This. Couch to 5K might be easier to start with.

Unless I lived pretty far away from the gym I would never get on a bus or get a ride (I can't drive ha ha) I just think it goes against the whole point for me, but I do have a lot of spare time right now and can understand those who are in a bit of a rush to get there. Takes me about 30 minutes

^^ This! Please never think it's your fault because it's not. There are a lot of bad people in this world and sadly you have one with you, but it is not your fault I can guarantee.

Not the evil or toxic part, because I agree but the assumption at the beginning she may have a personality disorder which would link to the evil and toxic comment

I find this very offensive. I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and depression and I can tell you now, I am neither evil, nor toxic. I am getting rather tired of these silly stereotypes that mental illnesses = crazy messed up people, because that whole presumption seems crazy to me. Someone does not have…

Hey welcome to the group =) I've lost 44lbs and a lot thanks to this website, just stay with it and you will reach any goals you set for yourself. Feel free to friend request me.

Nice =)

Oooh naughty?

Thank you so much! This is exactly the advice I needed! I don't mind having cellulite, just needing to make it less obvious ha ha. This has really helped me. Hopefully in a years time I'll have a guy to spank it for me ;)

I might have a look and try again, just don't want to waste my money like last time =(

Just tried a few in the past and they never really worked for me =/

Thanks for the advice and confirming I should be doing those evil deadlifts ha ha. Not sure if I have confidence to go to a masseuse just yet since I'm really shy about that area but I'll try and build up the courage sometime.

Thank you both for the advice, I'll try to start bringing weight lifting into my routine. Would it be good to do things like dead lifts and squats with them?

I accept I will have dimples there all my life, just hard to love it right now ha ha. I'll get there though. Thanks for the advice =)

I'm going to be working out and already worked out what calories I should be consuming tomorrow, luckily will be on target while still enjoying all the yummy food

Nah, doesn't need counting, face it you burned calories by walking around, mixing and making ;)

Maths time! (always makes me feel better if I see a rise on the scales ;)) You gained 8 lbs is 2 weeks A lb of fat is 3500 8 x 3500 = 28000 28000 divided / 14 (days) = 2000 Now unless you haven't been counting your calories right and have been consuming around 4000 calories a day, there is no way this is weight gain…

I would recommend going to a pharmacy where they usually have scales that will measure body fat levels and they are usually pretty accurate. You should be able to keep an eye on it. Or try http://www.bmi-calculator.net/body-fat-calculator/ Might not be as acurate but it's an idea of where you are right now. I personally…

^^ this! When you start a new regime of increasing exercise it tears the muscles (not dangerous like it sounds) and with the way they heal (which helps muscles strengthen and over time grow) they retain water to help them along the way. I personally think 1200 calories may be a little low as from past experience I suffered…

Someone who is adventurous

9, lost a point because I'm envious of your tiny waist!

Sweet kind hearted girl

Just wanted to say hey from a fellow UK girl! congratulations on the loss already! That's a fantastic job so keep up the good work and welcome to MFP!... also sorry for the over usage of !!!!!!!'s ha ha

As someone with depression and borderline personality I often found myself lacking energy and motivation, but instead of resorting to chemically produced pills (even the "natural" ones) I just got of my butt and forced myself to do it. Since I started it's helped improve my mental health and I have a lot more energy. So…

I've thought about this already and decided to wait to start swimming again till February, especially considering the pools already difficult to swim in with people already! However, I do hope for their health that they can keep it up, just want them to calm down fast on going every available time =/

5'5 (and a half XD) Highest weight 183lbs, current weight 138.4lbs and my goal weight is somewhere around 125 but depends on how I feel along the way, if I'm toning up then I could stop earlier.

Anything that makes me eat all in one. I never say I can't eat certain foods since I allow everything in moderation, but if it makes me eat more than one, it's goodbye to that!

Your new intake definitely sounds better =) On 1200 you're more likely to get hungry which can lead to overeating and if your body is anything like mine you can find it hard to lose weight. I plateud for months on 1200 and it was bringing me down. Upped my calories and what do you know, a week later I started losing the…

I found my birthday twin! Jan 5th

I thought being a normal woman was about having a vagina and mammary glands (doesn't matter if your ladies are large or small) ... well I was wrong obviously since it's all about weight. I myself seem to fit into your "normal" category, but this has just demotivated a lot of women here and a little insensitive.
