HollyD Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I love this thread.. I mean MIKA FAT CLUB... I have been terribly unhappy about myself for a while now. And it is time to once and for all make a change! As we all know, it is SO hard to do it all alone. That is why I am so pleased that we now have this awesome support system! We are all here to help, empower and encourage each other! I know that we can do it! I want 2008 to be a BRIGHT beginning to a new healthier, happier life for all of us!!!!! Thank you Jemma!

kk448 Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 If you don't want to do that, I recommend Weight Watchers. I did that during a school year and lost a stone. Yes, my mom always had such great results when doing Weight Watchers. It works even better if you go to the meetings instead of going it alone.

Wendi Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Thee was a lady on TV last week - she lost 9 stone - almost half her weight - and she did it by eating healthier food, and going for power walks in the early morning when no-one could see her. I am not overweight - but have a very flabby tummy, and because of my health I can't excercise!! Its very disheartening!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah_loves_mika Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I love going to the gym. A while back, i was a size 12 (UK size, which is in no means big, but i didnt feel comfortable myself) so ive been going to the gym for ages. Now im a very happy and healthy 8 - which is right for me and my height. Its just about doing what's right for you to be honest. Don't push it too far, just be comfortable with who you are.

SkullyRox Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Hey everyone. Just an idea I have.Have any of you considered trying Paul Mckenna's books,CD's...? I have his 'I can make you thin' CD-and to be honest, I think it is utter tosh.In one ear telling he's me to look in the mirror and wish myself thin-and in the other some cheesy music-if it was that simple, I'd be a rake by now! I have followed the Slimming World diet-but for me, my weight loss slowed down, but I think that's because I didn't do much exercise. This morning my 'Rebecca Wheatley 'The New Me' workout DVD came, it's simple exercises that I can manage. And also has Slimming World recipes etc on there! So, going to give that a whirl, along with going back to the gym. I have a long way to go-but, I will get there one day! I want to stand next to a cheesy cut out of me one day-this was me at such a such weight, this is me now" TAHDAH! *Yes, Rebecca really does say Tadaaaaa! Proper cheese!

It only works if you are really prepared to take it very seriously and focus on it. I guess not everything works for everyone. But thats cool, because I'm rubbish with gyms and stuff like that!

The only good thing about it is, he has a lovely voice!I thoroughly enjoyed going to the gym, but one week some guy from work came in and just laughed-that put me off, I felt like saying "I'm here exercising, it's not like I'm sat here eating a chocolate cake!!":sneaky2: And then my Gym buddy gave it up and I only managed a couple visits on my own before I stopped going. But my sister has to start going now, so I will go with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shari Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Good luck to everyone heading for gyms in the new year. I did enjoy it when I went but couldn;t do it now. I have to be really careful what I do because of my back. Skully,how about you put that Paul McKenna CD in the first "MFC library" and people can rent it off you to try out?

Sounds like a good idea. Although I rented one of his tapes to a friend, and never actually got it back I should really ask about that, but I think they would be like :what the?

MegPL Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I've got a piece of advice..don't care about what other people says...I don't and that is why I'm still fine on my mind.. always answer to those who laughs at me that "I've got more body to love"...and then I said something mean about them ]:-> *evil* but thats me...I'm naughty xD at home I've got great diet! but only for womens...now I don't remember it..but it is about watching your glukose level in your diet...only thing I remember now it's that it is allowed to have ONLY 2 slice of dark bread per day! 7 snack-including 5 vegetable + 2 fruit (eg apple, orange, mandarin) NO bananas, pineapples, potatoes... This diet I've got from my doctor,I lose 15kg (something about 2stones) in a litte more than 1 month, without exercises -just doing normal things around the house, and I promise to translate it when I come back home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkullyRox Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Skully,how about you put that Paul McKenna CD in the first "MFC library" and people can rent it off you to try out?I have it on my mp3 player... I sold the CD on. I can get the audio from my mp3 player though-if anyone wants to 'try before they buy' or whatever-not that I condone that sort of practice mind!

Suzy Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 I have no excuse not to work out. I have to stop eating chocolate. The most challenging thing for me is time. I haven't got any:blink: . Well...I suppose I do, but it will probably mean that I can't be sitting on my arse in front of this computer as much as I want to then... I'm still thinking about it. Great thread jemma!
