Libra to see weight loss trends

I've recently started doing parkrun every Saturday. It's a walk, run or jog 5k every week. I've managed to go from 46 min to 39 min in about a month. No pressure to run/walk, you can do it at your own pace!

I am a teacher and my first 2 years I felt like I was ill all the time too. After my first 18 months I was hardly ever off. I was off 4 times in 18 months and then I've been off twice in the 3 years since.

So true

Thanks, losing weight has gave me something I can do on my own, without feeling like I 'need' someone to do it with :-)

Ha ha thanks! I can't eat any less as it leaves me hungry!

I'm 5ft9 21 yrs old SW - 190 pounds CW - 140 pounds GW- 135 pounds [img]http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad237/Jos1993/Mobile Uploads/20140704_122037-1_zpse4ceca20.jpg[/img] [img]http://i939.photobucket.com/albums/ad237/Jos1993/Mobile Uploads/20140704_122022_zps84449df6.jpg[/img] I still want to lose the podge around my…

Thank you :-)

Thank you :-) What's your height?? I used something online but can't remember the link :-( it was on here I found it though. The only reason I eat more when I exercise is cos I found if I didn't I would be really hungry the next day!

Basically I stuck to a calorie deficit, I weighed myself every morning when I remembered which spurred me each day and every time It was the lowest I would record that in mfp I signed up for a few gym classes a week and made them part of my daily routine, and another thing that helped was motivation, I got my motivation…

P.s. Sorry for messy room!

I have lost about 45lbs.. Don't know if that's classed as a lot?? 1. My weight loss was started after a break up so at the time was very emotional and unhappy... I now feel a lot more relaxed and chilled out, is this also down to getting over the break up? Probably.. But I never would have lost weight if I had never been…

I started at about 188lbs and I am now 148lbs. I started mid jan this year so very happy with my progress. I would ideally like to get down to 140lbs. I'm 5ft8.5 and still have some flabby areas in particular my stomach ! I did stay very committed and avoided foods that would make me binge. It's only recently I have…

Me and my boyfriend of 4 years broke up in January, I admit I cried everyday for 2 weeks, I thought obsessively about it and felt like I couldn't cope on my own. I won't lie, I still think about him a lot as he was a very big part of my life but whereas it was upsetting thoughts it is now starting to be thoughts about how…

Me and my ex broke up in january after i had put on approx 2 and a half stone in the 4 years we had been together. It was a really hard break up which i still think about alot to this day. At the time i was very self conscious about my weight/looks and wasnt happy with my body but did not make any attempt to fix it until…

So a few more weeks on and I've continued to do well and have lost an amazing 31lbs. So pleased with myself and only another 10 pounds or so more and I will be back to the weight I was 4 years before. I have upped the gym sessions from 1 class on a mon wed and fri. To 2 classes mon, wed and fri and 1 on a sun morn, not…

Great post. I love the bit about trying new things x

Sorry about your break up. I am also going through a break up but unlike you we weren't engaged/living together. It ended pretty badly with him throwing some nasty words out but now I look at his life and look at mine and realise he isn't living the life he wanted or earning the money he wants and I am so so lucky with…

Would love a like button!! Bump

Another update. So another 0.9kg lost, been keeping up with the gym classes and walking. Had a bad day yesterday where everything caught up with me again and had a bit of an emotional night! Woke up this morning and decided to pick me up to do a gym class, came home to get ready for work and noticed I was swamped in my…

I'm 5tt8/9 and have another 20lbs to lose too :-)

I put my name down to do classes on a mon, wed and fri, I enjoy the classes more than actually going into the gym, see if there are any classes you fancy? A few weeks ago when I didn't fancy going to the gym I set a day to go swimming instead :-)

Ok so had a good day yesterday, did a 4 mile walk with the dog, rode the horse then did a gym class so was on quite a high last night. Woke up this morn feeling a bit run down, lazy and frustrated, have another gym class tonight so hopefully that will pump me up a bit! @amestris funny how you say about a breakup playlist…

Feeling like i have achieved something on my own!

Hi I am 5'8/9 and started at 187 pounds. I am currently at 164 pounds. I can still see a lot of body fat.my next goal is 145 pounds. I would like to reach lower but my mum doesn't think I will due to my height and body shape but you never know!!! I am 7 weeks in and would like to reach my target by my 21st which is the end…

Thanks everyone, it's hard but I am getting there. I never would of been able to get this far without this push and I am glad it is here even though I have lost other things in the process. Sometimes you do have to stop thinking of others and put yourself and your health first! Feel free to add me :-)

Yesterday I did a small run in the morn and a great gym class in the evening, I managed to do so much more of the class then I usually can do so it's good to know my fitness is improving, and then this evening I have walked my dog and rode my horse :-) I have kept to my eating plan aswel, not sure where all this motivation…
