Shape of You, and oddly enough Rotten to the Core (Disney)...

Sounds like what I have been needing for a while.... When I have a bad eating day, I tend not to log.... I need people to keep me honest with myself and help keep me motivated when I start to feel like sleeping in instead of just getting up and getting it done!!! Please add me!

Karra, originally from VA but now in Queensland Australia Need people who post regularly!!

Hi. Am new. Currently doing a C25k plan throughZombies, run! As I've had motivational issues as of late, I think I'll ixney on the mileage and goal set 3x a week as per the program. My neck of the woods stays hot nearly year round and the only decent time to exert lots of energy for me is early mornings (I AM NOT A Morning…

Feel free to add me if you like... I've lost count of gow many tries I'm on but I am still trying. Need as many accountability buddies as I can get.

Glad it's happening for you! Keep that close on the weeks you feel disappointed. It helps. Who needs surgery? You can do it!! Get in the pool if you can, and start a routine. I love swimming and my knees don't hurt after a swim... unlike when I jog! Feel free to add me if you like...

Feel free to add me. I struggle a bit but I keep on going!

A dietician told me to just "tweak a couple of habits", ie if you eat out 3x a week, try 2x. If you have drinks on the weekend, cut a couple short, if you order large take away meals, try a medium instead. And I've also noticed, the more active I am, the less I want to mindless eat... add me if ya like!

I LOVE SWIMMING!!! Please add me, always good to talk with other fishes!

It's not easy but it can be done. If your mind is there, your body will follow. Add me if you like.... still struggling a bit but am still moving forwards!

Same boat, I know it can be done as I did it! So much harder to get up and out the door as I get older. Still struggling and looking for friends to help!! Please add if ya like!

Sounds like I'm in the same boat as you guys! Lost 17 kilos (approx 38lbs) and then due to medication and stress gained 20kilos back. Have started over again. Have been walking 6 days a week for 4 weeks. My food intake has gotten smaller but I need people to help . Most of my current friends are gone or very quiet!! Please…

What part of VA are ya from? I'm from Hardy- in Frankin Co. Am now living in Queensland Australia and continue to struggle with what I call plane days where I could see myself just leaving on a jet plane- no kids, hubby or pets or people who hate America. I know it's all easier said than done but if you can find some…

I was a lot like you. If it's green, yuck. But I just started trying new dishes. The worst thing, you don't like it. You may find you can tolerate certain veggies (for me onions and tomatoes) while steering clear of the icky ones (broccoli and brussel sprouts). I found out this way that I like asparagus. I love bruschetta…

You can go to your profile and make your diary public, viewed by friends, password protected or whichever you choose. Mine is public to make me more accountable.

Ok, are you eating your "burned" calories back? You do not want a large deficit as it isn't healthy and believe it or not you will lose if you eat them all back. If you complete a day after midnight, it won't post it (learned the hard way there). I can't see your diary so I don't know your recent history. I do know that I…

Man, This thread has made me feel so normal today as I am slowing emptying a packet of wine gums... hahahahahhahahahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhahah

Yep. 40lbs for me too. Trying to add more friends for motivation and inspiration. Anyone can add me too!!!

I have a Shine. It tracks sleep, activity and is waterproof. You can wear it on your wrist, shoe, clothing or a pretty necklace. It can come off easily when it gets caught in your sleeve though. No charging as it runs on a battery and is easy to change. I linked it before to MFP but wasn't sure about it's calorie burned…

You can add me if you wanna! I'm starting over as well...

Howdy! 42. Have met my halfway mark and lost all motivation. Was running4-6 times a week, at least 5k. Walking my kids to and from school. Logging in truthfully every day. Now I'm eating unhealthily and falling into old patterns, drinking too much soda, alcohol and eating too many chips and deep fried foods. I'm a binge-r!…

A sexy voice works for me!! Arms are good too.

Start today. Log everything - tic tacs, wine, water - everything! Then tomorrow or tonight when you close the day out really look at everything. I keep my diary open. My first day I drank 4 bacardi and cokes and realized, wow- do I really want the world to see how much I eat/ drink? It made me think about whether I needed…

Hi I have been here since May this year and have found that eating the calories back still means I lose weight. I swam for two full summers and never lost anything (5-6 times a week at least an hour session) and then I realised that my caloric intake was way more than my burn. By keeping close tabs on my caloric intake and…

As for myself, I had every intention of running today, but woke up sick -- sore throat and head congestion. Ugh. Do you guys run while sick or wait till you're better? If I can run, I do otherwise I find it hard to get back in the swing of things as I'd much rather sleep in then get up!!!! I find if I let more than 2 days…

Hi! I started running this winter when the pool closed. I started with a 3k. Finished and felt good about it and then recently did the Bridge to Brisbane (10K) in under 67 minutes and felt on top of the world!!!!! Now with nothing to work towards am finding it hard to get out there and run. Still running (when I do it)…

Sorry I'm late. My weight 196lbs/ 89k.

Hi I too am just on the 40 end of life with children. I have been an MFP member since May this year and have happily lost 11 kilos (24 pounds) and am finally under the 200 lb mark as well. I wanna get down to at least 65 kilos so I can get on my son's powerwing and not break it! hahahaha I have swum each summer for the…

I'm an American in Australia... I miss gravy and biscuits!!!! Scones are too sweet and I just can't make breakfast gravy without sausage. The sausages here are very bland and very greasy. I have found an American food store but it's in Melbourne -I'm near Brissy (like Florida and New York) so I can get things like grits…

Born in Virginia and now in Woodford Queensland Australia.
