Hiya

Thanks for replying :)

Yeah it's proof that the weight comes off when you try hard :) hoping to get to the gym tomorrow - I have my food etc all planned out and looking to stay low cals but will treat myself when I want something - obviously not every day or week though :)

I will doing 1200 as I find it gives me an incentive to exercise and eat more lol xx

Please be careful with the 1200! 80lbs is a lot to lose and I worry that when/if you plateau you'll have nowhere to move with your food! I've still got about 20lbs to lose and I am on 1350 a day (started at 1500 about 20lbs ago!) and have no plans to do 1200 until the last few pounds or if I have a serious plateau! Even a little higher would give you some leverage!

Good luck with your Calorie Counting Journey!

I think that's a good plan. :) I'm currently 15st6lbs, down from 21.5 stone, and I still eat between 1400 and 1500 a day. I started off at 1800 and have worked my way down to this level, but can't see me going much lower now. All the best. xx

Hi - I'm polgara36 on MFP. Started about 3 weeks ago when I hit 15st. Never been this weight before and at 5ft 1" it's putting a lot of strain on my knees.

I lost 4 stones about 15 years ago and it's slowly crept on - for some reason I really cannot see that I'm overweight when I look in the mirror and it's only when I see photos that I get a shock. Have had a lot of medical problems, gynae and torn ligaments which have restricted my exercise, but working to get my fitness back

This is similar to me too, I am 5ft 3 and i'm just short of 15 stone.I also dont think im all that bad when looking in the mirror, but yeah the fotos are horrendous & as they say the camera never lies, I am starting to hate nights out & stuff now, especially with everyone taking photos & posting on FB.
