I'm late to the party but I'm following you.

Surely if you drink bottled water and it is not 100% fresh it will leech some of those plastic molecules (note the scientific bit there - not even sure if that is the correct term). But sometimes it tastes plasticy so it must have some plastic in it which must be calorific, right?

I'm the opposite of the people who just complete their diaries - I post a whole load of stuff, from how I went on with my food to all my walks. It's probably boring as heck to anyone else, but I just use it as a journal. I always log my food, even if it is way over: it is just what I do.

I did about the same today with some mulled wine I had open. there was 250ml left. When I saw how much it was going to cost in calories, I didn't have enout left in my allowance, but really wanted some of it - so I poured 50ml back into the measuring cup - and tipped the rest down the sink. I really enjoyed my 50ml of warm…

Today I got really angry at work: so angry that my boss took me into another office to talk to me about it. He said that while I might well be right in what in was saying, I was doing it all wrong. I know I am right in what I was saying. He might be right. He probably is right. I don't know what to do. I am rather shouty…

Hi and thank you for this free advice. I am 57, 4 ft 11in and have lost over 70lb in the last three years (I am taking the scenic route). I decided that now that eating healthily (well, certainly more healthily that I was doing) is part of my life, I would now like to get more active. I have started using the wii-fit, have…

^^ This, this, this!

Me too :(

I had no idea of the calories and FAT in taramasalata! how can it be so high. I love the stuff, but no more! Bye, bye lovely greek dip!

I am not proud of this, but there is a part of me that is really glad I was huge in the past because people think you are somehow morally good to have lost a huge amount of weight. It wasn't why I put it on or why I lost it but it really makes me feel good when people comment.

I posted here awhile back to say that hubby was having a lump removed and that we had been told that it was cancer. His hand recovered pretty well and he has now regained full use of the hand. When he went back for results, they told is that something was wrong with the results, so they had to be retested. This week we…

I love mine dearly, but I do wish he would: Wipe the surfaces down after cutting tomatoes Rinse his milkshake glass Rinse the bath after use! I am not his maid!

Oh yes!

I was a prescription drug addict as a child. They gave me Ephedrine for my asthma which suppressed my appetite and I had no desire to eat at all. When they finally decided it was a bad idea and took me off it, I discovered food. Mashed spuds! Chips! Chocolate biscuits! Cheese! I went from being a "skinny little famine…

Hi Rayqd The ww points will be 29 + your weeklies, an extra seven to add on which would be 36. Also the free fruit and veg wasn't counted. I worked out that with the free fruit and veg I was eating around 1700calories a day, 500 more than I am on now.

My son has been using soylent for a while now. He likes the convenience, says it tastes nice, is helping him maintain his weight. He appears healthy and happy which is all you need know. I don't fancy it, but I never liked shakes. If there was a tea (or pepsi max cherry) that I could drink that tasted like tea (or pepsi…

I have asked my boss if I can leave early tonight because I want to get back home early because I have an online meeting. I figuere that if I get back early I will have time to exercise before the meeting and make up somespare calories for the chocolate and biscuits I will probably eat during the meeting. My confession:…

Is there any way we can help?

Are they what we would call cheesy chips?

I prefer men in kilts and women in whatever they want to wear. Me, I wear trousers and no one is ever going to tell me I shouldn't for whatever reason. It is too cold to wear skirts today anyway.

I can't stand ice cold water and I hate ice in drinks. I don't like ice cream unless it is slightly melted. Maybe it's because I live in the UK - it is not hot here for much of the year.

I'm 57 and I play MMOs. Not sure that this should be a confession. That I play them too much might be the confession. I would rather play than exercise, but I am finding exercise is much more enjoyable on a wii-fit than without.

You and me both!

Leonard Nimoy - oh no, so very sad. A true hero.

I don't even know what leg day is!

Someone at work was a right pain. She looked down on me because I was fat. I'm thinner than she is now and I'm a little ashamed of how good that feels.

I could drive my boss to pieces by clicking my pen... absentmindedly of course, not deliberately, no I wouldn't be that mean. Except sometimes she really deserved it. Lol.

I'm just now logging the crap I ate last night after two glasses of wine. I was thought I was doing so well but in fact I was 380 over the day's goal. Ouch!

Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes!
