<3 WEIGH-IN SUNDAY <3 So I just weighed-in, and technically I'm down 1 lb, after 3 days of being back on MFP and logging food. The thing is though, I'm actually only back to my weight from last Sunday in reality. I tried to 'cut' food Monday-Weds this week, and put on a 1 lb. This was the driving factor for me getting back…

@ThilaM87 Yeaaa, pleased you didn't have the snacking urge! I had that urge instead of you, LOL, but I did the go to bed thing, and got through it. Likely because I was going to do a weigh-in this morning! :D @cerysr Hello and welcome to the reboot! You've just reminded me about work clothes, eek! I have been working full…

@ThilaM87 Yeaaaaa for us being Pals !!! <3 Well done for restarting and keeping going afresh today! The norm is to have one 'over calorie day' and then give up and think "I'll start again on the 1st of next month". Gosh, I'm trying to think of ideas. Well, keep yourself accountable with the snacks possibly? If you have an…

@Ava003 Hellooooo! Well done for curtailing the gain! I remember the first time I started logging the calories on here - it is a real eye opener as to why you aren't losing weight. Ava my big tip for you is spend your first week being militant in logging everything. Literally everything. The dollop of ketchup you put on…

@fairy_daisy I absolutely hear you! I feel like I can barely move at this weight. Last time I lost weight, I calorie counted and got half way to my target, then added in exercise. You've just reminded me of that, despite my recent swimming plans! So it sounds like we will both be doing the same for now - focussing on the…

@louisejen5918 With all sincerity, I think you've done a fantastic job! To have lost 5 stone, and ONLY had a...what...20% wobble on that during lockdown is frankly amazing. This period has been the strangest to contend with, even if people work from home and haven't seen much change in lifestyle (with their loved ones…

Does anybody else want to join in too? I'll check back to this thread once a day to see if we have any other rebooters!

@fairy_daisy My gosh we sound like we're in the same position! Ditto only on the logging to get me going, and am cutting calories. I honestly feel too heavy to even exercise at the moment - I had literally bought a new swimming costume to go swimming twice a week at the very moment Corona hit us :'( @louisejen5918 That's…

A minor success to laugh about... I logged in here for my second day :D A decent start to a long journey...

Logged back into MFP today, after a 5 year gap. I reached a target weight way back then, and then took my eye off the ball. Became a mum, got old etc. I'd like to start with 20lbs...but make it to 40lbs later this year. Current: 14st 11 / 207lb Mini goal 20th July: 13st 5 / 187 lb (ie 20lbs off) Goal: 12st / 168lb (I'm in…

Hey all, is this open to jump in late? (echo to Chrysalis above)? Logged back into MFP today, after a 5 year gap. I reached a target weight way back then, and then took my eye off the ball. Became a mum, got old etc. My solo efforts to get back on track have repeatedly failed - I've had a lifestyle change - hit by a…

Do you mind if I shoe-horn my way into this group please? I've been hiding behind closed eyes whilst my weight has crept up. Again. I've done well previously with MFP, and finding 'friends' in the forums, and am hoping to find that again after a 4 yr absence. CW - 207 GW - 168 (but clearly not just for June, lol)

Hi Both, I have reactivated my account today as am very frustrated at my lack of ability to motivate myself to even try at the moment. I did use MFP successfully in the past, so I think this may be the boost I need. I remember finding it helpful to connect with others on here before (we're talking about 4 years ago), so…

Your research link examines studies where people were taking it as a supplement (ie pill) to their normal diet. The OP is talking about replacing pasta with the product to lower calorie and carb intake in a like-for-like swapped meal. The meta-analysis specifically excluded any trials that included dietary interventions.…

I tried the spaghetti for the first time today. Only thing that was significantly different from pasta was the texture when chewing it (ie. I had no issues with having to wash it, or the look of it, nor the tastelessness of it). It had a weird texture when eaten, as it doesn't change into a puree when chewed (as most foods…
