  • Hi, Could it be that your body has become too used to the foods that you're eating. Maybe shake it up a bit and change from the usual stuff you eat? If you've found that your meals are based on rice or pasta, maybe give those a break for a week so your body can have other types of nutrients instead. I give myself a cheat…

  • I've found that the easiest way to reduce calories is to pre-plan a healthy dinner. Most evenings I have a fish fillet with broccoli and asparagus. I also try to avoid snacking, and if I really must, then I try to make it a fruit. But then, I think a little of what you fancy does you good - if I deny myself, I just end up…

  • I think what the dietician is trying to get across is that even though a calorie deficit is needed for weight loss, some foods burn off quicker than others.

  • Hi Aimee, I'm Jo. I'm 27 and from London, UK. I'm looking for buddies to egg me on too. I've finally started being honest with my food diary and realising what I was eating wasn't great for me, but staying motivated to not eat that summer ice cream is HARD! And if I must have one, I WILL burn it off with exercise!! You've…

  • Wow, your weight loss is incredible. You should be very proud of yourself! If your friends aren't proud and pleased for you, then they obviously have their own insecurities to deal with. You should focus on your own happiness, and making new, supportive friends.

  • HI, I agree with the other posts - find time to squeeze in exercise. I go for walks on my lunch break or after dinner. Maybe get off the bus a stop early - every little helps. I found I had pretty good results when I tried a 'no oil' short-term diet. I would literally cut out everything which had oil in - no bread, no…
