Hi, I'm Mel, im in wellington and after a year of being pregnant and lazy i'm getting back into things :)

I can never understand why people who hate tattoos always have to voice their opinion about it! I have lots of them, most i love, 1 i don't like too much as it wasn't done correctly - i am now thinking about some stuff to cover up the bits that were done crappy. I don't regret getting it, i just regret that the tattooist…

I wouldn't mind some more friends either. I usually delete people that haven't logged in after a month, and that has been ALOT of people lately. I hardly get anything on my newsfeed now.

If your doing heavy weight lifting then your building muscle. You may need to switch up your cardio routine too. I notice you seem to eat the same types of food over and over. Can you change this? Try some new foods!

lol! you lot have made me crack up laughing THANK YOU!!!!!!!! Ok so sounds like i just need more air LOL I was so scared i might pop my tyres haha. Husband did pump them up more, but obviously not enough. I am so sore lol, i had to keep getting off and walking a little bit, its so much different than a gym bike hehe.…

There is also the very thin option too, a little thinner than sandwich bread.

Damn i forgot i joined this lol! But i lost 1.4kg last month :)

What an awesome achievement! The thing i noticed most about your pics is how genuinely happy you look, its not a forced smile, its a real smile. Congratulations and all the best for the rest of 2012!

at my doctors i weigh less. Dont know where you are from, but here in New Zealand, the scales are calibrated every year i think to make sure they arent out by heaps. And considering its doctors scales that weigh you for pre-op things i would damn well hope they are correct, as you get anaesthetic and some medicines by…

Wow that is amazing! You look very beautiful too!

Doing the correct stretches before and after working out. Building muscle helps, but is hard if you already have an injury. Use braces or strapping the affected area to help keep it in place while exercising. I get tendonitis in my foot, my doctor said take ibuprofen and make sure i stretch it out really well. It was so…

Starting Weight 112.6kg (Monday 9 January) Week 1 - xx kg (Monday 16 Jan) Week 2 - xx kg (Monday 23 Jan) Week 3 - xx kg (Monday 30 Jan) Week 4 - xx kg (Monday 6 Feb) Total lost - xx kg I weigh in on fridays though, but will log it on mondays.

My heaviest weight was 119.5kg I think thats about 250 pounds. My sister is a very big woman, when i saw the scales say that much i was like omg, this has got to stop otherwise im just going to get bigger. I already had health problems from my weight, sores hips and ankle, really bad chaffing etc. Im now 112.6kg Two years…

Just bumping this up, didnt realise we had a fb group :)

I prefer to do it alone. People annoy me when they talk lol! Im happy to have friends do stuff with me, but when im nearly dying because i cant breathe from exercise, the last thing i wanna do is have a conversation with anyone haha! I dont go to the gym anymore because of two reasons - not enough equipment available at…

I used to eat things because i didnt want to miss out, or waste it, or because it just tasted good. NOW though i think its because i have limited my portion sizes i feel the same way as you. Even when i have fallen off the weight loss wagon, i still tend to NOT overeat, simply because i CANT! your right a switch changes.…

I need to lose 110lbs i think! With support you can do it, also being honest with yourself really helps too! I have added some people already :) Feel free to add me too, i really need inspiration and friends that have similar goals to me!

WHY do you not like them? Taste, smell, texture, look of them etc. First you need to figure out what the problem is and then try and fix it. Some good advice in here already though. I wouldnt try to hide food as such, because you made it you will still know what is in it! And that could lead to psychological dislikes of…

Honestly i think alot of it is just a crock of ****! I mean there have been tests done on alot of products and they dont even contain what they say they do! Im sure there was a big hoohaa over fish oil capsules a few years ago. Yes some of these things work for others, but i wonder how psychological that is sometimes, like…

Hi everyone! I joined this group yonks ago, but never actually said hi! I joined in June this year, i have been up and down in weight, my highest was 119.5, my last MFP was 112.3, so ive burnt off 7.2kg! YAY. However, i fell off the wagon (stress, quit course, got married, had health problems) And i am back at 114.3, even…

Just went and looked at it. WOW, you honestly looked OLD in your before photo. NOW though you look like you should! Fantastic result! Well done on all your hardwork

I think we need each other!!!!! I too have the same problem, i will eat something, because im like, oh well, no one will tell me off! I need someone that is gonna be a straight shooter and tell me what i shouldnt have eaten and offer alternatives if possible! Im not sure how many pounds i need to lose, but i need to lose…

Thanks, that was helpful. with the bmi scale, if i was 50kg i would look weird! I have a large frame.

Wow you look awesome! This is how i hope to look by christmas!

If you are eating under 1200 cal then you are already in starvation mode, its not about 1 meal or how many hours between food. Tts about your eating habits, you are not eating enough. If you are not losing weight, you are storing energy - which you are then just burning off with your exercise, which i would guess is why…

You look ALOT younger now!

that is great, i cant believe how only 20 pounds makes such a huge difference!
