Yes you make a good point to keep it on a medium heat- also don't ever use metal spoons on it- and clean with a soft cloth no metal washing brushes!

Yes the one I have is great- where are you in the world? I am in the UK so don't know if they would do outside Europe- I think it's a German brand. I dry fry everything in this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005473FMO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 P.s. Don't get Tefal - mine lasted about 2 months.

Walking or some yoga is good- lots of nice stretching videos on you tube :)

I'm too addicted to how good exercise feels and how good I feel with a smaller and toned body. Plus seeing people with health problems because of weight/made worse by weight is enough to put me off ever being overweight again!

I think it's up to the woman/man. I only have to shave my arm pit hair as that is a personal preference. I shave my legs and bush every now and then when I fancy it. I would never find it disgusting on someone else though.

I think you should cut it back slowly. Start at 2000 a week then reduce by 100 a week? I do the TDEE method which works much better for me. This means I eat 2000 a day but don't count my exercise calories.

Mine doesn't hurt enough! I need to start using it more- I will do tonight. Any videos would be good for me too. Will follow this!

Depends how much you weigh. For my weight and height that's probably how much I burn a day. My TDEE to lose is 2000 a day.

Thanks so much! Just found them http://lifehacker.com/5979811/the-most-sadistic-apps-that-force-you-to-get-stuff-done

You are all making me feel very lazy.

i need this!

A day without chocolate is not a good one :)

I think I need to print this out and stick it next to my bed!

I think yours and everyone's suggestion is great (alarm clock across the room) I know this is a good idea so might try it next week. Once I am out of bed it is ok!

Yeah that was no choice juice fast, couldn't even have soup as the heat hurt me! Yes wouldn't recommend it. I don't have the piercing any more :P

You are very different then! I could get up at 7.00 and do a 30 minute workout as I don't leave the house until 8.30 I just like my sleep :D

I'm a big offender of this as well! I always end up doing evening workouts!

hehe I'm Emma :) but Alan will do. If it helps, I ate nothing but blended frozen fruit and yogurt when I had my tongue pierced as I couldn't have any solids! I lost 7lbs in a week!

I've done it for years but never followed it as 'a program' I just do it when I fancy and jump between levels depending on how strong I am feeling that day! Level 3 is a killer it's mostly in plank :P Love it though x

Not for me! but 7 days isn't going to do much harm. I wouldn't last half a day I need food :D Good luck

Agree that you could be underestimating food or overestimating exercise! I was probably doing that which is why not logging exercise is helping me :) x

Also- I went on holiday in September and only just got it off last week! Nearly 2 months later! Weight loss is slow- don't weigh yourself everyday!

I have basically been in plateau for 2 years! It's hard. I have just started doing TDEE about 3 weeks ago and I am finally losing some weight again :) I would recommend it- before I was eating back a lot of my exercise calories as I was hungry and felt like I had to earn them before I could eat them. Now I am set at 2000…

As someone else above I went from veggie (for 12 years) to being a meat eater (nearly 5 years ago) I was fatter as a vegetarian as my portions were bigger and I wasn't moving. The protein in meat fills me up. I like having a steak with loads of veggies :)

I haven't given up alcohol for weight loss. I have been in a plateau for a long time after 2.5 stone loss but I don't believe in giving up anything. I try and cut down where I can. I am jealous of anyone who can :) x

You can burn LOADS of calories cleaning! I try to not log mine any more though as I just end up eating it all back. :P I would say heavy- scrubbing/hoovering Light- dusting, wiping. I wore my HRM once when I cleaned for 1 hour and burnt over 400!

Hey guys, didn't manage day 1 as I felt sick so will start off on 25 today :)

She is an idiot. Yes people make excuses but there is far more too it!

SAME! I have so many half read!
