Was diagnosed with fibro last december. I used to enjoy my long walks and was on my way to a great weight loss. Now I cant walk 20 minutes without needing a sleep or being in pain. My weight has gone up again. I have days were I feel very weak that even standing up can be too much.

I only eat back 40-50% of the calories burned, sometimes I dont at all. Ive been trying to get out walking everyday but not always able to due to my husbands work hours and other personal things. The stepper does have a monitor but its not working at the minute :cry: .

I plan to use it later while watching tv. Its a reebok rem-g7580 mini stepper, I just wasnt sure how to input it on MFP. Do I put it down as walking, climbing stairs etc.

Elton Johns - Candle in the wind. Dedicated to Princess Diana, that always makes me cry. The Rose - Bette Midler. Remember singing this in the school choir when at school.

I know this thread is old but thought this might help others. Prune juice is brilliant for constipation, I suffer from ibs and it helps me lots. Not the nicest thing you will ever taste but you dont need alot

I use flora light or light olive spread, I just dont like real butter. Only time I use it is for baking. Margarine is NOT one molecule from plastic or paint. If we listened to everything friends, newspapers etc said then living is bad for us!…

Such a sad thing to hear, a fantastic actor who always looked so happy! My heart goes out to his family. Mrs Doubtfire was my favourite as a child and now its my childrens favourite. RIP

I started nearly 2 weeks ago, I am looking forward to the day when someone asks me if I have lost weight! I would take it as a compliment.

Had them for the first time last night. I was in the same boat, was weary about trying them. There doesnt seem to be a taste from them! I turned mine into a dip to break myself in! One avocado, 1/2 red onion and 50g of feta cheese. Blended it all together and it was the most delicious thing that I ever tasted!! There is…

I can easily drink 2-3 litres a day and thats not pushing myself! I have found a change in my body since doing so and all positive. The only downside I had was that the first few days I was getting up in the night needing the bathroom, this has since stopped.

Just finished my first week and I lost 3lbs :smile:

Personally I would build yourself up gradually, rather than throwing yourself right into it! However dont think it would do you any harm to go talk to your doctor. Explain your symptoms etc to them, if you do have an Iron Deficiency then they will pick up on it. Hope you get sorted xx

Looking for friends that are looking to lose alot of weight like me.

I avoid weddings etc because there is no way I have the confidence to put my vast bulk into a dress! There is a family wedding next year and I want to go to it! Also I want to enjoy running about with my kids, go swimming etc - something I wouldnt dare do now! I went through a health scare and it gave me a wake up call.…

We spend around £100 a week on groceries. However that includes washing tablets, toilet roll etc. We do go to a butchers for our meat as I feel its better quality than you get in supermarkets, I go once a month to the butchers and get about £30-£40 worth of meat. However I noticed last week and this week our grocery bill…

Im just starting out but I am terrible for late night snacking, kids are in bed so only time I get peace! I put snacks in the freezer, it takes me so much longer to eat it that I find im not snacking as much. Seems to be working for me, ive lost just over 2lbs this week so far :smile:

Yes I had to get blood tests done and got a letter from them saying about my thyroid. At the minute I am not on medication, they want to repeat the bloods again in 6 weeks. Dont know what happens after that. I am not blaming my thyroid for my weight, I just wondered if its harder to lose weight. You have done so well with…

I read all books, I describe it as a steamier version of mills and boons. There are many more better written books in the same genre. I liked the crashed trilogy by K Bromberg. I think alot of people read the book as it was the thing to do, the film will be the same.

Thanks for the warm welcome. Today I did a nice healthy shop and purchased a good set of digital scales (cant fool myself then). Havent drank coke in 2 days and dont miss it!

Hi everyone, ive only just started today but feeling very confident. After ending up at hospital thinking my heart was about to give out I knew things needed to change. Thankfully my health was just fine! I have a whopping 182lbs to lose! I aim that in 2 years I will literally be half the person I am today!
