I want to be able to shave my legs in 2 minutes flat… I miss being able to do that… Of course, then I’ll have trouble shaving my armpits, but I can cope with that!

Okay, so a small amount of muscle weighs more than a similar amount of fat - you could easily be losing inches, instead of pounds, if you're lifting weights. Very cool progress pic honey!

That's me! I changed my diet to 1,250 calories plus anything I earn through exercise - and I'd try to get 10,000 steps a day or spend 30 minutes on my exercise bike. I also found that a diet which stuck closely to MFP's suggestions (50% carbs, 30% fat and 20% protein with plenty of fibre) was useful. Finally try not to eat…

in 85 pounds down Comment by kendalslimmer July 2016

I lost abou 80lbs before being diagnosed. I did sticking closely to 1200 calories per day and through exercise (a walk everyday). I tried to limit myself to 3 meals and an evening snack.

in The Terrible Tragedy of Tooting Your Own Horn Comment by kendalslimmer January 2016

Sometimes, when we're struggling, the trick is to do less. When I started out, I tried one new healthy habit every few weeks. First it was just me sticking to my calories and eating breakfast every morning, then it was me upping my fibre intake, then protein, then water. Finally I starting monitoring my steps and trying to…

But the challenge resets in October - so we'll advertise on the motivation forum again then (why not put a note on your calendar now for October 1st?). And there are plenty of other fun…
