I always take a big salad to uni with me, with different leaves cucumber, tomato and sweetcorn, throw in either some wholewheat couscous or a tin of tuna with some light salad cream, fills me through to my evening meal and is delicious. If i want a little snack i take whitworths fruit and nut shots which are delicious!

hey :) I am 24, 5ft 8 also but have a lot more than 65lbs to lose but would happy to be friends. I also am back on the wagon for good. I previously lost about 65-70lbs but made myself ill and put it all back on again so back to try again. Feel free to send a request if you would like to

5500 calories a day?

Im 22 from the uk. My starting weight was 270 lbs and goal weight of 154lb. lost 42lb so far just using MFP. Feel free to add me :)

I'm no expert what so ever and nor am I active, but I read alot of these success stories and I think most people would tell you to up your calorie intake and lift weights at a guess. I'm sure you will get more responses though that will be much more helpful.

You look amazing and so much happier !

I found this site and all of a sudden I knew I could it finally

This time next year I want to be a uk 14 and be able to wear a stubbing dress to a Christmas party with feeling like an ogre :)

From my start weigh I have 120lbs to my goal weight which isn't quite as much but still quite a lot. I have lost 15lb in 5 weeks so far. I log everyday and try to support as much as I can or where I see fit, so feel free to add me if you like :) well done on your 34 lbs so far

Feel free to add me. I'm 22 with over 100 lbs to lose. Part of my motivation is having friends on here who are supportive and all the great feedback feom people makes me feel good and want to keep going maybe having lots of supportive friends could work for you?

My 1 year old is my motivation she's deserves a mummy that can run around the park with her and not have the fat mum

Do you mean your ticker?

And I only spend 2 minutes

Are you weighing all your food? I noticed a HUGE difference in my portion sizes when I started weighing. What you think is a portion can quite easily be double what a portion should be, which means double the calories.

Add me :) I'm 22

Starvation mode isn't real just eating too few calories isn't good for your body

Hi I have just started my journey a few weeks ago at 270lbs my goal weight is 154 lbs . Feel free to add me if you like :)

Haha similar weather doesn't count

Thank you for posting this. I am 22 with over 100lbs to lose and this is the one big thing that has been worrying me. I feel more reassured now

What about fitness related rewards? Buying a piece of home gym equipment you wanted, or a HRM or you could even treat yourself to a new top you wanted.

Stuffing my face in the evening is a problem for me too some days I can get over it but it can take hours to dissuade myself. Glad I'm not the only one who has this trouble. Feel free to add me anyone

Are you weighing all your food and checking packets ect. Everything that can be weighed should be if your not losing your over eating

I'm finding the Leslie sansone videos really good I went from one mile to 4 miles within a week and a half. I also like the biggest loser last chance workout, and doing the low impact moves. All these videos can be found on YouTube. Hope you find something that works for you. If all this fails walking is great exercise and…

You could always try to do some swimming if you feel like you want to do some exercise. You can just take it easy go at your own pace

There is just an option in the exercise list that says pushing or pulling a stroller with child (a stroller in the uk is called a pushchair) so I wasn't sure weather it classed as extra calories burnt. It was just curious as to what I might actually be burning but not curious enough to buy a heart rate monitor. Thanks for…

I have no idea what HIIT is lol

That sounds like it could be fun to try. I know there are suppose to great workouts on YouTube it's just finding them through the crap. Thanks for your suggestions

That sounds like that could be good to try thank you :) I've been using my wii mainly for exercise so far doing just dance and Zumba, anything that doesn't feel loads like exercise and is enjoyable is good for me. I'll have a look at that tonight then :) thank you for the suggestion

Hey! I have been very similar with my weight too. I'm 22 5ft 8 and 270 lbs at the moment. Im now starting to try and lose weight too and using this to try and stay motivated. Sounds like you can lose weight when you set your mind to it so I am sure you will do great this time :)

Thank you everyone for your comments :) it's nice to know I'm not alone on this long journey.
