Definitely up for this. Need to get rid of that christmas belly :) I find it really hard to motivate myself and have been yoyo dieting for as long as I can remember. If anyone wants to team up to help each other out then feel free to add and message me. Name: Cate Height: 5'3 Starting Weight (1/1): TBC - probably around…

Thank you for all your replies :-) I know 144 lb for my height isn't the worst but my body is also pretty disproportionate. I know people who have a higher BMI than me but have a lovely proportional hourglass shape whereas I have these skinny little legs and all my fat is stored on top, it's pretty horrible :( I'm going to…

No one? :(

@mdallas6 I will try the low carb technique! Thank you for recommending it. And I never thought of measuring myself. I am exactly like that, if my scale remains the same or worse, goes up, I lose all motivation. But now that I've learnt that it's because of water retention, I will definitely give it a go.

Thank you everyone. I will try to eat cleaner and be more consistent with my calories. I feel much less demotivated now by reading everyones advice!

Ty so much everyone, I will take all your advice on board :-)

About a week ago. I'm trying to run for at least 20 minutes every 2-3 days. I know it's not much but I'm trying to start off slow.

And I lost those 5lb in the first month of when I started but ever since I've just been the same weight.

Hi everyone, I've put my diary on public now. I completely went off the rails in week beginning 24th Feb. Also I don't log my exercise (I run on the treadmill btw) because I don't eat back calories so I don't see the point as long as I do it. Thanks for all your advice :-)

I weigh all my foods by the way. Some days I go crazy and just sort of give up and eat another bag of chips or whatever. But generally I try to be as accurate as possible. Maybe that's why I'm not losing?

Thanks for you answer. I want to lose 30lb eventually but not before June. I am aware that is unhealthy. My aim is to lose at least 15lb by then :-)

Btw my goal is to reach 130 lb by June. Is this achieavable?

Thank you everyone :)

Ty everyone :D

Thanks, so do you recommend going back up to 2078 cals once a week, or only when I plateau?
