I have failed myself
I feel so lost and depressed. I initially joined MFP over 4 years ago and lost 130lbs but in the last year, I have regained most of it after developing a binge eating habit that I had never even suffered from when I was at my heaviest (over 300lbs) and I am trying to find the strength within myself to do so again. I miss…

19 months later!
Hi everyone. I'm not new here but I wanted to introduce myself since I thought maybe I could help with boosting your motivation...I'd love to encourage at least one person if I can. I started at over 300lbs a year and a half ago. I felt lost and depressed but I signed up to MFP and adopted a strict mind set. I decided that…

Question re Tesco (UK) spare ribs and keto
I got some Peking Spare Ribs from Tesco — I read the carb content, which said 1.3g per 100g. However, they came with a peking sauce to add to them. The sauce had no information re carbs etc and the box says that the carb content is 1.3g per 100g if prepared as instructed. The instructions included pouring on the sauce, so…

Keto UK
I’m based in the UK (Scotland) and have been struggling to find much good produce that suits doing keto. I went into Tesco to look for things I could use to add a little more variety into my diet. I’m happy eating lots of meat but wanted to find tings I could maybe use for trying keto recipes I’ve seen online. My question…

Beating the odds?
Hi everyone. I’ve been watching quite a lot of weight loss documentaries lately as a way to help with my motivation but there’s a common attitude I’m encountering; in several of them now, someone has said that people who have a significant amount of weight to lose, stand no chance in doing it without surgery. They were so…

Fashion Advice
Hi all. I can’t find a thread dedicated to fashion so thought I’d start one as I’m looking for advice and have no doubt I will do so again. What kind of flattering shoes suit a 5’3 female with quite thick legs? I’m still on my weight loss journey and I think my legs are naturally quite thick so not sure if they’ll still be…

Please join in
Hi all. I joined MFP just over a week ago and have been working very hard. I had been weighed at my doctor surgery and was utterly disgusted with myself so immediately joined up and for the past week and a bit, I have been doing very well. I’ve been watching what I eat and doing lots of exercise. I decided to purchase my…

My Ultimate Goals
I have many goals I wish to achieve in my journey. I have a ton of weight to lose (more than 100lbs) but I’m determined. I have so many interests and hobbies that I’ve not been able to do because of my weight — some purely because of feeling ashamed to be seen in public, such as swimming and most sports which I love;…

Pro biotics
Does anyone take probiotics? If so, what do you think of them? Do you think they have helped you in any way? I’ve read a lot about the link between gut health and depression and obesity so I’m curious as to what peoples’ experience of pro (and pre) biotics have been like. I personally have found them helpful in the past…

Greetings from Scotland.
Hi everyone. I’m new here. I have a LOT of weight to lose but I’m looking at it as an entire lifestyle change as this is a long term (the rest of my life) thing for me. A lifetime of bad habits is difficult to break but I know I’m capable of doing it. It would be great to connect with some of you for some encouragement. :)
