And I arrived.... [pic]
So, it's been a long time coming. Deciding to post success photo's came after something of a radical realisation earlier today from comments other MFPers left me in the Motivation boards. I'd been upset that after making so many positive changes (especially recently) that I wasn't seeing any movement on the scales. Through…

Help me through those last 4lbs
Hey all, I've posted a few topics on here recently along similar lines, but I'm still struggling and could do with some help. I am now 4lbs from my goal of 140lbs. The last 10 have definitely been very slow, which I expected and am fine with. But I really feel these last 4 are killing me. I'm working really, really hard.…

The Final Sprint
Hey! I am excited because I have 3.75lbs to go to get to goal! I really want to get there by Christmas, but like a lot of people I've noticed it getting a lot harder the closer I get to the ever elusive end point. So, I thought I'd start a thread to ask my fellow MFPers - what are your tips for those final couple of…

Losing it (and not in a good way)
Hey all, So I'm not sure what's up with me, it's maybe just that I'm having a bad week but I'm just not sure what to do about it. I'm 5lbs from goal at the moment, and for the last three weeks I have *not* been able to get the scale to shift. I'm feeling pretty crappy about that, but more about myself too. I remember…

Building muscle/lowering body fat
Hey everyone, I've moseyed along so far on my weight loss journey in the middling range of exercise. I do a fair bit of brisk walking during the week, and one intense two-hour taekwondo session a week. Since I started the taekwondo in June, I've noticed a great improvement in my fitness and strength, but I want to take…

I'm always hungry!
I've been on MFP for a while and am now only 5lbs from goal, which is great. I know the last 7lbs are meant to be the hardest, and I'm certainly finding that. My daily calorie allowance is 1290 calories, with at least 4 30-minute work outs a week. I do my best to stick within my allowance but I am finding recently that I…

Goal Weight
Hey! Let me give you a little background. I'm currently 146lbs (10st 6lbs), down from my all-time high of 165lbs (11st 11lbs). I'm down 1-2 dress sizes (depending on where I shop) and have gone from a 34FF to a 30D. In the last three months, I've lost 13", giving me a total inch loss of close to 20" since I started losing…

26 Days
Hi All, I've been using MFP for a while, but the last 2-3 weeks have been hellish in my personal life, which has meant any eating plans have gone right out the window! But, today I'm marking as the day I got "Back on the Wagon". So, I'm setting myself a challenge. In 26 days, I go on holiday. Not anywhere fancy (it'll…
