  • I got really frightened by this feeling when it first happened. It feels like someone is squeezing your windpipe from the inside and i feel the need to tip my head back to straighten the windpipe to try and relieve the lump feeling. I went to doctors had tests for other things but nothing found. It is now a constant that…
  • Your answer is in your first few words "special". You should enjoy the day but resolve to come back to normal eating tomorrow. Most days aren't special so celebrate. You have to fit life into your plans so definitely enjoy that wine. Have fun ;)
  • That is fantastic. Well done. Keep reducing that number in 2013. Happy New Year.
  • I am one of those who find it a problem doing exercise. I have full use of my legs and arms but suffer real bad from ms fatigue. My problem is judging just what I can manage to do without setting off the fatigue which renders me useless. However I know that I must keep moving while I can . I do an hours exercise with an MS…

  • :smile: In days past I can see myself saying how ridiculous to log housework, however having been diagnosed with MS your whole life changes and doing anything strenuous for me is a real milestone. Having an oH who cycles 30+ miles and gains numerous calories can bring you down. I love the fact that I can log movement of…

  • Hi there, I too love this site. It is great to see how many calories are in what I eat and explains some of the reasons I didn't lose weight eating healthy food on other diets. The only way to go here is to be totally honest with what I eat and take the trouble to log it. It is great to have support from others and to…
  • Glad you have joined us. It isn't easy but I think you are ready to help yourself. This site has been a revelation to my husband and I. We decided use the food diary properly and when you log everything that passes your lips you realise things need to change. Get your wife involved and together you can plan your journey to…

Its great during the week but when weekends come along the willpower is stretched but knowing I have friends watching and willing me helps. Would love to…

  • I add 1oz parmesan to a pot of quark (skimmed milk cheese) and it makes a whole lot of yummy low calorie cheese spread which satifies the cheese cravings for me.
  • on a jacket potato instead of butter.
  • Hi Nicki welcome aboard. I'm in Worcester. This is a friendly supportive site. The ability to write down what what you eat and see the calorie count is scary. It seems to suit me though and I hope you have success. Would love to keep in touch with your progress.
  • Hi there, was interested in your comment. Having had a peek at your food diary, if you have seriously written down everything you consume then I forsee a problem as there are very few or on some days no vegetables fruits or salads listed. We all seem to fixate on the number of calories we put in and should really start…
  • Hi I;m in Worcester UK. I also have to lose some weight to get me into the healthy area of BMI. Finding this site is invaluable for bringing me back down to earth on calorie counts. Before coming here I would think I was eating healthily and be disappointed that the scales kept going up. I have been motivated to write down…
  • mmm. sounds lovely.
  • Welcome Tony, Ditto on the site. My husband has been happily using it via his iphone and losing weight. He has never been into any other sites or plans so I joined and its a good site. Good luck on your weight adjustment. Cuba would be a great motivator.
  • When in Florida got given biscuits with my KFC. I would call your biscuit a flat scone. Very tasty it was though.
  • Once you start putting details of the biscuits in the caloie counter you may see why you need to cut down on them. Good luck Pete.
  • Great news that you have decided to join the rest of us. It sounds like your body has been through a lot recently so shifting a few pounds is a great gift to yourself. This site will make the journey easier as everyone will want you to succeed. Welome aboard.
  • Hi there hope you had a good day today food wise and feelings wise. I have multiple sclerosis and know how hard the fatigue hits. My partner has taken up cycling and being in general good health gets in quite a lot of exercise. I have always felt deflated and guilty that I cannot join in BUT if you have a look on the…
