You look so good. At least 10 years younger. Inspirational - well done.

Thanks for sharing your story. You're doing brilliantly. Well done.

I've lost over 37lbs with no exercise whatsoever. What I have done, though, is be more aware that I'm not taking exercise - so instead of the lift I use the stairs (mostly), when I'm walking from the station to work - I try to increase my stride length and walk faster - stuff like that. I am picking up the exericse a bit…

I use the treat sized sweets. A mini pack of smarties - that has probably about 50 mini smarties, is 66 calories. A mini bag of white chocolate buttons is 88 calories. A mini milky way is 67 calories and a mini bag of mikly way magic stars is also under 80 calories. I choose one per day; look forward to it and make it…

If she was really attracted to him, the flowers wouldn't have made a difference. They're just not compatible. Shame for him, sounds like he was invested in it, but she clearly wasn't. On to the next one ....

I have a microwave porridge - takes 2 minutes - lots of flavours. I use skimmed milk and then throw in some blueberries or other yummy fruit to make it go further. It's under 200 calories, is really good for me and my colon thanks me every day!!

Difficult one, but everyone here will help you and be very supportive. Good luck on the journey.

One of the things I've had to learn is to distinguish between appetite and hunger. If you've really eaten your calorie quota for the day, then that's probably appetite trying to trick you. Take a large glass of water and stay away from the kitchen is my best advice. When I've had my dinner at night, I go and brush my teeth…

The only thing you can do is try to be more conscious. When you feel yourself going for a sweet, peel a satsuma instead. If your body is craving the sweetness, then just eat loads of fruit which will not only fill you up, but will also make you feel great. Once you start feeling great again about your achievements so far,…

Yowza - what a difference. You BOTH look so much better and healthier now. Well done you.

i weigh most days. I find it really helps - the scale going up 0.5 lbs makes me determined not to let it go higher, and if it stays the same or goes down a tiny bit, I feel absolutely great. I know it's not recommended - but a daily weight is good for my brain!

Hi there. I don't mean to rain on your parade, but what difference will that 10lbs make to your trip to Vegas? If you lose 5lbs instead (much more likely) will it change how you have fun there? Why are you putting so much pressure on yourself. I have found in the past that it's the pressure that gets you every time. Relax…
