Hot chocolate fudge cake with evaporated milk poured over :D making my mouth water. Oh and an extra large glass of baileys over ice :)

Me too helps me curb my cravings lovely!

At the end of the day you gotta find what works for you evryone has different motivations for me personally, this time round I want to learn to eat better for good so want to learn how to incorparate "cheats" in my life. If I want something I have it. Just in moderation and within my calories. Saying that on a special…

Good point. That way nobody will ever be forced to challenge their misconceptions, and we'll have much more room for "Does this count as water" posts. [/quote] Hang on every post is valid and no one should put ppl off of asking a question no matter how trivial it may seem to you. We are supposed to be supporting each other…

I know this feeling. Since I have started this journey I have had a select few friends that have been FANTASTIC and essential to the loss I have had so far. I think its so much easier having ppl that can relate to you and are going through the same things, It keeps you focused and spurs you on also if your in a tricky spot…

Was lol to this post as i was reading. Soooooooooo true :laugh: :happy:

Bloody well done! you look fantastic! :)

Today ill be boring and have lemon and sugar but my fav are with tinned cherries in syrup and ice cream yum yum yum! Saying that when I make the thick pancakes i have butter and maple on them but as i said not today.

Its an old tradition, people would use up what was left over in there larders ready for fasting. (thats about as much as I know hehe)

The pancakes I made came out at 69 cals each. 112g plain flour 210ml of skimmed milk 90ml water 2 eggs made 9 and cooked each one with 2 sprays of sunflower fry light (the calories include the frylight)

yep had my dose of pancakes this morning. gonna try keep to my calorie limit though :ohwell: :wink:

Well done thats fantastic! I cant wait to be below the 200 mark. Will make my day! :happy:

Use mfp to reserch the different food options you enjoy so you can order with a plan and your not sitting staring at the menu saying should I shouldnt I.Then you will know the cals your going to use b4 hand and can aslo plan your other meals according also do a little extra exercise too if it possible. depriving yourself…

maybe take something so you feel you are having a treat and that your no deprived. Yes pack a healthy packed lunch but look into some healthier treat for example weight watchers do some lovely things like choc jaffa mini rolls only 77 cals.

If it because you are out drinking then forward plan b4 hand look into calories in spirits and mixers and decide what your going to drink, Also make sure you do lots of dancing as this will help burn those extra cals. Also (and yes i did this recently) If you like to get something to eat after try taking a healthy snack…

Wow! what an inspiration. You really do look fantastic. Well done and thx for sharing. :bigsmile:

Hi im UK and my diary is open to my pals if u wanna add me. I am very new to this though this is day 2 and so far so good :bigsmile:

Be careful weighing in everyday. Your weight can fluctuate once a week will give you more accurate progress, saying that if it motivates you and dosnt dis hearten you then go for it!:bigsmile: I personally only weigh once a week otherwise I get fed up and give up :frown:

Abit of what everyone has said really drink plenty, lots of fiber + protein and try eating little and often. Good luck you can do it!

I too have a lot to lose (about 6st :sad: ) its so hard, nice to have others to share support with.
