You don't have to stop drinking. If you like the beer, stick with that but just incorporate it into your calories. Everything in moderation after all! I love cider and red wine; I'd be miserable if I had to give them up completely while losing weight!

Are you using the app? From what I understand you can only view people's open diaries through the website rather than the app, unfortunately. It took me ages to figure it out!

I've suffered with depression and anxiety all of my life. It's only recently that I've started taking medication and taking positive steps towards trying to treat that, then focus on the other stuff. When I'm feeling particularly low and want to eat I try to distract myself with ANYTHING. Something that makes you laugh…

I've seen these on skinnytaste before but haven't tried them yet but if people say they're good I'll have to give them a go with aubergine or courgette,) because I love both! Plus it might be a good way of getting my massively meat-eating husband to eat something veggie with me as he likes all of those ingredients!

This may sound gross too but I've weighed myself first thing in the morning before my 'duties' and again straight after (I'm curious haha) and it can be up to -3lbs after going! 6lbs is a lot so as people have said some of that may be water weight but some may be poop as well. Just make sure from now on you always weigh…

I don't know how true it is but I was always told that having a variety of colours (be it fruit or veg) gives you a variety of vitamins so I just try to have a variety of colours on my plate/as a snack. Sorry if this is wrong, it's just what I've heard!

3, 2, 1...

We're weird; we use metric for general measuring (cm/m instead of ft/inches) unless we're talking someone's height (we generally use ft/inches for that). We weigh food, etc. in milligrams/grams/kilograms but ourselves in stone. We also use miles instead of kilometres. We just don't make any sense essentially!

Wow, congratulations! (?) I've been keeping up with this thread. At least you know what has been causing the nausea. I'd definitely go to the doctor and get them to confirm it and get the support you need for whatever decision you decide to make. I wish the best of luck to you!

I am vegetarian and any of you are welcome to add me. =)

Great job OP! The only thing I noticed is under the 5:2 recommendation it says 'two days at X calories per day/five days at X calories per day' rather than two/five days at X calories per week!

Hi! I'm not from Yorkshire but I live in York with my Yorkshire hubby. Feel free to add me! =)

I'm also vegetarian and have been for almost 7 years! Feel free to add me =D

I have read through the whole thread and firstly, I need to say to the people calling her 'crazy' or saying he just needs a job and it's HER job to spend more time with him... what kind of 1950s world do you think we still live in? It is in NO way her fault from what I've read!! Victim blaming once more. To the OP: I was…

That's awesome! Massive congratulations!!

Wholegrain basmati and wild rice with sautéed, homegrown, curried veg with a side of steamed broccoli and runner beans! :)

That's wonderful; congratulations! =D

I'm 25, currently 203lbs at 5'4" and a big geek =) I'm a field archaeologist so obviously I love history, particularly Viking history (I have a Masters degree in Viking Studies) and love Norse mythology, naturally. I also like reading manga, but mostly history books hehe. I enjoy playing video games too. Anyone is free to…

It is extremely unhealthy. In my late teens and early 20s, I was obsessed with losing weight... to the extent that I developed an eating disorder. I ate 440 kcals a DAY for about 2 years! I logged everything. I would also exercise to burn 400+ kcals a day so I practically lived at a negative input. I became very sick. My…

@niniundlapin and @3AAnn3 I think yesterday was that day for me and I'm ready to get back to my routine today!

@niniundlapin He did bring me home some wine and it was just what I needed. Now he's heated up my hot water bottle and I'm now snuggled up in bed. I still feel rubbish but it could be worse. =) I can't have snacks in my house because I know I'd eat them! I'm really bad for that around this time, haha. I have to admit I did…
