  • In a day I can gain atleast 6lbs. I don’t have scales at home so when I can weigh myself it’s never first thing in the morning. Personally I go off how my clothes feel and keep in mind how much water I’ve drank or if I’ve eaten too many carbs or salty foods the days before. The scales are just numbers but it’s easier said…
  • If I got rid of all my loose skin I’m sure I’d weigh a stone lighter. I have it everywhere! I was almost 16stone and now I’m 9st 5lbs so the loose skin isn’t new to me, I do hate it, especially on my stomach, I know I won’t ever have a flat stomach but when i bloat I look heavily pregnant and that always makes me feel…

  • I had cravings last night so instead I had a glass of warm milk with abit of tumeric, ginger and cinnamon. Tastes amazing and sorted my craving out AND I fell asleep super quick so win win 😁
  • I defiantly second this! Drinking through a straw makes me drink loads. I usually add a small drop of no added sugar fruit squash or lemon juice to my water as plain is just meh. Sometimes I add fresh fruit to my water (cut up strawberrries, cucumber or mint leaves are my favourite)
  • I’ve spoken to him and said I only want treats on MY TERMS WHEN I WANT, I’ve also stated that if he ever brings crap home like that again it’s going in the bin. I wasn’t horrible but I was stern! He apologised profusely and said he was stupid and didn’t think and will only bring home treats if I ask him, otherwise if he…
  • I’ve gained some water weight as I’ve just weighed myself at my father in laws, gonna stop weighing myself altogether cuz today is the first day I’ve worn my UK size8 leather jacket, ive felt great all day then I’ve weighed myself an now feel like poop so NO MORE SCALES!
  • I’m sooooo grateful to everyone for posting! I felt like such a cow, so I’ve cut it up into slices and froze the lot so it’s there if I’m craving something sweet. Thank you again everyone!!
  • I’ve decided I’m giving most of it too my father in law but keeping just 3slices to myself. My fiancé is adamant I’m allowed a treat but I want a reasonable treat not something that will use up most of daily calories after two bites. I’m a volume eater so a small piece is not something I can do lol hopefully I will just…
  • I tried the whole eating smaller meals more regularly but ended up snacking loads at the end of the day so I think I’ve gained. Today I’m accepting my volume eating and made a HUGE batch of chilli with soooo much veg and the whole lot ended up making two massive portions at about 500 calories per portion 😁 taking the…
  • When I see my goal range on the scales I get too comfortable and eat rubbish cuz I feel like I can. I still do my exercising but eating is the problem for me. I’m so bloated recently so today I’ve been shopping for lots of fruit and veg and other healthy food. I have some dark choc in the house when I’m craving sweet…
  • I haven’t weighed myself but for the last 2 or so weeks I’ve eaten like crap and I’m now constantly bloated so today I’m restarting. For some reason when I see my goal weight on the scales I relax with my food, I’m still exercising but eating more junk so I’ve given myself a kick up the backside and brought lots of veg and…
  • Ok so last two days haven’t been great but today I’ve started off good. I walked 1hr to work and now I’m on a 12hr shift so I’m gonna be moving a lot and watching what I eat.
  • As a mum to a nearly 4year old and financial worries aswell I get you completely. My husband and me can have an argument and I instantly turn to food. I feel stressed at work I turn to food. Usually my comfort food is cakes, chocolate, biscuits, basically anything and EVERYTHING sweet. My god I can easily eat a 12person…
  • Could be water weight, could be hormonal, could be anything. Don’t let numbers define you. I try to stay around 9st-9st 5lbs. Recently I went up to 9st 11lbs, I was horrified, felt like just giving in but no I stayed strong and ate really well for a week, drank sooo much water and now I’m back down to 9st 2lbs so I figured…
  • Today’s goal is to not cave in tonight to eating crap. I ate crap yesterday but like hell im gonna let food define me today!!!
  • It’s not really a petty reason but since I’ve lost weight mine and husbands sex life has REALLY IMPROVED!! I feel more confident in the bedroom and I get to wear skimpy lingerie instead of really big floaty nighties. And now he can pick me up without me being scared I’m gonna break his back 😁
  • Ive done this for a while in maintenance. Stayed under most days of the week so I can splurge on a day or two. You gain abit of water weight obviously but it’s helped me to not lose my mind and as long as I stay under 9st 5lbs I’m happy. Guess it just depends on the person really
  • I weigh myself only about once a week and that’s only if we visit my father-in-law (I don’t have scales but he does) It stops the temptation of weighing myself all the time if I had some in my house
  • My daughter wanted to watch it the other day so I made her watch it with my husband in the living room while I sat in the kitchen listening to music. I’ve always said at Halloween I will drop kick any kid that comes to my door dressed as that lil f**ker
  • I can’t watch the film E.T cuz the lil bugger scares the crap outta me.
  • Dude I feel you, late night snacking is an addiction for me. At the mo fruit is helping and drinking crap loads of water lol I have a golfers syrup cake and some chocolate in the kitchen calling my name but I’ve promised myself that if I could be good this week then I may allow myself to have some next week but a bit at a…
  • I watch Netflix or exercise or do both at the same time lol
  • How inspiring it is for the whole of you to be under the water in the bath instead of your belly being above water level. Also getting up off the floor is soooooooo much easier and a whole less embarrassing
  • God I love these 🤣🤣🤣🤣
  • Yorkshire biscuit tea 😳😳😳😳 I’m a sucker for a cup of tea and biscuits(typically British lol) but the calories for biscuits are crazy. Popped into Morrisons and noticed Yorkshire tea have brought out malty biscuit tea so brought a box and OMG it’s sooo good and taste like your having a proper biscuit (without the crunch…
  • I didn’t know this but Spotify have stuff to listen to. Audio books and other stuff. I’ve listened to afew meditation ones but they have loads to choose from x
  • I’m the same, Ive suffered with my mental health for many years so I’m on medication to cope. I’ve struggled big time with emotionally eating, especially at work when I do a sleep shift and everyone has gone and my guys are in bedtime and I can chill out I end up eating everything. When I’ve been good I have a look around…
  • After losing just over 6stone I have a lot of loose skin on my stomach area. Hopefully if I stay within maintenance for afew years then the skin will tighten but if not then I’m not too fussed. I’m just happy I can fit into smaller clothing 😁
  • As a mum who works full time out of the house and has a toddler time is of the essence. I didn’t have time for gyms and classes so I brought a second hand elliptical trainer so once my toddler was in bed I could work out or my husband would play with her if I wanted to go on during the day. I now have a brand new…
  • It’s not new but today is the first time I’ve ever tried it..............Milo 😳😳😳 omg it’s an energy drink and its chocolate!!!! I’m in love
