Making a change, looking for support
Hi all, I'm Roslyn, I've been on MFP before and it really helped me but then life got in the way. I got married, moved house, had a kid and a lot of things in between, so watching my weight kind of went by the wayside. Unfortunately, that meant that it crept up and up, especially after having my son, and I'm now the…

Wow, my stomach must have shrunk =s
I was doing so well! A colleague brought a big box of chocolates into the office today and I resisted, then I went out for dinner with my boyfriend and totally blew my calories for today =( In the end I didn't even enjoy the meal as I was full after the starter, but because I'd already ordered the main course I ate some of…

NSV
A couple of months ago I started going out jogging after work once a week with a friend. I'd never jogged before we started and previously could barely make it to the end of the street without feeling like I was about to die. Last night we went out for a 3km jog and I made it 1.2km before I had to slow to a walk for a few…

Progress!
I'm only down 17lbs so far and have a long way to go but I wanted to share my progress so far, if for no other reason than to motivate myself to keep going =) I realise the picture quality of the first two are bad but you can still see the difference in my face.

Chicken Broccoli Recipe
I just shared this to the database but since I don't think we can access them yet I thought I'd share it here. This is one of my favourite dishes! My Gran has been making it for me since I was a kid but she actually originally got the recipe from the side of a tin of Campbell's Condensed Soup. I usually have a portion of…

Help please - Motivation dwindling
Ok guys help me out here. I’ve been following the MFP plan for nearly two weeks now. I’ve stuck to my calories and only went over one day but worked back almost all of what I ate. I work out pretty much every day and I make sure to eat back most of those calories. In the first week I lost 1lb but it appears that this week…

Already seeing results!
I'm so excited. I've only been on MFP for a week and I'm already seeing a big difference. Apart from feeling better and having more energy now that I'm working out every day, last night I wore my favourite green top! Last time I wore it I couldn't get it over my hips so had to have it kind of bunched up which looked odd.…

What is a "cup"?
Can someone please help me out here. I keep seeing things referred to on here as being measured in "cups" and I don't know how much that is? Is it an American thing? I'm from the UK and all the recipes I've used in the past are measured in grams or ounces. Is there a standard conversion into grams? Any help would be…

Hi Everyone
Hey guys, my name is Roz, I'm 26 and from Glasgow in Scotland. I joined MFP on Monday so only been going for a few days but am already starting to feel a difference. I've had far fewer sore stomachs and my mood is much improved. My reason for joining: I've never been particularly happy with my weight, it's gone up and down…
