@tammystarren Your diary is set to private, so we can't see it.. However my sugar allowance is at 56 g by default apparently, while my carbs I have set to 150 g. You don't exactly have to try and reach that remember. Maybe try sticking to the macros (which for sugar would be carbs) rather than the micros? Sorry I can't…

I mainly only drink Pepsi Max, and tend to have 1 (2 at most) cans a day, as well as 1ltr of water. First time I lost weight I still drank soda and lost and that was 2014. The one can and 1ltr water is just this year and is working fine for me, I'm still losing. Maybe drink between the both (water, soda, water, soda,…

Yeah, start by telling us how many calories you eat a day and your height. If you aren't already, weighing your food is a good way to go. You mentioned 3 cheat meals a week, maybe try cutting down to one or two? It depends on how many calories etc is in them.

I lost 50lbs before and most of it was thanks to my fitbit! Feel free to add me on here or fitbit. :)

Dude awesome job!

So....what do you need more details for?

* Sweet potato * Celery * Fish * Couscous/quinoa * Peanut butter too, I have a jar of "high protein" PB that I bought for days where I'm lacking protein and ain't very hungry. * Brown rice * Low fat Laughing Cow cheese, it's like rubber, tastes bad and impossible to spread * Greek yogurt * Kefir * Alpro

It's basically "do or do not". I'm terrible with motivation, and I would really love to do nothing but lounge on the couch all day. I was going to yesterday but then I forced myself to take my dog a walk to and around the park (just under 2 miles). I was glad I did it, because according to my fitbit I had burned 400+…

There was a thread yesterday and the op was wondering why they had gained 5lbs when they weighed themselves right after eating and drinking about 5lbs worth of food and booze.

Yep same here. Back for round 2 starting about two months ago. Feel free to add me. :smiley:

The first time I lost weight it took around 30lbs I think before my coworkers started commenting on it. Some of them commented on how they noticed it around the back of my neck. It depends really on where you're losing it and how much of it is fat I guess too. My mum and I noticed it in my face first I think. I'd suggest…

Feed snek. Get snek drunk with me. Have a good time. Become friend with snek. Date snek. Marry snek. Snek kills me. Guess I wouldn't survive.

Oh boy. I know that feeling, I overheard my youngest nephew asking my mum if I was a few months ago.. Nope, I'm just fat because I gained all my lost weight back plus extra. Really though, I felt awful after hearing that.

Say no to her offer but say no to yourself more. I've been there, and really the most you can do is say no and try not to give into the pressure. I've had that a lot at work with people bringing snacks in (last week someone gifted a load of brownies and chocolate filled crepes, a box of miniature chocolates, all of which I…

Water is the only detox ingredient you need. Your liver will clear out any bad stuff and you'll just pee it out. :)

Yup, log absolutely everything you put in your mouth- Diet drinks, tea, coffee, fruit juice, flavored waters. Even chewing gum. There's the option for logging water on the diary already, but I made a section on my diary specifically for drinks (usually it's just a Pepsi max or a latte or something). Everything adds up!

Wait, so I've been getting the wrong info for my milk all this time? I'd been using my food scale to weigh out in grams and converting to ml for how much semi-skim I've been using for my cereal for weeks now :'(

Usually cereal if I'm at work or fried egg on toast when at home. Sometimes fried egg and sausage if I'm feeling daring.

Just wanted to pop by and say hi :)

It's only been a day! Don't give up before you've given yourself and your body a chance to even start, My advice is don't force yourself to eat things you don't like. Don't like kale? Don't eat it. Don't like turkey? Don't eat it. You wont stick to a diet (or maybe you will, but with more difficulty than necessary) if you…

I get by just fine on 1200, I'm not losing 2lb a week from it but that's probably down to the fact that I'm going over my goal some days. You do need to be in the right mind for it though and eat filling foods. Most importantly, foods you enjoy too (but don't fill up on junk, the calories skyrocket fast. I'd rather eat…

Exactly this ^. Get a bottle with measurements and then just log it in with the rest of your food diary.

It probably depends on how the cake was made. Chocolate cake A could be very different from chocolate cake B and C. Gotta make sure it's the right cake you're looking at. Besides, cakes and breads are different but I agree with the CICO part. For that 104kcal of chocolate cake. I'd rather opt for the 74cal of bread and…

This is probably my next book! It's sitting on my bookcase (and kindle, for travel) waiting for me. :) How are you enjoying it?

@MrsPinterest34 I'm staying in the Hyatt Place in Braintree. There is a Target in the South Shore Plaza right across the road from us from what I managed to read up. We'll be travelling between Braintree and Boston on the subway, we decided to not rent a car because of how busy the traffic can get. I'll keep note of this…

Just get back on track tomorrow and don't sweat one day. :)

'Salem's Lot by Stephen King. Next on my list is either The Stand or possibly trying one of the Metro 2033 books on my Kindle. Trying to finish 'Salems Lot before I go on holiday though, don't want to carry several books with me.

Metcalfe's Cinema Sweet Skinny Popcorn

I've gathered up a bunch of Stephen King books to read. I've been on/off reading 'Salems Lot the past few weeks. Once I finish this I'll be onto The Stand.

Drawing, can't eat if your hands are occupied. Same with gaming, although it hasn't stopped me in the past from mindlessly munching on garbage between respawns.. Also walking, because I hate walking and eating at the same time.
