Feel free to add me! also two kids here :)

Thank you @ponybrown

That sounds really delicious! Australia has limited 0 calorie beverages that aren't water. Pretty much just diet coke/pepsi/sprite. Anyone in America want to send me some deliciousness? lol

I don't fast all day, but I'm generally not hungry until dinner time, so I have a small breakfast (a piece of fruit) a small lunch (a meal replacement bar/shake, or eggs on toast) then at dinner time I have plenty of calories for whatever I feel like.

My first goal is 10% of my body weight, then each 5% from there is a mini goal. For each goal reached I am buying a little charm, and when I reach my final goal will buy a nice silver bracelet for all my charms to go on

My blood pressure usually sits around 90/50. I get dizzy a lot, breathless while doing nothing, and lack energy. I've finally found a dr who is helping me look at various symptoms I have that are pointing at some possible issues. Having a colonoscopy at the end of the month and eating healthier/losing weight should…

I have chronic low blood pressure, hyper mobilised joints and my brother has Ehlers Danlos. Just now I am wondering why I haven't been tested... Hmm

Thanks for the advice. My first goal is losing 10% (so, 13.5kg) then 5% increments from there. I have already gone down to 129.1 from 135, so that's very motivating. But this is so different, my mind set has changed. I know I don't have to feel motivated every day, as this is just how my life is now.

Thank you everyone for your lovely support, and wow lorrpb you're a great inspiration :D

In Australia you can get a garden salad instead of fries at no difference in cost. Took the kids to McDonalds last weekend as they desperately wanted to try out the new playground. I got a grilled chicken and aoli wrap, a large diet coke and a garden salad, I felt satisfied at 561 calories, and that included putting…

Thank you! It's hard as I haven't been that wait since my early teens :# but I have a very obese partner and I had a dream that he had died of a heart attack at 40 and I was waddling along with a frame in a mumu rubbing my knees every few metres, and I was only 35, and my kids were so embarassed to be seen with me. I know…

hey! Feel free to add me. I'm 26, i live in australia, and I need to lose around 130 lbs :-0 I'm supportive of others regardless of goals though :)

you look great! and I can see you had some tattoos on your chest covered, your new ones look fantastic

I made myself a batch of dark chocolate and cashew fudge. One small square was around 150 calories, but I only ever needed one square as it was so rich and sweet. If I wanted one, I had a smaller portion at dinner or lunch so I had enough calories left over.

Snow peas Carrots 30g cheese grated Kids portioned packets of rice crackers (I could buy a big packet as portion myself but.. Meh) Skinny cow icecream Grapes Frozen berries (great on hot days) Coffee Different flavoured teas

I'm a 'new years resolutioner' and have been working out 5 days a week, I'm lucky my gym is so friendly! One of the pts set up a workout for me (and will re check as often as needed) and my commitment is unwavering. I'm LOVING it. So if you're going to my gym (only likely if you're east of Melbourne, aus, lol) get used to…

I thought I'd write in my experience. I'm an overweight (roughly 240 lbs) single mum of two girls under three years of age. I have found the number one best roll for me is a gym with a crèche. It gives me a break, me time to get in my own head without battling with 'MUM THIS DRESS IS BROKEN IT DOESN'T TWIRL' 'MAMA I NEEDA…
