You are all wonderful people! It has taken me a while, but I read every single post on this thread for motivation and inspiration, getting ridiculously excited when someone mentioned something I could relate to (the knees, abdominal pulse and being able to sleep flat on my back comfortably were my favourites, I used to…

If it's not too late to join you, I'm in!

Happy new year, I'd really like to have accountability buddies, too, so do please add me!

Hello all, I've spent the last four days reading all the posts from the last thread as well as this one, to try to get to know you all, though I realised after two days that I ought to have written some notes as I can't quite remember who's who anymore! You all seem really lovely and I love the way you support each other…

Hello all, I hope this finds you all well. Is it too late to join this group? I have roughly 130 pounds to lose. I started logging all my food and exercise on the 1st of August and have lost 3.1kg/ 6.8 pounds (I was a bit heavier than my original starting weight) so far. What I will do: Continue to log all food and…

Hello there, I have roughly 130 pounds to lose, don't want to waste any more of my life being unhealthy so I'm working my way to a healthy body, feel free to add me! :)

American Beauty (I always feel very motivated and full of joie de vivre when I watch this film) and Run, Fatboy, Run (great film, very funny, makes me want to run, makes me feel like I can do anything at all!).

I blend an avocado with frozen berries to make instant ice-cream, no honey there :)

Try psyllium husks, they're quite good.

Try apple cider vinegar (roughly one tablespoon mixed with a glass of water) two or three times a day. I have heard that helps.

Hello all, Count me in too, please! I feel very motivated most of the time, but I would love a good support group for those blah days. Let's do this!

Sure, why not!:happy:

Lol, only if it makes you sweat!:laugh:

Sounds good. I'm sure each and every one of us has something in mind. I'd love to be able to run for thirty minutes, as I am unable to run at all just now. :happy:

It can be anywhere you like, just break a sweat!

Ooooh, how exciting, lots of lovely people! I've set up the group and invited you all to it. Perhaps we could make note of how much we weigh at the following times: Day 1: Day 25: Day 50: Day 75: Day 100: I'll start! Day 1: 120kg (265 pounds) Day 25: Day 50: Day 75: Day 100:

Hello all, How lovely to see you all here, how are we finding the challenge so far? I managed to twist my knee on Saturday, so I'm re-starting my challenge tomorrow, hopefully I won't be hobbling by then. I am determined to do this for 100 continuous days (preferably by the end of July)! I am going to create a group for…

I'm in! managed 9 pounds in March, so 10 in April would be great :)

Hello, how are we all doing? :smile:

Hurrah!:happy: I started mine yesterday, so my last day would be Wednesday 9th July. If you start today (no time like the present) it would be the 10th for you (just in time for summer). Of course we can do this! It's just half an hour, and it shall be worth it. Happy exercising :happy:

Hello lovely people, Had to do some maths here as I'm using kilos, so here we go: SW: 123.9kg (273 pounds) CW: 119.1kg (262.5 pounds) GW: 115kg (253.5 pounds) Weigh in Dates: Start of Month (4/02 Tue): 119.1 (262.5pounds, sorry but didn't get a chance to weigh myself yesterday) 4/05 Sat: 4/12 Sat: 4/19 Sat: 4/26 Sat: End…

Absolutely not, you are NOT better off giving up! Just think of all the things you would have liked to do in your life that you were not able to do because of your size. Think of the next 30, 40, maybe even 50 years of your life, what do you want to do with them, what adventures are out there waiting for you, what…

Your story has filled my heart with joy! You are fantastic, well done :) I wish you all you wish yourself.

I have only just started my weight loss journey, and I can identify with a lot of what has been said here. I was terrified of what would happen if I lost weight, so even when I tried to lose weight, it would only last a short while and then I would put it all back on, with interest. I knew what I had to do, I just kept…

Hurrah, glad to hear this will be repeated each month :) Thank you, Raasy Adding another hour and fifteen minutes of dancing, taking me to fifteen and a half hours :)

Hello all, I'm very impressed with what I've seen so far on here, well done. I'm not quite there yet, but enjoying trying, and I started on the 9th: 9 : Dancing 2 hours 11. Dancing 2 hours 15.: Dancing 2 hours 16: Dancing 2 hours Walking 30 minutes Strength training 15 minutes 18: Dancing 2 hours 21: Dancing 1 hour Walking…

Just what I need right now, I'm in!

Just came across your post, bless your heart, what a fantastic attitude :)

Hello, I too have over 100 pounds to lose. Would be good to have a support group :)
