  • Check out the "healthy" section of BBC Good Food. The hubs and I use it at least 3 or 4 nights a week... there's some really good and seriously tasty stuff on there! http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/content/healthy/ And it all has the added benefit of being fairly easy and simple to cook. Always worth reading the reviews on each…
    in At a loss?? Comment by stephaniekhani June 2012
  • I have one friend who is quite slim and then had a baby and gained a lot of weight (as you do). At her baby shower, she was complaining about her weight and made the comment "I probably weigh more than you now." I really hated that... I felt really singled out. I'm not a huge girl but still. Sometimes people just don't…

    in HELP! How does the eating more to lose weight work? Comment by stephaniekhani May 2012
  • I don't really understand it 100% either. I've lost around 20lbs now and am stuck. Last week my trainer upped my calories by 150 which (to me) seems counter productive but apparently if I'm eating the right foods and staying as active as I am I'll actually lose more weight. It's a bit of a struggle really--I've been so…

  • --Getting rid of my size 18s for 12s and knowing that I'm still not done! :-) --Seeing the way the hubby looks at me when he thinks I'm not looking --Being able to run 2 miles in 20 minutes when I couldn't run two months ago --Feeling better about myself and feeling physically fit is nice too!
    in What is the best thing about losing weight for you? Comment by stephaniekhani May 2012
  • smoothies and shakes are good... instant oatmeal is fab as it keeps you fuller for longer! I'm baking these for the week on Sunday: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/01/baked-oatmeal-with-blueberries-and.html Apparently it's really nice reheated throughout the week and makes enough for six days! :-)

  • Oh gosh yes! Ideally a good "belly laugh" a day keeps me feeling happy but sometimes it's really difficult! I just try and find humour in as much as possible. :-)

  • Hiya! I'm 5'1" and weigh 162lbs (started off at 185lbs!). April was a really tough month for me after Jan-March went supremely well! I think part of it has to do with me ditching the personal trainer after 3 months (got to be way too expensive) and going it alone. It's been raning for just under 2 weeks straight here which…

  • oooh oh, Chelsea Daggar by The Fratellis is great for jogging/running on the treadmill... especially if you've seen the movie "Run Fat Boy Run!" Comedic genius!
    in Favorite work out songs... Comment by stephaniekhani February 2012
  • Mama Do The Hump - Rizzle Kicks. (Not only does the song crack me up but it's also got a really good beat!) Stronger - Kelly Clarkson (cheesy, yes, but still fab!)
