I started exercising about 3 weeks ago. I don't log on cheat day but never have and haven't had a problem before I started exercising. My calories are measured by weighing and reading from packets.

Thanks all, I'm feeling more positive today. I'm not giving up

I'd like to get to my goal weight of 140 lbs before Christmas. The last 6 or so pounds is always so hard to get off :(

I know but I never weigh myself the week before my period as I retain water a lot

31 degrees celsius its hot for the UK! Yesterday was the hottest day in 9 years x

I have tried several different anti depressants and have been on the current ones for about 3 years now. My dr is trying to encourage me to wean off them. I've tried talking to different Drs but none of them are particularly helpful. I had the mirena coil until the beginning of the year and since having it removed my PMS…

Thanks for the replies all x

Never heard of epic bars, what is Palaeolithic?! X

Never heard of the brand cliff, will see if I can get them in the UK

All the protein bars I've tried cause it :(

Thankyou for the suggestion I will look them up x

She used to measure your waist?! Oh my gosh that is horrendous. Sounds like your mum had issues with weight and body image too x

It is free, I don't know why I am reluctant to go back to it. The original CBT wasn't initially for my weight/body issues, it was for my depression. My therapist was the one that pointed out my unhealthy relationship with food. At the time I was in denial and abit peed off that she was focusing my appointments on this…

Don't get me wrong, I love my sister and feel bad she is at an unhealthy weight. But I can't help that a big part of me thinks 'ha! Serves you right for being so mean to me'

I gave it up because my husband was in the army and I couldn't get anyone to have the children so I could go to my sessions every week. We lived in the middle of nowhere and I had no one, it was very lonely. we have moved now though, the waiting list for CBT is minimum 6 months so I was wondering if there's anything else I…

I'm 27 x

There is a big difference! You can really tell you've lost weight x

This is how I was in January. I refused to weigh myself as I was too scared to see how much weight I'd put on. I expected about 14lbs. At the end of February I plucked up the courage and was absolutely devastated to find I was actually 28lbs heavier! I'm glad I did it though as it gave me a well needed push to get my butt…

Thanks for all the replies :) will get my knees checked out by a specialist and get me some new trainers x

Wow, I must have burned at least 100 calories today

I only like flavoured green tea. Twinings do great flavours like cherry bakewell, salted caramel and fudge. My favourite is mint green tea though, it's very refreshing x

Since February 26th, it averages at 1lb a week as I haven't weighed for two weeks.

Nicely put

Most likely not lol

Yes, the general trend is down but I haven't weighed for two weeks and I'm really scared I've gained. Only lost 9 lbs so far.

Because calories from sugar and carbs are going to hinder my weight loss :(

I don't see my self as having done any good work though :(

Anything made with sugar, especially chocolate

Well done that's brilliant :)
