You Drive Me Crazy- Fine Young Cannibals

I actually eat McDonalds quite often, and I don't feel ashamed of it. I'm still losing weight. I just avoid the fries, and avoid most of the drinks there unless it's water or a black coffee. A seared chicken burger (New Zealand McDs) is quite filling on it's own without having too many calories. Same with the filet o fish…

Okay, my results for this week: Weight: 206.8 OWLS: 8 House points: 230 And my goal for April: 203 It's funny hearing about New Zealand being talked about as a great holiday destination. Living here all my life I don't really think about it. Instead I dream about travelling over to the States, because there are so many…

I used to do Zumba at the gym, then I bought the PS3 Zumba game and now I play it every day at home. It's the only exercise I do currently. Lost 7.5 kg so far.

I had a terrible day on Tuesday. Woke up to find there was almost no food left in the house at all, and I had no time before I had to rush off to work. So breakfast ended up being drive thru McDonalds on the way to work. Because of having no food in the house, I also hadn't brought anything for lunch, so I had to buy…

Hi, welcome to Ravenclaw, Lord Bezoar.

Hope the weather's good for you while you're over here Lottee. It's been freezing cold this week. I have a few recommendations I guess. If you're heading down the east coast then definitely head to Hawkes Bay- Napier, Hastings, places like that. They always get the best weather and the beaches there are nice. Plus there's…

Awesome to hear you are coming to New Zealand, Lottee. Whereabouts are you going? Coming through Wellington at all? That's where I live.

I frequently seem to go over on protein. I think it's because I often like to have chicken or salmon in my sandwiches at lunch. At least then I'm less likely to be starving throughout the afternoon at work though. Sorry I haven't been posting too often. Things keep getting insanely busy, mostly due to working what feels…

Sounds really awesome. I live in New Zealand though, so it could be hard for people all over MFP to get involved.

I've always been a massive chocoholic, and I get cravings a lot. But as it is Summer here in New Zealand at the moment, some of my favourite fruits like Rockmelon and strawberries are in season. So I just get whole rockmelons from the supermarket and eat that, it's sweet and helps me forget about chocolate.

My first job was a cleaner for a real estate company on Saturday mornings when the other staff weren't there. The girl who had done the job before me was the daughter of one of the real estate agents, and she left because she was moving away for University, but then changed her mind and asked for her job back, so they…

finding exercises you can do at home might help. There are various fitness games for gaming consoles, if you have an Xbox, Wii or Playstation. Or else DVD exercise plans. Motivation can be a problem for me so I often force myself to make exercise the first thing I do when I get up in the morning, and I don't let myself do…

I always prefer men to have long hair. My boyfriend has long hair, and other guys I've been out with have had long hair too. It gives me something to play with, plus I like it because it shows they're not obsessed with trying to be macho and manly, they're comfortable with just being themselves.

I recently went on a big shop and stocked up on great things for cooking lots of dishes. Brown rice, wholegrain pasta, eggs, some chicken and tuna, and a selection of vegetables allow for numerous dinner ideas. I just mix and match different things and maybe add some kind of sauce. I also have wholegrain bread for making…

Yeah I love Zumba, I always felt like that when I went to Zumba classes at the gym, like the instructors kept looking at me personally even though there were like 50 of us in the class. The instructors were so nice. Sadly now because my work roster is so crazy it's hard to get to the gym, so I do all my Zumba on the…

I think that any child or teenager worrying about weight and size is unhealthy. As long as they are still living with parents/caregivers, then it is their responsibility to make sure the kids/teenagers eat healthy and exercise, and that they know how and why to eat healthily so that they will when not at home too. I'm not…

Wow that sounds a bit crazy Jazzgnat. Hope your wife is okay, and good luck with the job.

Another interesting week so far for me too. Had a pretty bad day eating-wise yesterday. My work sent me on a course all day, and lunch and morning/afternoon tea were catered for by the company, who fed us the worst possible selection of foods. Chocolate muffins for morning tea, battered fish and pizza for lunch, and…

I'm exactly the same. Onions and peppers are the only two vegetables I really don't like. Personally I just leave them out of recipes or add something else. You could buy a jar of like powdered onion stuff to use for flavouring, it gives food flavour but doesn't really taste like actual onion. When I go out places it's…

I disagree about not ever eating fast food. There may be times where it's just much more convenient to have something in a hurry, and it is possible to eat fast food and not go over your limit. You just have to be very careful about what you choose. I've learned to avoid pizza like the plague, it is very high in calories.…

I gave my partner a little bit of a lecture last night about how I would like him to be a little supportive. Not that he's really unsupportive, just doesn't really think about things much. Like a couple of days ago he used up both the milk and the bread while I was out at work, didn't buy any more or tell me we'd run out.…

Hi everyone, how's everyone going? Had a weird week so far this week. On Monday it was Waitangi Day, which is a public holiday here in New Zealand. So seeing as it was pretty sunny, me and my boyfriend went for a trip to the zoo. A lot of fun, but also it was four hours of continuously walking around and being on my feet.…

1. Managing to stay under my calorie limit. 2. Getting to spend some quality time with my boyfriend 3. The weather today was stunningly beautiful and warm

I'm a big fan of Zooey Deschanel, she's very pretty. But the most beautiful woman I've ever seen would be Drew Barrymore.

Perhaps you haven't found a type of exercise you enjoy enough to really feel motivated to do it. That was my problem for a long time, weights bored me, treadmills bored me, I dreaded doing exercise so I could never stick at it long. But I've discovered I really love dancing and particularly I enjoy video games that involve…

Chocolate, specifically dark chocolate with peppermint cream inside...yum...
