  • Yes, I need more friends to motivate me! I'm 30 in just over 4 months, this is my second real go at losing with MFP. Two years ago (almost to the day) I started an epic journey. I joined MFP in July 2012 after losing 5kg between April and July. I lost 20kg in 6 months when I used MFP, and I've only put 3kg back on. I hear…
  • It's harder now that we're heading into winter now Tan, I hate winter sweets. Well, I don't really, I love them, but I hate them because I want them all the time. I love Greek yoghurt with a bit of honey in it because we don't have any fresh berries in season. If you really wanted the berries though, I know that Woolies…
  • Agree with Contrarian. Eggs are disgusting. I eat them because I have to (great source of protein, I'm iron deficient), but I HATE them. Trying to give them love but I'll get through almost all of it and then want to gag.
  • Hola senorita! 28/F/Melbourne here, feel free to add me!
  • This goes against the grain of my regular username...I was incredibly boring and just used my first name and the initial of my surname. This is the ONLY account that I don't use my regular handle. Have no idea why though!
  • Wouldn't it be nice!? I've lost 11kg (4kg before MFP) (24lb, 9lb before MFP). My boobs have not gotten any smaller one iota. I've gone from an 18F (no idea what that is in US size) to a 14F. I have lost 1cm (just under half an inch) since I started recording (next record is tomorrow). My wonderful partner and I have…
  • I agree with Eric here, you have nothing to be sorry about! We're all in this together :happy: Well done on your journey so far, I'm sure that you will only continue to be cloaked in success!
  • Hola Senors and Senoritas! As my cousin who migrated to the Gold Coast many years ago would say, I'm a Mexican (because I'm south of the border!). I'm in the inner city beach suburb of Elwood, just next to St Kilda. Spent the first 25 years of my life in Geelong, but I love Melbourne and my life here too much to ever…

  • Ohhh please, take a bow! Eleven years of marriage, 'trained' or 'untrained' - YES! I too can relate to pretty much everything mentioned thus far. I'm carrying a debilitating back injury, so can no longer train and work out intensively like I used to. I get that people are trying to help me in my journey with their…
  • airmansxbabyg - you still got skipped :/ I'd say around 34/35
  • Alcoholism runs in my family: maternal grandfather and uncle. Growing up as a child, I always turned my nose up at having a sip of something to try it, I just didn't like the smell of it. When I hit 14, I had my first drink at a high school friend's birthday. It was okay, nothing special. Drinking was just never my thing.…
  • Oh so true!
  • Yay more Aussies! Feel free to add me =D I'm in Melbourne, a Victorian girl born and bred. Freezing this winter, bring on summer! And a big welcome to you!
  • I'm sorry that you feel like I am saying that I am sad and deprived or depriving myself of sugar. I agree, they're not an essential nutrient as you mention, but what I am saying is that, like with many others in this post it is about everything in moderation. (BTW I lost 20kgs pre-back injury and maintained until said…
  • Hells yes! People look at me when I say I'm really watching what I eat, they say things like "Oh, so you're dieting then?" Ah, no. I'm not. Why on earth would I deprive myself of all the things I enjoy eating!? Moderation is the key and if I want ice cream, I make damned sure it fits into my cals! I have a back injury so…
  • Hi! I've just joined too =) I'm 28 next month but no kids (yet!), hopefully we can help each other along the way!
