I guess I just mean more expensive cuts i.e mince with less fat content, more expensive cuts of steak (because steak is my favourite lol), free range chicken/pork Obviously I should just buy cheaper cuts of meat but its just knowing what to do with it that I'm unsure of, hence my post! :p Thanks for your suggestions!

Awesome! Thank you all so much for the suggestions, there's a lot of options here. I actually have a crockpot sitting in my cupboard that my mum left me and I have yet to use - sounds like now will be the perfect opportunity to put it to some good use! :)

whatever it is it looks f*cking delicious :D

Breakfast: Sweet potato hash with capsicum and spinach, chicken meatballs and a poached egg Snack: Nectarine and black cherries Lunch: Salad with lettuce, coleslaw mix, chicken breast, quinoa, cucumber, capsicum, tomatoes and creamy balsamic dressing Dinner: Steak with grilled zuchinni, capsicums and red onion, and half a…

Sure why not. A lot of my meals are added from recipes so might be hard to decipher exactly what's in them though :)

That's what I thought it might be doing. Might just have to stick with that formula in future to make sure I'm not overestimating my exercise calories. Thanks! :)

Hmmm using that formula it would have been closer to about 200 calories.

Sorry, but your response bothers me a lot as it seems you have a real "victim-blaming" mentality. OP is posting asking for exercise suggestions, not a critique on how she should dress or whether or not she wants attention. First of all, having massive tits isn't the easiest thing in the world to hide without having to…

This is super inspiring! Awesome work :)

I will usually meal prep on Sundays, or I'll eat salads which only take about 10-15 minutes to prepare. My favourite place to get ideas for meal prep is from Bobby Parrish on flavcity.com He covers all the nutrition information in his recipes as well as reheating and storage instructions and time frames which is awesome.…

I haven't been diagnosed with PCOS as of yet but I'm pretty sure I have it. I came off the pill a few months ago and now I'm back to having irregular periods and have noticed I've grown more facial hair than I would usually have, so I'm thinking about going back to see a doctor about it. My previous doctor thought it might…

wellington :blush:

i check my weight probably too often. I find the fluctuation in my weight interesting though. Like the other day I weighed myself before I went to bed and then again when I woke up, and there was a 1.3kg difference lol.

Coke no sugar. I find it doesn't have the nasty aftertaste that zero and diet have.

just don't have any friends! easy!

physically; those goddamn manly broad shoulders ugh. /drool

i'm also addicted to soda, but I actually like it lol, particularly coke or vanilla coke. Initially I went on a soda ban and I got pretty awful headaches and didn't do too well at sticking it out. Currently I usually have a glass of diet soda with dinner each night, with the occasional full sugar soda maybe once a week . I…

Thanks! I hadn't really considered rowing machines to be honest, but if they're good for a whole body workout it might be a good idea. I'm just trying to weigh up my best options atm but I'll have a look to see if I can find any of that model where I am :)

Um... Everything lol? Lose weight/fat, be more active, get fit, gain muscle (i'll be purchasing some weights too). I want it to do jogging/running because it's a form of exercise I actually enjoy which will make me more likely to actually exercise

For me it's important because I don't take vitamins or supplements or anything, but I also don't care about my macros. I would say if it's only for 2 weeks you should be a'ight.

i lost 5kg in 3 weeks eating 1800 a day. I can't imagine you could gain on 1600

i don't really have cheat days, rather meals or treats when I can fit them into my calorie allowance. There's been a couple of days where I've gone over but not by a huge amount. Though it's probably easier for me cause my calorie goal is a bit higher than yours.

Such a colorful menu! Real talk though - Would you recommend an air fryer? I love fries but haven't had them in a while. I could bake some with a small amount of oil, but they're not as good as when I use a bunch of oil :P

I usually allow myself to indulge on Friday nights and get a takeaway or something, so I have something to look forward to during my work week. Do you usually work late? My shift usually finishes at 8pm, and I don't get home until 9pm. I used to have dinner once I got home and I'd be starving so I'd stuff my face with…

Last nights dinner: McChicken, Cheeseburger and some nuggets. Still under my calorie goal though. Sometimes you need some fatty deep fried goodness on a Friday night after a stressful week at work.

Good work! I love fries but I've decided they're not worth the calorie intake. My work office is literally above a McDonalds and I have to fight the urge every day with my colleagues going down together and coming back up with all the nuggets and cheeseburgers. I've gone 2 weeks without giving in so here's hoping I can…

i like putting a few frozen raspberries in a container with some vanilla yoghurt as my "dessert". would probably work with greek yoghurt too but i'm not a huge fan of it. other than that i'm hella boring and eat fruit for my snacks lol.

Cheese is amazing. I have it with almost every meal, I just have to make sure I control how much I have. I mean I've had a block of cheese in my fridge for like 3 weeks now and I'm like a quarter way through it so I'm pretty happy with that.

I'm so happy for you :) I said that to myself the second to last time I tried. I was successful at the time, and it did feel different. I lost like 13kg. Then about 3 months in my trainer tried to put me onto this "holistic" diet which I hated and I lost all motivation, stopped training and eating well and gained all of…
