Originally from South Africa, lived in Michigan for 3 yrs, now in Amsterdam for the last few months.

Not sure which areas are covered under 'south east' as I am new to the state. I am in Rochester Hills

In Rochester Hills, Michigan. Hi everyone!

Cape Town, South Africa

<3 True Love. <3 Thankfully, when you are deeply in love, the sex is great anyway because your physical and emotional feelings are linked if you are in love I think.

I'd like to give it a go please :) First time participating

I also have PCOS. I have 80lbs to lose. The good news is that losing weight actually will help reverse a lot of the PCOS symptoms that make life so difficult. That is plenty motivation so let's hope we can all stick to it!

I have PCOS and am 33 years old. When I am motivated enough and stick to it, i have amazing success with low carbs (not none... low) and of course exercise (anything even walking) at least 3 times a week.

This....

I just started to use Endomondo (Sports Tracker) and I love it!! All activity automatically goes to MFP and it's so easy to use. Good luck in your decision

Cape Town, South Africa :D

Congratulations! What an inspiration. So happy to see it really can be done! I have lost 8kg so far. I need to loose a total of 40Kgs Really so wonderful to see your achievement! Well done!

I log every single thing even the tiny amounts because I am the kind of person who might just stop logging altogether if there are some things I do and some things I don't log.

I've seen some negative reviews of her on mfp, but I really enjoy flopping around trying to follow Jillian Michaels videos :)

Great idea!

You are not alone on this one. I am the same. Wish I could change my mindset to the point where I can accept I ate something I shouldn't have and just continue that same day in a better, more healthy way.

I had cravings for a Zinger over the weekend and I am not scared to go and get one. It is reasonably low calorie compared to some of the other fast food burgers available. Just make sure you have enough calories available and then there should be no problem with a burger every now and then.

Just for my own current mission (also have over 100 to lose) ... did you eat back the exercise calories over and above the 1700 per day?

Me too!!!!!! In fact it pisses me off. I think it is because I just WISH that the hunt fr the perfect jeans on a perfect body was my biggest issue. Maybe it is jealousy? But either way.... I feel the same!

Have sent some friend requests. I have over 100lbs to lose too and ALWAYS looking for more friends. There is no such thing as too much support and motivation. Feel free to add me Good luck to us all!

I've sent you a friend request because I go to Curves 3 to 4 times per week. I really love the ladies there who do the coaching. I feel fantastic after each workout!

wow. I need to learn this. What fantastic advice. I have problems with my hubby devouring anything I leave in the fridge and I get so angry about it and like other posters have mentioned, that urge to eat it ALL before someone else helps themselves to it creeps in.

What he said. Remember that it is YOUR journey. Those people who cannot be supportive and helpful in your process do not deserve to enjoy you when you have reached your goals. Just saying... Good luck! You can do it!

Spur have updated their website so that when you are on the menu, you can select each dish or side and see exact nutritional values. Using this recently, I went prepared. I selected the 200g steak and a garden salad. I cut the steak in half for the doggie bag which I enjoyed the next day for lunch at home :)

Absolutely amazing. Gives people like me so much hope! Thank you for sharing your success and VERY well done. You look stunning!!

Cape Town :) Anyone walking in the Pick 'n Pay Womens Walk in Feb? It's a 5km and I am tempted to try it. Hoping I am fit enough by then, but really would like someone to walk with.

Cape Town - South Africa :)

hahahahahahah!!! I just about fell off my chair laughing. Thanks for that

I Love Curves. With the 'Curves Smart' where you tag into each machine as you start it and it accesses your previous performance on that machine and then pushes you harder when you need it. That way you are always progressing and no workout is the same. I am not great at explaining. Hope you enjoy the week free trial and…

South Africa - Cape Town :)
