You have come to the right place:)Plenty of great advice and some truly inspirational peeps here. Don't forget to take pics and measurements to keep yourself motivated. Good luck;)

Congratulations:) Never forget to believe in yourself,and know that you can do whatever you set your mind to.Your progress is simply the proof and certainly the beginning of what your truly capable of:) Again,Well done and keep it up!

If its a workout day for me I plan my meals in advance so I know that I will be close.Your already running on a deficit or should be(if your attempting to lose)so you dont want to not feed the muscles/body.Mfp sets the goals so we can hit it,with the deficit already in play plus your adding on top its truly not good for…

I use ae sports active 2,hrm and motion sensors,is like a circuit training with resistance bands,can be difficult but seeing results.

Promite is my favourite.

Perhaps get her to join mfp?Get her comfortable and accepting that shes not alone,it is hard work and that you are deeply worried about her.Plenty of fantastic people on here going through the same thing so perhaps if she can get to know them via this site it may help her adapt to a new lifestyle.

My mother is a very old fashioned English lady,never ever seen without her make-up and hair done.She said it was a mark of disrespect that she did not look her best regardless of who saw her.On another note,she raised us to treat our skin with the utmost care from young girls,clean,moisturize.remove make-up correctly; the…

1320 recently up from 1200,I was struggling to stay around the 1200,always blowing it by tonnes and always hungry so i changed to less loss per week,eat my exercises and blow out perhaps once a week big time.Still losing.Is a rare day I go under.200 plus over without exercises.

Cardio,taken me quite awhile but I found no amount of situps etc did anything to my belly,it stayed there.I altered my workouts as I got nearer to my goal,upped the cardio and low and behold,its shrinking!Belly is fat,cardio burns fat so you gotta get your body to eat your belly:)

Well done,very proud of you!

No dramas here either with mine,bit of cramping,sex drive took a little dive but no weight gain as i was big before it went in.

Heya,am 5ft 2,was 84.5 now 60,Im an aussie living in Nz.Feel free to add me even though im almost at my goal weight I know how hard it can be and will be remaining with mfp.My weight or the 20 odd kilos has come mainly from my thighs,butt and middle.From perth,been here just over a year now.

your body will eventually burn your belly,I say eventually;)taken me yonks for mine to start shrinking,everywhere else went first now finally as im nearing closer to my goal ive upped my cardio and it seems to be working,it has changed shape and is getting smaller.

I do,I walk mine for 30 and log it as moderate walking dog.I try to speed up at some points so I feel ive done enough to log the speed as ive no idea if im going fast enough usually;)

Is it a new banana?coz new bananas are hard,older ones tend to be errr soft...

Lol im the same but I figure if im jumping around like a tool im still jumping around and burning calories.

My partner and I generally cook together with meals.One to 2 nights a week he can eat what he likes,the rest its meals ive organized as healthy is good for both of us.We adjust the portion sizes for both of us,him alot,mine weighed etc.Has taken me a fair few months for him to understand how important my health is to me…

In response to leigh,my little sister had similar (breast) she had 2 kids and was never happy with her figure.Again she went with my mum and half sister(yea family thing:P) to thailand.Her boobs are perfect,they came from under her armpits to put them in so scarring is almost invisible,they look and feel real.Having said…

My mum had one perhaps a year or 2 ago.She was in pain for perhaps a good 4 months after,a little stiff as the skin was very tight.She is over the moon with the results.She went to thailand to have hers done,couldn't say enough things about the hospital,doctors and treatment.On a personal note,they remade her belly button…

I make my own,protein powder,lite cottage cheese,splenda,trim milk and either frozen berries or banana.Very cheap.If I want more consistency i add either ice cubes or if my calories allow ; yoghurt.I know you asked for pre made,i used to use them till I found ideas on here for homemade.

Im an industrial cleaner,massive heavy high powered hoses,constant scrubbing and heavy lifting..anywhere from 4 plus hrs a day.I log it if i so feel like it.Its hard work,bloody hard work.

Im so going to sound like my mum here:)Some things are meant to be,she is a firm believer in everything we do if we take positive lessons from it then that is a step towards being healthy and most importantly happy.Turning around perhaps 5 to 10 maybe more years down the track and saying 'okay,i knew this should have ended…

I make my own using protein powder,lite cottage cheese,trim milk,vanilla essence and if i want a thicker one i use yoghurt,ice blocks or if im feeling indulgent frozen berries or banana.I add equal or splenda.So id say basic would be trim milk,protein powder,vanilla essence,splenda and some ice. If im in mood for super…

Generally here I keep my opinions to myself but 950 a day with a day of eating 127??I can appreciate you may wish to lose weight but there is a line to draw to be healthy,perhaps do some reading on what you body NEEDS to survive?127 for a day is dangerous.Nuff said from me. Mine was 1200 but I was getting so tired I upped…

nope I do it quite often,I just buckle down and get back into it the next day.I dont beat myself up about it,i just carry on:)

Skipping dinner now and then i see.I have a big breakfast,300 to 400 calories,then lunch and good healthy dinner.Im not sure what the Kellogg thingies are(im an aussie) but some-days your barely giving your body any fuel to start the day.I found (for me)the better the brekky the more consistent my loss.I also try to not…

Im on wow break at the moment and trying out EQ2,its another one that requires a helluva lot of commitment.I do know that a star wars one is out soon,lots of peeps talking about it,may be worth a look,at this stage im unsure of the commitment required for it though.Ive tried abp reloaded and that's actually not too…

/wave and good luck:)Come to the right place,stick with it and you will get results:)
