Anyone just starting? I don't think I can do it alone!

[FluffedIt]

Hi, I'm a fatty and can't stand the self conscious feeling anymore. I tried sw but it's not working for me so I've downloaded mfp.

I've got about 3 stone to lose and would love a chunk off by October. Though I know it will take longer to hit target...anyone else just starting? Or just need a bit of company along the way?

Well i wasn't paying so had whatever was passed my way! Lesson learned though Im clearly not 21 anymore!

Well done on the losses everyone and don't give up and get posting if you are struggling no judgement here

I've ordered a bikini for our honeymoon -

Must now concentrate...

I'm very surprised I've only put 0.8lb on this week since I fell of the diet wagon.

I really must learn to deal with stress in a better way than eating.

Pasty that's my problem too, it's hard!

New week, new start!

How did everyone get on yesterday?

Did really well, over 12,000 steps and 600 cals of exercise. I've made a really healthy lunch with 5 portions of fruit and veg. Not feeling particularly well today and DS did not sleep well so I didn't sleep well. Gonna have to really try and resist the vending (they've installed a card reader on it so it's easy access)

I always eat crap when I'm stressed or tired too.

Weekend was ok, not too awful but I didn't fill in MFP.

I have done it today and am well within my calories so far.

Hope everyone has a good week

Joining please! My BMI now puts me at obese...! I have at least 2.5 stone to lose. I've posted my own thread which I'll keep updating but need some group support too I think!

Also I'm going for lunch with work tomorrow (pizza place that does nothing else) AND we're having a BBQ after work. Tomorrow is already a write off

Not too bad so far this week. Went out to a carvery for lunch but will skip tea so should be ok...

Hello! You are all doing really well. I've been calorie counting for two weeks so far but I'm off work with a sore throat today and I've had two between meal snacks so will probably go over today. I weighed 12.8 when I started, will weigh on Fri morning. Am hoping I'll be 12.5 at least.

Going to do a cherry tomato and spinach omelette with a sprinkling of gruyere for dinner. Was meant to be salad but I fancy something a bit more substantial

If anyone is still around, to you want to have a bit of a challenge? I'm going to see how much I can lose in 10 days.
Going to up my exercise and not include the gained calories in my eating. And going to be rigid, rigid I tell you, with my daily diary.

That sounds perfect @A1Sharon as I'm back to work from mat leave in 12 days!

I've stepped up my Fitbit (on 16k today so far!) If anyone is on fitbit too and fancies doing some challenges I'm up for it!

Right, so far I've lost 44lbs in 8 weeks.

That's an average of 5.5lbs a week!

3.1stone so far!!

I have to say, I'm pretty chuffed with myself

That's amazing! Well done!!

I'm up for a challenge.
Would anyone like to start a what's app group together?
We can msg when we NEED chocolate and others can say NO!!!

Not offended if people don't want too xx

Life joys - that is amazing, you must feel so proud xxx

Joining please! Managed to lose nearly two stone since new year and get pretty fit but then decided to go on holiday weighed myself as soon as we got back from the airport and have put on half a stone! In a week!!!
So here we go again.....I have a serious problem with food, in that I love it! It's literally the topic of most of my conversations. And not just food but portion size! Yes, I am addicted to food. Enough is enough and I am back on the wagon MFP is updated and spinning booked for tomorrow night. Only 4 (and a half) stone to go

@Papillion86 I bet that will come straight off, it's prob just bloat! (In the nicest way possible!)

Please join us Papillion the more the merrier-and the more motivated I feel!
Onwards and upwards. Right, so next Friday or sat for 'big weigh in'?

I've been very good at sticking to 1200 cals but had a row with my brother on the phone and ended up eating a bowl of crunchy nut cornflakes!!

Thank you all!

I'm starting to like the person I see in the mirror, yes I've got a jelly belly (had one before I had my son) but I no longer feel self conscious about only wearing a top as opposed to jackets over the top to cover my stomach!

I do still have another 44lbs to go which is another 3stone.

Gttia, I'm pretty serious about losing this last 3st, so I'm game for what's app!

Another day of being good here, I even walked down the choc aisle then walked away!

Nearly 13k steps and under calories

How's everyone getting on?

Spin class done and well under calories! My legs feel like jelly!!!

Also picked up some chocolate snackajacks which hit the spot after dinner. Resisting the urge to get on the scales until next week.
