Hello Lee Would love to be friends, i can offer lots of support and am very happy to receive it. I log in every day more than once.

Hello David Would love to become friends, to support and be supported. How is North Wales, just got back from Borth Cynthia

Hello I love the fact that you are asking God to help with your weightloss. I had to submit my life fully to God, 3 years ago when I was just about to have a liver transplant. Its amazing and miracles really can happen. I would love o be a supportive friend to you. God Bless Cynthia

Hello, My name is Cynthia and I have been doing this for four months now. Please feel free to friend me, I will be willing to support you as much as possible. I log on very day so I am always around. It is important what you say about bringing in exercise because it helps a lot. But find your own level of exercise, you can…

Hi I think that the hot weather has put paid to a lot of things these last few weeks. I went to do a 60 min walk last Sunday and after about 30 mins I was exhausted and really struggled to get back home. that is why I stick to aqua exercise. But it is important to stick to your resolve, use your calories wisely and…

Hi I understand how you feel about the scales not moving, this is made worse when a GP's main concern is your BMI. But surely, size must stand for something. Don't be disheartened because the scales will start to move again. You have done really well and I admire you for that Keep going Cynthia

Just keep going, you are so close to reaching your goal. Just an idea, have you tried eating some different foods and at different times, just to shake up your metabolism. Those last few lbs are often the hardest to lose, but please do not give up, no way do you want too put that weight back on. Keep thinking about how you…

I had a Liver Transplant in March 2010. This was due to suffering from PBC for 25 years. Nothing to do with alcohol. I have put on 5 st. since then with one medication or another, I was very unfit and weak. I have started started losing weight and exercising every day, and am feeling much better for it. I was beginning to…

Thanks for the recipe, will try this tomorrow.

.Hello, firstly thanks for your advice re exercise and water. This week I intend to go to the swimming pool for 3 x 1hr sessions of aquarobics, I think I have also found a 4th session in my area. This seems to suit me much better and it gives you a good workout. I normally get there 30 mins early so I can swim for half an…

My Degree was a BA Hons in :- major Social sciences Minor Women's Studies Very enjoyable

Hello I would love your recipe for no pastry quiche if possible, it sounds right up my street. By the way you have got some great ideas, keep them coming Thanks Cynthia

Oh, I almost forgot, Aldi sell a low fat grated cheese, great for making toasties with ham, tomato etc.

I am eating a lot of chicken in various guises. Some of the cook in sauces are really not too high, makes a lovely meal with rice or potatoes and some veg. Different tastes works well for me.

Hello Good look with the new diet. I heard about this on the TV but I do not know anyone who has done it. PLease keep us informed as to how it is going. Do you actually eat at all on the two days off? I am looking forward to swimming today and aqua robics so I stand to be cooler for a short while. Keep at it Cynthia

May I just say that I was in a similar situation to you, except that I had a liver transplant and put on vast amounts of weight. I wanted to have surgery but was refused on health grounds. MFP has been the best thing that has happened , I log my food and I exercise. I have made lots of friends all in the same boat, and I…

Great attitude, I love it

Hello Jenlybean, I am pleased to welcome you to the group, and I hope that we can be supportive to you. In response to your message, I generaaly eat normal foods. I certainly do not go out and buy diet foods. I am very lucky in the way that my Husband does a lot of my cooking for me, but I insist on cooking Sunday lunch. I…

Thanks for your help LYnne, I hope that you have had a good day Cynthia

Bible Study John 1 : 19 - 34 04/07/13 Observations:- 1 My first observation is that John denies being the Messiah. The jewish leaders and priests questioned whether Jonn was the Elijah, or a prophet. John denied this but said that He was making a way for the Lord. 2 Jonn tha Baptist explained to the Pharisees that he…

Hello Stacey Welcome to the club, you have come to the right place if you need support. Keep logging in and try doing some exercise, start small and aim big. Feel free to make me a friend if you like Cynthia

Hello, Prayers sent up from England, for a fast healing, Thank you God.

Hi Lynne I like, and am willing and able

My Testimony Twenty years ago I was diagnosed with an incurrable LIver disease, the only possible treatment would be to have a transplant. I was devastated, why me was a regular cry. We belong to a lively Selby and I regularly received healing prayer, and I used to regularly pray for others to be healed. I have witnessed…

Hello Lynne I was looking around the mfp community bit when I came across your group. I like to live my life as God would want me to, and that also includes losing weight to be healthy as God would want me to be. God gives us choices and it is my choice now to become healthy and fit. God is always there to help if you ask,…

Hello Lynne From this passage I believe that God was the creator of all. God sent his Son to live amongst us and from God comes Grace, Truth and Mercy. I am always amazed that poeple did not know who Jesus was, but many did not want to know. Anything that happens comes from God, not from us. We are God's creation. This…

Hello I have been using MFP for 5 days now and enjoying it. I have a similar amount of weight to lose so I would like to be a supportive friend to you Cynthia
