Bloody f**king nora. Just weighed myself and I want to die.

[BaublesAndCuntingCarolSingers]

I can't even bring myself to type in my weight because I am so ashamed :(

I need to lose 3.5 stone before the end of May (going on holiday with a thin friend) I am doing My Fitness Pal (calorie counting) and I am going to do 1200 calories a day. It's brutal I know but then so was the reading on my scales this morning.

Effing Nora :(

You have to watch it on MFP - some of the entries are wrong (I remember a happy moment when I entered a scotch egg or something to see it was zero carb and 60 calories before the penny dropped)

Alreet TSC.
I add the shred under circuit training, for 22 minutes. Think it's about 186 cals.
Are you dying of exercise today? Going downstairs on your arse?

Atre you the secondcoming on MFP?

I am CarbyClaire btw

BUMPY?????!!!! WAS THAT ME?

I did something called a fat fast last year (when I was low carbing and plateaued for a few weeks).

5 days of 1000 cals per day, and he food had to be majority fat.

So - 2 packets of macadamia nuts a day, or a couple ozs of pate or full fat philadelphia and 8 gallons of water. And more coffee than starbucks.

I will never eat a macadamia nut again - delicious as they are.

Crying at CarbyClaire

I don't like nuts of any kind

I know!

I just stood up and got proper lightheaded

It's no fun. But the best remedy is to do it again.
I started it again, so ill be in that state tomorrow.

Jesus TSC that sounds a bit grim. I shut the car door onto my face the other day, that bloody hurt.

I need to upload a photo onto MFP. The only one I have on this laptop is me pissed at a festival (and I look it) or with a terrible frumpybob.

5 sea kelp tablets and 5 glasses of water.

I am shredding tonight. Then I have a pile of ironing. I have jsut cleaned the kitchen.

How many calories does h/work take up?

This thread is making me roar with laughter. Was fairly depressed at turning into a human weeble through a combination of pregnancy and christmas (where I didnt drink, didnt eat mince pies/sweets/xmas pud/stollen etc but still put on fricking weight) but this brilliant thread of chiefs has made me put it all in perspective. Thank you. And FWIW Shiney's advice up thread is spot on.

At the risk of sounding stupid, what is MFP? haven't read whole thread.

I did the shred last night- on day 4. It is a challenge for the weak of pelvic floor, but very good. Jillian is scary, and I did have to pause it for a second to go for a wee before the jumping jacks forced the issue. Very dignified.

Can I join you? I'm losing faith only 8 days in and need a huge boot up the arse.
How do I add you on MFP? My username is Elfme and the only 'add friends' options I can see are via email, FB or my phone contacts.

CarriedAwayAnnie - if you want to do a spin class, do it! Everyone had to start off being the unfit one in the class at some point. And the glow you get when you realise its getting easier/you're not dying at the end of the class each week is definitely worth it.

Thank god for this thread. I lost 35lbs a couple of years ago and have kept it off until this Christmas, when I went COMPLETELY BANANAS and have put almost a stone back on

So.... back on the wagon. Basically being a Good Girl eating-wise, low carbs, low fat, high protein, no chocolate-y crap. Wine at the weekends 'cos otherwise I'd have to jump off the roof. And the occasional Haribo when I need a sugar-fix 'cos no-one's perfect

Oh and I had been cycling in to work but my bike got stolen in November and I couldn't afford to buy a new one before Christmas - but it's on the list now so am frantically checking ebay and gumtree - need to get cycling again as that really helped keep the weight off.

Need to lose a couple of stone - the one I've put one + one more. Bring it on!

I'm having the same problem on MFP Notfootball - How do you add people?

To add people on MFP, go to the Community tab at the top, then search members. Then you can enter the username you're looking for in the search box on the right hand side :)

Gah.

Headache.

YES I HAVE STARTED MOANING.

Fell, it's My Fitness Pal website.

Brill free site for monitoring your gobbling (food intake) and your wobbling (exercise).
