I have a couple of before and after photos :) I've still got more to lose but this is my progress so far

I LOVE fantasy books. My favourite author is Terry Goodkind :) I've never read the Game of Thrones though

I'm from the UK too so I'm more than happy to be your friend :) I'm from the West Midlands area so feel free to add me :)

I'm not sure yet because I don't know what I'm doing. I'll probably just be myself (I'm very gothic). I'll probably be wearing my most beautiful and gothic dress with my huge platforms and crimped hair :bigsmile:

I'm definitely in on this challenge!! I'm currently 8st 7lb so I'll weigh in everyday Fridays I guess :smile: Good luck everyone!! :bigsmile:

Heyy, I'm more than happy to be your friend :smile: I'll add you :happy:

Yeah you don't realise how thick and creamy the full fat milk is until you've drank skimmed for quite a while.

Yay, I'm glad I'm not the only one then. All my family think I'm weird for drinking it but I really like it. The full fat milk really turns my stomach now so I refuse to touch the stuff. I don't know what most people have against skimmed milk lol.

Ok then I won't buy one, thanks guys :smile:

Heyy *Reading* Temple of the Winds by Terry Goodkind which is a good fantasy book. Terry Goodkind is one of my favourite authors :) *Playing* Pokemon Leaf Green, I've defeated the Elite Four, just caught Mewtwo and now I am looking for Suicune :) I'm not sure what I'm doing after that, I'll probably try and complete the…

Hey, welcome to the group, I also have borderline personality disorder and eating disorder NOS. I understand how hard it is to cope through it all. Are you seeing a professional health care specialist or anything? For my BPD, I've been put into Dialectical behavioural therapy which is for people with BPD and seeing an…

I'll probably be on my rowing machine for a little over half hour and I may take my dog for a pretty long walk :)

I guess it is a little girly because it is such a cute anime ^.^ basically about a family who is cursed so when they are hugged by the opposite sex, they transform into an animal that is a member of the chinese zodiac and this girl from school stumbles across them and ends up living with them and yeah, she gets to meet all…

Awww he/she really is a miracle baby, I'm so happy for you, at least now you have an important reason to get yourself better :)

Oh right, well I was starting off with one shake a day because I drink one normal milkshake once a day but for some reason I just cannot pick up the courage to drink the one the doctor prescribed me. Oh are they gross? They look pretty sickly. Thank you both :) I guess if I want to continue living and not kill myself I'm…

Haha ok then, I won't use them, I like my arms working :happy:

Hey, I'm Cheryl anbd I'm 23 years old, I'm more than happy to be your friend :smile: I really want to lose some weight too so could also do with some supportive people for some motivation. Good luck with your weight loss, seems like you're on the right track since you've lost all those pounds, well done! :smile:

I usually do 30 minutes a day at least 5 days a week :smile:

Hey, struggling with your weight and eating is nothing to be ashamed of as it's really hard to control ourselves when we are hungry. Once we start eating, it's hard to stop until you feel really full and then the guilt kicks in. Starting off will be extremely difficult because it's a complete change of lifestyle but…

I don't go to the gym because of anxiety problems but I own a cross trainer and a rowing machine that I used at least 5 days a week. I prefer working out at home.

Thank you everyone :) Hey Beth, I accepted your friends request :) Yeah walking the dog is great, I'm usually anxious in public but when I have my dog with me it's completely different and it motivates me to keep walking, plus it's good exercise for your dog :tongue: My dog needs to lose some weight, she's getting too big…

Yeah I really love the rowing machine, I go on there more than the cross trainer. I'm glad to know that it is a good workout :happy:

Your medication made you hungry? My antidepressant Mirtazipine is meant to increase your appetite but fortunately, I haven't got that side effect. I'm glad they put you on an appetite suppressant :) I've added you as a friend :smile:

Since I've been losing weight I've started to suffer with bad eczema so I've been prescribed steroid cream from my GP. If you rapidly lose weight like I have, you can become deficient in some vitamins or become anemic which causes dry skin. With your stretch marks, cocoa butter is the best thing for it. I really love that…

Hi, I'm Cheryl from the West Midlands and I'm 23 years old. I've had issues with my eating since October 2012 because I was in a psychiatric hospital for suicide attempts and the patients in there were really dangerous so I never came out my room which meant I didn't go down for breakfast, lunch or dinner and the nurses…

I have an American bulldog :) She's massive!! Walking her is like weight lifting because she's pure muscle ahaha

I have 254 songs in my workout playlist lol, they're mainly really heavy metal songs but I have a lot of Pendulum and Prodigy on there too. I also have some Eminem and Lady Gaga song aha. You can't beat really upbeat fast music blasting in your ears to keep you going, I love it!! :)
