@Sued0nim Thanks, I really appreciate you clarifying things for me, it gets confusing at times and I am still learning. Water retention seams bang on actually as I note the bloat when measuring with a tape, the scales I know fluctuate wildly so I couldn't care less what they tell me. I was however tired at low-cal and…

@selina884 & @Sued0nim Do you mind if I pick your brains a little? I am 5'2" 37yo and have lost 15kgs/33lbs in 3 months on 1,350 calories, maintenance for me being a shortie is 1,600 when sedentary. I naturally eat low-carb, it is only due to a preference for high satiety foods which for my peri-menopausal self is fat and…

A timely reminder not to get to caught up in what the scales reflect, thanks OP this post is both insightful and encouraging! :)

Hi Kristen I would love to join, thanks so much :)

Welcome @DebbieNeedham1 :) It is wonderful to have you along for the journey, well done for trying something new. I was a complete beginner when I started this challenge and already feel like I have learned an abundance of poses which is exciting! My flexibility has improved and I am feeling more balanced as I progress, I…

> I was treated to a full body massage for my Birthday and didn't feel squeamish about it whereas previously I would have had a panic attack at the thought of anybody seeing me nude. In fact a few years ago I let a voucher expire because I couldn't bring myself to even book the appointment! > I went shopping and felt the…

Haha...what a silly mistake, must have been wishful thinking. Weight should read 65.7kg/145lbs (not 55.7kg/122.8lbs) Thanks @joans1976 for being my back-up brain :p

I have transformed my body shape from an apple to a pear, not only am I juicy but I finally have some curves... :p (Here is a handy reference so you too can dress for your "new" body shape: calculator.net/body-type-calculator.html)

I would personally love to see a shift in the way foods are marketed at Children, the brainwashing psychology that sees many kids pleading with parents to purchase foods loaded with salt, sugar and saturated fats just because they have seen a well loved character selling the product manipulatively. Adults can make informed…

I started out by walking at night, through Winter. I rugged up just enough to keep me moving fast and incorporated as many hills as possible being sure to walk in a safe well lit area. I also cleared a space in the corner of my bedroom and that is now my exercise nook. I forbid my Husband, child and pets from entering when…

I applaud the OP for all of the awe-inspiring changes that she has made, both physically and emotionally. I have no doubt that this encouraging and very courageous post will be the thing that keeps others striving towards good health! Thanks so much for sharing <3 :*

You are amazing @Louise1491 <3 Thanks for loving me flaws and all :p

Did you see it?

Do you think she is the curious type?

Do you know how to scroll back a page?

Do you think it is a yoga pose?

Did anybody else think jgkoutr's profile pic was an up skirt shot from behind?

Does tea consumption count as drinking?

Forgive me as I really in no way believe I am anything special, however my NSV today was that I had a guy checking me out in the supermarket and it was very obvious, so obvious that my partner gave him one of those looks :#

Grilled lemons = Yum over fish/seafood Zucchini noodles (Zoodles)?

> I despise conflict, but will fight to the death if pushed > I am solution focused and give way too much advice > Idle chit chat bores me > I will expect to hear your whole life story immediately > I will call you out on things if I smell *kitten* > If you are a narcissist I will leave when you are visiting the restroom >…

Nobody told me how long it would take to recognise the changes with my body, that It is sometimes hard to see and that even if your friends/family aren't commenting the losses are...noticeable once put into perspective. Today I was thrift shopping, happily loading up an arm with pre-loved clothing items to tide me over…

Any unplanned day is challenging, also hormonal days are my worst!

@joans1976 It must have been forum maintenance day when you posted this, I am only just reading your replies. Thanks so much for doing the math, I didn't look at it that way initially all I knew was how good it felt (and that my arm muscles were popping slightly). Yay! <3 Your encouragement is always appreciated, thanks…
