have you ever tried slimming world? you can eat as much as you like of certain foods and just count the treats, fat and sugars, I have lost a stone in 3 months, slow but steady

feel free to add me :)

well for me I am going to the gym and doing mostly cardio at the moment and have been losing 1lb per week on average for 2 months...i use the treadmill...walking fast for like say 3 min and then jog for 1.5-2 mins this keeps your heart rate raised a little continuously and the jogging pushes it up a little higher in short…

feel free to add me :)

i've been on here for a couple of years but never really motivated...now been back a month and lost 8lbs...and about 70lbs to go add me if you like :) x

Hi I was on here every day until 7 months ago....NOW FEELING MORE MOTIVATED!!! I want to lose between 70-80lbs more add me if you like x

i totally agree you need to stand up for your rights....they cannot ban you for that!!!

i have osteoarthritis...not sure how similar...but i get loads af pains in joints and walking/running is hard work...swimming is probably the best i could recommend as it just uses muscles (& lungs lol) takes the weight off them nicely...hope this helps x

just start again the next day...try again...and again and again...you WILL get back on track! x p.s. i do this quite often i'm afraid to say! nikki

go you!!! 4 stone is absolutely EXCELLENT...keep it going and they'll soon notice!!!

i'm here in London add me if you like x

load of **** if ure doing regular exercise where your heart rate is higher than normal and watching what you are eating you WILL lose weight, fewer calories in + more activity therefore more calories out = fat burning full stop!! simple mathematics x

can't really comment as i almost NEVER have any left!! lol

we are all here for the same reason, just all at different levels. together we CAN do this, i would also recommend looking at the success stories of people in similar situation who are almost where they want to be because of the GREAT support on this site!! one day at a time, small goals are much easier to achieve than…

i hear ya there!! that's the one and only reason/excuse i have for being the way i am!!! it happens sometimes but i think the key is to not let it carry on and spiral back to a habit! x

WELL DONE you! usually people like that are unhappy with themselves...so instead of talking/treating themselves like that they transfer the 'hate' to others...no excuse though!!!

WELL DONE!! keep it going girl...you can really see the difference!!

errrrm DRINK MORE WATER!!!!!!! and get a pregnancy test too good luck x

add meeeeee? i'm 225lbs, joined in April it's going down quite slow for me (but would be even slower or UP if i wasnt on here logging every day!) i'd like to lose around 60lbs (or more if it happens) was never skinny and don't really want to be proper slim...but 165lbs will do for me!! Nikki x

not being ignorant...i'm from UK, what is MEDIFAST? whatever it is we don't have it here i don't think, is it like slimfast with the shakes?

just a suggestion, maybe if you could PLAN a treat? i know only too well that this is easier to say than to do, but if you have something to look forward to say at the end of the week (only if you've stuck to eating well and exercise for the 1st 6 days) then i think then you feel less deprived, and it is also a little…

Real name = Nikki 08/01: starting weight = 224lbs 08/08: 223.6 08/15: 227.8 (sorry!) 08/22: 08/29: 08/31: Goal weight on 31st August = 216

fan-bloody tastic!!!!!!!! GO YOU!!!

yeah the higher your heart rate the more calories you burn, and you need to have a raised heart rate for minimum of 20 minutes to burn any fat, hope this helps x

one thing i could suggest is you read some success stories, they really help me sometimes when i am low on motivation! good luck & feel free to add me Nikki x

i am afraid to say i do this every few days.....but i think that you should just keep on logging even if you haven't had a good day....and i think eventually the habit will stick along with the actual eating x

welcome & good luck! nikki x
