Motivation after a break-up?
Hey everyone, Has anybody been motivated to lose weight after a break up? My ex isn't a bad person and it's not that I want to show him what he's missing out on (Although I can't deny it wouldn't be great to bump into him down the track and look fabulous) it's more the fact I can't enjoy going out and being single as much…

Replacing my inactive friends
I've been on MFP for a loooooong time, but tonight I decided to do a cull of my inactive friends (friends who haven't logged on in over a month). And WOW! My list is now looking empty. Any takers keen on becoming friends? I've currently lost quite a bit of weight so I promise to be a decent addition and a good motivation…

There's no better motivation than your own wedding!
So I was just wondering if there are any other brides on here who can give support on who is/has lost weight for their wedding? I got engaged on Christmas Eve, my fiance and I have decided on a date that's just under two years away. I'm very confident I've got this, but hearing other people's stories is good motivation :D

So, I was always a chubby kid. I have lots of examples, but I'm going to just post one, because I was fifteen and it seems mean to pick on fifteen…

Usually it's me being completely vain and wanting to look great again and have the benefits that come with it.

Has anyone switched from weight classes to weight programs? What happened?
Hi everyone, For a while now I've been too scared to do real lifting by myself, so I've been doing Body Pump classes. I'm pretty happy with it and have definitely seen results, but I'm tired of having to stick to their timetables, and would much rather be able to lift when it suits me. (I know most lifters consider Body…

Has anyone lost weight and then put it back on?
So, the title says it all. Has anyone ever managed to lose a lot of weight in the past, but was unsuccessful in maintaining the weight and has ended up here?

I've done it before... let's do it again!
Hi everyone *waves* I was a very chubby kid, and when I was sixteen I lost over 20 kilos and got very thin. Unfortunately I slowly began putting it back on, until last year when I began to rapidly put on weight due to my father's death and a very bad relationship. I'm going to post on these forums a lot to get motivated,…
