Hello all! My name's Ailsa and this I've been a user of this app on and off for many years now depending on where my health and mental health are sitting. I've recently been in the worst places I've ever been with both and have had a couple of health scares and a warning that I need to change things for good now. I'm…

I've been on and off mfp for the better part of 4 years. Sadly due to life events I'm at the heaviest I've ever been, and needing to lose around 60lbs. Would love to have some friends for motivation, accountability, a chat, whatever!! 😊😊

I've been looking up recipes for a while now: here's a few of my favourite sites. I've tried a few from each and they do not disappoint! http://www.popsugar.co.uk/fitness/32-Vegan-Lunches-You-Can-Take-Work-37424266#photo-37424264 http://www.buzzfeed.com/melissaharrison/vegetarian-dump-dinners-for-the-crock-pot#.pxVv3DLGP…

Hey OP if you are still reading haha, just to say good luck in your quest! There are a million and 1 fad diets and techniques that claim to lose belly fat, and people will claim that this 1 super-amazing thing is the trick. In truth, location of fat loss yes is genetic, and sadly the only way to combat that is liposuction…

Feel free to add. I've been on here for a while now but I'm restarting as such :) Would love to have folks to stay motivated with :)

Rather than sleeping in today I got up earlier than I normally would and met my friend at the gym. I'm so glad I did, it set me up so well for the rest of the day! Still buzzing from the workout right now!

CW - 178lbs GW - 154lbs H - 5"7 Age 21 If anyone is similar feel free to add :) would be great to have someone with similar goals to share some motivation with! :)

Mine is open :) Every couple of week i'm adding new recipes from various places :) Anyone feel free to add :)

Hooray for science!! I'm currently training to become a doctor and all of the fads out there are crazy. Some just ridiculous, others pure dangerous!! Feel free to add for sensible talks :)

Thanks for all the advice guys!!! Never realised actually how much stuff was high in protein!! Those cookbook recommendations are brilliant too! No more sore muscles for days after workouts for me: no way hose :D

I can cook yes however I've never really been that adventurous with my cooking (I genuinely just googled what seitan was). Do most health food shops do tofu?? That sounds so bad considering I've been veggie most of my life haha but pasta, rice and potatos are my staples and have been since I was very young.

Heya :) First of all congrats on making that initial step. Its hard yes, but now you get to watch the numbers get better and better every week :) Its not gonna be an easy journey but from what I've found MFP is the place to be for encouragemnt :) You've got the worst bit over, the start weight. Now lets work towards that…

I know pictures can be overrated but... This is my screensaver.

As a rather broke student I have an idea of what this is like! I tend to try and get what I can from budget shops (Aldi/Lidl) and everything else I just go for basic rather than branded. Simple tips that I'm sure you know but it has helped me to be able to actually afford to eat healthier :) Best of luck!! You got this!! ;)

Hi I am pretty much the same as you I'm 5"7 and 12stone 8lbs and I want to get down to around 10.5 stone :) Feel free to add as all the more support each of us gets the better!!!

I too am on antidepressants but my weight has been flip-flopping to no end, 1 minute i'm losing, the next I'm gaining, I know that every time I lost a pound for a while I would put on 3 more in the next 2 weeks. :( With 50lbs though you may want to chat to your doc about seeing if a different antidepressant will work, some…

Hi, I'm Ailsa, I'm just new to this so some group support would be very much appreciated :D
