Never tried jerky,I like things that last a while to eat and filling . I did think about a bag of chopped fruits but not sure what as have Oranges and apple in the day for snacks

West midlands here .feel free to add me

Celery ,even dipping it in light Mayo didn't make it nicer

I live in the west midlands, uk

Google is your friend .most restaurants have a downloadable menu with their calories on and a light bite section that's under 500 calories or 600 calories even pizza hut and pizza express

Tomato sauce, light Mayo, occasionally bbq sauce

I dont track condiments, butter,vegetable oil which I don't use often. The only drinks I track is if I have alcohol or an options hot chocolate, I don't track water or squash etc because it's all no added sugar and don't drink many fizzy drinks anyway . If I have a few chips the kids have left at wetherspoons or a few…

I use a thin for my lunch

This is what I'm eventually aiming for .well done

I don't eat them as they are very high in calories plus I have a bad experience from when I was pregnant with being sick so put me off

I'm from the uk too if you want to add me

If I'm on holiday for a few days or a bit longer I will still stick to my eating plan but do more walking than normal and I will swim if can as well as running . My brother lost 14 stone 8 years ago and he has rest weeks when on holiday and scoffs whatever he wants when he wants and at the weekend but he also does loads of…

My brother lost 14 stone 8 years ago and my dad paid for him to see a therapist as he had issues .tbh he still does but his way works for him . I've got a weight that I don't want to go over or under

I don't feel guilty about it being 1250 calories it's hard to explain. Everyone else makes it look so easy ,I've put on 4 lbs in 2 weeks and that's what is making me feel bad. I know I exercise enough to burn it off but it doesn't seem to at the moment. I'm really hoping it will level off soon and I will be able to eat…

Acadecca thank you for the advice it has helped a bit. People keep telling me to up my calories and eat more and treat myself as I've done the hard work and my blowouts aren't even that bad tbh . It's all psychological and I know this but I know I need help with it

I'm not getting thoughts about not eating .I love eating what I eat I'm just struggling with my mindset and I feel I can't do what I'm meant to when I could lose the weight easily

Me too it's so difficult

Yeah I am definitely happier and healthier and loving my new lifestyle though struggling with maintenance at the moment and upping calories .

Monday is usual my rest day though I still do an hours walking aswell as go to work and do the school run . If I've had a bit more food than normal over the weekend I may go for a run before work on a Monday just because I will feel all stodgy otherwise

These are all really good things to hear right now. I know that having a bar of chocolate or pizza won't undo all my hard work especially because my willpower is still so strong buy my mind is still a bit behind my body at the moment. Saying that I really fancy some chocolate right about now and don't even know why I'm not…

I'm so glad it's not just me that's finding it hard .it's been about 2 months so far and I admit I'm struggling

I overindulged tbh .and paying for it today though my partners leftover pizza almost got ate this morning before I went to the gym ha

I'm addicted to raw carrots and pasta now though the pizza hut buffet yesterday for the first time in over a year was amazing

I need maintenance friends too ,am struggling with it at the moment to be honest

Hey from Shropshire not far from Birmingham UK

Carrots, cherry tomatoes, raw peppers,cucumber, mushrooms, gherkins. I sometimes have a bit of light Mayo and tomato sauce to dip it in. Also apples and oranges

Ainsley Harriet cous cous is about 150 calories a packet with half a bag of frozen prawns,a mushroom and a few peppers in a wok. About 250 calories and it's so filling . The pizza express under 500 calorie pizzas are amazing . Pasta if it's weighed properly with tuna and light Mayo. Asda do a good and counted range which…

I know exactly how you feel .tomorrow is a new day so just draw a line under today :)

Yeah I have lost 16 stone and 9 lbs all on my own
