Hey @pennygm72 I was prescribed co codamol but I chose to buy some that was cheaper as you can get them for about £3 ish rather than the high prescription charges also I got put on Lansoprazole which is a gastro-resistant, its supposed to help the build up of acid, I take 1 in the morning an hour before eating, I am going…

Thank you all for your lovely feedback it means a lot, I had chicken last night not sure if I would of been ok or not as my partner brought these jerk chicken parcels, he cooked 2 up, they were small and he didn't realise they had vegetables in them he's such a fussy eater and he offered them to me not thinking and I…

Oh ok, see before January this year I was eating junk food alot well basically I was just eating what I liked when I liked and doing no exercise at all.... not sure if that counts for anything :sweat:

I don't believe in so called "super foods" to me its all about the quantity of meals, calories, fat, carbs, protein, sugar, fibre etc etc but I do have to say I enjoy some of the switches I have made like cottage cheese instead of cheddar cheese and popcorn instead of crisps (potato chips) also I am enjoying foods I never…

I have a cheap alternative to slimfast called in shape, its cheap and I only have it for lunch in the week, does the job of filling me up and giving me some good vitamins and minerals, I like to make sure the foods I eat are low fat, carb, salt and calories and have good amounts of the stuff we need like protein, fibre etc…

I found this discussion to help me out alot, I am 5"4 and this discussion is for 5"4 women.... I know you wanted 5"2- 5"3 but I find this post very inspirational to myself and I hope find this link useful: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1238509/women-54-5-5-with-results-pictures#latest

I love to read so much so I involve that hobby that can involve sitting around into reading when I use my exercise bike, that way I am working out and I am reading and I can exercise longer than I would be able to if I was not reading hehe

Spinach, kale, check out this link: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/iron-deficiency-anemia/manage/ptc-20266647, I used to take iron supplements prescribed from my doctor as I have suffered many years from low iron, also try and reduce caffine as caffiene strips away vitamin A that helps retain iron, also…

So inspiring, Welldone! :) I started my weightloss journey in January of this year after years of eating what I wanted and gaming all day I was 308lbs, between then and now I have dropped down to 254lbs, I still have a long way to go as my goal is to be anywhere between 120lbs - 140lbs, I have worked so hard so far…

Hi, not sure what ready meals your getting from tesco but ones that are 300 cals must be so teeny tiny... also would most likely be so high in salt, your better off eating low fat meat with wholegrain rice and some vegetable or salad as microwave meals are not ideal to eat everyday as they contain so much salt etc.

I eat back between 40% - 60% depending on if its the weekend or not, my daily calorie is set to 1,320, I eat around 1,500 -1,600 and burn between 500 - 800 calories per day, I like to make sure my net is around 1,200 :) I'm 5"4 and 254lbs as of 3d June, I started at 308lbs in January of this year, I have been losing 2lbs…

Hey! I started January this year (2017) at 308lbs, as of May 27th I am 254lbs, losing on average 1-2lbs per week my goal weight is to be between 120lbs - 140lbs, not been a healthy weight since my early teens... my height is 5"4 and I am from the UK, I am also looking for friends with simular goals to myself.

Hey! count me in too :) EDIT: I just realised I am in 2 groups that have 100lbs+ to lose etc... I'll link them: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/3322-100-pounds-with-no-surgery http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/119238-lets-lose-it-100-lbs Always looking for more groups with goals like mine though....

Hey, me too, Midlands here :)

Hey! finally a discussion I can get onboard with, I play a lot of MMOs especially MMORPGs not keen on the whole PVP aspect of things.... used to play WoW... I sometimes play Rift, I play a lot of the free to play via steam.... these days I don't game as much as I used to used to game all day lol but now I play after I get…

Hey! All these fad diets are not worth it... they may help short term but thats it.... short term... ideal for someone already at ideal weight or someone that just needs to shed a teeny amount of pounds.... Long Term is to see it as a healthy lifestyle choice... calorie counting, weighing etc, logging what calories you eat…

Hey Meagan, I started my weightloss journey in January, after years of half ars.ed attempts and fails and being in total denial about my weight etc, I've lost about 3st (54lbs) so far, I still have a long way to go (120lbs ish) I'm 5"4 so my ideal weight for that height is to be 9st (126lbs), I'm kinda the same I don't…

Started my weightloss journey after my 30th in January, I have gone from around 22st (308lbs) to 18st 9lbs (264lbs) still a long way to go, I lost 3st (42lbs) between January and Mid March and since then I have been losing 1-2lbs per week, my ideal weight would be around 9-10st so (126-140lbs) so need to lose 100lbs+

I have to agree with a lot here it's 80% diet 20% exercise, I'm limited to 1370 calories per day, I exercise so I can live on around 1600 calories with a calorie net of 1300, without the exercise so I can eat a little more I would be starving and really not a joy for people to be around me lol, I weigh everything and count…

I think it all sums up to the person, if the obese person is trying their best to shed the weight then no if the person does not want to change then yes, its so easy these days to put on weight, medical issues such as physical and mentally, and its so easy to get into bad routines which then pile on the weight,…

Hey, awesome job on the weight loss! it's true you cannot choose where the weight comes off, my bottom half is my problem area... I saw these workout videos that may help target those areas you're having problems with: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLaxA48Zg-cDC5r7aaVJOQYceZcpQv_gMT and:…

Hey, you shouldn't lose any info in your food diary or exercise diary, only thing that may change is your daily calorie goals, go into Goals next to home, at the top view guided setup and then change your goal, hope that helps :smile:

This post I am going to bookmark to give me motivation in times when I need it, I only started my weightloss journey on the 16th January this year (121 days), I have a long way to go yet, I have lost some, usually 1-2 lbs per week, I have learnt so much and I am still learning, I have tried dieting before and only lasted a…

I've recently had a few days of overeating due to visiting my mum, I am what you call a food junkie.... at home following my normal routines I am pretty ok, cravings don't get the best of me etc but at my mums even though she is supportive and nags at me a lot about my weight I just lose my self control, I forgot my scales…

I am a huge cheese monster, always have been, I was kinda gutted at the start when 40g of light cheddar cheese was still high in calories, I found switching to cottage cheese (onion and chive flavour being my fave) was a lot easier to help with those cravings, also I was a huge crisp person (potato chips if not UK) I'm…

Hey all I'm 30, 5"4 from England UK, My current calorie goals are set to 1370 but with exercise I often eat around 1600 depending on how much exercise I do, I plan my meals a day or 2 in advance my diary is open to all, only been at this since 16th Jan this year but already lost some weight so whatever I am doing must be…

Hey, it all depends whether you're hungry, I wouldn't force myself to eat back calories if you're not hungry, my calorie goal is set to 1370 but I burn about 500 a day so I tend to eat around a total of 1700 so my net is around 1200, but I tend to plan my meals ahead so I can figure out how much to burn so I can make sure…

Hey, if you have access to a pc you can look online for easy at home exercises to do, you don't have to go for walks or have expensive equipment to exercise, you can do jogging/running on the spot, walking around the home, sit ups, wall push ups, crunches, google easy at home exercises or something similar for ideas, with…

Hey, you can only do so much, I was in denial for years about my weight my mum would beg me to eat better and exercise but I would never listen, I found after years of depression and anxiety and the fact I was about to turn 30 was my wake up call, I am personally having similar issues with my fiancee he has asthma and gets…
