That’s so reassuring to know. Thank you!

Aug 1 - 10.056 Just snuck over the line!

This is so useful to read, sitting on the sofa with my hot water bottle! My scales today said 2lbs up and whilst I know logically what the reason for this is, emotionally, it is hard to see. I struggle with patience, but I know that in 2-3 days time I will see the difference. Keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll be fine

I love this thread and the OP, I’ve always done the same thing. Lots of good intentions in my head, starting tomorrow! Well for today, I am going to log my food and stick to my calorie goals.

Thanks for your posts. This is the kick I need to really think about my diet and lifestyle and make some changes.

A friend always used to ask herself, do I need this or do I want this? She always swore by it. I do like the apple theory in the OP- going to try it!

22kg is amazing, thank you for sharing your story.

I find waking great, I do the three miles home from Work in about 45mins so keeps My heart rate up. I find jogging too hard but can walk for days! Helps me be in calorie deficit too

This is such a good thread! I had a dry cleaners near me who had a really good tailed. She did alterations of some of my clothes down either one or two sizes max, it was a much cheaper way of managing the transition and meant I could buy some new clothes too!

I’m weighing daily first thing in the morning!

Hi I set this account up a few years ago but didn’t really use it much. Well, I need to lose 50lbs so am ready to use it now! I’m only 5 days in, enjoying it so far. I can see the food diary will be most useful. Good luck, free free to add me

Thanks for reaching out, Please feel free to add me,

You can do it! Please feel free to add me

Was in London but in Manchester now. Happy for anyone to add me!

Add me, I’m just getting started too.

Reaching out was a brave first step, well done. You’ve had so much success, don’t lose heart. Perhaps it’s time to step back mentally and evaluate, what has worked, what you feel is not working anymore, what small change/s you could make to your diet or routine that would help you feel more positive. Maintenance is so hard…

I love your phrase, living up. I want to do that too, add me! I’m just starting and am posting daily

Hi, I’m Nathalie. Am in my 40’s now, single no kids. I have about 50lbs to lose as a starting point! Am ready for it to take time, but am dreading the plateau as that’s where I’ve fell down before. Going to bookmark this thread, please add me too!

I’m up for this, I need to have some kind of structure during the holidays otherwise I just sit on my behind all day!

Count me in too, need to stay focused over the holidays!
