When I split up, I tried internet dating straight away. Looking back it was a reaction to the idea that if my ex didn't want me, then there were plenty of others who did. I did the loads of first dates, like most people, met some nice ladies and one or two bunny boilers. After about 6 months of that, I started another…

I agree with short walks to begin with, perhaps even as little as 5 to 10 minutes and then log this as an exercise. Remember to take measurements of waist and neck as these are also signs that you are winning your battle.

When I was 18 I won a lifetime supply of the stuff. I've still got the unopened jar!

Definitely not hot, but warming up a bit thanks to this site (at least in my head!)

I started on Metformin in September after being diagnosed with Type II Diabetes. I noticed that my appetite was virtually killed off when I got up to my 1500mg daily dosage. I hardly ever feel hungry and when I do, it's normally thirst rather than hunger. It's been great for calorie control as I have to force myself to eat…

Basmati rice is OK at about 120 calories for 100 grams. I'd go for tandoori fish or prawns. The alternative is a vindaloo or phal to make sure you lose the calories the following morning!

Just drop an 8oz potato in his lap and then see if he thinks it's not a lot. You are showing a great attitude despite the lack of support you seem to be getting at home.

Well done, your hard work is being noticed by those closest to you. Just imagine what those who don't see you regularly will think. Such small compliments are powerful motivators which we rarely recognise.

Me, myself and any future Irene. I was hit with a body blow when diagnosed with diabetes and high cholesterol. I don't want to medicate for the rest of my life, this site shows that it is possible to overcome this condition. Also for my daughters, as it may be a long time before I become a grandpa..

Finding favourite clothes that now fit is a great NSV. Good on the wallet and good for motivation. Congratulations!

Like a lot of people on here, I came on to assist with a lifestyle change. I began logging on to record food but now I am on my path I have begun to record my fitness attempts. I gain motivation from my friends and the messages I see on this site and hope that I give motivation back to others. I hope that when I achieve my…
