P.s I also moved house and had some serious personal issues last year and it really does effect your well being and motivation - I think I must be a comfort eater thinking about it and it's just got out of control x

Me too - I've never had a weight issue as such - I definitely yoyo but only by 14 pounds of my ideal weight. - That was until October 2013 - I changed jobs from office (took my own healthy lunches) to field based work (bought sandwiches, crisps and other crap) and I also stopped going to the gym as I needed to study for…

Yeah I do feel pretty confident I can get to goal in 6 months - especially as I have a huge target and reason to get to goal! - I changed jobs and was working field based so my usual healthy eating was replaced by shop bought sandwiches, crisps and other crap - I also stopped all exercise! - need to get back to old fit and…

I'm getting married in September - bought my dress in a UK 10\ us 6 so I have a dress size to loose for the wedding - want to loose about 20 pounds! Add me If your in the same boat I totally need to supportive like minded pals!

Or you could do a teriyaki salmon with with spiced greens? you could use pak choi, seaweed any other leafy greens, wilt them in a frying pan with some chili, lime and garlic - yum!!! x

I think i would make a nice chinese style soup (i know soup!!!) 1l chicken stock ( 2 tbsp oyster sauce 2 tbsp hoisin sauce 1 tbsp fish sauce large piece fresh root ginger , shredded into thin matchsticks 300g peeled king prawns (raw would be better, but cooked are fine) Sea weed - thinly shreaded 2 sachets straight-to-wok…

why dont you start with the things you do like, then i might be able to suggest things similar that you could try! x

I am looking for some more support pals also - feel free to add me!

Also if your not going over your calories in the day who cares what time you eat? Not everybody has 9 – 5 jobs and I think we can safely say that all shift workers are not fat!!!

If you don't want to eat breakfast then don't! i very rarely eat breakfast either - i log a banana as my breakfast which i usually eat around 11am! i think you just have to do what works for you and if that means not eating breakfast because you want to save some calories for an evening (healthy) snack then do it!…

I hate the gym - i love classes but i understand you dont always have the time - i do a lot of classes which are on youtube in the comfort of my own front room! It might just be one of those things - stick at it as it wont last long and i am sure you will break through it and start loosing the pounds again - don't give up…

I am 5'4 Gender: Female Current Weight- 140 lbs Goal weigh- 135

my calories are set at 1200 to loose 1 pound a week, if i want to maintain it tells me to eat 1406 - it will only ever drop to a certain level you are not going to end up with 100 calories a day! x

Its tough when your trying so hard and nothing seems to be happening! Have you thought about mixing it up a little - change your diet and eat different things for a change? have porridge instead of yogurt and fruit etc? also instead of hitting the treadmill try a fitness class instead? Sometimes i think we all get stuck in…

I have lost 14 pounds so far and my calories have not been reduced - i get 1200 a day so i suppose you are not meant to go under that anyway - i think they will probs reduce it until its gets to 1200 then stop! Hope that helps! x

Thanks :-)

I would never WANT to eat salad as a main meal - I want slme yummy in my tummy !! Just take it at your own pace hun, dont worry about what everybody else is doing.x

Oh sweetheart its your journey and nobody elses, you need to do it all at your own pace and if that means a pound a week then thats what you do. Your moving in the right direction so who cares if it takes 6 month or if it tskes 3 years.c

Indeed! I totally agree with you :-)

I would have them with spicy tomato sauce and cous cous. X

Hi I think we can really motivate each other - I need you to get me doing more excersize because I dont do any - also I make my lunch and dinner from scratch everyday and I never eat pre-made or processed food really so hopefully I can help you with your diet. Xxx

I just wanted somewhere i could talk about weight loss with people - it doesnt matter to me how much somebody has to loose we are all in the same boat - i didnt want to bore my actual friends with my constant calorie counting/ weight loss ramblings!!! :-)

Yeah i do too - its like a milestone has been hit - when your no longer in a certain bracket! - i have 2 pounds to go until i leave the "140's" and will be entering the "130's" - i am so excited about it!!!! x

I am pretty sure they must all be of a certain age! i am 28 and would never dream of commenting on such a thread!! i only get involved in adult conversations - (not of the xxx nature!!!!) Its not even worth looking at some of those stupid threads! He can add me as a friend as i am not a mean girl! x

I am 5'4 so as long as my fella is taller then me when i wear heels thats fine with me - i think its a ladies thing for your fella to be taller then you - as i am a titch its never an issue! :-)

Hey sorry didnt mean to offend you I have never heard of fasting thought it meant not eating! In that case carry on hun and tell your work buddies to piss off! They probs jealous seeing you make a proper effort whilst they carry on getting bigger! X

The Verve - lucky man Greatest tune ever for making me feel happy!

mmm well you must do what works for you but not eatinf anything in a day is not good for you - maybe they are worried about your diet? By her saying if she was your size she would mean anything would indicate some kind of compliment and your crazy no food days are perhaps un necessary? Your diet is up to you and perhaps…

If its anything like the uk expect rain every day of the week and every week of the year - you just have to try and ignore it and pretend it isnt there! 15 degrees is a summers day in england! hahaha! x

As wickedpixi says its really hard to judge as it is all about fitness, I weigh 145 pounds but I am so unfit- when I run on a treadmill for 20mins I only burn about 200 cals- I think not as I am almost dead after 20 mins so I pressume this calorie loss is for some.kind of fit person!! I try to stick to 1200 cals every day…
