped in making my decision - it will be the Flex :happy:

Don't take too much stock by this - it hasn't worked for me. It is just a guide and gives you hope.

I've tried it and still do it. The wii game obviously is not as good as the real thing but depending on how much you wish to throw yourself into it you will still burn some calories. Space is not too much of a problem as my room is small with low light fittings but I dance around them. I like the fact that you are given…
