Good for you! I am kind of similar- not cycling my calories as much but, if i tell myself Im on a diet and I cant eat this or cant eat that I will rebel and go nuts on a block of chocolate followed by a bottle of wine!! I do eat as clean as possible and I enjoy eating this way but I also allow myself a cheat meal where I…

by looking at your diary I would firstly suggest you eat more protein. Add a few shakes, increase your portion size because if you are actually doing that much exercise chances are you are burning muscle as well as fat!! To build muscle you need protein. Eat it at every meal and include snacks. Even though you feel great…

I make extra dinners and take tha tto lunch the next day - brown rice, vegies and protein. easy and saves heaps of time. I think with bread - if you arent wheat intolerant (I suggest you take it out completely for 2 weeks then see how you feel, have a slice and see how that makes you feel) you could limit your bread intake…

its romantic, candle light, home cooked meal specially cooked for me.... awww you knw the answer to this question! :)

i love potato!! but it depends on how you cook it and how much you eat. Boiling is of course better than frying - baking in foil in the skins is also fantastic! I use this method in place of pasta. Of course sweet potato is nutritionally better for you with the viatmins and fibre count, and its yum! whatever floats yor…

oh dear... one of my worst binges I was PMSing and bored at the time and i wanted to eat the world! I crawled into the pantry and found betty crocker icing and ate a whole sachet, a family sized bag of tripple butter popcorn, about 20 flavoured rice thins, over half a packet of iced vovos, 6 pack of beer, blue cheese about…

Me too! Recently moved to adelaide from cold canberra. feel free to add me :)

Hi there, I am 30, live in Adelaide and I'm here looking for support and motivation (and to give some too). I have about 8kg to lose and have been struggling with these for the past 5yrs! I have tried every possible diet for about 2wks then usually cave in and give it up. Now that I am 30, i have realised that dieting isnt…

I use nativia (stevia) as well for cooking, it does have an after taste but in cooking it seems to disappear! I also like xylitol which is also a natural sweetner but no cals etc but it tastes mych better than stevia - no bitterness. And sometimes I might use maple syrup or honey or unsweetened apple sauce to sweeten…

I try to be good 90% of the time and allow myself a cheat meal for the other 10%. So this may be dinner out with my boyfriend or if im feeling like pizza and beer on a sunday I will have just that but making sure i order something relativley healthy and exercise portion control. Most times though, if i feel like a taco or…

Me too! I try to base my lifestyle on clean eating as best as I can including some treats. I dont abuse calories more do I count them regularly. I'm here for motivation, encouragement and to share info with like minded people. I'd love to hear peoples stories x

oh gosh... i dont think i could! but enjoy :)

what the... people eat bats??

I hate to tell you, you cant lose celluilite. I have studied this & you can reduce its appearance by exercise and eating clean natural foods (no sugar, no processed, no dairy, no wheat, no gluten, no salt, no meat) but you would need to completely detox for about 6mths to see anything happen and it would only be a slight…

Oh i love spin class!! I go during my lunch breaks 2 days a week but if they had it every day at 12pm I'd totally do it!! I get sweatty, hot and exhausted... My first class killed me and i told myself i would never go again, 2 yrs later I am begging the gym to add more lunch classes! I feel your passion :)

Me too! im in canberra looking for more aussie mates feel free to add :)

Do you mean like a frittata? There basically quiche without the pastry and just using a pan or pie dish - or a giant omlette. I usually make this (sorry about the lack of quantities, i usually make things by feel than measurements): diced pumpkin (roasted if desired) onion spinach low fat fetta leek 6 eggs Salt pepper…

Yep i have stared at a pregnant woman in the gym, and not because i was horrified but because i was in awe of her! she looked amazing and was lifting weights i could only dream of. I was thinking to myself, man i hope i am that dedicated and that energetic when i have babies. Good on you for keeping up your fitness regime…

Another aussie here!
