I love this idea-in fact I might do that. For every 1lb lost I might get a pebble and for every stone (14lbs) I lose-I will find a bigger one and maybe make it glittery. I can have these in a vase as a visual reminder of how much I have achieved. :) JUST WONDERFUL xx

...get a cone of chips and then a large bit of fish-eat the fish and only have a quater of the batter-the fish cooks by steaming inside the batter so it's not that terrible really.
-
These are all really good tips-I really like the idea of photos of people that look good. I might even include my 'fat' pictures. I am filled with a bit more confidance today-I haven't opened the alluring goodie drawer yet and don't have room in my calories to do that either-not even for one (which would only be 80…
-
Me too-I should do more work but eating is much more fun.
-
just on the outside thank goodness. Lots of friends and family in the areas (and the Met Police). Worrying times indeed. :(
-
The problem is that people want a quick fix or to be able to eat what they want and get the perfect body. It might work in initially but many studies have shown that diets such as Atkins reduce weight just as quickly as following a low fat/kcal diet. For me, I’d rather do things sensibly. I have a rare form of liver…

I totally understand-I did my degree in Nursing (psych) and remember it all too well-not practising at the moment though and its never easy. In fact-I wish I had taken control of things way back then-it was at university that I put on most of my weight. Still-no time for regrets-there is work to be done and no time like…
-
Why thank you-I wish I could say I grew it myself but alas-it is a stick on one. ;) I got the gold medals for limbo and (I think I took two because I am natually greedy by nature).

I was so happy that I cheered when I got on the scales this morning. 3.5 lbs down this week-taking me into the 170's. :) :) :) Happy, happy, happy! I have a meal at my parents this weekend for my mum's birthday-which will require planning. Thankfully, my parents are ultra supportive and will pander to any diet whim I may…
-
I have had a pretty good week-my weigh in day is tomorrrow morning so I'm hoping to have a decent loss. My aim is to get out of the 180's-here's hoping. I have a fairly busy day planned so hopefully that will help me not think about naughty food. Yesterday was brilliant-I had a massive clear out (which included lots of…

Crazy pink picture now in place. I think I lot hot with facial hair. ;)
-
It's Friday (YES!). I have a weekend without plans (de-cluttering my life this weekend whilst my boyfriend and housemates are away-lots of old, fat, ugly clothes to give to charity) which means I am going to be super amazing all weekend long. I really hope to get out of the 180's this week and into the 170's-which would…
-
I have them too....I look at them as badges of my achievement. I just remember what it was like to see them forming-now they are silvery. I find that fake tan helps to cover them up-use it all over your body otherwise you'll have a darker tummy that will look odd indeed. Seriously though-I don't know a single girl that…
-
Well done guys-keep it going. I don't know what got into me today-after very carefully planning everything I got and blow it with a chocolate bar, then I get offered another (little treat size) pack of buttons, so I have that too. I now don't have enough calories for the dinner I had planned so I'm going to have to try and…
-
Welcome, I haven't been a member all that long but I have had nothing but support (and developing a little bit of an addicition to MFP). Its an excellent step to take-we are all on our way to a brighter future. :) xx
-
Good day three for me team-hope you are all doing well. I haven't been over at all yet and still feeling focused and driven. Failure isn't an option anymore. Happy day four. xx
-
Sarah, you sound in the same place as me. How much further have you got to go? I have lost 40lbs too. Let's motivate the flab away together. :)
-
I feel your pain. I had a bad weekend-well four days-I put on 2lbs because if it. As a result of being super healthy and going on a binge I have been getting headaches for the past two days. I'm keeping myself really high on water to get rid of the waste. It is hard, but having lost a fair bit of weight myself, it's best…
-
Firstly, well done. I know its so tempting when you have been good but weighing yourself once a week is the best plan-same time every week and under the same conditions. Best of luck. :) xx
-
Oh an by the way ..... I am 5' 7" (medium build) I weight 182 lbs I'd like to weigh 172 lbs by the end of the 5 week challenge-but would love more. I'm going to try to really up my water, do some form of excercise daily (injured atm so will be walking mostly but I will try to use my car less and my legs more.) and stay…
-
Thanks for this-I decided myself to have a really kick-*kitten* August and would love some support/to help support other people. I'm not sure I'll be able to hit 15lbs in 5 weeks but I am up for trying my hardest (I have 32 lbs to go-so that would be half the weight I'd have to loose pretty much-and I have a sky diving…
-
Thanks Very much :) x
-
I don't think foods should ever be banned-it makes it become something you crave and want even more. For me, I just try to balance things out. I used to follow Slimming World (where Iost most of my weight) where you can eat as much rice and pasta as you like-provided that you eat 1/3 of your diet with fruit and veg. Its…
-
Good luck-it's taken me until 10:56 am (Im in the UK) to actually notice its now August. This has given me the idea of starting my own August challenge. Starting with a walk after dinner tonight. :)
-
I wish I could do things like that-I need my food-I go crazy without a good old chew. Best of luck. xx
-
I have experienced this from both view points. I was in a very comfortable realationship with my high school boyfriend, Luke. He was always on the chunky side but as we went though university together not only did our brains expand but so did our waistbands. I put on about 54 lbs in our relationship (he put on about 70) I…

Totally inspired by this-I am def going to have this done WHEN I get there. You look so amazing. I plan to put an amazingly sexy photo of myself when I get to target and stick it on the fridge next to a horrid top weight photo. I think seeing the two images together will put me off ever just tucking into food for the sake…
