  • Omelette, just so versatile. And chicken wings, homemade. Dust them with some oil & spices, so good.
  • Great to connect!
  • Hey I had 5stone to lose but I'm down 2 of that now. If you'd like to be mfp friends add me
  • So awesome reading all your updates (very helpful!). Happy birthday flumi
  • I'm such a bloody noob I had to stop and thank about that! But I get it....bc that's what I've been doing (without really realising it). OH is all about leveling the bejasus out of a thing and then tank tank tank. Thanks for the offer! Unfortunately I'm also building my business and kicking this weight loss plateau so I…
  • Hey Thanks Meghan, did my first fast today (not ever). Did a bit of reading earlier so feeling a bit better versed. Those inflammation benefits will be sweet! The knee is being a bit bold today but I'm tiger balming it and some light stretches. How are you finding 5:2?
  • Hey folks just found the group, had kinda forgot about 5:2 but I've hit a plateau after losing 23lbs so need to shake things up. I need to go away and have a look at the recommendations. I'm currently a little over 13 1/2 stone and I'm 5'3. I'll check in again soon, am currently nursing a dodgy knee (I strained something…
  • Just started season 10 of Diablo today, been playing lots of Don't Starve together.....and I'm bloody starving IRL.....the fecking irony :#
  • I'm just after a session of Diablo 3 (started season 10 today), been playing lots of Don't Starve together (hilarious....right!) recently. We've dipped into Starbound and I've kinda abandoned my farm in stardew valley.... :P def a fan of rpgs but like a bit of dig, dig, dig too! Terraria was my intro to games about 2 years…
  • It's the same for me but I realise that as I lose weight it'll be harder to shift the lbs because my body is adapting. This video does a nice job of explaining metabolic compensation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXTiiz99p9o But I also recognise that by doing resistance training I'm building more muscle which will help…
  • Sign me up!! :smiley: same as that, looking for support but also to help others
  • That is so tough Cheryl, what type of meds are you on? Steroids? I know a few people who struggled with those. Has your doc advised you what might be done? How are your eating habits? Big hugs from Ireland, I'd recommend you check out 'faster eft' on YouTube, it's a style of tapping & I've found it great while struggling…
  • Rose here, started at 15s, wanted to lose 70lbs, lost 14lbs since start of Oct! Nice & steady. I'm looking for more fun people to share this journey with. I'm a kayaker from Ireland who loves podcasts & a good book! :)
  • Hey folks I'm back on here after a bit of a long break. I have around 70lbs to lose. Had surgery on my ankle & knee 4 yrs back so generally walking and jogging are out. I kayak, well I haven't much this year but I'm getting towards my Eskimo roll, looking forward to getting my level 3. I'm focused on cleaning up my eating,…
  • Not sure if anyone replied yet @NicholeAckerman but if you go to their profile you'll be given the option there :)
  • Hey I tried to friend you because I too would like to connect with people who want to chat and support and motivate and learn together! but I couldn't find your profile, ie when I clicked on the link it said the URL wasn't found.... strange interwebs goings on!
  • I hear you on the motivation front @Kalysi17 ! I have tons of knowledge on many fronts but have struggled to keep it going in the past. I'm back on here because the BF declared last weekend he was fed up being over weight and asked if I was on to give it a bash. I've been wanting to do something so that was a good kick in…
  • Great stuff Jo! I love your hound, beautiful colouring. Here's to winning!
  • Ireland, bit all over, from the West Coast, Galway, studied in Limerick, currently in the midlands. So I'm a nomadic Celt! Just back on here and looking for fun and friendly motivation and support so pls add me.
  • I'm 35 (but feel like I'm still in my 20s, I'm taking that as a good thing..... :P ). I went and fell in love with a gamer (he has other attributes but for this convo....) so now I know about things like steam and twitch and I flipping LOVE 'Zero Punctuation' (even if I don't get half his references..... #noob). I'm…
  • Here's a great site that I've used in the past. Agree with @captbklee on push-ups, dips and planks, also things like squats and lunges and have some starter weights for things like rows (I use some gallon water containers, depending on the exercise will depend on how full they are!).…
