8.53am here and I'm seriosly disappointed too lol Jayne

Oh god I must be totally disorganised compared to you lot! I plan for today and that's it. I fill in breakfast and lunch as I go along and then usually just cook whatever my son gives me time to for dinner unless I've been able to get someone prepared the night before which I don't seem to get the time to do any more. I…

You look amazing, what a fantastic story and a great achievement. Jayne

That made me lol I think people generally tend to look younger when they lose weight, everyone I know who had quite a bit of weight to lose has but I think it is mainly due to the bloating and when you lose weight you buy new clothes and I think make more of an effort with yourself which also helps. I'm 42 next year and I…

As I'm one of the people (or probably the person) you are talking about I think I should explain my comments. You are eating between 600 - 800 calories a day and exercising most days. We all know the minimum calories we should be eating is 1200. If you come on a site such as this, which promotes healthy eating and a…

I'm 5'3.75, does that count? I started my journey in June and I'm down 22lbs so nearly half way! You can do this, just have faith in yourself! Jayne

Hi, have you been measuring as well? On the weeks where I've stuck or really slowed down I've found I've lost inches instead. I also added in another exercise so as well as walking/jogging, why don't you try swimming or aqua exercise. Keep up the good work, you're doing great. Jayne

Some favourites of mine at the moment:- Toasted pitta breads, cut in half, covered with passata (or tinned tomatoes), cheese and whatever else you have in the fridge, I use onion, mushrooms, spring onion, ham, chicken, sweetcorn, tomatoes and then grill slowly for about 10 minutes - healthy pizza! Most fish can be…

You look fantastic, well done! Jayne

Absolutely fantastic! You look great and so much younger and cuter! Jayne

I've been really lucky that my weight hasn't actually changed when she's visiting. If it shows a gain of 3-5lb I think I'd give it a miss. Jayne

I'm a Personal Assistant although I'm about to be made redundant! Jayne

Well done on completing that ride and not even breaking a sweat! I'd be in coronary care lol. I use my HRM when I go to the gym and the recommended one on here when I've been swimming but I don't log anything else that I do. You are doing fantastic, well done. Jayne

Hi, I'm in South Yorkshire if you want to add me. Jayne x

If I go by the calories burnt on the machines it's a lot less than my HRM says, if you haven't already, I'd invest in a HRM so your burn rate is more precise. I burn between 460 - 600 during a 60 minute session depending on which machines I'm using. Jayne

Well done on your determination and what a fantastic achievement! Just look at your ticker and how far you've come, great going! Jayne x

Fantastic achievement, very well done! You can do this, keep up the good work. Jayne

I love prawns! I would defrost them, put them in some olive oil, chopped garlic, a small amount of red chilli chopped fine and lease them for an hour or until you want to eat them and then pour everything into a fairly hot frying pan and keep stirring them until they are cooked. I serve this with rice or noodles. Jayne x

Mine is set to 1200, I have put my weight loss at 1.5lb week though so it reduced my calorie intake. I haven't found it too hard to stick to, just the occasional day when I would like more lol. Jayne

lol, that made me laugh x

Pitta breads with various fillings, wraps, jacket potatoes, pasta salads, prawn salad are just a few that I have. Jayne

Totally agree, hope you had a wonderful time, that was yesterday, get back on track today! Jayne x

I do the same as above, I weigh every morning, after loo before eating and drinking but only record my weight on a Monday morning. Jayne x

Thank you all, I've given myself a serious talking to, I've been out walking with my lovely friend and played with the kids in the park and hopefully I'm getting my head back to where it should be. I did really well on holiday, I had a drink every day but stayed under my calories and either walked or swam every day so…

Thanks Sue, I'm going to try and keep remembering how good it felt to buy that size smaller! Jayne x

lol Wenders, don't worry about being harsh, I think I need a good talking to! I took all new clothes to Spain and my family who live there all said how good they looked. I think I'm just missing them and feeling low which is an eating trigger for me. Jayne x

Sweet and savoury! I'm still off work until Thursday and just can't motivate myself to go and get any proper shopping or do any exercise. I just can't motivate myself at all. Jayne x

You look sooooo much younger now! Very well done! Jayne

Hi and welcome. I'm in South Yorkshire. I love this site, I've lost 15lb in 7 weeks and now I need to get my backside in gear and get exercising more! The support here is brilliant. Jayne

I don't know what your diet was like before you starting your healthy eating but maybe your body is detoxing and once you've adjusted to the dietary changes you will be back to glowing! Make sure you're drinking lots of water. Jayne x
