  • Well it makes a change from soya based fake meats. I like it, I like a lot of their fake stuff, the fishless fingers are amazing, and I love having their escalopes with a salad. I don't consciously just have quorn as there are so many different vegetarian products these days. I became a vegetarian 12 years ago and not only…
  • Looking fabulous!
  • No, it sounds unfair. If she isn't trying to lose weight and can't be bothered to work I don't see why my taxes should go to pay for something that she could have taken control of. If there was some medical reason for her weight gain fine. I don't like it when people act like they are being hard done by because they don't…
  • I can't afford cinema tickets let alone the snacks!
  • Is the sex better for you? If you would feel more comfortable and enjoy it more if you lost weight explain this to your husband. If he is still upset with the notion of you becoming healthier and feeling better about yourself withhold sex until he understands. Good Luck.
  • I would suggest incorporating bent over dumbbell kickbacks into your routine.
  • Alcohol and crisps although I haven't had much to drink since last November.
  • If only. My balance is terrible, the world is constantly spinning for me which is a shame as I reckon I would have been pretty darn good.
  • Because you only have 10lbs to go I would suggest setting your goal for a loss of 0.5lb a week, this should then give you more calories but you should also be eating your exercise calories as MFP doesn't take this in to account. I think it might be a bit confusing as you do set exercise targets but this doesn't change the…
  • Sleep is already taken in to account so I don't bother.
  • Don't let it get you down! They might not have removed you from their list but removed themselves from the site! Now chin up and pretend this never happened.
  • One thing I've always wondered is that when there was talk of a Universal healthcare all the reports and news I saw was to suggest that most people were against it yet out of the Americans I have met they always seemed to be for it, mainly the people that had been in accidents and were still paying for it. Is this just the…
  • Out of interest, do you mean part of your family are from the Caucasus region or just that you are white?
  • I think you might be the first American I have ever heard to say it's too low. I have seen many posts mainly on facebook complaining but the U.S. has really cheap gas for such a high demand product, if it was to come in line with other countries then there would be some complaints so count yourself lucky and if you aren't…
  • In short, I've met a lot of wonderful people that are from the U.S. and a handful of idiots, it's about the same proportion in every country. But if I was to believe people from the U.S. were represented by Fox news then I would be worried. I also think there are a lot of contradictions over there like the super wealthy…
  • ah I'm not that bothered so I wear my regular huge knickers that cover my belly button.
  • Usually use mozzarella, Cheddar (proper English Cheddar) or Cheshire. I like tomatoes or red onions in it. I just use the cheese on dry bread, I hate cold cheese so I usually prepare it then pop it in the microwave for twenty seconds each side to make sure it's fully melted and then use a dry frying pan to toast it off,…
  • Hello, I had a look at your profile and I noticed you really don't have that much to lose, and you are just about in a healthy range anyway. I would try setting your profile for 0.5lb a week loss, I know it might seem frustrating as it seems to take longer but it is a more sensible way to go although it will mean eating…
  • Many different reasons could be affecting this but in short it doesn't happen straight away. Using a hrm is more accurate than mfp, I've found it to be over on a lot of things but under on some, a hrm is a good investment but before I had one I did just eat back around two thirds of my exercise calories, my main goal was…
  • To me it sounds like your doing fine, you only want to lose around 2lb a week so it sounds like you are on track. I'm trying to lose 2lbs a week but have only lost the amount below, I started in January, I now exercise 6 times a week 1-3 hours, at first I wasn't sure about eating back my exercise calories, especially as I…
  • I wouldn't take it to heart! I'm guessing this is the usual result for her, most people don't want to try on a larger size if they don't have to. Now I'm losing weight I'm more likely to take in my current size and the size smaller.
  • I think you need to consult your doctor and see if they can offer support. Hopefully this will give you hope, I know someone with Fibromyalgia, a friends boyfriend, I know he has problems with pain in just sitting and there are certain things he can't do, he can't drive and has to work from home but he works out and is…
  • Don't worry, this is just a small blip. Without knowing what you usually eat I can't be too sure but I know people find it harder to resist temptation when certain items are cut from their diet. Try and allow yourself the odd treat - this can even be a small bit of what you fancy every day, it's not always as tempting when…
  • One way to think about it is they are cheap because they are cheaply made so buying the doughnuts would still be a rip off.
  • When I found that out I was shocked, it just sounded ridiculous, like the government actually wanted people to be overweight. The corn syrup is a weird thing too, most places don't use it, and it really makes a difference to the taste of things so a lot of things in the states taste a lot different to what I was used to.…
  • I'm not that bothered about my body, even for someone that needs to lose weight it looks okay and I'm fairly toned, even more so for these last few months of working out. I hate my face though, when I put on weight I really feel it goes to my face and makes me look chubbier than I am. If I can get somewhere close to how I…
  • A lot of people will say you should eat more, direct you to similar posts and point out why you should, in short this is correct. My response is just as a personal experience response. I managed to put on weight under-eating, I was overestimating my calories, and worked out I was eating anywhere between 700-1000 cals in…
  • I'm a 38DD, Ideally I would like to be 34-36 B or C. Small enough to not need a bra but with a little something there, mainly out of practicality, I just can't be bothered with bras.
