Not sure if we're allowed to talk about this but are we allowed to share weight loss tips here? I have a year to lose 3.5 stone!

Anything is achievable if you put your mind to it! All about eating everything in moderation, no need to do a faddy diet and restrict yourself from the things you like most! Keep positive and happy and take each day at a time and focus on where you want to be! Never look at it from the point where you need to lose 3.5st, look at the smaller goals e.g 7lb, hitting the next stone 'zone' etc etc.
I'm a fellow 'loser' I actually do the one where you watch your weight....(WW) but quite a few ladies on here do the world that slims too (SW). I joined in Nov 2010, so 1yr 10months ago and have lost 4.5st. Yes thats over nearly 2 years however for the last 10months I have completely messed around and had realllyyyy bad weeks over and over again and only lost 12lb in total (gone up and down so lost more, but overall) so it is achievable.
I think if you search their is a thread for weightloss for 2012 that might have some tips! And everyone on here is so supportive!
Also, many of us use an app on our phones - My Fitness Pal - dont know if you have heard of it? Calorie Counter, you can set your own target each week and key in everything you eat or do and it calculates it all for you. can find other members on here who also use MFP and can friend request & added option of having MFP diary viewable to others it means you cant hide or lie about what your eating!
Good luck! xx

Im on MFP - same name as on here, feel free to add me if you want, its a nice little support network. I havent used it the past week properly as H2b was getting ready to deploy for 6 months, so I took a week away from SW and just enjoyed myself. See the damage tonight!

My fitness app is amazing and its helped me out so much! I havent really lost so much weight but then i only wanted to lose half a stone,nut its toning up im needing. I eat 1200 cals a day and exericse 3 times a week and have only lost what i gained over the summer hols. :( i seem to be stuck at the weight im at the now!
CommentAuthorAmberG30
I play lots of roller derby which is great for exercise I just need to watch what I eat! I used to be 9 stone and then gradually I've piled on the pounds over the past 4 years!
CommentAuthorMrs Ross
hi amber im on my fitness pal im trying to add people but cant understand it can anyone tell me how?
CommentAuthorLulu1388
hi MrsRoss2B - on your phone or comp?
for comp - underneath the 'myhome' tab youll see 'home, goals, check in, mail, profile, my blog, friends, settings'
click on friends, then in green it has a box to the right 'invite your friends'
now in the bit that says emails you can (on the phone it works) add people just with their username, so in my case you'd put lulaloops and then send, and i should receive a request.
For the phone you find the friends section on the app, click on add friend, type in your name, then in the 'to' box put either username or email if you know of the person you want to add, and send.
Hope that helps xx
