What is it you're most looking forward to after losing the weight?
I'm looking forward putting on a swimsuit and go swimming, I have not done this in about 14+ years. I am extremely uncomfortable in my own skin. Also I'm excited about wearing a pair of shorts for the first time since I was a child. I always cover up my legs and arms and Its annoying when it's hot in the summer. Started:…

10lbs down 6 weeks later, great start 🙂
I didnt think it would work losing what I did as I used to count my calories but I would estimate my lunch as I always have the same meal every day as I enjoy it. And for dinner I just put what I want to eat on my plate as I purposely skip breakfast so I can have more for dinner as i LOVE my pasta and potatoes so i know…

Just ordered a fitness trampoline lol
I literally just thought screw it I'm ordering it because I love the idea or bouncing/jumping on one. I've seen people on YouTube etc using one. The one I got goes up to 17st + so that's good as I'm afraid of breaking it lol. Is there anyone who's heavy and uses one and had any success with them? I have social anxiety so I…

Scales not moving :(
Feeling a little deflated now. I am over 200lbs and I have started almost 2 weeks ago. I have lost 4lbs but nothing the last 5 days or so nothing has changed. It's like my weight has stalled. I am weighing my food and I can only have around 1200 which MFP recommends with lack of exercise. I have been keeping to this really…

I'm really stuck on what I should eat or cut out - diary is open
I would appreciate some advice for food I could eat. I'm just over 200lbs and I'm 5ft 3 so I have a fair bit to lose. Can someone give me ideas on what to eat. I am happy with my huge plate of salad as a lunch and won't remove that. But anything else I'm happy to change :)
-
Anyone recommend a fitbit?
Thinking of getting myself one so I can track calories burned and count steps etc. I heard ones that monitor heart rate is good? :)

This came to around 1000 cals. Seriously annoying if…
