Hi!
I don't want any of my RL friends to know I'm dieting but I know I'll do so much better with support - if anyone's looking for MFP friends then please add me - spt1983
Thanks!

Hi! Just added you Smile
Been on mfp for a few weeks now, lost quite a few lbs at first but have lost motivation and the weight's going back on.
My biggest issue is that whenever I diet I can't stop thinking about food Blush Even though I haven't got any unhealthy food in the house I just end up eating so many tiny snacks before bed that it all adds up!

clpsmum · 04/01/2016 21:28

I've just added you. I started my diet today Confused

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 04/01/2016 23:19

I've started back on it today.

Did really well last year and lost over a stone. Unfortunately I put it back on and a bit more so need to get back in to the groove.

Started at the gym today too, quite enjoyed it actually.

I'm lozC80

I've added you Smile

EverythingisonmyMurtaughlist · 07/01/2016 10:53

I'll be setting this up later once I've weighed myself at the gym later. The app is downloaded and ready to go. I definitely need motivation to keep me going but I don't want to really discuss it with my (thinner Sad) RL friends.

LemonBreeland · 07/01/2016 10:59

How do I add people? I need some friends on there. Lost about 10lbs last year using it then stalled. Put it back on and now needto sort myself out and lose the 4 yo baby weight.

LemonBreeland · 07/01/2016 11:05

I've figured it out, will add you all.

EverythingisonmyMurtaughlist · 08/01/2016 14:55

How do you add people using their username? Mfp is asking for email or facebook? My username is theonlyweighisdown

twinkle183 · 09/01/2016 10:47

Morning girls!!! Add me.... Same name as here!!! I have done mfp before and it worked great then I gave up and I put all the weight back on plus more.... Sad!! I have about 20kgs to lose! I am on 5ft 3ins and 74kgs and feel completely uncomfortable in my own skin! So here we are 2016 and I refused to be this big this time next year so it's time to do something about it!!! Smile

Good luck girls xxx

NewYearNewNickname · 10/01/2016 17:34

I'd like some mfp friends too please. My name on there is PeasandCucumbers. I'll go and see if I can add those of you whose names are on here Smile

AnnieOnAMapleLeaf · 10/01/2016 23:56

Please add me too! scashmore1978

AnnieOnAMapleLeaf · 11/01/2016 00:06

MFP has estimated my daily calories as 1640. This seems very high to me. I'm reasonably sure that my daily calorie goal last time was around 1200.

Theonlyweighisdown · 11/01/2016 06:28

How active are you? Has it maybe factored that in? I'm 1200 but I have put that I am sedentary as I am desk bound during the day.

LemonBreeland · 11/01/2016 10:36

I will add more of you. Don't want to say my name on here as it is identifying, it has children names in.

twinkle183 · 11/01/2016 16:32

Thanks for the add girls!! I am off on nightshift shortly and I am so not looking forward to it at all!!! X keep going girls xxxx

MummySparkle · 18/01/2016 08:54

I've just added you all. I have 3st to lose until I'm healthy, and then another 1st until I'm at my ideal weight.

I'm running towards size 10 jeans!

MummySparkle · 18/01/2016 08:55

Oh I'm sparklejulia on there. I don't have any of my RL friends on there either. Everyone else is much thinner Sad

Anothercrackatit · 28/01/2016 15:21

I hope it's ok I've sent you ladies requests, I'm trying again and all my old friends (bar 2) are as inactive on MFP as I've been! I'm scamperooney.

RhubarbCrumbled · 28/01/2016 15:36

I've just added all of you on MFP! So if you get a request from sallybunny2, that's me.

I've been losing and gaining the same 2lbs for the last few months and really need to sort myself out as I actually have a stone to lose which I could have done by now. Gym tonight...

MHarper · 18/02/2016 21:12

Adding you Smile
I'm struggling to keep to my calorie limit, hopefully it'll help seeing other people do it and loosing weight.

CamdenTownie · 19/02/2016 10:46

Hi I'm also using MFP - 1200 calories a day, I've only just started on Tuesday but not finding it too difficult right now, hope it's ok to add the user names on here!

cheesecheeseplease · 06/04/2016 15:04

I've just added lots of you, am just starting I have about three stone to lose completely but aiming for two in the next nine weeks Shock. Have a holiday then X

MalcolmFucker · 08/04/2016 13:18

I will add you all if that's ok, could do with the support

BowieBaby · 08/04/2016 19:22
