Oh, I so want that to be me!!!! Great job, congrats. You look so much younger! :smile:

That looks like more than 25lbs... you look great! keep it up.

Hi Melissa, I am the same. I have been doing this for almost 2 weeks now and in the first week I dropped 3kgs (6lbs) but now it has gone up a pound and it will not move, not matter what I do. So I am at the "demotivated what is the point" stage. But I really really need to lose 40kg (I think that is like 80-100lbs). Why…
-
I have not done ww points but I would imagine they are just calculated on basic calories. eg. 100 cal = 1 point and you are allowed 12 points a day or something like that. So there would be little difference between that and this. I am seriously on a sticky point and thinking of low carbing on this... changing my limits to…

Burittos, are they like wraps? We do wraps often. Cabbage, carrot, tomato, onion, cheese, mince and sauces. Wrap and put in the sandwich press thingee. Yummmmmmm! Good way to get the kids to eat veges.
-
Yip, my kids are the same with my smoothies. They think they are in mummy diet heaven!

Onya studymum. I did not have time to compile a list like that. And I did not realise there was so many of us!!! :noway: Yay us!! :flowerforyou:
-
I mainly look at my calories and try and keep my carbs down for dinner (now that I have finished my quick water loss days). I have sooo taken to smoothies!!! So filling, satisfies my sweet tooth (feels like icecream for breakfast) and only like 150-250 cals depending on how much milk you put in. I got some cheap…
-
Yeah I know that skim is not watered down standard... I just said it looks like it. I know skim is much higher in carbs cause when low-carbing the fuller cream (or cream itself) the lesser the carbs. It is just a way to compensate if baking and wanting less calories if you only have standard milk. Actually on NZ hotest…

Well done, that takes some willpower! I hope you are rewarded for it on the scales next weigh in!
-
we do not have skim milk either. For baking I make my own... half milk half water. Always said skim looked like watered down std, so that is what I do. Has not failed yet :happy:
-
I got this from a takeaway place and love it. Cup of rice (I buy the heat and eat stuff) with fresh salad/veges on top - whatever you want, then chicken or fish on top, then a drizzle of dressing (mayo, chili, etc). Easy, filling cause you can pile up the vege and yummm. I also did similar with dinner but with spag bol…

Welcome Goat. If I were you I would seriously low carb for 2 weeks for some quick weight loss. Eat Meat, Cheese and Eggs only! Or do that for 4 days (protein only) then protein + veges. I find that is the quickest way for a special event weight loss. Not a long term thing at all, but will instantly drop 4-5kg.

Oh Kermit (sorry, bad at remembering real names)... when you wake during the night you need fuel during the day. My wise mother always said you either sleep or eat. Hope she sleeps thru soon. Welcome "newbies" (haha, I have only been here a week!). Wish DH would do it wiht me jubjub... I think he thinks it is another fad…
-
That is an amazing transformation for such a short time... esp the first 2 pics.. 14 days.. unbelievable!! Well done, you inspire us all!
-
holy moly you look fab. I cannot wait until I have a face with a chin!! I mean just one!
-
I just used the recipe tool. Great thing for adding your recipe, whatever it is, and knowing how much one slice is! Just a tip too, I have found when searching for things put NZ in the search. Like I was trying to find "cream" and it came up with all sorts of stuff but not cream (as we know it). But "cream nz" came up with…
-
Fantastic. Such inspiration for us starting out... thanks for posting!
-
Yeah I find I am hungry too... but then I often think that I am not actually hungry, i just think I am! stupid brain! Wondering if I should eat more often but less. Rather than a big meal 3 times a day....??? I hate thinking of food all the time, which is why i like low carb. And weighing food is a new one for me. Also…
-
You look great. Certainly gives me inspriation. How did you lose the first 72?
-
haha that is great. Peer pressure eh, a great thing (sometimes). I do the same. I just had crackers with tomato, but I did not really have to add cheese, so I didn't. Certainly makes you think 2ce about what you put in your gob, which is why is think it is probably healthier and more long term than low carbing, although…

Ooo I just made this smoothie http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/appetizers-beverages/110738-very-low-cal-strawberry-smoothie-recipe.html Nom nom nom! Funny thing is they say 0 cal for vanilla essence but MFP says 6 per tsp. As do some other sites (like calorie king). So I would leave it out next time. I do not have low fat…

I cannot wait to get my new phone so I can use the app! I am different. I have HEAPS of weight to lose. I am not sure I am doing the right thing, but I have set a goal which is hard but reasonable. Back to what I was when I got married 12 years ago. That is 20kg off. But really, I would love 40-50kg off... but that just…
-
Well, my weight has just gone up and up since I have been on them. Put on about 6kg (christmas did not help!!). So wondered about them. But I am on my last dose, hope to be off them in 3-4mths time. BBB - I am still tossing between low cal and low carb. Gonna try low cal for a week and if I see no significant change I will…

Do AD's effect your weight?
