Hi all, I'm Jenny. I always see these threads and mean to post, but always forget. I definitely need somemotivation so thought i'd join in with you guys :smile: Now the weather's started to turn nice i'm trying not to fall into the same trap I did last year (started drinking and eating far too many BBQ's). Feel free to add…

I had spinach and butternut squash curry. Turned out to be much more filling than I thought it would be.

These sound pretty good, thanks for posting :)

Sounds scrummy, i'll definitely be trying this sometime.

I agree, food scales are the bomb. I don't know what I did before I had mine, I weigh everything now!

Wow, you really look outstanding! I would not be able to tell those were before and after photos, i thought it was different people! Well done, you're amazing!

You look so great, you can definitely see the difference. You're doing so well!

*drools* definitely on my to do list!

bumping for later

frozen grapes, yummy!

You look so amazing! Well done on all the hard work.

Of course :wink:

I'm taking Mirtazapine, think it's known as Remeron in the US, for deprfession/anxiety/sleep. One of the side effects is an increase in appetite. I'm absolutely ravenous all the time since I had to increase my dose, but I've also noticed my weight loss has really slowed down a lot.

Sam, you look totally fab. You can really see a difference, not just in your body but you look so much happier and confident. You're doing awesome girl! :flowerforyou:

One Ryvita and cottage cheese and a banana. Thought the cottage cheese might make me feel full but nope, i'm absolutely ravenous today.

This thread is making me hungry :laugh: For me it's a large bowl of nachos with sour cream/salsa/guacamole/cheese. I used to eat these all the time, I looked on the menu last night and it was 1460 calories and 8.9 grams of salt (i don't know how to calculate the sodium but I know it's a hell of a lot). The only thing I can…

I'm 5'8 and also aiming for about 150, maybe a little more or a little less. I've still got a long long way to go yet though.

Oh I agree, some hot chocolates are just disgusting, I think why waste the calories :grumble: For me, this weekend, I got a free sample of a low calorie chocolate bar. I wish I could remember what it's called to warn people away from it. It was a foul, loathsome, evil little thing that tasted like ash. The single worst…

Well done!

carrots houmous bananas cottage cheese spinach grapes as long as I have these I seem to stay on track!

Count me in. I started at 227, now down to 207 (maybe more since I splurged at the weekend and havn't weighed in yet :embarassed: ) My goal weight is 150lb, or thereabouts, really whatever weight i'm most comfortable with, so still a long road ahead!

I've seen this before, it lead to me weighing pretty much everything. This time last year I was eating easily 100g (4oz) of pasta at a time, and I what I thought was 10g (.30oz) of cheese was actually more like 50g (2oz)! It's quite shocking how much over you can go without realising! Great post :happy:

Homemade strawberry and banana milkshake, mmmmm. Still have one snack left to go today, not sure what to have yet though.

Another UKer, from Cambridgeshire. Feel free to add me :smile:

207.4lb which is no change for me. Rather frustrating that there's no change but guess I gotta keep on with what i'm doing. Grats to everyone, the losses and the gains, you're all working so hard :flowerforyou:

There are so many things I used to eat that I now eat and they just don't taste as great, or don't taste fgood enough to match the calorie count. Mcdonalds fries, crisps (chips) and a lot of chocolates. I'd rather eat fruit.

Awesome idea, and grats to all on your NSV's Mine - last Friday it was quite cold out in the evening so before I left I went to get my jacket, on a whim I grabbed one my mum bought me a few years ago and it would never zip all the way up. It zipped all the way up and was pretty comfy too, great feeling :happy:

Yes! This is my absolute favourite way to kill the chocolate cravings. It's sooo unbelievably good.

Spinach Tomatoes Basil Mozzarella Black pepper A dash of olive oil Mix it all together et voila. So good.

Posting so i'll be able to find the thread ;)
