Good luck Phil and Happy New Year! :)

Yoga has toned my arms, but this is also a good arm workout :) http://youtu.be/cYwTocx94fg

I'm pretty sure that KFC, chicken nuggets and fries will not help you lose weight?

Well done! I absolutely input everything! I do it in the morning and then adjust accordingly. It really helps to avoid unnecessary snacking and allows me to keep comfortably within my calorie limit. When I first started out I found I only had about 300 cals left for dinner and really struggled. This way dinner (usually the…

It's very common in the UK to ask for money. Times have changed, it's no longer considered rude. I expect it when I go to weddings.

Awww 1lb is nothing to worry about! It's probably just water. If your man noticed a difference then you're on to a winner! Good luck with your journey :) x Edit: Not only did he notice, he wants to take you shopping - what an angel!

Wow, I've never heard of anything like this! I found this article, might be of some help? http://www.livestrong.com/article/303068-how-to-stop-chewing-gum/

Holla! Am in South Bucks, feel free to add. Best of luck x

I wish you the very best of luck! :drinker:

:) Remember the health calc site includes your exercise, MFP doesn't so expects you to log and eat back your calories. I upped my calories a month after I started and I feel much better. I am still losing by eating more calories, but try (try being the operative word) to avoid too much sugar - that's the killer and it's…

I believe you would eventually lose weight, but not at a rate of 1lb - 2lb a week, which I'm assuming is what you've got MFP set to? Try this: http://www.health-calc.com/diet/energy-expenditure-advanced Then this: http://www.health-calc.com/diet/weight-loss-calculator It will tell you how much you will lose if you were to…

Thank you, I do have some nice friends and I appreciate your input :) Well done with your weight loss, 89lbs is amazing!

This is true, I've contradicted myself haven't I - doh!:blushing:

This just happened when I wasn't eating enough, but thanks for the tip! :)

Yeah, more fool me lol. Oh well. I didn't mean to bash.

That right there, that is what I'm talking about. A personal jab. Totally uncalled for. I don't need to 'feel important'. I was just trying to be positive.

Ok a few points: 1) I do know how to use the internet and I apologise for posting in the wrong forum. My bad. 2) I do not believe everyone is here to support me personally, I didn't mean to give this impression. I just figure most people on here had a similar aim/goal. 3) :heart:

LOL!

Good luck to you! Feel free to friend me x

Love this :)

Aww thanks! :)

Like!

I got loads of spots, my hair really dried out and my nails didn't seem to grow as quickly as they normally do. I felt very tired, no energy for exercise, which is only Yoga, and was also very grumpy lol

If you guys are hungry you're probably not eating enough? I know this is a 'diet' webste, but I found I lost more by eating more. I started on 1280-1300 cals but it just wasn't enough for me (I'm 5' 9"). My hair and skin also suffered from the lack of nutrition. I've read many sources that say if you eat around 2000…

Thanks guys! Sadly, if I was 'ranting' about something, I'd probably have a million more responses ha ha!

Bump

Hey, I do ashtanga :) Or at least I think that's what it is! Love it too. You've done very well with your weight loss x

I've just signed up for 8 sessions. I'll let you know how I get on!

Hey, try this calculator http://www.fat2fitradio.com/tools/bmr/ It will tell you to eat quite a lot more than you would expect, but you don't need to eat back your exercise calories at the higher intake as they have accounted for your daily expenditure. MFP puts you on a very low cal intake so it is important to eat back…

This will actually tell you what you burn :) http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/cbc You can then add it as a new exercise on MFP if you're that bold!
