Two steps forward, one step back
I've been on MFP for quite some time and every time I lose a lot of weight, then gain some of it back - I have gained about 10lbs in the last six months and I am determined for this cycle to stop! I'm looking for supportive friends who can help me when I'm feeling like falling off the wagon - of course I will return the…

Bright coloured hair dye
I'm always dyeing my hair bright colours - people say my hair is never the same twice but I think they just see the bright colour and then the faded version to be honest :tongue: I was just wondering what brand of hair dye you guys prefer using? So far my favourite is Special Effects overall but I find it very much depends…

Another progress thread
Hi guys! I've lost 27 lbs and just done a progress pic, thought I would share: Please post your images too and let's motivate each other! These last few weeks for me have been filled with NSVs and have shown me that even though you might not see the changes immediately, they are happening and thought it might be tough,…

The opposite of an NSV?
Last Thursday I had a gig with my band and made the bad mistake of assuming I would fit into some of my old gig outfits now that I'm slimmer. I have lost a stone after all and that's quite a big milestone! I tried on my old cut-offs, managed to get them up and over my stomach, but would the button close? No chance! I tried…

Giving up the diet soda
I'm worried about the amount of coke zero I drink - it's at least 500ml a day, some days more. I don't generally eat any other foods with sweeteners in but I'm still worried about the amount of sweeteners I'm consuming given that they have a bad rep. So I want to give it up or at least reduce my intake but I'm finding it…

What to do when you don't meet your goal
I set myself a goal at the start of the year to lose 10 lbs by Valentines day. At first it was easy and I was losing 2 or 3 pounds a week so it seemed like I would lose 10 lbs and then some, but the last few weeks things have slowed down and I didn't make it. I almost did - I lost 9.6 lbs - and I am still pretty chuffed…

Exhuastion
Hi everyone, I've been going to the gym the last few days (for the first time in about three months) and watching my calorie intake too. Yesterday and Tuesday were great, I felt fantastic, but today has been awful - I've been feeling exhausted all day and just feel like I want to go to sleep. Does anyone know why this…

Time for a change
Hi everyone! I've been using MyFitnessPal for a while now but if I'm honest I wasn't really treating it too seriously. Lately I've been feeling worse and worse and as my stomach is getting bigger, moving around is getting more difficult and my clothes are getting much tighter. I'm starting to hate clothes shopping again…
