Nope, I'm from NS too! Grew up in Halifax, then lived in Montreal, then briefly in the UK, now in Vancouver, but back to the UK in a few months!

ah, totally your twin! CW: 210 GW: 140ish height: 5'7.5

I love Jamie Oliver. Always have. My only complaint is that he does, as aforementioned, play up to the american audience a bit. I prefer his British-audience material over the stuff aimed at americans.

Hannah and Olivia looked smokin' hot last night! Not emaciated or too thin, but super fit, healthy and glowing. I'd have to say Sarah, Irene and the twins were the other amazing transformations.... I thought Deni was thin, but honestly...a little too thin for her frame.

amazing! well done.

As your sister, I just want to say that I think you're craving & eating those extra few hundred calories because your body needs and wants them. You're at the very bottom of the healthy end of your BMI and I don't think you should be trying to lose anymore weight. Toning and maintenance now. No more weightloss.

Wow, sissy. Good job!

Sissy, you should also try out agave nectar (maybe found at planet organic or petes frootique?), or stevia, as aforementioned. Or, cane sugar or raw sugar. Honey is also fab too, and I see that you've tried it! Anything is better then white, processed sugar or chemicals. Protein Powder can be okay, I have used chocolate…

You look fantastic. Well done my dear!

I've found a couple of yoga videos on youtube (user: tarastiles). I downloaded Jillian Michales 30 day shred from Itunes!

You got this girl! Love you sissy! xxx

HELL YEAH! good job dude.

salut! je suis (presque) bilangue, mais evidement l'anglais c'est ma langue maternelle. mais j'peux communiquer au moins! :). j'ai habiter a montreal pour 3 ans (et nouvelle ecosse pour la plupart de ma vie), mais maintenant je suis a vancouver. xxx ajouter moi! je vais te supporter en francais!

thanks allison! yeah, i've video-blogged on & off on various youtube channels for years...well, I used to, anyway. So I reactivated an old channel, I thought it would give me a good outlet to talk about all of this stuff. For me, it feels huge. Crazy right? I mean, its almost like a decision to get married, or have a…

I definitely had a little binge today, but I recognize that. In my old mindset, I may have not even noticed my mindless snacking. Luckily for me its only mid-day and with a bit of exercise and a light dinner, I can still stay under my calorie goal for the day. I'm really happy and grateful for MPF, actually. Without the…

Unfortunately this post was after I had mini-binge (about 400cals worth of snacking), but I am going to do some exercise now to try and offset it. It's only my second week at MPF, I'm sure with every passing week, I'll become more motivated and focused!

Thanks for all the replies everyone :)

Wow, you're all doing so great, and have done so well! It's an inspiration to me..my very first day of my journey of MFP. :)
