Wow!!!!! I really cannot believe the response! So many nurses and shift-workers sharing my pain! I feel really motivated knowing that this is a shared journey and that others live hectic lifestyles. I will accept all the friend requests, and we'll do this together : ) Thank you!

Goodness me! What a massive achievement!!! The difference took my breath away!

Well done! You look stunning, but you also look really toned and strong, good for you!

You're so beautiful! You have an amazing smile, makes me want to smile : ) Well done with your weight loss, you're doing fantastically.

Sorry Guys I failed tonight : ( Had a Domino's tonight..... and I didn't do the workout : ( Sorry, I'll try harder tomorrow. I'm going to start Level 2 tomorrow

Well done rosiebug!!!! It feels great doesn't it? I'm so glad you're getting that buzz too now. Welcome newcomers!

I have to say I'm quite disappointed by some of the posters on this topic (not the funny ones, but the ones who are just downright hurtful towards to OP). MFP is a supportive community of people from all different backgrounds, with all sorts of knowledge to contribute. Help the OP by increasing her knowledge, and when you…

Day 7 done! Well I kept to my word and had a blow out, WOW I didn't know a pie could ever have that many calories!!!! BUT I am below my sugar allowance for the day he he he :) crazy! so I'm taking jvinmill's advice and ignoring the sugar limit on MFP from now on. Another good workout for me today. For everyone who is…

Hello juliep, I'm dreading Level 2, I took a sneak peek and now I wish I hadn't!!!! but it makes me feel better that people think Level 3 is easier, that's what I will be focusing on. and jvinmill 'whoop!' with the free tickets! sounds like you had a fab time : ) Day 6 done. I felt FANTASTIC this workout!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…

You look absolutely beautiful : )

It's crazy how quickly our bodies can change, you must have felt so great leaping up those stairs : )

Day 5 done...but struggled tonight. I haven't eaten enough today and boy did it show when I did the workout, I found it very hard. Not intentionally down on calories, just a manic day of grabbing food on the go and wolfing it down. I need to have more in the house like nuts or crispbreads and cheese so I can make up my…

Day 4 DONE Made it through the workout, and I can definitely feel progress from Day 1, I'm not as out of puff by the end. Had a healthy diet today, but still amazed at how much sugar creeps in there, think I should be trying to eat more veg rather than fruit, as I guess there is quite a lot of natural sugar in food like…

Welcome to the group! : ) I've sent my friend request now

Day 3 completed! You were sure right about the hand weights!!! I can feel all the muscles in my upper arms, around my shoulders to my back. Calves have been aching all day, BUT actually felt a lot better and I felt springier after this workout. It's funny what you said about your salt intake, until now I didn't realise how…

Well I've survived Day 2! Whoop! Can really feel my tummy muscles and also feel it in my calfs this evening. I've added a few of you as friends from this group, hope u don't mind. I must have been a bit click happy because MFP told me I couldn't add anyone else after 5 requests in ten mins! Lol! Bought some actual hand…

I would love to join too please : ) I started it today. I had a halfhearted attempt at it earlier on in the year, but this time I'm absolutely determined to follow it through for the full 30 days. I bought a gorgeous dress off eBay to wear on Christmas Day....but the zip just will not do up!!! I'm determined to get in that…

Wow I'm really horrified by what babyblake said! This is a supportive community of people losing weight sensibly with baby steps leading on to a healthy lifestyle in the long run. No one should be spoken to like that. We all have treats, and it's really not the end of the world! It would be a very long and boring life if…

I'm a HUGE fan of the barcode scanner! : ) I use it every day, and it feels like science fiction every time : ) I showed my friends one day when we were chatting about healthy eating, and my iphone got passed around while everyone had a go on their lunches lol

You're so beautiful, supermodel looks!! Well done getting your stomach and abs looking so incredible so soon after pregnancy, that's a huge achievement

Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You look so happy in the second picture So proud of you!!! That took real hard work and dedication I'm sure.

I absolutely love your dress Beautyfromwithin! It's stunning, well done with your weight loss too

You look absolutely stunning, well done with the weight loss!

I totally agree with Rob. There's no leakage issues if you stick to less than 15g fat per meal; and boy is it a good incentive to do that! I've been on it for a week, and have had absolutely no bad side effects, and I'm in full control of my bowels still : ) It's made me think very hard about the food choices I make, and…

You're definitely right Bluesman, LET's GET THAT LADYBIRD RUNNING ALONG THAT TICKER!!! Could we look at your Food Diary to help you?

I'm taking Pregabalin (Lyrica) for anxiety. It's usually used to treat epilepsy, which I don't have, but now it's starting to be used for people with anxiety that hasn't been helped by anti-depressants. I also take Duloxetine (Cymbalta) for depression. I would say that it is harder to lose weight on these meds, but it is…

You look incredible!! You must feel so proud of yourself, well done!!!

I've always loved my natural blonde wavy long hair. I cut it to a bob when I was 10, worst mistake EVER!!!!! I spent ages growing it long again, and i don't think I'll ever cut it short again.

WOW thank you so much for all your replies! I'm going to be kept busy looking through your diaries for ideas. My main problem whenever I try to eat healthily is I live on plain old boring lettuce leaves, then I get ravenously hungry, and completely binge eat on cheesecake, cookies, donuts, etc... and then I'm back to…
