I would prefer healthy but as it is a birthday, I'm not going to stress over things too much. The main is healthy and dessert isn't so it makes no odds really. Lol.

There are a number of factors that could be stalling your weight loss: TOM and water are just a few. How is your sodium level? If it's too high you will retain water and gain a few lbs. There is one woman here that gains 9lbs the week before TOM. Many people swear by spike days, that is, they eat (within reason) whatever…

If it's something you did before you started your journey to lose weight/get fit then I wouldn't. Walking to work every day 'helped you' in a sense to gain the weight, logging it and eating back those calories will be counter productive. If it's something you have recently started doing then add it as it's not the culprit…

I'm knew to the gym scene so I don't yet know what is normal and what's not but seeing as I watch other people using things other than treadmill, elliptical and bikes (they all seem to be self explanatory) in order to gauge how to use things, I hope I watch the people that do things that are considered normal gym…

I'm always happy to take on new friends, but I do delete if you a) put cooking down as an exercise (yes did have someone do that) b) expect motivation etc but don't give back and c) don't log in for three consecutive days without good reason. Obviously the word 'you' does not mean one person in particular but people as a…

Princess - Name my hubby calls me Lou - My middle name is Louise and my Mum always called me Lou 71186 - My birthday is 7th November, 1986.

Last night mine had onion, peppers, sweetcorn and peas. Hubbys had onion, peppers and cheese. Both had garlic powder in there too with a little sea salt and cracked black pepper. You can basically put in an omelette whatever you fancy.

I personally don't think I could do it but one of my closest friends has an open marriage and it works brilliantly for them. They also have rules set up and one of them is their son is to not know about it..

I have one gorgeous kitty called Tigger. I have had him five years gone November and he will be six in July. I would love a St Bernard but hubby won't let me have a dog.

I originate from Harrogate, England but, after moving around the England and Australia I ended up in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Anyone?

Sorry to disappoint you, however, 'monies' is, in fact, a real word. http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/monies?q=monies

I use www.supercook.com. You simply put in what foods you ave in your fridge etc and it brings up some great recipes.

First day completed. I'm still alive. Woohoo!

Woohoo!!! I was a little concerned at first, thinking that maybe you translucent flesh and muscle as well as skin. Lol. Well done you. X

"During exercise, histamines are released. Histamines are proteins involved in autoimmune responses like an allergic reaction to pollen or dust. People who are sensitive to histamines can experience rashes, itching, and other allergic symptoms during exercise just like you are describing. Most of the time, the rashes…

When I get all sweaty, my skin itches a lot and this results in a secondary rash but I have never had a primary rash. (Apparently I am allergic to something in sweat. Good to know. Lol.)

I usually have a day once a week where I will eat anything I want for dinner and not worry about the calorie content. I don't log it either, just simply enjoy. Been on here since Jan 2nd and as you can see, it hasn't done me any harm. For the next few weeks though I will be making sure I log everything, I had a friend here…

It may take a little experimenting to determine just how much food you need to eat before you go exercise. You don't want to have a full stomach when you work out, but you don't want to be hungry either. If you eat a large meal just before exercise, you may experience nausea, feel sluggish or end up with muscle cramps.…

Do they know you are eating healthy/losing weight? If they don't you need to tell them. If they do then you have to either a) be blunt and say "I appreciate you getting my lunch for me and I'm grateful but I need to start eating healthy foods." or b) "I'm thinking of bringing my lunch in from home tomorrow, would you like…

Let us know how you get on. Good luck. (I used to be a very picky eater and that site helped me loads, plus it helps when you have no idea what to cook. Who would have thought of putting bourbon, orange juice and chicken in the same dish? Lol.)

I would get the spinning bike. As you can change the resistance it can help you train for the race in 'windy weather' so to speak and 'uphill climbs'. Much more realistic than a regular exercise bike. Good luck. X

Do you eat chicken? I f you do and are not adverse to trying different spices etc you could experiment immensely with those. Try visiting www.supercook.com, it allows you to enter as many ingredients as you like and brings up suggested recipe ideas. If you only ate chicken and potatoes for example, it would show you…

I wanted a tattoo to symbolise my hubby because of what he had done for me, however, no way was going to get his name permantently marked into my body. I'm not nuts. Lol. I had his star sign tattooed instead. I have mine done on my lower back (not a tramp stamp) and his on my right, outer ankle (I have also got my fathers,…

Hi, we've been trying for three years, seven months. When we started I was classed as healthy but due to many disappointments I gained weight and was bordering obese. I decided to do something about it before I majorly impacted my health. I have also been on Clomid and still taking it every month whilst waiting for…

I was quite lucky, I decided I was not going to smoke again on November 15th 2011 and had my last cigarette then. I haven't craved/wanted/desired one since. My hubby on the other hand, I tried getting him to quit, (for anyone who will say "he needs to do it in his own time", he needs to quit soon or we won't be able to…
