Just wondering how we all are today as I am on long term sick at the moment I have had more time than I like to think about things I cant tell you how glad I am its the weekend so DH is home (well he will be in about an hour) it means I have human company - dont get me wrong I love the dogs to bits but its hard to hold a…

Hi Nicky I too have used cambridge and tonight I was just thinking that I so enjoy carbs so what am I doing think I will start a more nutrionally sound plan come monday H x

fantastic - my first target is to be overweight too :):)

you can easily lose the the weight but your body is likely to be a different shape to what it was before 6 years ago I weighed less than I did when I left school :)

I ALWAYS keep a bag of frozen cauli in the feeze and make a cauli cheese thing I use creme fraise and grated cheese and finely chopped onion mixed with the cauli adding pepper herbs salt to taste grated cheese on top and throw it in the oven botht he creme fraise and cheese are reduced fat and with a large salad it makes a…

all I can say is good job you arent a strick Buddhist or a Jain

that is not enough go into your edit pages and change the amount of fibre to 25 or 30g I just ignore it and eat what I want of fibre

cauliflower is actually a fairly low carb veg here is a recipe I make quite often and will actually be making it tomorrow DIVINE CAULIFLOWER CARBS 7.7G PROTEIN 14.8 Per serving serves four I med cauli in even sized florets 1/4pt sour cream (I use half fat creme frais) 8oz grated cheddar (I use half fat cheddar and only…

I do I posted on my news feed and in my blog (on here) how I totally hit the brick wall yesterday I just woke up totally low and had been fine for months add me as a friend if you want :)

add in some nuts, seeds , avocado and some olive oil have some peanut butter its quite easy to add in little bits here and there a few chopped nuts and seeds sprinkled over food the problem with not getting all your fats in is you could be missing out on fat soluble vitamins and minerals so if you really dont want to up…

hope the exam goes well lets hope I too see that focus soon I suppose we are all have more nutritious foods :)

does the number on the scales really matter if people are noticing a difference and you are happy with how you are doing (using nsv as markers) then all is well its when we expect to see the numbers going down that problems often occur with self esteem etc and feelings of inadequacy of not doing well - if people are…

a few years back I lost 5stone on slimming world - fantastic then I kept it off for a year then I was put on meds became less active due to pain guess why I am back not doing slimming world this time but it is easy (once you get your head round it) and it works good luck

that is fantastic definitely keep hold of those lower clothes sizes bag them up and put them out of the way and put the money to one side you would have spent on some wearable items then when you get to the size you want to stay at you will have enough to get a basic wardrobe you can then add to :) again fantastic

Make sure you stretch out really well at the end of the work out - it helps the muscles so much quite often on dvds they do not give enough time to that aspect stretch each muscle group and hold the stretches at 10 seconds then stretch a bit further for an extra 5 that should help a lot

fantastic look at the difference in your face - I bet you cant wait till the next 30lb are gone me I cant wait for the first 30 I would love to see a difference that marked in myself well done you are doing great

I have a friend who lost 5 stone her husband is so over weight her two boys see a pdoc regulary who is worried about their percentile as they are both on 99 and her daughter older at 17 but she is nearly as bad as the boys friend keeps saying they are big boned like their dad - sorry V I have been shopping with you and…

I use benefibre and find it great as you can just add it to drinks or sauces and you dont really know it is there and when I have a real problem I take ortisan fruit and fibre cubes as they are gentle and I dont get cramps with those interesting question I am looking forward to seeing what others take

I'm up for this I will do a real modified version - the ones I do in pilates class - but that is due to the fact my fitness level is really low a challange like this will help :) maybe this time next year I will be doing them one handed :):)

I might be inclined to set it higher still BUT please remember that processing protein and using fat for energy is harder on the liver and kidneys than the body getting all its energy needs from carbs so make sure you DO get the water in just to help hopefully you will get some really helpful advice from someone far more…

not me I am a new age low carber - a vegetarian low carber nothing primal or paleo about that unless of course I was cr@p at hunting :):)

if the pain is in the joints then do a modified version of what you are being asked to do you are exercising the muscles and I have heard that that particular work out is hard on the knees so do a modified version of the moves that are painful for the knees - when the muscles that support the knees are stronger then you…

I' m in :)

if some are exercise cals I would not eat them but maybe a nice warm drink before bed could use some of those cals up me I think I would hit the peanut butter jar with that many cals left good luck on planning for tomorrow I finally seem to be able to plan and get nearer to my cal allowance :)

to both myself and my dh the number on the scale is not important its how I feel about myself and my image that is important he knows I am loosing but again not how much as the number is just that a number

I did wonder as my daughter is 4 10 that is why I asked about your height just stick with it it will go but sometimes the body doesnt want to give up and last layer of comfort :)

your weight is quite low now - how tall are you - I imagine you are at a weight your body wants to be at :)

wonderful well done I hope you have already found a home for those skinny jeans as before you know it they will be too big :):)

please send me an invite sounds like what I need

I have been a vegetarian for over 20 years any vegetarians vegans feel free to add me as a friend
