Buy my meal replacement shakes and lose weight fast!! Woo alert!
Ok, the title is shameless click bait, but I really need to have a good rant with folks who are of a similar mind! I've spent the last year losing 63lb (so far, 14lb ish to go) and I have one acquaintance I see every Sunday. She's seen me lose weight, she knows how I've done it and she's asked me for advice. Now, she's…

Sharing the mfp wisdom
A couple of weeks ago I met up with an ex-colleague who last saw me when I was about 40lb fatter. Her first comment was "oh my god, you're tiny! What have you done!" And she wanted the full details on how I'd done it. The whole time we worked together she had tried several methods to lose weight but nothing really stuck.…

Deficit break/eating at maintenance.
I've been at a deficit for just under a year, lost 61lb and am only 12lb from my initial goal. I took a break last week and ate at maintenance, still logging but eating considerably more. I really wanted to see if I could do it, or if I'd just throw caution to the wind and revert to all my old habits as if I'd learned…

Celebrate with me!
Got on the scales this morning to see I now weigh 9 stone 13.75lb! (Uk user, so I think in stone. 1 stone =14lb) That's a total of 60.25lb lost since last July and the first time I've been under 10 stone in about 15 years! I also bought my first pair of uk size 8 jeans yesterday which is a huge deal for me as I hold much…

30 day shred
Anyone else doing this currently? I'm starting later today and I strongly suspect I'll find it tough and want to quit so I'd love to find some others who are doing it too - accountability really helps me! Philippa

False 'gain' on scales - hit me with the science!
I know there's lots of knowledgable folk out there and I need your help! I started 30 day shred a few days ago and I have seriously sore legs! My lower body really isn't used to that so I know that the 'gain' I saw on the scales this morning is water - I'm eating at a deficit and there's no way I've eaten enough for a…

Exercise DVD recommendations please!
Hi folks, I really need your input! I have Jillian Michaels 30 day shred (had it for about 5 years, never actually done it) but I would like to hear of any others that are either online or on DVD, that I could do in a fairly small TV room. Preferably something that is an all round workout for the whole body. Thanks in…

Here to shift the last 20lb
Hi folks, I've just started on mfp a few days ago - so far so good! I've lost 52lb since last July just by myself, no tracking or counting anything, but now I'm only about 20lb from goal everything has slowed down and I realise I need to pay attention to the details if I'm going to shift it! I've gone from a UK size 18-20…
