  • I feel your pain! When I was younger I was the skinny one and my sister a lot bigger. Now roles have reversed and I'm way too overweight and my sister is probably skinnier than I was at my lowest weight :( feel free to add me, I am at the start of a long weight loss journey!
  • Same same same, 28 pounds off and now back on again, the journey begins again! Sending request!
  • Oh and plane seats, cinema seats, theatre seats etc. are feeling a little snug (thanks pear shape genes!)
  • When someone I don't know that well asked me if the could ask a personal question. I said: 'umm o.k?' They said: 'Do you want to lose some weight?' I said:(a little surprised!) Of course I do (can't deny whats obvious to see!) They proceeded to offer me advice on how to do it... and then said: ' you could be very good…
  • Please feel free to add me, have been on here, (for maybe the second or third try!) for about 2 weeks, but gaining, not losing, all support welcome!
  • Hi thanks for all the replys guys! Especially your very comprehensive one Ms_J1, I'll have to re-read and digest that one. I thought I would be notified by email of replies so just seeing them now! I'll keep working at it, think I need to break it down into baby steps and master one aspect before I move on, it's tough to…
  • Please add me - I'm back after along break!
  • Please feel free to add me - I'm back after a long break and more weight gain!
  • Hi there I'm thinking about running a half marathon in September. I already do 5k regularly but really no more than that, anyone got a realistic training programme for a slow plodder?
  • Bump Great info - thanks for the time and energy you put into this!
  • Add away!
  • Feel free to add me! Good luck!
  • Add me!
  • Congrats on the upcoming wedding! If you 're starting now, a year ahead at least you are going about it the right way and not crash dieting at the last minute! I'm new to this too - logging food is a real eye opener as to how many calories I can get through in a day without really thinking about it! So I'm hoping this…
  • Thanks Claire, I got the ticker! Yeah planks and push ups are my worst nightmare! I also did couch to 5k a while ago - its a great programme as I never thought I could run for 30 minutes, never mind 5! Sort of stuck at 30 minutes now but running with a friend and we are trying to push past that. I suppose I need another…
  • Who knew it was so easy to pick up some friends!!! Have added you all, cheers! Claire594 - hope the 30DS is going well for you and I hope you can tell me day 10 was easier than day 1! I looked at level 2 and there is some scary stuff in there but maybe after level one you feel ready for it??? BTW how do I get my ticker…
  • Another advocate of Couch to 5K here - and I'm about 228 pounds - its tough but oh so worth it when you find you can run for 30 mins.
  • All told my lunch was 631 calories...I could have had turkey and brie on a baguette for that! What gives, salads? LOL, I couldn't agree more!!! I may start with the intention of having just a salad but it always ends up being a salad sandwich as I need the carbs! I think its a carb thing, not a protein thing, and I…

  • Add me if you like - I've been doing this for about a week - so still early days for me - mutual support would be great!
  • Hi Ashleigh - I would like to respond to your friend request! I have just started this yesterday and its come as quite a shock how quickly you run through your calorie allowance! I'm not 5'5 and 180, more like 6' and 228 - but hey we both have the same goal at the end of the day! I managed to lose a stone in the last year…
