I'm 33 now. I've only been eating vegetables, fruit and other foods (say lamb liver) since last year. I started giving some fruit a try, and built from there. So I suggest that you start trying some new food, even if it's something every two weeks, or every month. Eventually you'll find new food you like, or even you…

I don't ever look at portion sizes, although I'm not a huge eater and I'm completely satisfied with 100-120 gram of protein. So as long as the daily calories allow to do so, I would say forget about recommendations and have a filling meal that won't have you snacking a couple of hours later. I barely ever snack, and I'm…

Agree, if you've decided to do so, start right away! Don't do everything at one time, but cut something today (soda, etc), then something else tomorrow, etc.

Hi! I ignored a slight pain in the back of my knee for a few weeks and kept on exercising (although there was running and jumping-like fitness classes...). Eventually have had to stop all together since it went worse. So you should at least stop, but in your case might want to see the doctor, since you have a previous…

I second this, although I only tried it doing one DVD. It felt to me like too much talking and explaining the positions but little workout. I went instead for the Ultimate Yogi, and I'm loving it. It is intense but rewarding. If I can do it in terms of coordination, everyone can. The instruction is great, but it's done in…

It looks to me like you are trying to justify to yourself that the hamburger is not as caloric as it appears in first place. To me a portion of meat or fish is around 120-125 g in raw state, having a 200g burger seems a bit on the big side. Although I'm a 1.54m female with a current weight of 63kg, so maybe based on your…

Hi! Good that you sound so happy and healthy! I'm myself in a similar situation as you, have lost my period for like 8 months (in that time I've had it twice midway through), so now I've had my blood tested and will have my results on next week. I believe in my case it's a matter of stress, because I have only been…

Try starting just at maintenance calories, and deal only with the hunger situation. As mentioned above, try other type of foods that might give you a more filling sensation, or changing when you eat. Don't eat in a rush, rather spend a few extra seconds chewing your food, that also will give you a more filling sensation.…

No need to do anything special. You are having and will have better and worse days, and each of those makes up for the rest.

You have a great mindset, so I'm sure you'll steadily keep losing weight and that will allow you to share more quality time with your family. Superb!

Yes, that's great! Keep doing it and eventually it will get easier and easier, as the pounds fall. Plus you'll feel better and proud of your achivements :)

Now that people have brought the attention of the weight loss program, it's true that I would give less importance to that weigh in. But even if it wasn't the case, I would mainly focus on sticking to the trend in your weigh ins... So if in your scale you were X pounds, then after a few weeks you were X - 5 or 10, etc,…

I made a fruit salad with: 1 pear 1 medium banana 6 or so strawberries 30 g or so of cream cheese - full fat a bit of kefir milk 1 teaspoon of sugar (I never have any added sugar, so this felt good) a bit of unsweetened cocoa a bit of cinammon. some lemon to make it more juicy The portion…

I'm following the "Ultimate Yogi" program. Currently on day 30, although one day I couldn't do it so I continued the next day instead. Some days are vinyasa yoga, others stretching, etc. I'm seeing my flexibility tremendously improved, and I believe it's also helping me burn some calories, although I count calories and do…
