First major NSV!
I went to see one of my all time heroes, Patti Smith, in the summer of 2010 and my girlfriend bought me a shirt from the show. I usually wear guys/unisex shirts since I like the fit better than women's but they had run out of all but large women's size. It has been hanging up in my wardrobe literally since the day of the…

Anyone else on a plateau too scared to up calories?
Hi Guys, This may sound a bit warped but I've been doing MFP for almost 7 months now and lost 29lbs. I've been cycling around between the same 5lbs for about 8 weeks now. I'm 5ft 6" and my goal is to lose at least another 14lbs. I'm on 1350 calories a day and do an hours walk every morning which gives me an extra 217. I do…

I am over halfway - we can do it!
Hello everyone, I just wanted to try and encourage anyone who has started this journey and is finding it tough to keep going. I started MFP at the end of September 2011 with a total of 47.7lbs to lose. I saw it as a never ending journey to begin with and it was tough changing my lifestyle completely. It was true for me…

My very first NSV!
I've been doing MFP with my girlfriend for two months now and lost 13lbs in total. I hadn't really noticed a huge amount of difference with my wardrobe feeling 'looser' but I tried on a shirt that she bought me just now and I am so excited I just had to share it! I'd worn it once in about a year because I was too…

Hi all, Just after a bit of advice, I am starting a new job and need to be measured and fitted for my uniform on Monday. Been really excited about starting this job for a while, however, the uniform takes about 8 weeks to come in and so far I have lost 8.8 pounds during my 30 days doing MFP so far. I wanted to look really…
