Starting over
Hi everybody, My name is Natalie, and I have been a member of this site for a while. However, I was recently diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnoea and have a few other health problems linked to my weight, and I've realised that this isn't the dress rehearsal. I only get one life, and I don't want to sound dramatic, but…

Slept in, now way behind on calories...
I slept in till lunchtime today because my sleep routine is way out of whack, but as a result I didn't have breakfast. Now my total calories for the day are only at 900cal, and it's getting near to bed time. Thing is, I don't feel hungry, and I don't really want to just eat for the sake of getting my numbers to 1200cal. I…

Starting again...
Hi everyone, I just wanted to make my intention to start over public. I've been on the site for a while, and I know how supportive the community can be, so I think I just wanted to admit out loud that it's time to start again. I'm the heaviest I've ever been (262lbs) and I'm noticing that my quality of life has started to…

Getting enough fibre
Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to get more fibre into my diet without dramatically ramping up the calories? Any low cal, hi fibre options? x

To weigh(t) or not to weigh(t)
Hi there, I've sort of fallen off the wagon the last two days in that I have consumed over my allotted calories - I ate quite a lot of chocolate last night, and had a big Chinese lunch today (but nothing else). I weighed myself today and I have lost 4.6lbs from last Sunday. But, I'm afraid that is going to be negatively…

'Intuitive Eating' drop out - really struggling!
Hi everyone, I've been a member of MFP for a while, though I've yet to have any long runs of unbroken recording. As the title of this post suggests, for a while I dabbled with the tenets of intuitive eating (you know the drill, eat when hungry, eat what you want, stop when full) - I listened intently to all the different…

Last supper eating averted!
I just wanted to share a wee moment of triumph I had there. I have resolved to start my diet again tomorrow after falling off of the wagon (and under the wheels) over the Christmas and New Year's period. Normally what happens when I say I am going to start a new diet I binge the day before, kind of like a final farewell to…

How to Stay Motivated
Hi all, Apologies if this is already covered in another thread, but I just wanted to ask all you seasoned MFP veterans; how do you stay motivated? I'm currently flush with excitement and energy and optimism (I'm beginning anew), but I find my motivation starts to falter after a while. Any tips? x

Hello! 110lbs to go...
Hi everyone, I just wanted to say a quick hello and introduce myself. I'm not sure if I did when I joined the site originally, but I feel now that I want to be fully committed, so here's another hi, just in case! I have 110lbs to lose and I am following the NHS 12 week plan. Myfitnesspal is proving to be enormously…

Hello everyone!
Hello, I thought I would take a wee minute to introduce myself. I've been hanging around the forums all week, reading people's posts, being enthused by their achievements, and learning things about this journey I am about to go on. I wanted to say hi and thanks to you all for being such a friendly, involved community! I…
