Caffeine has been considered a diuretic by experts and consumers for years. Some people believe that drinking caffeinated beverages will cause them to lose fluids so they can't be counted as part of their daily intake. Others say that caffeinated beverages do not increase fluid losses. The best way to flush out the truth…

Closed! I've been doing loads of intermittent fasting [not for reasons related to weight loss] and people on here automatically assume the worst, and defriend anyone they know getting less than 1200cals a day :grumble: When I used to have it open it was much better though, because I was more motivated to eat healthy so…

Hey :) 1230 can seem quite low to begin with, but trust me, you can eat 1200 cals and still feel full :D > What do you eat generally? This varies a lot, but here's a sample: Breakfasts: - 2 slices of Wholegrain toast with 5g of margarine, and a few sliced strawberries instead of jam/jelly. - A small bowl of plain porridge…

I heat up my Tefal non-stick egg pan on the hob, then spray it with the 1 calorie oil, Fry Light [or Pam in the USA]. Then I toss in an egg, and flip onto a slice of toast :bigsmile: For dinner eggs, I'll fry up some onion, mushroom, pepper, sweetcorn etc [with the 1 cal spray]. While that fries, I'll boil a potato, which…

Oh gawd, you've got me in tears :laugh: You're my new hero :flowerforyou:

Literally LOL. :drinker:

30 Day Shred on Youtube. Try Day 1, the steps are easy, you don't need a loadda equipment and it's fun :bigsmile: Other than that....I like dance vids. If you can get 30 mins of dancing in a day it'll make a big difference

Thanks for the replies , ladies! :)

I try not to have Mickey D's since that experiment at school years ago, where we kept a burger and fries for months without it growing mould. :indifferent: But on the days I don't give a damn..... Fillet-o-fish burgers with medium fries and a Large Pepsi Max!!! And a McFlurry for dessert :love:

Welcome to MFP, hope you have a great journey! :D Feel free to add me, :)

Welcome to MFP! I've sent you a request, hope you have an awesome journey here :)

Dougt seems out-doorsy :3

Alarae, the one in the pink shirt, right? You look really pretty & genuine :D And you have such cute kids :happy: EDIT: @ Motivated, urm YEAH! Uber cute, love the syle :glasses:

Krizz, dem eyes! Yesss! :glasses:

You have to have had those negative high school experiences to understand how it feels. Like I can't even watch tv without comparing myself to every single woman on there. Her face, her figure, her personality. Some stuff never goes away :indifferent: Awwh, your bf sounds like a total sweetie, :bigsmile: Tehe @ pot :laugh:…

Don't assume that! :tongue: A lot of people here are genuine. Personally I can always find something attractive about somebody's appearance. If I can't [this has never happened before] then I wouldn't comment.:smile:

I felt like that, but then I read this and thought....screw that and uploaded a pic :D "Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it." - Confucius I see you though, and you're prettyyy!! :)

Sorry, I keep changing it! xD LOL @ John Paul Gaultier :laugh: @jensbran, Yes, you have such pretty features :smile:

^This body reminds me of Amir Khan, the boxer :X Yes :3

Omg is that you in your avi? I swear I thought that was Anna Paquin!! :o

A month long Eid?!?! Wow, I wish I lived in Singapore! xD Good luck this year, hope it goes well for you :)

Aha! I read something similar but I couldn't find it with sources, so wasn't sure whether or not to believe it. That's perfect, thanks dude :)

Naw, if I'm gonna do something I'm gonna do it properly. The fasting itself I like doing, just not for the same reasons. :) Hmm, well a lot of Muslims have feasts at sunset, my family usually has a small bowl of vegetable soup and a few slices of bread. So there's quite a calorie deficit. Thanks for the info guys, all…

:| I learnt this in school, passed my Maths GCSE with flying colours. It's just the first time I'd tried to turn my dinner into a Math's problem, had a brain fart, as I said :P

Aha! thankyou!! That was really driving me crazy xD

Did you click the link, dude? It isn't some old wives tale or the random musings of some fitness "guru", there were actual studies carried out, one was done by the prestigious Princeton Uni, too. ;) And ketchup is indeed low cal, but it contains too much sugar and diabetes runs in the extended family, I'm being cautious. :)

Brand name? :)

*Googles* That looked amazing, lol, then I read the ingredients....HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP! *Alarm Bells* High Fructose Corn Syrup Dangers 1. Significant Risk of Weight Gain & Obesity 2. Increased Risk of Developing Type-2 Diabetes 3. Hypertension and Elevated “Bad” Cholesterol Levels 4. High Fructose Corn Syrup &…

LOL Sa11lyjane xD I read it as drops, didn't even notice :laugh: Awesome suggestions so far \o/ Will be trying all of them! :bigsmile: @Percival: My cooking capabilities range from frozen fish fingers to packet mixes of biryani and stuff! But spices link gave me inspiration to experiment with herbs, some chives would…

Authentic Japanese food? Sounds good! I'll be keeping an eye out for it :D
