Wow! Well done! I started at 190 and am aiming for 154 (I'm 5'6'') so it's great to see some pics of someone who's achieved that amount of loss. Thanks :)

Hi, I log every day (so far!), feel free to add me :)

It's a great feeling isn't it. I had never lost more than 5lbs before joining MFP (although to be fair I had never really put any effort in!) so to see the changes is really exciting. Well done and keep it up!! :drinker:

Fantastic - well done!

You look like a completely different person - you look lovely in both but seem happier in the new one.Good work for persevering and thank you for sharing your story!

Wow! Well done! You look fantastic :)

Great work! You can really see the difference! Well done :)

Congratulations! It's great to know your hard work is paying off. Well done :smile:

Wow! Well done. You look lovely in both pictures but I think you look younger in the second one, and so happy! Thanks for posting this and keeping us all motivated :)

Wow! What a great achievement. You look fantastic, well done. I'm intrigued by your HamsterSquasher name too.....! :)

Gorgeous!

Great advice and great gif :)

Hi! Good work in recommitting to this. You can do it. Do you think that the additional weight could be some muscle? How did you calculate your 2000 cals intake, was it through MFP or did you calculate it using BMR and TDEE? Did you weigh and log everything you ate every day? Did you eat back your exercise calories? The…

Hi, I'm in the UK too, in Somerset. Feel free to add me :)

Not a small success at all! I'm (almost) there with you and I know what an achievement it is! Well done. You can really see the change. You were fabulous before and gorgeous now, well done :drinker:

Oh, just remembered another one. I was having my hair done and one of the junior hairdressers was washing my hair. She asked what I did and I said that I was on maternity leave from work. She asked when the baby was due. I told her my baby was 7 months old. Again I thought this was really funny, she was mortified. That one…

At a wedding in November a guy patted my belly and asked when I was due. I laughed and told him I wasn't pregnant - not only that, I had a glass of wine in one hand and a cigarette in the other - he shook his head and said 'No, no, you're pregnant aren't you. Cmon, when's it due?' . I honestly thought this was funny rather…

Great advice!

Hi! Ever since I started putting weight on in my 20s I promised myself that I'd lose it all by the time I was 30. Well....that didn't happen, but it will happen by the time I'm 31! Feel free to add me if you'd like. I've lost 19lbs and have at least another 20 to go before I hit a 'healthy' BMI. You can do this!! x

Holy moly well done!

Fantastic! What an achievement. You were lovely before and are lovely now, but you can really see the confidence in your face now :) Well done! x

You look fantastic! Good work!

Congratulations to the OP, what a great success!! And thank you for bringing this in to my life!

Firstly, well done for training so hard! You're doing great. This link is really helpful, I re-read these fairly often! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1069275-links-in-mfp-you-want-to-read-again-and-again Once you've read all of that, it would be helpful calculate your BMR, TDEE and body fat, and base your calorie…

Yay congratulations! Sometimes the scales don't do justice to the big changes that are happening to our bodies. Keep up the good work!

Fantastic. What a great feeling. Well done!

Hi, In the UK we use stone and lbs, a stone is 14 lbs. I have no idea why!

Hi, Yes I think running has helped with my weight loss, combined with calorie deficit. I tend to eat the majority of my calories back. I run three times a week, around 3 miles a time so roughly 9 miles a week, sometimes more sometimes less. Have you been measuring? If you're running alot it's likely that you've built…

Hi! I started in mid-Jan weighing 13st 9lbs, and have lost 1 st 3lbs in 10 weeks - I initially wanted to try and get to around 11 st in 3 months but I've realised that it will be better to take it slow now that Iv'e made a start. Feel free to add me if you'd like :smile:

Hey, looks like you're doing really well! Good job! As you are at such a low calorie target (1200 cals) it's really important that you hit this every day to avoid going in to ketosis (aka starvation mode) - it's tempting to eat as little as possible but it won't help in the long run. Are you completely sedentary all day?…
