Thanks, I will have a look at those ideas.

My daughter is in Primary 3 at school here in Scotland, and she was taught this year about foods, calories, healthy foods, junk foods and things like protein, nutrition, dairy, fruit and grains, etc. I felt she learned a lot although she is skinny (some people think she is underweight sometimes) she still eats junk food. I…

That's great that you managed to get them, no probs. Its good helping someone else. Glad you love them, they are brilliant :)

I registered at the gym but hated it. I'm going to start going to classes and see if I enjoy that At the moment I'm doing lots of walking and a dance fit dvd which is energetic.

Hey, I'm 26, started just after New Year and in need of some friends to help/push me along :) feel free to add me

Hey Kevin, I'm Amelia, 25 and started my weight loss journey just after new year. I've had bad days already but with the support I have recieived on here together with enterin my calorie intake and fitness exercise I have got back on track so haven't failed. I hope you find the courage to stay at it on here!

Mine for this week is (I weigh-in on a Wednesday):- Loss/gain this week: -4lb amount left to meet goal: 6lbs Strengths: Watched what I was eating but didn't totally deprive myself of things Weaknesses: Had a chocolate bar and ice-cream Goal for this week: To exercise more regular and to maintain what I'm eating

Hi, I had the same problem yesterday due to having my time of the month. I knew it was terrible but really felt down so had the crap junk food (which didn't even taste that good). But on a good note, if you think to yourself and you know you done it, don't let it get you down. It's ONE day not a full week of doing it.…

I'm 5ft 4" and I'm now 14st but the last time I measured myself I was around 14st 8lbs and my measurements were (at that point):- Hips: 48" Chest: 41 1/2" Waist: 34" There are loads of reasons people are different, i.e. their build, whether they are big hipped or small, broad shouldered or not. I don't think you are lying.…

I'm doing a Charity Skydive (Cancer Research/Macmillan Cancer) in July (hopefully). So once I get under 14st (the weight which you can't be over) I'm going to set a date and then start raising the money. I'm excited but scared at the same time although I know I'm doing it for a good cause (my gran was diagnosed a couple of…

Yeah, I'm in the UK, I got them in my local Morrisons. They were £3.00 each for those ones. They also had the 10 minute solution dvds and other ones too. If not, you should be able to get them on Amazon or that. :) Hope this helps :)

I'm in :)

I'm in Glasgow, just started dieting (again!). Looking to meet some new people and have more inspiration and motivation to do it! Feel free to add me.

I have my daughter who is 6 yrs old.

I work in an office where I sit on my bum most of the day (9-5). Lunch is 1hr 15 mins so I try to go out and walk most days just to save me snacking on anything. I used to sit and have chocolate or crisps all the time where I now have my set time to have a piece of fruit and my tea and then time lunch comes I'm okay.

I got one recently saying something along the lines of "I came across your profile picture and had such a strong vibe so I just had to sit down and write to you". Its mad what some folk write.

I had porridge today for my breakfast!

I know exactly how you feel too, I think its just psychological because we want to belive we are skinny and good looking when in realily I know I'm obese and not that good looking. Wish there was a way to overcome it easily but the only way is by losing the weight!

Welcome and good luck. Feel free to add me and I'm sure. You will get. Lots of support from all of us on here. :)

You look great, well done and I'm sure you can keep it up :)

we'll done! You look amazing :)

Hey, welcome and good luck. I'm Amelia, 25 and. Am a mum to my. Daughter who is. 6 and I'm doing this for the exact same reasons as you. To be more healthy and actually do things to run about and feel good :) Feel free to add me :)

On New Year's Day (me and my wee girl) x

Thanks :) I'm sure you will do just fine x

Mine has to be the fact I weighed myself and was nearly 15st. Felt really awful about it and the fact I want to be able to do a skydive this year but need. To weigh less than 14st to raise money for Cancer x

Hiya, good luck on your journey to losing the weight. I've not long started my journey and so far what's motivated me is the people on here and also my six year old daughter as I want to be able to go on holidays and actually manage to do things with her. Hope you find the motivation easily :) x

1. I woke up early feeling very postive. 2. My attitude towards dieting was brilliant. 3. Was organised and took all my lunch and snacks (ie. Fruit) to work with me. 4. Wore nice clothes and actually felt good about myself. 5. My wee girl :)

Thanks to everyone who has replied, this has helped me so much to kickstart my healthy eating to lose weight again. Today, I have brought in everything that I am going to eat and if I get tempted, I will instead take one of my pieces of fruit. I feel so happy today now that I know in my heart I (1) have to do it and (2)…

I might keep a wee journal myself. I have started to take everything I am going to eat to work with me too. It's so much easier as then I don't have to keep money on me to go buy myself anything and therefore I'm less tempted to buy any sweets, crisps, etc. Do you know what you are going to be eating the next day/week
