    Hi all,

    Happy Birthday Lee,

    Congratulations on the stone target Kendrafallon, can't wait til I reach my first stone off.

    I've been really good today but it says I haven't ate enough calories, should you try and reach the target everyday?

    I've given up on the gym I hate it, started going to flabelos(wobble board thing at local beauty place) Its great and supposed to be the same as an hours exercise at gym but only takes ten mins. Should loose a dress size in 3-4 weeks, we'll see if it works.

    Also can you access the messages on iphone app?

    Happy weight loss everyone xxx

    Cheers m'dear :)

    For me personally, I have a calorie limit set by the Rosemary Conley class (1700 cals) and the one on this site (1410 cals) so I try and eat between the 2 limits. Saying that, i tend not to eat the 'exercise' calories and so far with the logging am under my calorie limit each day. BUT I don't go hungry. And it's always useful to have a few calories spare :wink: just my tuppence worth

    Hello!

    Hope you guys don't mind me joining :) I'm from Wales and have 2 stone to lose!! I should of weighed myself on Monday... I had a bad weekend and Monday came round too quickly and I was too scared to do it...

    Fear of weighing myself - sounds ridiculous? :L

    It would be good to talk to people from the UK, if anyone here can speak Welsh that'd be great too!

    Hi Caryl!!

    Nice to see someone from Wales :bigsmile:
    I worked in Cardiff for three months and LOVED it there!! Great people, great city :smile:
    Sadly did not pick up ANY welsh when I was there though!!

    Don't worry about the scale fear we all have it at times... I'm avoiding mine too!!
    Wish you all the best with your goal, this is a great place for advice and support :smile:

    Hey all, thanks for the birthday wishes, I had a great day and got spoilt rotten. :laugh: Did really well on the food front too. Went out for a nice meal at the Little Frankie and Benny's linked to the Odeon cinema near ours, but didn't have any tea so still had plenty of calories left. Was going to go the gym but felt absolutely knackered when I got home, so much so that I ended up going bed for a nap!!! Definately getting old! :laugh:

    Back to it today though, full day in work, back to the gym ready for weigh in tomorrow!

    Hope everyone is doing okay! :happy:

    Lee.

    Thanks Mel! I love this site, so many nice people here :)
    I've only been a student in Cardiff for 7 months, first year at the Atrium University :happy: LOVE the city! Glad you loved it too!
    Originally I'm from North Wales, where all the mountains and 'josgins' are :laugh:

    I plucked up the courage to go into the pharmacy today to weigh myself... to say I had a bad 2 weeks of eating absolute rubbish, I have lost 2 pounds in 2 weeks! yaaaaay!! But I know I need to eat better, I won't continue the way I am, for sure!

    Hi, can I join Team Uk?! I have 30lbs to lose (according to Wii Fit which I feel is slightly mean spirited!) I would love to lose at least half of that by August as am going to LA and am afraid that they won't let me on the beach!

    Your welcome xx

    The people here really are great, I'm sure you'll have all the support you need. Any help we can offer we'll be glad too.
    2lbs is great weight loss, Well done!!
    I do know how you feel, sometimes it's really hard to resist certain foods. Even harder whilst at Uni!!
    My weight can really dart about too, don't look any different but can be anything around 5-6lbs heavier or lighter for no real reason. Weird!!

    This place really does help keeping on top of your foods and I've found I've noticed patterns in what I eat, it also highlights when I eat too many snacks and treats - I think I'd forget them otherwise!!
    I've found that I'm eating healthier than probably ever before, as a routine now rather than just a short lived diet.
    And it even motivates me to exercise more than I would naturally too :o)
    So your in the right place!!

    I love Wales, I used to go there for holidays with my family when I was a kid, first skiied in Wales on those mountains!!
    Such a lovely place. I'm going to take my son camping in Wales this summer.
    We did a little camping trip last summer, just a couple of days to make sure he liked it and we were well prepared.
    He loved it and didn't want to go home!! He is 5 :o)
    This time I'll feel happier to take him further from home and for longer, I know he'll love Wales and he'll love crossing the seven bridge too, we'll stay somewhere near Cardigan Bay and try to see some dolphins!!

    Hi all

    Welcome to Melissa, Caryl, and Ali


    This is a great site to come to, everyone is so supportive (& some are quite nuts.... not talking about anyone in particular Mimi):laugh:

    Well guys on the plus side my anniversary meal went well, we stayed in !! LOL on the downside the 'perfect weekend' maybe more of a challenge as we are going out Sat night with friends!!!!
    Had a couple of glasses of Champagne, and made a low fat fry up with oven chips. I wouldn't let the other half go & buy Chip Shop ones as there is no way I wouldn't have eaten any! He didn't understand why !! MEN well specifically men who would burn the calories in chips off, the next day at work!!

    well have a good day everyone

    Haha :laugh: I totally get what you mean! I really want to go to LA and I know this is going to sound really lame but I have always thought I would never go to LA unless I was at my weight goal ... that seems really silly but I dunno, I just feel like I wouldn't enjoy it otherwise! With all them scary health gurus over there!!!!! I'm sure you'll reach your goal, welcome to the group! :flowerforyou:
