Broccoli... absolutely disgusting.

Hi! I am in the Attack Phase. Have started last Wednesday and lost 9 lbs. I realised yesterday (not late or anything!!) that I made mistakes though and I ate cheese!!! :noway: I think I got confused with Atkins, uh oh. I went for the lower fat versions but I think other than non-fat cheese no cheese is actually allowed. I…

Thank you both :-) I already feel better. It is day 4 today and I am still sticking to it. 3.3kg down so far yay! The headaches and fatigue only lasted 1 day. Lucky me. Can't wait for my veggies next week though haha :happy:

You look incredible :flowerforyou:

Hiya I agree. If you are exercising then you are building up muscle mass and your body just needs some time to get in gear. Muscles will help you burn fat but you have to build them first. Dont give up, you are definitely on the right path :flowerforyou: it takes time.

Hiya I have PCOS to. The only ever time I lost weight was when I cut out carbs and all the sugary stuff f course. I find all the info on it so confusing. Cutting out all carbs is apparently not healthy but whenever I look or a different way to eat I feel lost and no weight comes off. I am worried about eatin too much fat…

I include snacks in my calorie allowance. Sometimes it is a bar, sometimes its nuts or a piece of cheese or fruit. For example, today I have an atkins bar and I broke it in half. I had one half mid morning and I will have the second half mid afternoon. That works really well for me.

same here. I would love it if my husband would sent me flowers :)

OMG you have done so well! Congratulations on your achievement you must be so proud of yourself and rightly so! :happy: Well done x

totally agree with you ludogx87. You have to have a balance. personally if I cut out all the "bad" food I like to eat completely, then I just set myself up to fail because I will just crave it even more if I know I am never allowed to eat that EVER again... If I allow myself some food that I like one day, then I just make…

Congratulations, you have done so well!!! Keep up the great work :flowerforyou:

Well done you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :happy: you look fab !!!!

Hi everyone! I am from Greenwich and work in the West End. Been on MFP for ages but slowly getting there! :smile: I do some cardio at home on the cross trainer plus riding my horse and walking the dog. Main thing for me is to keep on top of what I eat and MFP has been great for that! Feel free to add me as a friend. x

Hi, I agree with you funkycamper. I felt the same. I put on so much weight because I ate mainly pasta, bread, rice, pizza... I cannot do the golden middle do the wholegrain rice/pasta/bread thing... :noway: I have decided to go low carb. I started by reducing the carbs I ate, for some time I ate only a roll or cereal at…

Hiya I feel the same sometimes. I got married at the end of April and I felt really selfconscious in my wedding dress. Since then I have lost 12 lb so far and people (especially at work) have commented. They comment on how they can see I have lost weight and it really upsets me because they obviously thought I looked fat…

So very very true! We are off to New York next week with my mum and mum-in-law as a gift from us to them. However I am NOT looking forward to all the eating in restaurants and cafes!!! I know there will be a lot of walking around NY but I know my hubby too, there will also be a whole lot of eating out! :noway: I am so…

you have done so so SO well! :flowerforyou:

FABULOUS! Well done!

Congratulations! that is fantastic!!!! :flowerforyou:

well done you thats fantastic! :flowerforyou:

i am exactly the same and it is frustrating because i am sabotaging my own efforts. :grumble: there were some discount vouchers for 3 hypnosis sessions recently and i got them but i am not sure i want some stranger messing around in my head. has anyone ever tried that before? i read a lot of articles about how hypnosis can…

I am a bit chubby all over but the thing that is the biggest problem (literally) is my tummy. :angry: I guess that makes me an apple shape? :grumble: I also recently got a couple of stretchmarks on my tummy which is the worst thing ever :mad: My aim is to lose the fat all over and tone up at the same time and hopefully one…

wow well done! Keep going! :happy:

same here, love it :heart: :flowerforyou:

Thank you! I had the same question when I read a post yesterday. Thanks for clarifying :flowerforyou:

you look fantastic, well done! x

I'm in too! I am getting married on April 23rd 2011. Not long to go to lose 2 dress sizes! But that is my goal until then. Good luck every one! :flowerforyou:

Yes that's is what I need too, someone to push me. I am terrible with sticking to exercise, who checks on me in the gym if I turn up or not? So I never felt bad for skipping the gym. My new trainer how ever will notice if I have been lazy and as he said yesterday, he will just make me work harder if I try and make excuses.…
