My wedding is in 2 months and MY FATHER said I was "massively fat" - I should "starve for a few weeks" or I would lose my fiancee.......

I see, did your doctor asked you to do one before you started the diet? What type of meat do you eat? I was thinking of restricting to turkey and chicken..... staying away from fattier stuff like pork sausages and pies, beef and lamb.

:) Thank you Minnie!!! I will bear in mind what you've told me - I guess there are rules for a reason. Basically, I just want to feel a bit more positive about my whole situation, and maybe loosing a few pounds quickly will help. Many thanks for replying!!!

THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!! I couldn't find that support group in the first place!!! Your story is inspirational, I'll stick to the letter and follow the "rules" - I imagined I would need a vitamin supplement. Again, many many thanks!!

That puppy of yours is sooooooooooooo cute!!!! :love: :love: :love: Thank you !!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

Hi, guys! Now, I'm really "worried" about this...:frown: My life is pretty hectic (even though I'm not married and I don't have kids), and sometimes I don't know whether I'm going to go to the gym until... 8 or 9 PM (!) Meaning..., it's pretty dificult to plan my day ahead, specially when it comes to eat my calories... I'm…

Hi! i really like this mozzarella cheese you can find at sainsbury's (222 cal.), and i usually eat it with salad (lettuce, watercress, tomato, dill, balsamic and herbs) but with this cold weather, i don't really feel like eating salads... :noway: do you have any recipes with mozzarella (around 400 cal) or simply any ideas…

Hi, everybody!
