MFP really ticks me off. 1,200 calories is probably less than my toddler eats and yet it seems to suggest it for most women. I am 5'2 and 9st5lbs and I am losing weight on much more than that. I have maintained around this weight in the past at about 2,000 a day and that is when I am NOT nursing. According to MPF I should…

I think that a UK size 8 would be a realistic goal for me. I am apple shaped and carry most of my weight on my boobs and middle and wear a 32G/H bra…

I find that it helps me to have a day or two where I eat a lot more than I have been eating. This speeds up your metabolism and then when you go back to your diet you will start losing again.

The eating what I want but counting calories thing has always worked for me. The only issue with this is is that many junk foods will not fill you up. On days where I have chosen to eat 100g of chocolate I have to be prepared to spend most of the day hungry but I have still lost. Just make sure you take a multivitamin if…
