  • Hiya - just to let you all know I'm going to be closing my MFP account soon - I love chatting to you all and doing the challenges, but it's not really helping my weight loss, and I feel I could be doing something more productive with my time right now. Have a lovely Easter weekend. Annie in the UK x
  • Forgot to say I weighed today (I'm a Wednesday weigher because of the BLCs I do here on MFP, and then continue weighing on Wednesdays cos they also put on an interim challenge for us) anyhow, I weighed half a pound lighter than I was before we had our hols so pleased with that :-)
  • Hi everyone @harringtona1 - Hope your weekend trip goes well. I keep thinking I should make it a thing where I do some chores before I get to do what I enjoy. The chores don't get done as often as I'd like around here, and then I think I feel anxious, unsettled etc because I know the chores need doing, whereas if I did the…
  • Just a coupla little photos of Cornwall :-)
  • Good morning everyone @pamperedlinny - tonight? Tonight is chicken cooked in a jar of Loyd Grosman Korma curry sauce, brown rice, broccoli and cauli, followed by cherry pie and custard :-) @dogwalker157 - well done on all that logging! ok - ttfn - Annie in the UK (GMT) From The Message - "Walk with me and work with me -…

Is anyone up…
  • @pamperedlinny - ha ha! Well we went to Cornwall and it rained all week! But we did enjoy our time away and both feel better for it. There seem to be a lot of people joined us recently - anyone up for a roll call?...
  • I'm back - had a lovely relaxing holiday and am now ready to get back on track with my food and exercise - didn't do too bad on holiday either so that was good - I will check the chat to see what's been happening! :-) Oh one thing I wanted to say - whoever was talking about the set point thing? Well in "The End of…
  • @HASWLRS - Have you read The End of Overeating" by David A Kessler? It's an eye opener. We all feel so bad that we overeat but maybe it's not all our fault...
  • @Ann262 - yes in the book The End of Overeating David A Kessler says palatability in the science world means it makes you want more, and the other term is hyperpalatable. I am the same - the Nutella just disappeared but the peanut butter is still there - I can only eat so much of that and it is not so moreish, but I am…
  • good to see you again Susan :-)
  • welcome. well done for posting. you sound like you've done pretty well to me. you will find a way that works for you :-)
  • yes i was just about to say - correction. 1 teaspoon of peanut butter is more calorific than 1 teaspoon of nutella except if the one teaspoon leads to the rest of the jar. :-) you have no idea how much better it makes me feel to know i am not the only one but that just proves the point that the guy in the book was saying…
  • yes logging doesnt stop you eating does it. it does make you realise waht you thougt was fattening stuff isnt so bad and some stuff is much worse than you thiught. i lost a stone or so on whole30 which i only stuck to see if i was intolerant to something. that was december. havent lost anything since really. new plan…
  • Hi again everyone! @Harringtona1 - Anne - Yes it is so nice to have such a lovely group of people for encouragement :-) @Dogwalker157 - Enjoy the week with your son - does he have to come far? @Ann262 - Ann - Yes interesting how we seem to sleep better when we eat better :-) @Haswlrs - After that comment I had to look up…
  • Good morning everyone! @Pamperedlinny - Linda - I'm BMI 38.2 at the mo - wow wouldn't it be good to be a healthy weight... I'm looking forward to that day :-) I have had Barb Raveling's books and they are good but just didn't hit the spot for me. I have a coupla Christian books which I will read/re-read in the coming…
  • Good morning everyone! @spaigewrites - Welcome! @Ann262 - Ann - that recipe looks lovely - but hubbs doesn't like seafood, and I don't know where I can get nice shrimps locally... I will keep an eye out when we go to the beach in future. AFM (as for me) - I made a *firm*(!) decision - starting tomorrow (Friday), I am going…
  • Hello again everyone! @Haswlrs - Lisa - Funny how we have these "enough - this has to stop" weights. Mine is/was 18 stone (242)... I lost a stone (14 pounds) a year for a few years and kept it off for over 10 years until 2022.. My "enough - this has to stop" weight needs to change. Permanently. Actually I guess it's the…
  • Ok I read the conversation so far! Great. I am 60 later this year, by the way. @Sista67 - Susan - Thank you so much for starting this conversation! @Dogwalker157 - I would have eaten the cake as a bonus - it doesn't happen every day and trying to eat less for the rest of the day would just make me hungry and deprived...…
  • Hi - just noticed this thread last night so I thought I'd join in the fun? I am a Wednesday weigher as I do the BLCs. Today I was 1 pound up on last week. I usually post a sort of weight history on Wednesdays as it helps me see the true picture. I will go back and read the thread later today. ok - ttfn - Annie in the UK…
  • Hi - can I join late? I was thinking maybe I can start on Sat 4th Feb? Might take me a while to get the hang of what I'm supposed to do... :-)
  • Hi everyone - I just heard about this team so thought I'd join so I don't miss the next challenge when it starts. I will probably take the opportunity to use the blog facility too, once the next round starts. I don't do much exercise apart from walking and want to get into other types of exercise. ST, TNT, and using my…
