Water Melon twice today. Satsuma. Large salad. But someone has hidden my carrot sticks! I'll have some olives later... And maybe another salad!

You burn the contents not the cell. After that. I don't know what happens to the cell. If it's empty does the body realise it's no longer needed? Or do cells always get replaced after they die?

Nice work with exact 100g! I'm not so precise. But I've had The usual banana (remember that band?) 450g water melon Stir fry vegetable. Roasted mushrooms onions and capsicum 10 olives A few carrot sticks. A bit of veg in my omelette. Including very hot green chilli ':(

Snap. Same here. 2x30 seconds for 2 days. But today I had a severe cramp after second set.

I just posted a pic of alternatives when you get cravings. I'm not sure how to post pictures in forum. So check out my wall. But for chocolate cravings suggestions include dark chocolate nuts seeds fruit whole grains and greens. For fizzy drink craving suggestions include sesame seeds broccoli and mustard. Give it a try...?

This is great! I love sauteed veg. Or slow roasted. Going to check the ingredients on that ice cream. I hope it's not a trick. Eg using corn fructose syrup or something. That's just sugar!

Exactly. Can't avoid natural sugars. But adding sugar out eating (processed) food with added sugar should be possible... Errm.. The thing I noticed was how sweet things taste once the routine of avoiding added sugar starts. Previously I found even coffee with nothing added has a sweetness. Fruit and veg starts tasting…

OMG avoiding added sugar is really difficult! Almost every loaf of bread has added sugar! Even the Chipotle Sauce I added to my tomato juice has added sugar! It's supposed to be a HOT sauce. WTF!

Grrrr! I wrote a message and it's disappeared! Shortened version. @OliveGirl128 I like the idea of riced cauliflower. Already found some recipes on YouTube. My results for yesterday.. 1 banana 1 satsuma 350g watermelon Large salad with bell peppers and cranberries. Half a tomato Tomato Juice (spiked with Worcestershire…

Chocolate Almond Milk! Like it already...

I have a pic of craving replacements somewhere. If I find it I'll post on my wall. The main one is dehydration causing hunger or cravings. Also cravings caused by incessant advertising and marketing creating psychological desires rather than physical hunger.

Hmmm. Does that mean I can blame my mum for over-feeding me when an infant? I don't think so. She says I was a big baby so perhaps we're talking genetics or what she was eating during gestation? She did over-feed, though, I reckon. And my appetite couldn't be sated (is that a word?).

Don't all cells die and get replaced? http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/whoami/findoutmore/yourbody/whatdoyourcellsdo/howoftenareyourcellsreplaced I'd hope that by losing ("burning") fat the fat cells would first shrink and then not be replaced when they die. PLEASE! "50 million cells die in the time it takes you to read…

Thanks @French_Peasant for the advice. I'll take it slow. I don't think I'll count potato as generally I don't have time to cook them in a healthy way. Not sure about legumes. I do like Fava beans and they're quite healthful. So might include... In the end yesterday was 1 Banana Large salad including delicious roasted…

I'm a new arrival. Still getting started. We're 10 days into August so I'll set myself a 40 minutes target for end of month. What do you think? WML!

Brilliant! Although I'm no where close to doing a 5k my humble suggestion would be increasing distance. Would that burn more calories than improving speed?

The 800F&V team

Yesterday... Tomato Juice does that count? Banana Lots of carrot sticks Roasted mix veg. About 200g. Sweetcorn. Very nice. 100g. Not bad for a start? Today so far. A banana. Hmmm...

Really useful advice!

Only eat in overpriced Times Square. Watching your wallet/purse will mean eating less!

Real fighting talk! Sabotage will be interesting. But beware. Revenge is a high calorie dish best served cold! If you can resist I'll need tips. I shopped the edge of the Mart to avoid temptation yesterday!

Haha. Was the idea of the buffet to have a super high SW to give you a negative head start? Clever...

A huge problem with fresh produce is stores only stocking perfectly shaped and coloured items . Anything that looks of isn't stocked so there's more waste and higher costs . The shape d isn't matter for 800g. Any places sell oddly shaped cheaper f&v ?

Another problem with sweet at night is it'll make it more difficult to sleep and then that's a vicious circle. Try Chamomile Herbal Tea. If made right it has some sweetness and is soothing for sleep.

Added sugar is bad and can be reduced. Natural sugar occurs in most edibles under the sun. I support the idea of no added sugar. I'm in for next 21 days on that. Tricky one for me coffee creamer - yep added sugar! Likewise the stick packs of ready mixed coffee 3 in 1. I had one today so I'll start the challenge... NOW! o:)

What's RNY

Essential viewing for anyone trying to lose weight. Understand it so you can attack it!

This is a proper challenge thread. I'd like to suggest a non weight loss measure of success. Example. Biggest reduction in 5k time? Or biggest increase in max plank time
