Maybe a good book that will unravel the emotional eating thing step by step? I can definitely recommend Linda Spangles 100 days of weight loss. She has written other books on emotional eating too which are probably just as good, I just happen to know that one…

Yr iron levels might be too low, apparently most pre menopausal women's are. I was tested for ferritin (stored iron) a while back and it was very low , even tho my blood iron was ok. At the time I was feeling so rough after workouts, really low, stomping around slamming doors & snapping at everyone. I went on a course of…

I can deal with rain as long as its only 9months of the year, not 12months which it was last year. It does actually lift your mood to get out in it as long as its not lashing gales & you have some good clothing. COLD is much harder - I always end up upping the cals somewhat when its below freezing outside. I don't know why…

I'm using Linda soloman's Yogalates for weight loss DVD, something for everyone on there :)

I think it's a terrific way to meet compatible ppl, certainly no worse than the usual hit n miss, at least you have a chance to test the water first with emails and phone calls. Just take sensible precautions, but then u would do that in real life as well of course. Have fun!

It's that time of year, I hate it! :noway: We just got over Norovirus & now I have a sinus infection! Listen to your body, do what it asks & forget cal counting til you have recovered, you often lose lbs when u r sick anyway.

Isnt there some sort of temporary thing you can do - a small balloon which is inserted in your stomach, keep it there for several months, it can't be there permanently, but has the same effect as a bypass, its a local anaesthetic not major surgery. It just kick starts your motivation by helping you lose weight, then it…

I painted and sold portraits for years til it caused RSI! I've had to find something else to have fun with, I got into jewellery making recently, also water base oil pastels, use them like crayons & go over with wet paintbrush - really gorgeous effect, vivid colours.

Berkshire :) There are a couple of Brit groups on here actually, if you do a search you should find them ..

Jan, I took a pic of it to a physio and she said she though it was a good idea, just check its the correct power settings, which it is. I had no other info with me at the time so she couldn't tell me more, but I'm going to double check with my GP next week, make sure it's ok before I buy. It does have good reviews tho.…

>>Sore losers.... << LOL.. Thanks for all your input :happy: Does Google Chrome cut out the pop-ups/ads as well as Firefox does.. ? I hadn't even thought of using Google Chrome, but I have a google account so maybe that would be better. I use several free sites and the ads are getting really intrusive and ridiculous - (do…

Thanks peeps - you're the best! I will check all of those out :smile:

>>Does she want more money? If she does then i suggest you wash your hands off her. << Yes, she has dropped hints that she expects US to contribute to her finances - should she ever need cash in the future. And she's far wealthier than we are!! >>I'd have a chat with her, set some ground rules - No money, no rudeness, a…

I agree. They'll know the basics about good food, no one is so stupid as to think eating junk all day is good even if it is within the day's cals allowance.

Isn't that what Atkins does anyway? (no fruit?)

Possibly you are around menopause time, and from my experience (& having never had a weight problem in my life before) I suddenly zoomed into overweight zone in the same year in which I gradually went into menopause. These days I need 1/3 less cals than I used to just to stay in maintenance - I'm amazed at how little I can…

>> No, they changed it. Telling us to just stick with the five servings. Even still people have to cut back on their daily points to be okay. Some of us still weren't okay. I was excited about the program as I was plateued for quite awhile, but after 3 months of gaining and not losing with the new, I left. << Ah that's…

For those on the new WW plan - is it true you can eat as much fruit as you like?? (and still lose weight of course!)
-
ach.. I always do that when I have a cold, your bod really seems to need the extra cals. But summer's coming, no more colds, so it won't trip you up for at least another 6 months! I say forget about it! - it never happened :)

>>haha - I want a pill that just makes everything taste like ****! If food wasn't so damn good I wouldn' t be so damn fat! haha << Why doesn't someone invent that? A pill you take 20 mins before a meal and makes everything taste yukky enough that you don't want to eat any more than you absolutely have to???? Whoever…

Read my mind exactly and saved me trouble of replying..LOL ... in a perfect world that's exactly what I'd do! think of all the extra time you'd have, not having to shop/prepare/cook/ even think about about food again (apart what's your current fave choccie bar) - and all the spare cash you'd have to spend on massages /…

I think it's a very primitive instinct, your bod wants to mend itself and it needs more nutrients/energy to do so...its a b*gger tho if you keep getting repeat infections! winters are bad for weight loss in my book - can't wait for summer!

>>oh I looked WAY FATTER in real life at my highest weight! << LOL - well you can actually keep adding weight to max, save the pic on your comp and put it through the scanner again as many times over as you like and get as huge as you like, but I wouldn't recommend it .. it gets quite scarey :bigsmile:
