As Taylor Swift recently said Log it and "Shake it off". You don't need to fast. Go out and have a nice long walk, eat to your goal today and realise we are all human, we all have days we slip up and it's only one day. :)

I hate Slimming World. It does me no good and I ALWAYS gain weight on it. I like MFP. Free to use. Easy to do and getting results. :)

I had all three of mine done under local anaesthetic. How I wish they'd punched me out with a hammer instead.

My Charge HR can keep up to 7 days worth of tracking without being synced. So no you won't lose data if you don't sync it all the time :)

I take my walking fitbit calories with a pinch of salt. If I'm hungry, I'll eat some of them back but I don't usually bother and I'm losing steadily. It does go a bit insane sometimes. I've done 12,000 steps today and it's given me 300 extra calories. I haven't eaten them back though as its only walking.

I had an impacted lower wisdom tooth removed a year or so ago. It was awful. I didn't eat for three days other than water and rice pudding. When I had my top two out however I was eating within a day. So depends on severity of the extraction. Lol Defo take heed of advice above. Dry socket is a *kitten*!

You can shut Fitbit up by setting a custom goal. I did that and now it leaves me alone in a food sense. I use MFP along side my Fitbit fine now I sorted it out. :)

Mine is fish at the moment. I'm probably low on zinc or something. I always crave feta cheese too when someone I know is pregnant. I usually know before they do!

Kettlebells! I love them!!

You sure I can't tempt you into squeezing all your vital organs into a beautiful stretchy band that takes 3.5 hours to fasten up as every time you get one and hook and eye fastened another one pops open? No? Not interested? Pahahahahaha. These things really do tickle me.

I wish I could eat Jason Bateman. He'd be the greatest last meal ever. P.S. I didn't mean literally EAT him. I'm not a cannibal or anything.

People... What is a peep. What does it taste like and is it good with peanut butter? :lol:

I'm 5ft2 currently 11st5. I started at 13 stone. I lose weight eating 1480 calories. I'm shorter than you. I eat more and lose 1-1 1/2lb a week. Eat more and feel better while still losing weight. Yep :)

I've had stretch marks since my mid teens. On my arms, side of my boobs, behind my knees and then after a child on my stomach. They are nothing to be ashamed of. Staying well moisturised can help. Drink plenty of water to help keep the skin hydrated too. I used to be mortified about mine but when I see others who have…

Peanut butter on five seeded malt toast. Yum yum yum

I colour. Or knit. Something that keeps my snacking hands busy ;)

I take a Turmeric capsule every morning after breakfast. It keeps me going so to speak. It's also a natural anti inflammatory and helps with my lousy backache too so win win all round for me ha ha!

I know when I get to 10 1/2 stone that I have gone far enough for ME. Yep at 5ft2 I should be something ridiculous like 8st3 to be classed as "healthy" but for me, that would be too difficult to maintain and I would look ill. I have always had quite a curvy heavy set figure and I just couldn't cut it as slim. So I know for…

My phone stunk of fresh garlic for three days so I'm really not the best person to ask for advice hahahahahaha

That's what I have to tell myself. I know it's crap and all you want is a big fat greasy pizza and 20 donuts but it won't make you feel better. That I can promise you. :x

I would have put my clothes back on and told him not to be so damn rude. :| Ha ha

If OP isn't feeling constipated... Could just be that your body is using your healthier food more constructively than the rubbish you were eating before. Less waste would be produced if you were getting more nutritional value from your food? Meh I'm not a doctor so who knows.

At least I didn't say Poop. Oh wait...

Made me think of the sanitary towel adverts. "Have a happy period" Oh how amusing! Ha ha I agree though... Lots of water and gentle exercise.

I have awful periods. I get migraines, bad cramps, bloating and back ache. I don't use it as an excuse to become a pig in a trough though. Mind over matter I'm afraid. I'm currently on mine and sticking to my calorie goal and allowing myself a treat included in said calorie goal. The harsh reality is that there are so many…

I joined because I had too many chins and belly rolls. Now I have less.

Fiber IS important for weight loss. I had a week where I didn't consume enough fiber and I was constipated to hell. Upped my fibre, constipation went and I lost 3lb. In a matter of days. So I don't agree with that part of your analysis.

I am losing on 1480 calories a day. I'm 5ft2 and currently weigh 162lbs and aiming for 147. :)

Michael Moseley who produced the 5:2 book/documentary did stress that IF isn't about losing weight. It's about the health benefits. The weight loss is merely a bonus and not guaranteed. Like I say I felt great following it but weight loss was minimal, now however I am losing at a nice healthy 1lb a week and I feel just as…
