Well said Amy. As you have said it "all adds up" and slowly does it.. You have done a fantastic job and the out come is reward for your dedication to your journey. Wishing you all the best and as much support as I can (cyberly) for the part of this journey. Go Girl.. :flowerforyou:

Travelchick, Stay with this. I know I am from Australia but it has been mentioned by my dietician and others as 'one of the better sites" to assist with weight loss.. Plan, commit and Believe and you will succeed. I have friends who have had the sleeve surgery (and if that is you in your profile photo - you would not…

I would love to be in this group, but not sure how I will go with logging on each day - going on past history. Maybe it will be a new year and a new organised me??? I can only hope. Anyway, I will leave it up to you. Cheers

I'm in. :) My challenge for this week will be twofold as I am going on Recreation leave at the end of week - is not to snack on sweet treats on my night shift tomorrow night, and to do 10 squats per day as well as the exercise program recently set out by physiotherapist for injury mobility. I will spend time tonight…

Sounds like a plan Elizabeth.. Catch you here soon. :)

Nice chart - You are blessed to have someone who knows charts.. lol I really tried hard as I knew this week I would be behind in every way with everything happening in the next two weeks.

Just seen this Elizabeth, I would love to be 'in'. Is it too late?

There is actually a MFP 5:2 diet group if you want to search. I don't do 5;2 all the time as I work rostered shifts that have a monthly set pattern and can be from 3.5 t o12 hours in length and not a regular day off every week but when I reach a plateau, I will sit there for 2 weeks and if nothing happens, I look at my…

On a sweet note - meringues (pavlova nests) filled with plain Greek yogurt (chabani) topped with segments of orange and strawberry and drizzled with chocolate (magic ice cream topping) Low fat, but sugar may add up with the meringue. No cream at all. Hot Chocolate range = **** Smith's hot chocolate and inexpensive

Thank you for sharing.. I tend to forget that in the moment.. xx

Hello Kasie, Good on you for choosing to do something about your life. Any change to improve health and wellbeing is worth every bit. Fantastic (clap, clap clap) for the 15 lbs already lost. You go girl. This is something you have control of and will win with patience, and dedication.. Cyber encouragement being sent your…

You burn 228.9 calories during 30 minutes of Water Aerobics. Found it in this site: http://www.self.com/calculatorsprograms/calculators/caloriesburned and the other one I use: http://www.bodyblitz.net.au/calculators/workout-calculator/ Hope these both help you.. xxx

Cath, It would be close to it I think.. You would use more muscle power walking than swimming.. For the counting of exercise cals, go with that, or otherwise Google it... It is not in the other workout calculator I use if MFP doesn't have what I want. Cheers Go Girl !!!

Toremiles: I am leaving this group. I am de-cluttering my computer and things I need to check. I often check and there is nothing added. I would love to hear how your wedding goes, about the dress and just be supportive to you if needed although you seem to have your plan and are motivated. If you would like to add me as a…

Toremiles I wish I knew. I don't know how to upload pics.... I wish I did, then I would help. Hope all is well, and you are having a good Easter. Roma

Motherof the bride, We found our little dog the following evening. A farmer noticed the flyers I had put up in the shop windows and phoned us.. and eventually we were able to coax her into coming for a chicken neck.. She is so timid and there were lots of banging noises dur to high winds and loose objects on his farm. She…
