Hi. I'll take you up on that. We can kick each other into getting healthier :)

Lentils! My fave new friend. Must admit I usually cook them in a pan on the gas hob but I see on Google they can be done in a microwave. There's a good protein kick for you ;)

Oh wow! Take it steady and get yourself checked by your doc for peace of mind. Hope you heal fast.

Good luck Lolly and welcome to MFP. Don't hesitate to shout out if you need advice, help or just a kick to keep at it.. that's what we're here for. Dave

Yay! That worked! Thanks bud, I will give that a go :)

Waah! When I click on this I get " this video is not available in your country " (UK) :'(

Oh yeah! Sometimes you just feel like "what's the point" but just a few more pushes and you're soon back there. I guess it's a bit like "the wall" that runners are supposed to go through (I'm no runner) so the next time you get that "oh F**** it!" feeling try pressing harder and hopefully you'll jump over that wall and get…

Cheapest hearty soup ever.. Lentils simmered in Vegetable OXO cube (x3) My whole family is hooked on it :)

If you have any spices (tumeric, corriander, cardamom, cumin or curry powder) you could have an awesome lentil and chickpea curry.

Hello and welcome! There's a whole bunch of friendly peeps on here who'll gladly offer advice, tips and gentle shoves when you need 'em. Just shout.

..and meee..! (well September 10th I will be) Love using MFP and love having you guys around to help feel good!

I'm here

Hi. Welcome. Plenty of advice here and lots of friendly nudges from everyone too. Get stuck in!

Hi and welcome. Plenty of us around for help, advice or just here to bug you into keeping going ;) Us over 50's gotta have something to do right?

Hi Alex and welcome. There's a lot of great stuff on here and really helpful people. Good luck with your goal. Dive in!

Marinade everything! Use spices for flavor and chopped tomatoes as a base. Make low cal tasty chilli or fire up your taste buds with your own curry. Make it to your own taste with individual spices not shop bought sauces. Olive oil and lemon/lime start things off, the rest is up to your imagination.

Go on! Do it and show us all how it's done. You're doing great!

I'm in awe! When I press the "Run" button on screen at the gym and get going at 10kph it's just a matter of minutes before the screen becomes so blurred that I keep missing the "Walk" button so many times and I end up doing a whole 0.5k!

Ouch! Sounds painful but I reckon you're in the right place for any support or ideas. This community is flippin' ace!

Rowing machine, treadmill and the fantastic kettlebells!

Photographer - say "low fat cheeeeeeese"!

I will definitely take a look at that. Thanks!

As a fellow "tog" and drinker I just hope when you find "the answer" you will let me know how the hell you did it! I'm not doing too bad.. health and weight are doing good.. exercise and fitness.. I'm happy and getting better. But the drinking... just can't get a grip on that so any advice you have, send it my way please.…

Such a good feeling isn't it? Well done :)

No I haven't weighed in today. Do yo think that's what happened to you? :/
