Congratulations, you look great :smile:

Welcome to mfp, I'm impressed by your motivation, I know you can do it! Add me as a friend if you like:smile:

Hahaha! Well done!

I have 4 children (7, 5, 3 and 1) and for me it's a matter of aiming for as many different exercise time slots as possible and hoping that at least a majority of them actually happen! So for example: early a.m. if possible, depending on baby's feed times and husband's work schedule, I go for a run (usually manage 2 or 3…

You can add me!

I have 4 kids so I often end up doing crazy things like working out at 11pm at night. It's not ideal but I'd rather do that than not exercise at all:)

I love the fact that you inspired someone else, and that is encouraging you even more - it's a circle of positivity!! And the tumble drying tip is very funny (think my legs might be too long for it to work for me, but great idea!) Good luck with your weight loss, and feel free to add me if you want :happy:

Wow - great goal. I've sent you a friend request - I could use the inspiration!!

Welcome - I will send you a friend request:happy:

Well done, you are off to a great start!

Done:happy:

I'm not in the North East but if you want another UK friend, feel free to add me!

Hello! Will send you a request...

I had never heard of HRMs before I joined this site either. I live in the real world... I have no idea if they work well or not but I can't afford one, so that's that. Estimates are good enough for me right now - I'm losing weight, that's what matters. Good luck:)

Welcome! You can add me if you like:smile:

Yes, low-carb would be better. Think there are some long-term health issues with cutting out carbs altogether. Good luck and I'm sorry you are having a rough time.

I am breastfeeding but my baby is over a year, so I don't worry too much - I certainly seem to be producing plenty of milk, without eating loads of extra calories. I aim to keep my calorie count reasonably low through the day, with sensible portions of low-fat food (3 meals and 2 snacks) and then in the evening after he…

Thank you for sharing this - I found it very inspiring!

Brilliant!

Yes that is funny, but also brilliant! When I read this, I had to do a double take, because the exact same thing happened to me this morning. I went for a run, in some old tracksuit trousers which have fitted fine for a long time, until a couple of months ago. I hadn't worn them for running for a while, just for DVD…

Good morning to you too! I'm feeling good as well, despite the weather. I think I'm still on a high from my Zumba class last night! Hope you have a great day xx

Hello, well done for getting started, I hope this site will really help you, I'm sure it will! Feel free to add me if you like:)

Good luck, you can add me if you like:)

Welcome and good luck. I've just been doing this for a few weeks and it is definitely helping!

Can you have it once a week and look forward to it? Or would that be harder than not having it at all? You need to find out what works for you!

Yes, there's a difference - well done - you look cute and happy in the recent one!

You can certainly make a noticeable difference in 3 weeks. I've so far lost 18lbs in 6 weeks, of which I lost 10.5 in the first 3 weeks. I tried zumba for the first time last night and I agree with the previous suggestion, I think it is particularly good for the waistline! Good luck and feel free to add me if you want.

Good luck - you can do it!!

Welcome and good luck! Feel free to add me if you like:)

Hi, welcome and good luck. Feel free to add me if you want. I'm in (greater) London!
