This is why I avoid most media. You're giving the people who aired this the response they wanted, you're are talking about them. Just let it go over your head. Ranting about it won't make anything better. Just makes you feel worse. And the report might be diguesting, but its more your issues with yourself that are…

Definitely give it a go. My mum is a hypnotherapist and I used hypnotherapy for weightloss, childbirth, boasting confidence. It really does help. It helps you clear your mind of the things that might be holding you book. Most hypnotherapists offer free consultations. I would meet with a few, see who you trust and click…

Skinny isn't always healthy but obese is never healthy. Hate whoever you want, it will never help you.

Its a grey area. Yes it calories. But its not a bad thing to see some fruits and veggies as 'free foods'. When you're sat there thinking 'I just need something!' you are more than likely going choose the 'free food' than biscuits, crisps, chocolate, cake ect. Pyschological its not a bad idea. Yes it calories but tis better…

This ^^^^^ You're just cheating youself if you eat cleaning calories. Its part of everyday life and already accounted for. If cleaning counts as exercise then there should be an option for 'running around after a toddler all day'. But there isn't, because thats life. :laugh:

I found mine are under estimated. Now I have my HRM working again and I work out calories burned by my Average HR MFP was under estimating what I was burning! No wonder I have been so hungry! Anyway, I have felt much better this week knowing how much I am burning so I can eat back the correct amount. Still lost weight too…

I run too and I have to eat them! I am so tired and can't concentrate if I don't xxx

This is what my opinion too. Put much better and more direct :smile:

I eat my back. I am starving if I don't. ::ohwell: And I find if I'm not well fuelled I can't exercise well and improve. Eating exercise calories just makes sense to me. Loads of peole don't, and I have no idea how they manage it because I would binge if I didn't. If you looking at improving your fitness and are working…

I need 7.5-8 hrs to feel ok. I can live with 7 but 6.5 and under I am horrible! And just can't function! Lol I love my sleep. I find it really helps my exercise and performace if I am well rested. Thanks for the info. Its nice to be reminded I really need to make sure I am asleep by 10-10.30pm :smile:

Treat yourself. On a day you exercise have the piece of chocolate or some frozen yogurt or a small piece of cake. However, if its really bad and you feel a binge coming on I go for a walk. Nice fast pace to some fast pace music. Its great! Help combat the cravings. And I don't have too many bad foods in the house. A weight…

I would start with walking. Try and walk for 20mins 3-4 times a week. The the next week 25, then the next week 30 until you can comfortablely walk for 45-60mins. Once you have done this, I would then start this running program. I did it and found it great. Week 1 Run one min, walk 90 seconds. Repeat eight times. Do three…

I use yoga but not just for weightloss. I run and use yoga to help tone my body and strengthen my core. I feel yoga isn't enough for weightloss itself and cardio is needed too. Have a look one amazon and read the reviews. That what I didn when buying my yoga dvd. Everyone is different and different things will speak to…

If it isn't broke, don't fix it :smile:

:bigsmile:

^^^ Harsh post with a good meaning. You are using this as an opportunity to publically b1tch about someone. Focus on your own success. Don't 'make up' that people have ED's ect by what you see. Two things you need to think about: "There is no use trying to change another person who annoys you. But you can change your…

I cannot funcation unless I have at least 7hrs! 8hrs is much prefered though! I do find I binge more if I have had only 6 or less. Best get off here and go to bed! Its 10pm and I a running tomorrow morning and at work for 9.30am! (1st day back after the summer hols..going to be painful!) Sleep is definitely important I…

^^^^^^^^^^ LOVE THIS!

Until you ahve children you never know how you will bring up your kids. You can have ideas, but you never know.

Thank you for sharing this story. It speaks volumes! In a good way for me :smile:

Its hard to blame ourselves, and easier to blame others. Sometimes its best to not ask that question. Just observe where that person is in their journey, and hope that your thoughts can influcence them and make them think. Direct questions can usually have the opposite affect.

:laugh: loving some of the responses. All good humour! I have to eat my exercise calories or I am starving! I exercise not just to lose weight, but because I love running and I want to get better, improve my times and compete in races. If I don't fuel my body properly then I won't get better. So that's why I eat mine back.…

Myself. Me.Moi.I,,,Simple

22-23. So I can weight anything between 8st 12 and 9st 4. I think thats a realistic goal and gives me a good range I can be in so I won't be too obsessed with the scales going up and down when I am maintaining.

There's not enough privacy these days. People think they have a right to know someone elses business. That's why there is so much more drama and hate in the world because we all know too much now. Keep it private or public. Whatever suits you, your lifestyle and personalitiy.

My parents do Ironman (if you unsure what it is, look it up. They are incrediable :smile:) and they enjoy it, but love being able to eat that cake and have that glass if wine, without it mattering really because they burn so many calories most days! They fuel themselves properly and enjoy their treats too. Sounds like a…

Don't worry, you don't sound defensive. Its your opinion based on your own experiences and I respect that :smile:

Eat normally, drink 2 litres if water a day and avoid high salt foods as salt can help you retain water. I somtimes find avoiding bread helps me, but everyone is different. Don't avoid carbs other wise you will feel awful by the time you get the the wedding.

LOL is the long and short of it!
