THank you! Let's hope haha :)

AH that looks amazing!

Gained half a kilo! (1 pound)

Also, I've noticed I've been eating a lot more carbs and less fat. Maybe these two need a little swap!

Thanks for the advice. Usually 1000 is enough for me. I only need 1400 to maintain anyway (I only weigh 117.5 pounds so I don't need a lot to maintain! :) ) so usually im full. I had mcdonalds today and the calories from McD werent as satisfying as my usually protein-full meals (I usually eat around 100g of protein a day…

wiiiiiiiiiiii great work!!!!

haha on popular vote I've decided to not go through with it. maybe i just need to change my macros :) thanks for all your advice people!

yummmyyyy!

Thank you for your support :) I know you might be right... my TDEE for maintenance is 1,472 and I'm terrified of going anywhere near that value. So I was trying to eat 1000 calories a day. Today I won't be exercising and i'll try the "shock" fast food day :)

Thank you. I really need this. Having the worst bouts of insomnia and nightmares! I'll try these and report back :)

Wow amazing progress!!! May I ask what your lifting routine looks like please?

Wow I'm at a complete standstill. I am 53.3 and have been for many days. No gain, no loss. I think I need to fast for a bit.... urgh! I'm terrified. My plan is as follows (I reserve the right to change the plan lol) Wednesday - fast food dinner (around 1000 calories) Thursday - dinner under 500 calories (anything I want)…

ohhh you're motivating me to fast! Great work!

I have trouble with insomnia and nightmares as well... :/ and im exercising.

I wish I didnt see that. its making me terribly hungry and its not my eating window yet! :) In other words it looks delicious! :D

i would love to have a big yard someday! It doesnt look like its going to happen for me though haha. My dad has a big yard and he always has nice fresh veg so I always take some interest when someone says theyr planting something :)

Also, you might find it more worthwhile to get dumbbells so you can increase the weight as you progress... i know the exercises you can do with both differ slightly so you might prefer kettlebells

Ah I love a good long walk! I'm having bbq chicken tonight as well haha What are you going to plant in your yard? :)

Split it into smaller portions (e.g. 25% of a normal meal), freeze it and then mix it up with other leftover portions or as a side to your main meal :) if you have 4 different dinners split into 4 parts each, you could end up having an awesome meal of 1/4 lasagna, 1/4 chilli con carne, 1/4 of pasta alfreddo and 1/4 of bbq…

Awesome re: pizza!!! :D

Great work!!! :D

haha i keep hoping my period comes (its a week late) so I can blame the plateau on my period ... still waiting...

Could just be water weight. A few days is not enough to know for sure! Stick with it so you'll learn if its the cause or not :)

eat mcd's to lose weight hahahhaha ill try that some day this week :D haha just for experiment's sake of course lol

WOw great work on the 5k :D

I'm reading a lot about progesterone and remember that I read that some of you guys had missed periods. Seems to be worth getting this tested!

yum yum yummm

I like that you add a lot of colour to your meals! Colour makes meals seem happier (to me at least haha) I craved McDonalds yesterday as well but couldn't decide what I wanted so just went home. I think McD is okay as long as you stay under.

:D congratulations!!!! We're all here rooting for you x

You're doing so well! April seems to be a slow month for most of us. Let's make up for it in May. You are doing so, so well!!!
