can be hard to work out at home, its the only way i do it tho, im too self conscience to exercise infront of other people even my partner. at the moment iv just been doing some work out videos i found online most of which are around 30 mins long. http://www.women-workout-routines.com/free-workout-routines.html this is the…

some people use a cheat day where they eat what they want, its not a bad thing either cause it kick starts your metabolism if its starting to go slow. dont dwell on the past and just look to the future you can do it :)

wow you look amazing keep up the good work!

hey i live in leicester, orginally from northern ireland, iv been on this a while now, i did drift away for a bit but im back again now and determined to try and lose the weight now pretty sure im at my biggest now :( anyways welcome to mfp and i wish you well and hope you reach your goals. feel free to add me as a friend…

iv read this before too, as too previous comment negative calorie foods is not foods with no calories, all foods have calories but these foods take more energy to digest through the body's system than is in the food itself. pity im too fussy and only thing i like on that list is carrots. lol

im quite a fussy eater so i dont eat egg or seafood either, altho i eat soup for lunch usually tomato cuz i dont like any other lol. you can get the packets of dried mac and cheese thats around 200 calories as well so sometimes i would op for that, soup everyday can get quite boring.

i agree with everyone else weigh it after

you are not eating enough. if you are eating 1200 calories a day but burning 700 of them off through exercise thats basically 500 calorie intake a day that your having. your body has gone into starvation mode and is clinging unto all the fat cause it dont know when its gunna get fed next. when you eat a bit more you will…

wow you look great makes me wanna work towards my goal even more :) well done :):)

thanks everyone for your input i have decided for now i will input it cuz i am absolutly drenched by time im finished. its not like every day housework i wouldnt count that unless im doin a big clean where im at it non stop. after a while i will just raise my activity level.

leicester here orginally from northern ireland. :) feel free to add me too

she has got in trouble she has been tracked down and arrested made the front page news today shes getting charged by the RSPCA for cruelty to animals

i did weigh early this week but today is a week from when i last weighed. i do exercise 3 - 5 days a week at between 40 - 60 mins a time then i walk everywhere too instead of buses unless its too far out of the way.

hopefully i see them numbers go back down soon tho lol

i find that even if i eat all my calories it tells me this because of the exercise i do. it adds it unto the calories that you eat. if this is the same case with you i wouldnt worry about it too much.

im quite a fussy eater so i still basically eat what i did before altho i never really did eat chocolate or anything like that. i was a crisp eater but iv now changed my snacks for lower calories snacks. low fat yogurts, weight watchers crisps, e.t.cu even with dinners i still eat the same just a smaller portion on my…

i use a site on the internet that has some free at home work outs http://www.women-workout-routines.com/free-workout-routines.html its really good really works up a sweat. i love it 20 minute workouts so i do three all aimed at different parts of the body. hope ya find this helpful

keep goin we all have a bad day. and i mean we all but it doesnt mean we are failing. you know doing this may have helped you kick start your metabolism. yes you may have over indulaged but its no reason to stop all today tomorrow is a fresh day start again. alot of people will tell you they have done the same. as for…

i love it too. get so much encouragement here altho i do alternate between this and facebook lol

hope u enjoy it as much as i do :) feel free to add me

i also weighed myself early this week and it says i have gained 2lbs but a lot of people have told me that your weight can fluxuate throught -out the week. also if you are exercising 5 times a week dont forget that muscle weighs more than fat so it might not actually be that you are gaining weight because of what you eat…

like some of the other users are saying its most likely water weight when i weighed myself i also dont think its possible to lose 14lbs in 1 week which is why i question it.

yes thats what i mean calorie intake for today was just under 900 (meant to be 1200) i know what u are all going to say its far too less. i havent had much of an apetite today. i burned off 997 calories through exercise today. meaning i have actually burned off more than i have eaten. i do hope that the slight weight gain…

yeah definately i mean i would have a packet of noodles now an again if im peckish but not all the time. also bumped my excercise up another 20 mins im now pooped haha :smile:

iv not seen the ad for the noodles lol. i did think about doing these sorta diets in the past but i wanna lose the weight for the long term so iv had a healthy size sunday roast for dinner today and just finished doing 40 mins of exercise lol :)

yes i would count it as exercise, i put everything in from food prepartion, cooking to cleaning

on my first week i lost a stone i wasnt eating my exercise calories unless i really needed to, where i would opt just to have a low fat yogurt at just under 100 calories. alot of people say that eating the extra exercise calories help but in my case i dont think its helping i started eating into them this week and weighed…

i always do mine few hours before bed once i put my kids to bed
