you are fantastic! You've achieved a huge amount and you are really sorted :happy: I like the visualisation thing too. My five year old stood on the scales at the weekend and she weighs 45lb. So you've lost a five year old girl! WTG

I'm 5'7" and a half and my gw is 150. Currently at 183 and started at 231

I don't think that in the slightest. As you can see from my post my family hunts their meat and my first job was in a butchers. I did not choose to give up meat for the poor fluffy animals, I chose to give it up as I'd much rather my food wasn't manhandled and used for pranks before it was sold on (I could tell you some…

Firstly I am a vegetarian of 25 years. I am not particularly fit and healthy, but I'm trying and I don't force my views on vegetarianism. It's my choice. My Husband and Children eat meat and they hunt. My first paid job was in a butchers. But I do have to raise an objection to the above comment. Not all animals are…

I've just finished day 3 of level one. Please feel free to add as I'm quite good at motivating others, just not myself :frown: I recently finished 12 weeks of Biggest Loser on the Kinect and really enjoyed it, but I get bored quickly so this appealed. I have a dodgy knee and have found that if I don't push it I can manage…

jacket potato with cheese and pineapple nom and dairylea and strawberry sandwiches oh and salad cream (not mayo) sandwiches on white bread :)

You are looking fantastic, there is a huge difference it just takes time for us to see it. I was feeling despondent and convinced that there was no difference then bam all of a sudden I could start to see a difference. Someone else took a photo and posted it on FB and I didn't recognise myself. You're doing a great job!

you should get another 8% off if you use quidco

Why would you want to stay in and hide? You're a beautiful girl! I was/am similar in that I've always been big(ger) however I look back at the pictures now and see someone so tiny, just taller. Things have happened and I ate, and ate, and ate. Then it became easy to be the fat Ange. Ange who doesn't do anything or see…

I think that weatherspoons do, certainly do on their website. Hungry Horse pubs show the calories on the menu.

It's brilliant! Try fruit ninja for an arm work out. And as for Biggest Loser, I love it!! It's my only "workout" and I've gone down two sizes. Just Dance is good fun too

me too! :sad:

you wont look a fool. They want you to be there. If they didn't they wouldn't have asked you. I didn't go to my cousin's wedding last year as I didn't want my family to see how big I'd become. Within weeks my father passed away and I had to face them. They are my family and they love me, not my size. I feel sad with myself…

half of one of the little tubs on a digestive biscuit beats the cheescake craving at around 120 cals - far better that than a slice of chocolate cheese cake (especially the one in cafe Nero which my husband had the other week at over 500 cals a slice!)

yea! It's great isnt it? I got there myself today :happy:

Hello! I've been using the biggest loser on the xbox for two months and it's great! I do shout at it occasionally but that's all part of the fun. I never knew that you could sweat so much playing a video game. My husband has been using it too and was complaining that his thighs still ached after a work out he did two days…

I've not eaten any meat or fish for 25 years now and was a huge carb junkie. I couldn't fit enough bread of cake in my tummy. Anyways, since joining I have changed the kinds of carbs that I eat. More whole grains, no white bread that kind of thing and smaller portions. I've upped the veges. Where as the bulk of my old…

Firstly Yea! :smile: I used to get indigestion for about a week before my period. Often bad enough to keep me awake at night. But since changing the foods I eat I haven't had it. So yes I believe that the food you eat, and amount of it can help with TOM

you have no idea how much work and money goes into being a redhead :wink:

anything that I haven't had to cook!:huh:

I weigh myself, but as I'm not as regular as some it gives me a better indication as to when it might happen. I tend to start bloating 2 weeks before hand and only weighing for half the month is surely asking for trouble? What you are saying makes perfect sense, just not for me :tongue:

I did think about the drop in the calorie burn pushing and puling the bins around. I think that I was beginning to keep Crabbies in business. Now all that's in the bin is cereal cartons and milk bottles. I'd probably kill for a pint of cider tho'

Yup, no more heavy bins to lug around :laugh: Thank you Jade_85! x

I'm with you there! I just want to eat. I've been drinking instead and feel like my stomach is a gigantic water bed! Any suggestions gratefully received!

Surely the whole point is to change the way you eat i.e not rubbish all of the time, not a restrictive diet. As a lot of us know from past experience a restrictive diet usually results in a fail. A night where you have a few bits of party type food is not going to kill you. And you might well find, as I have been, that…

I've been growing spuds for a couple of years and have had far better yields from growing them in a sack than in the ground. I grew beetroot in a sack last year and they did brilliantly. The tomatoes just kept coming from June through til October and we did really well on the green beans and the pumpkins too. Salads do…

I am a recent Aldi convert and I love it! The fruit and veg s fantastic and brilliantly priced. Most of their meat is British,( not that I eat the stuff, it's for the husband and the kids) which I prefer to buy as our welfare standards are so much higher. For the awkward things I'll go to the local big Sainsbury's.

our local chippy will grill a piece of fish for you. Is that an option?

well then have one. You've been working really hard and a wee bit of chocolate isn't going to kill you. Just don't go silly. If you start denying yourself then you are more likely to fail long term. This isn't a diet, it's a lifestyle change, and it's a long life ahead without chocolate ;) x

I'm with you on that one! I did my first navel one myself, highly unrecommended, and then had the scar tissue pierced through which hurt. And remember that should you remove a piercing, no matter how long you've had it you must keep it clean. It's all too easy of a cyst to form.
