WOW!!!! You look amazing! Well done x

YES!!! I was an English size 16 last year and nearly 40lbs lighter I'm a 10/12. Go for it, feels good xxxxx

I log everything.... if I eat it I log it. As for exercise, I log everything I do too and I don't eat it back, I count it as a deficit benefit; I only eat it back when I'm maintaining because then I don't need the deficit. In the end though, its a matter of personal choice and responsibility - what works for you xx

I get this a lot too... I have some really supportive friends who I know are pleased for me , but I also have friends /colleagues who are still saying this even though I've been maintaining well and haven't lost for 3 months now. I've even had, 'your face is falling and you'll start to look old' ..-I'm my own worst…

NOOOOOOO. Dont cut it short - your hair is lovely. I had butt length hair,on advise from a hairdresser, had it layered, then layered shorter until it was all gone - I so regretted it. My hair grows really fast but I've never managed butt length again - think very hard before you let anyone cut more than a trim xxxx

Probably would confuse a lot of people with my diary, I stated on VLCD drinking shakes for a month followed by sustaining low calories for 2 months and then followed the 5:2 regime until I got to my maintenance weight - this taking 5 months, losing 43 lbs. I am happy with this, I took responsibility for how I ate and used…

What exactly does Insanity involve- might be a bit too intense for me but I cold modify

Yorkshire

Brilliant!!!! WELL DONE YOU!! xx

Didn't do Herbalife but did Cambridge diet and lost 14 lbs in the first month of my diet- worked for me, didn't feel hungry and left me motivated to carry on dieting using restricted calories. 44 lbs lighter now I've been maintaining for nearly 3 months eating sensibly and exercising to stay within my chosen weight range…

BRILLIANT!!!! Looking good xx

I weigh every day, first thing in the morning and log it x

Love this site too- helped me succeed when others didn't xx

Every day, first thing. I like to know the fluctuations and relate them to what I've eaten-sodium etc. No nasty surprises then x And I log too.. shows the patterns x

At goal now so maintaining where I am would be great, another 5 or 6 lb loss would be better xx

Is there? I didnt know x Barnsley, South Yorks

Brilliant!!!!! You look amazing!! Dont even look like same guy x

Count me in too. At goal now but another 7lbs off would be great at Christmas. Make me just under 10 stone- whetheyyyyyy!!! I do 5:2 as well, brill method of losing weight ! x

Just log everything you eat accurately, and you'll find you want to keep those numbers right so much that it keeps you on the wagon, stick in there, you dont have to much to lose, could be just about there by Christmas ans the party season xx

Brilliant story, WELL DONE!! You look amazing x

Whilst I was losing weight I tried never to eat back exercise calories - I used them to increase my deficit and lose weight more quickly. If I had a special occasion , I 'stored' these calories so I could eat more and not feel guilty. This worked for me; the calorie balance just doesn't go over a day, its for the long…

I agree to find something you enjoy and worth making the effort to do. I love swimming and do that, I like treadmill and gym so I do that too- it all gets easier as you lose the weight. I hate elliptical and cycling, so though I do both occasionally ( to see if I've changed my mind), I tend to avoid them altogether. If I…

I have a girl and yes she liked pink, then purple/black, then a soft beigey colour and now at 20 she likes shades of pink and mauve - in between we've given in to fleeting preferences of other colours. Thing is they know what they like/want, they're little people with their own ideas and you love them whatever x

Dump him, he's free loading from his parents and if anything happens to them then he would probs free load off you. get a man who'll love and respect you, he just isn't worth the heartbreak xx

I got after moving heavy furniture upstairs - too much pressure on my foot from pulling upwards. I can sympathise, the pain is awful especially when walking. Dont know if this help- I couldnt get a doctors appt quickly so I decided to try and support the area where it hurt so I used athletic support tape binding around the…
