5'3 and down to 126lb from 155lb in August 2013. Been maintaining for about 6 weeks and loving feeling fit again. Feel free to add me.

I'm 42 years old and started on MFP in August 2013 at the request of my trainer (so he could keep an eye on me and give me a kick in the right direction when needed). I've lost 29lb in 7 months and am now maintaining and eating more than I ever used to. Initially I did cut calories and hit the gym - hard! I find logging…

My Personal Training sessions, they made an unbelievable difference.

I've been with my other half for almost 22 years and neither of us wanted kids. There are still certain pockets of family ask when we'll be hearing the patter of tiny feet. I love kids, have nieces, nephews and godchildren, just don't want my own. I've even been told my relationship is pointless if we don' plan to…

Yup - but obviously I'll change my mind (ask anyone they've told me often enough since I was 19 years old).:huh:

Did my favourite walk in The Lake District (UK) at Easter. The first part normally takes about 1h40mins with at least two stops because it's so steep and I am so out of breath, I'm also usually shattered half way round the walk back. This year I did the first part in 38 mins with no stops at all and completed the rest of…

I'm exactly the same, it's boring but it takes time, patience and consistency.

Home made Thai curry, I can eat it til I'm ready to vomit.

I'm 5'3 and female and eat way more than that. Yours seems really low, but I'm no expert. I eat at that sort of level on rest days. I normally exercise 5 times per week and my calorie intake is between 1800 and 2100 per day although I'm no longer trying to lose weight. You can add me and check out my diary if you want.…

I get the same thing all the time. Ignore it. As long as you're healthy and happy and you know you're not overdoing it then it's nobody else's business. Well done.

Yup :happy:

I'm 43 and have had anything from 26 - 36. I'll take it.

Thor is prettier but Iron Man has that certain indefinable something. They're both acceptable til Wolverine turns up. :love:

My favourite band ever is THUNDER. From the 90s but with a definite classic rock sound. Also love Whitesnake, Paul Rogers, KISS, AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Deep Purple etc etc Favourite track - Dirty Love - Thunder

Shoes or Annie Haak jewellery

Me too - wouldn't have a clue.

Thanks, I'm only 6 months in so maintaining and improving is my goal now. I was a UK 10/12 and down now to about an 8. For the first time in my life I can look at my arms and legs and see them as normal size. Butt and legs are the last thing to go on me.

Photo on the left 148lb (7lb less than my heaviest) Photo on the right 134lb (8lb more than my current)

My body fat is around 20% at the moment, down from 32% 6 months ago. I'm just following the program from my PT 5 days a week, heavy dumbells, compound exercises and fast cardio intervals for 60minutes (the exercises and intervals change regularly to stop me getting bored and stop my body getting used to it - plus I think…

I'm 5'3 too, gone from 155lb to 126. Now trying to maintain as I don't want to get too small. Hopefully the pics will work. Not quite at my heaviest in the first photo and not quite at my smallest in the 2nd but you can see the difference. I totally love the definition in my abs and my back. It's been worth every drop of…

I love it, it's definitely an escape. It's my time, just me and my music (or trainer). Nobody else exists for that hour or so.

Yup narrowest point. I'm 5'3, 126lb and 24.5inch waist.

Hello from sunny South Shields this morning (near Newcastle for those who don't know) Feel free to add.

I had the option of male or female and went with male because I've always worked better under male trainers in classes etc. It's down to personal choice. How did it go?

I've been working with a trainer for 6 months and he is awesome. I was typical in that I only ever stayed within my comfort zone in the gym. If anyone had said I'd be able to run as fast as I do now and lift the weights I'm lifting I'd have laughed in their faces. I wish I'd done this years ago. Just make sure you commit…

Totally this, there's a fine line and anyone who doesn't understand what you're doing or why you're doing it will choose obsessed.

I'd like to be taller, I'm pretty happy with everything else, Height is about the only thing I can't influence with diet and exercise. :ohwell:

Sprinkled with cajun spice and baked or wrapped in prosciutto and baked. Both delicious.

Squats and press ups. Love them both.
