I tend to sip water through out the day as I feel thirsty. This can add up to about 3ltrs a day. I mix some cordial into it sometimes so i don't get fed up with the flavour.

I'm between a UK12 and a UK14 at the moment (depending on the shop of course!) Your photo has inspired me to go home and compare all my old and new clothes!! Great work :-D Really motivational!

@tinkerbellang83 I agree that weighing food is better but when you're eating out you may not have access to a scale. Knowing how to judge area would be a better alternative than completely guessing!! But when I have a scale, there's no comparison :smile:

A (possibly) controversial opinion but I love to buy the vanilla Breyers Delight and top it with some crispy M&Ms!! It's my favourite dessert at the moment :-D A Flake works just as well if the crispy M&Ms aren't available.

I like Halo but it can taste and look a little artificial at times, Breyers Delights is my favourite brand!

I recently had to go to a doctor that was not my usual doctor for a prescription renewal. When he took my blood pressure he say that it was quite high. I explained that I have anxiety and when people are too close to (e.g. when putting a blood pressure cuff on my arm...) my BP tends to shoot up. He decided to prescribe BP…

I would wait it out a bit longer. When I was 18/19 my breasts looked huge in comparison to the rest of my body. I got a lot of teasing for it and longed for the day I'd have enough money for reduction surgery. What I didn't realise was by body would continue to change as I got older. By the time I was 25 everything had…

Some of us have a poor sense of taste and need all 6 to get any flavour!! Haha!! :D I definitely keep the vampires away, that's for sure... ;)

Mysterious and artistic

I use garlic in (nearly) everything I cook! It's had zero affect on my weight loss but I've definitely gotten fewer colds since eating more of it. And my food has tasted waaaay nicer!

No, separate countries. They're both here by pure coincidence!

Tonight I get to see my friend who has moved home from a different country and my brother who is visiting from a different country and I'm so excited!!!

I'm naturally curvey so I've come to accept that there will always be some thigh rubbing regardless, what doesn't help though it trousers made of loud material!! I have a pair of work trousers that make so much noise when I walk feel like the whole building can hear me coming!!! I have noticed my jeans are taking longer to…

That sounds delicious! :o

That's such a pain!! I went out for dinner last night and like you I planned my calories around it and yeah... It was only ok... I could have prepared something similar at home myself with fewer calories, better macros and more flavour!!

I have my daily calories set higher than the MFP recommendation so I eat between 1400 and 1500 a day. I tend not to eat back my exercise calories unless I'm having a hungry day or I've had an intense work out. I never let myself go hungry though. If I need extra food and I've done the work I'm going to eat and enjoy it B)

Rave: Our country is going through a heatwave at the moment and the weather is glorious!! B) Rant: Some people are refusing to conserve water despite a hosepipe ban :(

I'm so sorry to hear you're going through this. I struggle with anxiety too and it infuriates me when I go from feeling great one day to struggling to get out of bed the next... Only thing I've learned over the years is a good therapist is vital to success. I had to try a few before I found one that I clicked with. He…

I drink a lot of water and I've found it's helped my skin, my energy levels and my over all mood. While it hasn't directly affected my weight loss, as other users have said, it's helped me learn the difference between hunger and thirst. Most of the times when I think I'm hungry I'm actually just thirsty :-)

I completely agree!! I've veggie to and it's a little irking when people tell me they want to go vegetarian/vegan to lose weight. There's so much to it than that! I do try to encourage them though, I feel every little helps and they might decide they prefer it! I know more than a few people who went veggie to lose weight…

@stlbluefansarah Great job and well done :-) Keep up the good work! In my friend group, we're all actively trying to loose weight and get fit and healthy at the moment. We're all doing different types of exercises and eating different foods but that doesn't stop up showering compliments and giving pats on the back…

I think I saw them advertised before actually but doubted if they worked or not, another think to add to my Amazon shopping basket perhaps :-)

@GOT_Obsessed @hipari & @ryenday Thank you for all the advice! I'm in Ireland so no Walmart etc. for me but I'll definitely start looking at cycling shorts and men's boxers :-D

Where did you get these shorts?? I'd love to wear more dresses but the chub rub is real!!

Enjoys the outdoors!

Actually yes!! I was hill walking at the weekend and kept grabbing by bum because it wasn't jiggling the way it used to! haha!

I'm going to give it a try this month :-) I've been talking about wanting to do a handstand for months now - today is the day I take action!
