Eating the same thing each day should stop you over eating because you are not snacking. You don’t overeat because it doesn’t taste special on your taste buds

I find it strange you are allowed butter, which is made from milk, but not milk cheese or yogurt. Find the oldest cookbook for your area, family, secondhand store or library, and see what they ate for ideas. The older the better, pre 1950, they ate tail to nose and veg in season. A lot of the meat recipes can be done in…

1cup of tea and a piece of toast. Seriously in your life style do you need a big breakfast. I sit on a bus, walk a short distance then work eight hours at a desk sitting down. I excerise at night. In the weekend I eat more but I eat around 9 to 10am.

It's a water booster supplement, it's cheap and I only use it if I am really sweating and need a salt replacement eg 2-3 hour hill walking. I also use it when I go on holiday and walking all…

Dump the squats until you are fitter. Pain is not good and will not make your body happy. Keep walking the 2 miles and maybe add some jogging. Beginners yoga will have a list of easy excerises you can do which include stretching. When excerise becomes part of your lifestyle then you can go all high achiever and do the…

My advise for a beginner is do what feels good for you. Getting to the gym is the hardest problem. The best time to excerise is in the morning as your body burns calories all day but after work is easier. Pick a time a stick to it. Put notes in fitness pal of what you did, how long, and did you like it. Consider how fit…
