  • The diabetes consultant I work for recommends low GI diet for diabetes. If you can't afford a dietitian check out this website here for ideas.... http://www.diabetes.org.uk/Guide-to-diabetes/Food_and_recipes/
  • Hi there! First off, Lysander666 is just being provocative and we should pay no heed.... Secondly, I also think you should get a second opinion. This might sound like a funny question but how old was that nutritionist? Because when I started out dieting in the 80s we would get told to eat ridiculously low amounts of…
  • Fantastic! Thank you for sharing your story :) I'm the same height but I'm heavier than your starting point and I feel if you can do it, so can I!
  • So true! I've gone cold turkey too. I was addicted lol. Then I realised it actually never tasted as good as I thought it would. And it made me crave sweet stuff, so buh-bye!
  • Me too! I'll send a request :)
  • Look at you!! Fabulous :) And honey, those stretchmarks are a a badge of honour. You got them by growing babies. What's more precious than that??
  • Sweetie - don't beat yourself up! Don't worry about a tummy tuck ok? It looks fine AND you are still working on it. Don't give in to the media hype about needing to have washboard abs. That's just unrealistic. Plus, it's not very feminine. Ok, that's just my view, but really, what I wish I had been told at 19 is:…
  • Hi! This is such a tough one - hence whey I'm back here AGAIN lol.

It just gives me more cravings. Having a healthy snack keeps my blood…

When I'm in a good place, diet-wise, I find I can fantasize about food and that satisfies the craving. With me it's usually cakes - I lived in France most of my life and they do the most…
  • I LOVE this story! I'm so glad you had the presence of mind and the b.a.l.l.s. to put him in his place :D Way to go!!
  • Oh thank you everyone! Such an inspiration :) If you can do it, I can do it!!
  • BUMP!! Wow guys, you all look A-MA-ZING! I've lost weight in the past and put it all back on. I can NOT do that again... I can't wait for the day I, too, can post before and after pics. In the meantime, you are all inspiring me to stay on track :)
  • Hello from Hertfordshire :) I joined this week - this is much better than the other app I used to use. Good luck to everyone with their weight loss.
  • I'm new too and like you I NEEEEEED to do this for health reasons. I have arthritis and you get the same "brain fog" as with fibro - plus I had a brain haemorrhage last year and although it was nothing to do with my weight, it's been quite a wake-up call! Let's do this together!!
  • I always thought green tea would be awful-tasting, but I get Qi Organic Green Tea bags from Budgens and it's yummy.
