From door to door it takes me 2 hours of which 70 mins is walking :noway: 45 min walk to local station, 50 min sit on train and 25 min walk through central London. Then I have to do the same on the way back. Blimey just realised 4 hours of commuting a day! I must be mad lol I do sometimes drive to the station or get the…

There was a mixture of things but the last straw was when an old work mate asked when I was due whilst rubbing my belly!! Mortifying :cry:

Bump - I will try and upload some funnies later :happy:

I have missed a couple of days already as i've only just seen this thread but I am in :smile: I have just bought a pedometer as well. Happy days! Something to aim for :drinker:

Bump! I'm off to buy some wonton wrappers. I'll be back....... :smile:

Hey! :) I too have just got back from a week away and although I do not usually eat takeaways etc I found that i was eating this most nights. I also drank more alcohol than I usually do :drinker: I weighed myself yesterday and I have put on 4 pounds. I'm rather pleased with this as I don't think it's too bad. I am going…

Ooooohhh thanks :flowerforyou: It makes a change from us being hated all the time :laugh: You should definately come to the UK. It's a fabulous country :smile:

So happy i'm not alone :) I too hate family gatherings as my family love their food and it's all they talk about etc and it's all they do! I feel like it holds me back so much and stresses me out so hopefully we can get better in the future :smile:

bump :)

I'm so so happy for her. She's amazing! Another gold for the Team GB tally :happy: Also i'd kill to have a body like hers. That is my aim.....

Thanks to everyone for organising :flowerforyou: COME ON TEAM # 7 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We can smash this :tongue:

If you don't eat all your carrots you won't be able to see in the dark!!!

Welcome to MFP! I love this site and hope you will do too. I wish you luck on your journey :smile: I am on here all the time so if you want to add me as a friend please do so :drinker:

Feel free to add me :) I post a lot so we can encourage and motivate each other :drinker:

Good luck tubway :flowerforyou: Vegas will be awesome!! Great idea taking the exersize DVD with you. I may have to nick your idea and do the same when i go away on holiday in October. I will then feel less guilty having those beers and champagne in the hot tub :drinker:

Mmmmmmm beer :drinker: My biggest problem is beer!! Do you like any other drinks? Such as spirits? You can use a slim line tonic or low cal mixer. I think if you can still lose weight and still have a couple of drinks each week then there's nowt wrong with that :happy: I've just signed up for a 30 day no alcohol challenge…

Oooh this is quite exciting. I'm determined to stick with it as i know i will save money and will make me feel so much better. However it is soooooooo typical that the sun has finally come out and with that comes the temptation for beer and bbqs!! Roll on the winter LOL

I was talking about this with my friend the other day funnily enough. Over the last year I have really cut down on my drinking as i used to drink a hell of a lot!! But lately my alcohol consumption is starting to creep up again and with that i feel bloated and horrible and i'm so scared gaining weight when i still need to…

Hello and welcome to MFP :) I'm well into my journey now but i remember how daunting and hard it was in the beginning. Please feel free to add me as a friend and we can motivate and support each other :smile:

"God is great, beer is good and people are crazy" - Billy Currington I lurve beer!! Hmmmmm i fancy one now :drinker:

You are doing so well :flowerforyou: It's really embarassing when things like that happen but you have the correct attitude in dusting yourself down and carrying on with your great weight loss. I remember a couple of years back i saw someone i hadn't seen in ages and in my defence lol i was wearing a really baggy long coat…

Hiya i'm from Essex in England and our staple would have to be a kebab after a night out of the beer :drinker:

Welcome to MFP :smile: Hopefully you will really like the site. I love it! I have found it really helpful, motivating and rewarding. Good luck on your journey :flowerforyou:

I just completed the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge this Saturday just gone :drinker: Wow! What an amazing and rewarding experience but OMG so so hard. Probably the hardest thing i have ever undertaken. it was definately a mental challenge as well as a physical one. Good luck to everyone taking on the challenge, Yorkshire…

Well done :drinker: That's amazing. I have given up for 5 months 1 week! Best thing i have ever done. keep up the good work :)

Well done, that's really brave of you. I changed my diary a few months back so my friends can view it and i feel it has really helped me. I have vowed to log absolutely everything so it makes me stop and think before i eat something naughty as i know others will be able to see it. My biggest downfall is alcohol and a…

Hiya I'm 34 and from Essex. I have lost quite a bit and only have a little bit left to lose. I'm worried that i'm going to find it hard maintaining my weight loss once i'm at my goal so any friends that can keep me motivated would be great. Please add me if you like :smile:

Well done you!! :) I am doing the Yorkshire three peak challenge this weekend and although it's not as demanding as the national three peaks, i'm terrified lol. Apparantly it's going to take me about 12 hours of hiking to complete :noway: I'm going to start training to do the national one next year too. Well good luck with…

I have an underactive thyroid too and i'm on 200mg Thyroxine a day. I was only diagnosed with it years ago by accident when i had a blood test for something else. Suddenly it made sense why i had gained so much weight. I started the tablets and thought all my excess weight would then disappear over night! That was so not…
