That is exceptionally inspiring...I was feeling pretty "blah" this morning and this was the kick up the backside I really needed to get this thing going! Congratulations gorgeous lady :)

I agree - if you want to stick to this then there needs to be some degree of comfort in your eating plan. If that means upping your calories and losing 1.5lb a week instead of 2lbs per week it'll be worth it as you'll see better results in the long run, and feel considerably less restricted (a.k.a miserable). Plus, if you…

Mornin' everyone - I am currently living Norfolk, born in Huddersfield and grew up in London! Everyone please feel free to add me if you like, it'll be nice to have some friends in this time zone :smile:

I run a company producing animated video content for marketing/advertising purposes...me and my lovely little creative team build cartoons all day :smile:

I'm doing Keto for now...though I will be switching to IIFYM in the not so distant future - but feel free to add me if you like :)

Add me! I've been pissed off and on here solidly for 12 days and I think it's working!

I 100% agree with Gale - I went cold turkey 11 days ago and now I am starting to come out of the other side feeling so much better. It was hard but I think it's the only way I could manage it - I know it doesn't work for everyone. I have been eating high fat (cheese, heavy cream, deli meats, peanuts/peanut butter etc) to…

It's because your macros (protein/fats/carbs) are calculated as a percentage of your daily calorie allowance, so whilst they are displayed in grams they will increase as your calorie allowance increases according to the app. The only way to keep them consistent is by not logging any calorie deviations (i.e. exercise…

Hi Brooke - I'm back here on MFP trying to lose quite a bit of weight, feel free to add me and I'll cheer you on too :smile:

I'm doing exactly the same thing! Add me if you like ladies, I will certainly be logging every day :smile:

Hey mswashington1901, you're right - a friend of mine always says "scales are for fish"...lol!

1BuzyMomma - let's do this! I can help by checking in on you and I'll give you a nudge if you're not tracking :smiley: MKEgal - 70lbs would be hugely helpful too (I'm 213lbs now). I am not afraid of exercise - I did a round of Insanity last year and I have just started lifting (3 days per week) and running (3 days per…

I've added you as a friend Brandi!

I completely agree...I'd like to have achieved a large amount of weight loss by the summer as when I looked back at myself in a swimsuit last August I looked like a sack of potatoes - That definitely has to change!

• Log everything on MFP every day for 365 days • Drink 2 litres of water every day for 365 days • Control my addiction to sugary foods • Learn to run a 10K (I used to be able to run them) within 3 months, then run 3 times per week for the remaining 9 months • Learn to do a set (at least 10!) of full push-ups (no knees) •…

So inspirational - a brilliant post and huge congratulations to you. Enjoy your run! :smile:

I just joined :) Startin' on Monday...

For me my 'evening thing' at the moment is sugar free gum. It's not nearly as satisfying as the huge bag of pretzels I would like to be eating, but it keeps my mouth moving and tends to distract me from eating anything else!

I have been diagnosed as B12 deficient and so I have B12 shots on a monthly basis. It definitely hasn't helped in my weightloss but it does make me more mentally engaged and I ache less after any exercise I do.

Treadmill walking is awesome! I work from home and 3 days ago I started "walk-working" by putting a plank of wood across the treadmill bars and resting my laptop on there. I now do my job and manage to walk 10 miles per day - I am over the moon :)

I use coconut oil - I like the extra flavour it gives and they come out nice and golden :)

Absolutely amazing - you're all such an inspiration...I can't wait to have a success story too :)

What a great topic, I have enjoyed reading everyone's journey - kickstarters. I've had a number of last straws: 1. NONE of my clothes fit. I have 1 pair of VERY stretched-stretch jeans and a couple of very stretchy t-shirts. I am 32 years old, I don't want to dress like this. 2. I weigh 20lbs more than my fiance, and he's…
