I have an underactive thyroid - went to the doctors for MONTHS complaining that I was constantly tired and piling on weight no matter what I did - they eventually decided to put me on thyroxine. I've been on it for about 6 months now but it doesn't seem to be making much difference - I'm perhaps less tired, but losing the…

Sounds great :D 3000 seems like a lot, but 1000 is way too low!

I try and avoid extra eating on my period because I like to think I'm getting more calories for my exercise but if I'm really hungry I will -…

I try not to eat after 8pm but I find if I have dinner at 5/6ish then I'm starving by 10pm! If I really, really have to snack then I have a piece of fruit or a rice cake. Sometimes I'll have a couple of spoonfuls of cereal with a splash of milk. The other thing I do is drink hot chocolate. You can get low-calorie (around…

Definitely depends on the person. I am 5"1 and about 6lbs can be the difference of a dress size to me.
