Thank you lovelies x

Was 205lb, now 137lb. Taken 3 years. My BMI is 22.6 - although bmi doesn't take into account muscle etc so is technically a load of rubbish. I'm 36 and 5'5". And yes, I am worried about 1.5lb because I've worked damn hard to get this far and i dont want to mess it up. If your trying to say I look skinny, thays not the look…

Snap. I do and think the same as you.

Well done on maintaining for so long! Thank you for the links x

Thank you both. I'm scared of gaining weight though if I increase calories 😖 silly I know, I've just come so far I'm scared of putting it back on

Your not experiencing a plateau if your still losing. Have you tried adjusting your macros? Maybe play around with those. What sort of workouts are you doing? Have you measured to see if your shape is changing, you may not be losing as much weight as you like but you may be losing inches? Just a few thoughts x

Thank you all for your responses and advice, I trust appreciate it. My mind still believes I'm 205lb, that's the problem. Katherine, I would just like to me a comfy UK size 10 again x

Very true hun

Thank you, don't feel it though. I havnt tried talking therapy. Guess i don't want to admit I may have a problem? I do use a food scale x

You guys and girls are fab, thank you so much for replying. I just don't like seeing my weight increase when I've spent years trying to get it down lol. Been to the gym tonight and feel better. I'm super wobbly all over and can't lose my belly 🙄

Thank you

Added you ladies. Please feel free to add me, need accountability!

Hey hun, I am actually losing 1lb a week if I stick to 1350 Monday to Friday and don't track at weekends. I'd love to look like you but that will never happen lol

And yeah, we eat out and bake etc 🙈

I lift three times a week yeah x

I need to get it together really. I'm 147lb and want to get back down to 140lb (I'm 5'6) but I have lots of body fat still.

Thank you!

I've been trying to do that Kami, but it's difficult as ive been doing it for so long. Thank you both. I'll try increasing calories and fingers crossed I won't gain or continue to be hungry.

Thanks, just done a tdee calculator... 1860 calories maintenance and 1360 cutting 🤨

No, never have. I don't track how many calories I burn exercising.

Set on losing 1lb a week because I don't track weekends x

35/35/30 (carb/protein/fat). To be honest, I'm a Monday to Friday coubter and don't track or log at weekends. Not sure on fibre intake, what ever is set by mfp. Think I'm currently set on losing 1lb a week x

Thank you all xxx

Thank you, most helpful answer here.

Matter of opinion. I'm not suggesting she loses any more.

You look fine in that last pic tbh

No pain as such in my belly area. I was at target but gained a little back so have 7lb to lose. I was 14st 12lb and I'm currently 10st 6lb. I would love some toning advice of possible please. I generally have a flabby belly which sticks out, if that makes sense. I'm aware I can not spot reduce but this is just frustrating…
