ooops :embarassed: I've only been using this site on and off for the past year and it's been there all the time - no wonder I'm blonde.... Thanks for your help - much appreciated. :flowerforyou:

Many thanks for your help Love the idea "Stop thinking high volumes of low cal. Think lower volumes of higher cal." Have printed your ideas off and I will try putting them into action... :smile:

Thanks for the answer. What exercises would anyone recommend specifically. I cant get to a gym so any exercise would have to be done indoors, probably while I'm cooking dinner. I work full time. Thanks

Thanks for your help. I think I may give the protein a try. Never thought of using the microwave for scrambled eggs - and I suspect if I added mushrooms and / or tomatoes it would bulk it up for hardly any calories.

:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :sad: :sad: :flowerforyou: totally agree. Lots of manufacturers are tending to do this now and it makes me so cross - (especially as the writing on the back with the correct calorie count per packet is SO SMALL ) grrrrrr. :angry: :angry:

McVities Plain chocolate digestives -- cant eat one - got to have the lot....

Ditto ! I do it on Fridays and Mondays. !

On line dating. I paid for three months, chatted to him on the first day, met him on the 3rd day and never looked at the dating site again.... We've now been married five years... Best £10.00 I've ever spent !!! :love: :flowerforyou:

:laugh: :bigsmile:

Good idea - exactly what I do - I find the little Variety boxes and similar boxes with Nestle are good for this - more choice. Does anyone in the UK have any other ideas ??? x

OH YES....!!! And I'm nearly 55 and she STILL does it.... PLUS she weighs about 125 lbs and is about 5ft 2in and thinks she needs to lose weight !!! Probably why I've been yo yo dieting for years - and still am.... Also probably why I see myself as bigger than I am.. UK size 12 and 5ft 3in and 146 lbs - ok I weigh more…

Very interesting... Maybe explains that following MFP on and off for over one year on 1200 cals a day (I'm 5ft 3in) my start weight was 147 - went down after about 6 months to 140 - now it is 146...................I think 1200 to start with is okay BUT personally speaking I think I found it quite limiting - long term - I…

You know, I think you're right. How come no-one has said that so succinctly in all the time I've been dieting. thanks, gonna have a rethink I think... x

LOL I cant eat lamb without mint sauce and I cant eat bacon without Daddies sauce. :bigsmile:

In a word - havent a clue. But I would be interested in any answers

Hiya I'm 53 - been dieting on and off as long as I can remember. (Mum's fault - she was always dieting). BUT when I look back at old photos of me I dont know why !!! Never been really really big - biggest ever was 11st 4 and eating cos I was depressed. (I'm 5ft 3"). I'm now 10st .2lbs and I want to lose 12lbs but MFP says…

...and the nurse said "you'll feel a small prick" !! :laugh:

Hi I found the site the same way. I'm 53, from the UK and I'm an alcoholic ..........:laugh: .ooops no, thats not right. I'm 50 and from Kent. Feel free to add me.

I watched this and found it very interesting. I can understand why they say "chairs kill". However what do you do when you HAVE to sit at a desk all day and type all day ? :grumble:

Where did you find this diet ? Is it on MFP ? Thanks

Hmmm - Thanks for your answers.:smile: Does anyone know which carbs are the worst offenders ? ... I've looked at my daily intake and it is always high in carbs - I seem to live on mostly carbs, so I feel that maybe it's one particular type of carb ?!? , otherwise I would be bloated all the time instead of occasionally. I…

Hi I used to live in Durban - sigh !! Many years ago now (26) but I still miss the sunshine and the sea sigh sigh sigh. Always said if I won the lottery I would take my hubby and my daughter and her hubby out there for a holiday. My daughter was conceived there and I actually left at 7 months pregnant. I can almost feel…

ME !! I met my husband through a dating site - think it was called Udate (not sure). I was only on it one day and I had quite a few replies. You do have to be careful though - one guy was a bit sleezy but i could tell that from his messages. My husband gave me his mobile number and the same night we texted each other…

Thank you. :smile:
