Not relevant to post but cannot figure out how you got your posts to have your goals etc underneath your posting?? Help!! :-)

I was going to ask for the same advice. I've dropped from a 38DD to 36DD now but still have the same problem!! It looks awful when i'm working out too!

My mum suffers with this and she has a purpose bought wedge in the heel of all her shoes now. She's on her feet most of the day as she works in a garden centre and she just wouldn't survive without them!

Bingo wings!! (UK) I've just come on here to look for solutions to rid them!! Any suggestions welcome! :-)

I'm with you on that! My brother's wedding is fast approaching and i'm no where near where I want to be. I've had to give myself a talking to and just accept that it's not going to happen but to stick with it and i'll get there eventually!!

Great advice!! I wish someone had bullied me into the "now not Monday" thing!!!

Hi, I started my weight loss journey at the beginning of March and have lost 19lb so far. For the first couple of months I was doing Diet Chef and not working out at all! Since then i've given up on the Diet Chef for financial reasons but have stuck to 1200 cals a day and started working out once if not twice a day. I walk…

I had the tiredness thing and am also a little anaemic. I take multivitamin with iron for the anaemia and, after numerous blood tests, the docs discovered I have an underactive thyroid just like my mum. I'm now on medication for this forever but I feel like a different person. They also thought it was one of the reasons I…

I'm sticking too! I eat 1350 cals a day and exercise 5-6 times a week for approx. 60 mins. I'm doing 30 day shred at the mo - on day 5 today. My weight just won't budge. I guess I should be grateful it's not going up again!! :-)

I'm on Day 2 of the shred and it's not as hard as I thought, feeling it a bit today though! Stick at it though as i've not heard of it not working. If it's any consolation i'm 5'5 and got married when I was 3 months pregnant!! You could barely see a bump but I weighed 13st 4lb which is less than I weigh now but not near as…

I walk and love it too! I walk at a brisk 3.5 to 4 mph usually and find it gets my heart going quite well but if it's not feeling that effective I add some hills in and trust me we have some good hills where we live!! :-)

Day 1!!!!!!

I personally would log it and not eat all of them back - maybe half?? :-)

Salad all the way!! I've just had a real plate full and not used 80 cals!! :-)

I use Wii fit too as I have 2 small children so the gym is difficult. I also walk when I can! My Wii fit is setto burn 225 cals which I do easily in about 45 mins on various activities. Try go on everyday just to do the body test & get weighed/bmi even if I don't have time to exercise. Good luck. :-)

I'm Yorkshire too. Feel free to add me!!

I suffered with post natal depression after the birth of my 2nd in 2009. It took me months to admit there was a problem and I needed help but eventually I got there and they gave me anti depressants. Nowhere along the way did anyone mention exercise! I was on the tablets for nearly 12 months and gradually weaned myself off…

Wow! That's a lot of calories in one day!! How do you burn those off?? :-)

I've sky+ The Big Workout and Elise Lindsay's High & Low impact aerobics on Fitness TV. Not done them yet but they look really easy to follow and i'll definitely be giving them a shot. :-)

Count me in. Been trying to do 4 miles 3 or 4 times a week anyway. Nice to have others doing the same. Keep us posted on your progress!! :-)

Me too!! Gave my walk a miss this morning as I felt a bit cold/achy but now I feel really fat and fed up!

I've just increased my daily intake as I had it set wrong so i'm worried this is how it's going to be everyday! I've had 3 good, healthy meals today and I really don't know what else I could eat!! Definitely not hungry though and even feel as though I could do some more exercise!!

I've got galaxy s (android) and love it. MFP app is great too.

The one i've looked at is a watch but has an optional chest strap. Must fasten together some how. I just don't want to get the watch version if it's not as accurate as it kind of defeats the object! Thanks.

The last bit is always the hardest!! I can't wait to be down to my last 10lb!! Looking at your pic though you don't look as though you need to lose anymore. Well done for it so far though. x

I've just checked via the Diet Chef plan that I was originally doing and, with my current weight, it's telling me I should be at 1930 calories a day which sounds very high to me!! With that information i've come back to MFP and updated my goals. I now have a daily cals allowance of 1350 + my exercise calories (approx.…

I'm drinking between 4 and 6 glasses a day which is a lot for me. I hate the stuff!!

I'm exactly the same! I'm getting fed up of pulling my jeans up & wearing a belt creates a lump under my top!!

Thanks for this. Had a read and it seems my cals are where they should be. Like you say, these things take time. Maybe i'm just trying to rush it. 1lb a week isn't that bad and I guess it's going the right direction! It's the weeks where it stays the same that I get a bit stalled with. Thanks.

MFP set the 1200. I've had a week with it at 1350 thinking it wasn't set high enough but i've put weight on. No i'm not wearing a hrm. From most posts on here though it seems MFP does over estimate the exercise cals a little, hence the reason i've not been eating all of them back.
