    I started off losing weight by not eating between meals, and it did work out as 5 hour gaps. I was surprised to find that I just got used to it! The danger point was in the evening - normally I'd eat three meals a day but if I stayed up too late then I'd be ready for another meal about 5 hours after the last! . I still more or less follow this but I'm more lenient on the snacks now that I'm calorie counting as well.

    SRH7, I'm another one who eats lightly during the day so that I can have a normal sized meal in the evening! It seems to work for me.

    Plastic surgery will also do wonders, as well as some great photoshopping.

    You know, I spent years forcing breakfast down and doing the three-meals-a-day-with-two-snacks thing as I thought it was the healthiest option and just gradually put more and more weight on. I've learned that it's so important to ignore what's right for other people (and regimented diet plans) and now just listen to my body.

    As a teenager I often had a microwave baked potato with beans and cheese or bowl of soup for breakfast before school as I hated cereal. I was tall and superskinny (UK Size 8). With hindsight it was a more nutritious option than sugary cereal. I also didn't have a car and walked everywhere. I'm trying to go back to the way I ate and exercised then and it seems to be working.

    And now, as an adult, I refuse to give up my big evening meal! And if having dessert means having to eat lightly during the day then so be it.

    For info I've lost 8lbs since Christmas using the Roadmap - it really does work!: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/654536-in-place-of-a-road-map-2-0-revised-7-2-12

    No tea? For a man who once said he'd rather have a cup of tea than sex, maybe he has another secret he's not letting on :laugh:

    Seriously, the boy done good.

    I eat a ton of bread and sugar. I must be doing it wrong:grumble:

    Yeah, that's probably why you're struggling with the definition there, chubster. Get off the bread, lard-boy, and it'll make a real man of you.










    *edited to add, just in case the sarcasm meter is broken, this is a joke. Please don't twist off my head and use it as a soccer ball.
