Thanks for all your help! I'm going to try eating 1400 as eating 1200 obviously is not working and the extra 200 calories would allow me to have a treat every so often. I like to think I eat quite well during the week and find it easy to stick to. I think the problem I have is that I plan my weekdays and keep to it, but…

I'm currently 200 lbs and 5"7. I wonder whether it might be worth trying a few more calories, because sometimes I feel starved during the week and that probably makes me more likely to binge! Thanks for your support :)

Hi! Im 20 and from bolton in the UK! I also have about 50 lbs to lose so feel free to add me! :D

Hi! I feel in a similar position to you. im 20, before starting uni I was a size 10-12, and I have just finished my second year and ballooned up to a 14-16! like you i also struggle with my bottom half, I used to be an hourglass shape and now am a full on pear! :( Im from the uk aswell. Feel free to add me for extra…

Hi kim! Welcome to my fitness pal! Ive been on here for about a year and its only in the past month that I have become really motivated, ive lost 17 lbs so far and feel like i really need to step it up as I would like to loose about 50 lbs altogether! Feel free to add me!

wow thats amazing! you look smokin hot! such an inspiration! congrats!!!

wow thats amazing! I want to lose 40 lbs in 6 months so I would love to know how you did it! :happy:

Chinese food! I crave it all the time! :(

wow you look beautiful! Gorgeous dresses too!

wow brilliant! Thanks for doing this! :) can't wait to start doing it now! (never thought id say that!)

I love zumba on the wii, it doesn't feel like its a workout at all, its so much fun! Hoping for zumba 2 for christmas!!

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/1347-5-6-with-40-pounds-to-go This is the group for anyone who wants to join!

well i think we are meant to do it everyday but its very hard, so we'll have it as jillians 60 day shred! We'll probably lose more as we'll be eating healthy for 2 months alongside this. :)

Yeah I couldnt walk for 2 days after doing day 2 so every other day works for me!

Oh yeah! You get really sweaty after a 20 minute workout!, ive still yet to finish a 45 minute class. You should definatley get it! I haven't got any other fitness games apart from wii fit and biggest loser (which is rubbish) so im not sure about kinect, look at some reviews of games on amazon and get the games with the…

Thats great! Its hard but with us all doing it together itll make it easier! and it makes you feel so good afterwards! Im so glad this group was made, it feels so good to have some encouragement from everyone :)

Well im currently on weightwatchers so ill be following that plan along with using mfp. Im planning to do the 30 day shred for my exercise and also using my zumba on the wii (which is so much fun btw!) so Im just cutting down on what I eat and exercising a bit more :)

Yeah you should get a tape measure theyre very cheap! Yeah we could measure chest(across boobs) smallest of waist, largest measurement around hips, thighs and tops of arms.

Id love to lose it sooner so any help would be appreciated!

Im in! I think its a really good idea to throw us back into weight loss after the holidays! What date should we start? I dont fancy it on the 1st as a will be nursing a hangover! :p

Yeah i think thats a great idea! we could have weekly weigh ins aswell :) what do you guys think of starting jillians 30 day shred at the start of january?

Thanks to ashley, a group has been made! so everyone join it and we can use it to motivate one another! heres the link: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/1347-5-6-with-40-pounds-to-go

Yeay well done on making the group! :) Hi im pip, Im 5'6 and am currently at 195 and would like to get down to 160 to be in a healthy range for me. I would like to do this by august 2012 as am going on holiday to florida then. This group will be great for anyone who needs a bit of motivation! We can do this ladies! :D

We need someone whos good at making groups! anyone???

Yeah i don't understand why they changed it, ive heard loads of complaints of people saying that they can't lose any weight! Its a waste of money if it doesn't work and I just spent more money on getting some of the old books back! So im going to try and be on the old weightwatchers plan and see if it works just as well as…

We should make a group for all people who want to lose this much and we could post weighins and tips etc each week, Ive not made a group on mfp yet, does anyone know how to make one?

Yeah definately! were all here to help each other!

Weve got exactly the same goal and starting weight! Except ive got 2 more months to lose it! we can have a competition to see who loses what each week!

I think ideally id like to be about 150lbs, im quite curvy so ill never be skinnier than that! Ive been that weight before and I look healthy at that weight :)

I don't know really, I just feel that christmas is a hard time to keep to a diet, and january just sounds like a fresh start! But i supposed theres nothing stopping me lose a few lbs before january! :)
