Homemade pizza on pitta bread Baked spuds and coleslaw with cream cheese and avocado

Happy Birthday too me. I had a great weekend. I think my food intake was pretty good but wow I drank a lot. I had planned to take the entire weekend off and not log at all. Back on the MFP bandwagon today after having a fab time with friends. Off the drinkies again now until December 3rd... this has all been preplanned.…

I was 253.5 lbs in the beginning 249 when I started with MFP 216.7 now and goal is 165 Nearly half way there :) Just keep going. I will probably reassess my goal weight after I reach it.. I ideally would like to be a size 10.

Its hard work being a carer and trying to make time for yourself. Its great your thinking ahead! Hardy soups. There are some lovely filling soups made with lamb shank and pearl barley which come out lovely and thick. Spiced rice dishes can usually be made in quantity with whatever vegetables you like in one pot and then…

My son being diagnosed with leukaemia and the three years of chemo that came there after (now in remission) My husbands affair The dissolution of our marriage and our divorce Losing our home and being homeless with a very unwell little boy and my youngest son who was a toddler at the time for around 6 months My mother…

I wouldn't worry so much about what other people do or look like. EVERYONE has their own issues and is usually unhappy with themselves in one way or another. I have found in my close group of friends, a group who has their *kitten* pretty much together (or so I thought), they have all had dramas or issues of some kind. I…

Welcome! That very same thing happened to me at Dreamworld a few years ago. I wish you all the best! Just keep going... at least that is my motto thus far.

Good work!

Red bull and 30 minutes... You won't have a problem after that

Just use light mayo. Or make your own? No substitute in my opinion.

Straight out of the tin with olives, fetta.. eaten with a torn up pitta bread. So yummy.

Fried rice? I make a fried rice and put tom yum pasta through it and some fish cake and prawns for spicy rice. How about kedgeree with cod and eggs? Biriyani with chicken? What sort of rice dishes were you looking for?

Mandolin and my BBQ outside. I would love a kitchenaid mixer but I need to paint the bedrooms and buy the kids new bedroom furniture prior to making one of those "appear" in my house :)

Great work. See you stuck with the Atlanta styling :D All the best for the future

Awesome! Nice arms ;)

Awesome work! I always say "just keep going" :)

Kmart all the way for sweats because who cares what you look like. I have been researching compression pants to keep the wobbles in check for running. Happy to spend more for comforts sake. Will never buy Lorna Jane on principle. I saw a staff member snicker to another staff member about a lady who was in there once…

I love him. I think he is kinda groovy in an 80s fun kinda way and quite frankly if you can have a giggle whilst you get moving then that's awesome. Exercise is meant to be fun right!

That all looks so delicious! Its only lunch time here and I had a homemade pizza on pita with slow cooked shredded chicken breast, mushrooms, onion, olives, cheese, tomato base and oregano sprinkle. Would of loved some sundried tomato but I am cleaning out the cupboards so we are only eating whats around until Wednesday :)

I think a thank you is a perfect reply. It acknowledges that they have taken the time to see your doing so well and support you with positive comments.

Not obsessive :) Your heading away and you have an event to attend! I believe that if you look good you feel good so its good to take time and plan and feel confident. Enjoy your week!

Thats some great progress! I hope to be that successful over the next 6 months. Keep it up.

That is a lot of steps! Well done. One day at a time and you will do just fine. All the best for your future days with mfp.

Just for today... I will take an afternoon walk to meet my partner after he finishes work and walk with him home. I will do an exercise video at some point throughout the day. I will stay in the calories and try and work towards being closer to my target for the day. I will make a big jug of unsweetened cold steeped tea.

Good luck. Let us know how you got on and what you had for dinner. Hopefully it was something delicious and you had a nice time with your daughter!

Spray on shoes were never the answer.

I would try and eat lots of yummy fresh fruits, veggies and herbs. I would also try and get out and go for a light walk if your up to it. Fresh air always does me the world of good. Make yourself a big pot of veggie or chicken soup. I am one of those that eats a lot less when I am unwell but I try and stay functional...…

Pho :) it's delicious and fixes everything but a bad hair day :) I eat leftovers a lot for breakkie a lot or just regular foods that aren't stereotypically breakfasty.

Enjoy. I always heather hot and sour soup and the veg tofu stirfry. So good.

Broccoli salad with an Asian style dressing. Russian salad which is potato salad with carrot and peas. Roasted veggie salad which can also work equally well with veg done on the BBQ tossed in balsamic.
