I'm a stay at home parent, the majority of other parents at my eldests school are normal weight. There are 2 very super oebese mothers, and one obese father, then me who is also obese. The rest vary between average and slim. I see more slim people about because, well, I guess they are more confident to go out in public?…

Bodybuilding and powerlifting aren't the only ways people lift weights...just sayin'...totally off topic however. Some of us do olympic lifting because it is fun, and I find the movements assist me with feeling strong and mobile. I'm 4'11" and 81.8kg (180.5 pounds), I'm having a few weeks of eating to maintain just because…

Where in the worl is OK? Sounds like an interesting place name. Hope you have success :-)

Ok, weird. I changed my units to calories and now it says I still had some to eat for yesterday. I don't want to have to use calories, we work in metric here! Is this a known issue? Is something getting lost in translation between the 2 energy units?
-
I can't get over how it is legal/ok in the USA to state something is "free" of energy or macros. Do things like Coke zero etc also state that? Everything seems well labled here. I cringe when I see people eating these No Cal items, like I've seen a something-farms (Waldo??? Walden?) strawberry jam, peanut butter and other…

Aren't we all doing some form of IF, anyway? We eat dinner abiut 5:30 here because we have small children, then I don't get a chance to eat breakfast till about 11am the next day. Never considered it fasting. I have to take the eldest to school, the next one to kindy (preschool), then the baby and I go for a walk so she…

I'm only doing low carb/keto because of the appetite suppressant factor, and I NEVER have carb days. If I feel like i must indulge, I buy myself a huuuge piece of meat and stuff myself silly.
-
Dude, these threads are so confusing when you don't live in the USA. What you call a sausage, I am sure is not a sausage here. Sounds more like a deli meat or a salami? A Sausage to me is something a butcher would make, with beef or pork, in a thin skin. And a brat, what is that? Apart from a naughty child. I have 3 of…

When I was 252lbs I was a UK size 26 @4'11"

Never ever had a doctor weigh me?! Yikes. I can't see how that is something they need to know. If he/she wanted to know for some important reason, like an adult they would trust me to know what I weigh and just ask me. Yes I weigh each morning, naked, after a pee. It's very cold in NZ right now and we have no heating so…

I'm 4'11", I am 83.8kg (a hair under 184lbs) and breastfeeding an almost 12 month old. I'm averaging 1600-1900cal a day and losing about 2kg a week (a couple of pounds). I'm not exercising at all right now because my husband has taken over my workout space with some woodworking project and I can't reach my rack! But when I…

No it doesn't. It means exclusive breastfeeding - no solids, formula or liquids other than breastmilk.

Also, the would bread does look nice! Still surprises me how sweet American bread is though. Sweetener in bread sounds so weird! I'm in New Zealand so don't have access to a lot of the stores or brands here. I can't find any of the things like almond flour etc I see in so many recipes. Online stores have it but the expense…

If you don't mind cold foods, you can boil some eggs the night before and de-shell and pop into the fridge. I like to slice in half lengthwise, dig out the yolks and do a curried egg type thing. I mash the yolks with mayonnaise and curry paste and soon back into the egg halves.
-
We don't refrigerate our eggs, do you guys? Eggs I imagine might be difficult to carry.
-
I would throw it all away, unfortunately I don't live alone. I have a baby, two bigger kids and a husband who all dig their toast! The house is full of tempting foods. 'Just don't do it' wasn't really working for me yesterday so I just needed a little kick up the backside. I've gotten everyone else a little lower carb, but…

You are not alone, for sure. My stomach hangs down like a sack of sand. I get constant fungal infections under my "sandbags". My highest recorded weight was 253lbs, or s BMI of 52 at my small height. I did lose about 80-something pounds in 2015 but put a bunch back on. I have horrible skin that drives me mad.

I found I used a lot more than the 500 calorie reccomendation when breastfeeding. I did read a couple of studies that indicated the actual amount of extra energy you need is more like 700-800, but they round it down to account for extra body fat gained during pregnancy, to cover the extra couple of hundred calories. While…

1673.04 - haha. I work in kilojoules so didn't even have a clue how many calories I was eating. I'm 34, 149cm (4'11"), losing slowly and steadily. Don't know how many pounds I am, pounds annoy me, I use metric measurements. I was 85.2kg this morning, I started at 89.9kg. I lose about 500-700g per week. I am breastfeeding…

The values here are for raw, and I weigh all my bacon in grams before cooking. I also have been known to lick the pan when it cools down! How strange to get a cooked value on the packet!
-
I'll dig out some pics later - I'm 4'11" and lost about 90lbs in 2015, in just under 8 months.

Nah, they have micro penises.

My husband is 5'6" and 161lbs. He's bangin', smoking hot, to me anyway.
-
She's pretty short though - 30km would be an enormous amount of steps. I'm 4'11" and that would get me about 50,847 steps at my usual pace. My walking stride length is 59cm.
