Some of the comments on here put me off of posting again another time......I thought the idea was to help and support. Obviously we are not all like minded. But thank you to the people who have given good, sound advice and those on my wavelength.

I've gone from one diet to the other since i was about 15 (longer than I care to remember) I've lost weight but always gained it back. Before I started this time I was the heaviest I've ever been, it was only the threat of blood pressure medication that made me do something about it but now it's about fitness and being…

Well not we'll!

I wasn't "severely undereating" I just hadn't eaten much and wasn't hungry, didn't really want to eat a lot before going to bed and it was a one off. Surely eating wholemeal bread ham and salad was better than not eating at all? Thank you everybody else for your help, just getting to grips with it but going we'll so far

Very sorry everyone......I appear to have been mistaken in thinking a slice of bread with fillings is a sandwich.

Only one slice of bread, half a slice of Ham and loads of salad

Thanks everyone, I'm having a ham salad sandwich and a cuppa and coming in at about 930 calories, off to bed for an early start tomorrow so don't really want anything to heavy before I go to sleep. If I see the same thing happening again another time, I'll add a little more a bit earlier. Just happened today, not planned…

Right everybody, I've borrowed a dog......wish me luck, we're going for it!

Thank you everyone, you're all really helpful and given me loads of ideas. (I especially like the "racing myself one" , will definitely sort some music out and find some new places to walk

Thanks everybody, think I do need to get some music sorted out and maybe go a bit further to change the route. There really is nobody to come with me and not quite up to running standard at the moment! haha

Hello, I'm 217 at the moment and would like to get down to 168 eventually but my first goal is 200. I've tried loads of times before but this time its more about losing it for my health so slow and steady is fine with me. Good luck.x

Thanks again everybody. Thinking about it, its obvious really isn't it.......because as fitness levels improve and the exercising increases we'll be burning more and more calories. So the 1200 calories won't go that far if you're burning say 600 (not that I will be anytime soon! haha) I'm going to go with eating some of…

My blood pressure is 150ish / 85-90 and one of my main reasons for getting healthy and losing weight.......early days yet but have bought a home monitor and booked back in with the GP in 5 weeks. Hopefully it will be down a bit by then or he'll be putting me on tablets

I've just eaten a clementine......sorry self control I just couldn't resist! :p Thank you @TheOwlhouseDesigns

I'd like to lose about 60 pounds, have tried all the fad diets and decided now its time to eat well and get healthy. Well done on how well you are doing so far!

I knew your comment was going to be negative @1592984904984984089984980 and as I said I won't be eating them all back. Thanks everybody for all of your help, its only my first week so am yet to find what works best for me :smile:

I'm trying to work out most calories for myself because some of the figures on the database just don't add up. Thanks for the advice on eating out aswell, you're right its no fun at all

Thank you both. I wouldn't eat them all back anyway, probably a hundred would do me. I've noticed the differences in estimates can be quite big.....on the foods aswell so am trying my best to work them out myself. Have only been back on it 3 days but so far so good. Thanks again for the help :)

Thank you, I know I'm going to have bad days but will just have to try and outweigh them with good. Good luck to you too.x
