I've been a vegetarian for nearly 10 years now and on/off vegan for 2-3 years :) feel free to add me and always love talking recipes xxx

I drink herbal teas as appetite surpressants they help with cravings and drinking enough fills me up :) Sometimes I add Splenda (2cal per tsp) which really helps with the sugar cravings x

I don't think you can spot-reduce weight/fat loss but cutting out processed carbs/wheat/gluten products will not only reduce your calorie intake but will reduce bloating. I think I read somewhere that carbs that aren't used up for energy basically store as fat and these cells swell up causing bloating. Whenever I feel/look…

Wow thanks everyone for all the replies. I have been weighing everyday and measuring every other day for quite some time now and at the beginning of my weight loss journey seeing positive changes nearly every day-every other day was so motivating but recently I've hit such a plateau and actually some days seeing up to 4lbs…

Thanks a lot everyone for replies. I think I will have to focus on a calorie deficit and also work A LOT harder on avoiding temptations and making smarter choices as looking at my diary recently my intake has been sporadic and I can see I have not always been making healthy decisions. I will focus on weighing my food and…

I read up about increasing calorie intake for a while to try and break a plateau...unfortunately in my case it lead to this weight gain! It is getting increasingly frustrating and demotivating. My main problem areas are stomach and especially thighs and so from further reading I think I will try creating a calorie deficit…

Thanks a lot!
