dont worry too much about the few pounds gained in a few days.. mostly its water weight.. you were probably having a lot fo salt based foods :wink: just keep having loads of water.. and about the cravings.. your body might be low on nutrients.. try snacking on vegetables, salad without dressings and fruits.. that way you…

thank you so much :blushing: you a doll dewdrop! :flowerforyou: and please dont get low on motivation. i was reading your previous messages and they've been kindov :frown: everything seemed well till your vacations.. and then.. ??? and hey you.. dont you delete your account either.. you know how it is.. some weeks are…

hey there everyone seems like everyone is doing great at the weigh ins.. good luck to you all.. emm. i'm going off this for a long while now.. emm.. i'm pregnant. heh.. emm i'm happy.. but apprehensive and i dont know.. kind of feeling overwhelmed.. ofcourse i was planning it.. but you dont know what to feel till it really…

im still at 130 :cry: feeling kindov low on myself for the last few days.. havent put in the 15 minute workout myself either. was tied up with guests and entertaining. and now id be travelling for a few days... so walk hopefully stays.. workout i dont know.. and the pounds.. hope they begin to fall soon now.. good luck…

hey guys i have the same problem.. top it all i have the big bad sweet tooth.. sometimes id rather skip lunch.. and just eat some sweets with tea.. ofcourse staying within my caloric limits.. hehe.. so i did some search.. adn came across this.. makes sense i think http://caloriecount.about.com/grams-sugar-consuming-ft99585

sighs... just not hungry now.. that a good thing?? :happy:

i've been doing my cardio except for the one off day i had.. but been missing out on the ab workout.. and the results are obvious.. tummy feels kindov NOT so lean.. which it really wasnt much earlier either.. but then thats relativity eh! :blushing: this is issue number 1 for today. issue number 2: i am just not hungry. at…

its quite crazy actually.. because otherwise i have the biggest sweet tooth imaginable.. fruit addict and what not.. i no longer have issues with junk sweets though *phew however, when pmsing.. i'd wake up dying for an omlette with loads salt and pepper in it :huh: oh well.. walk, walk, walk all the way it is then.. hehe..…

carb cravings!!! :sad: i want!!! but yes youre right.. and i crave the oddest things out of nowhere heh! worst part is the bloat.. and some days i feel like eating nothing the entire day even with the power walk.. others.. i cant have enough!!! thank you so much though.. will stay on the track longer tomorrow on :drinker:

apparantly doing atleast some exercise helps with mood swings and all. and when i do my usual walk yes it does. but later i'm drained to the core.. and doing anything else is just out of question.. :yawn: is it true that you burn more calories when pmsing :noway:

absolutely.. and i'd love to know your recipes on it too.. :smile: :flowerforyou:

im from Pakistan. cooked indian vegetables was basically my shortcut. i will edit it with some more details later :wink: Its summers here. and one can find some great vegetables. so i end up having those more often than not. plus you can cook them as low fat as you want.. and can get the flavors out using indian /…

sure!! i'd love to try yours.. though when i cook them as a side for breakfast (when i have guests over) its slightly different.. less of the spices and more of canned tomato paste and umm some ketchup.. makes it slightly sweet and goes great with sausages and scrambeled eggs..

oh by the way.. i skipped my daily doze of walking... so that could be a factor :sad: emm the actualy taste comes from the spices you use.. i put in.. salt, black pepper, green chillies minus the seeds, crushed corriander seeds and emm.. yea i think thats all.. you could use a variety of other spices.. cumin seeds, cayenne…

hey April.. its really simple. presoaked the beans and then wasehd them thoroughly. sautee onion and garlic in some oil and add the beans. cook till tender. add some tomatoes and cook some more till the tomatoes are all mashed and theres a nice gravy. add salt and spices to taste. emm and thats about it.. do you think i…

thank you MissMessy.. though i ended up having just a few spoons with some bread.. somehow it felt heavy and emm couldnt eat more than that.. and hey.. congratulations for the 8kg loss :flowerforyou:

oh. and. my goal weight is.. *drum roll please* 126 lbs.. or atleast 128. no 126 feels better.. argh.. i better stop this.. heh!

hey everyone!! phew yesterday was a hectic day.. as is today so ill just keep it short and sweet (ahem!) and come up later with a more detailed post. Height - 5'6" Weight - 132lbs (i thought i'd lost some.. atleast a fraction of a pound.. but nupe.. i haven't :cry: ) Calories in - approx. 900 Calories out - NONE thru…

someone please help us all scale addicts.. its like a compulsive disorder!! :sad: i've tried to limit myself too.. strange part is.. even when ive gained a few pounds.. my clothes dont fit all that bad.. i mean i can feel the difference but its not THAT bad.. and then i get on the scale.. and its the worst thing i can do..…

you look wonderfull! congratulations! i was over 70 kgs during my teens. and i thought i'd never lose it all. but now i've come down to 132lbs.. and i feel much better. but not perfect. here to lose another 5 lbs atleast.. and if theres some extra loss.. wouldn't mind heh.. sometimes it feels like i have an image problem..…

dewdrop all of those make sense to log in. plus sleep hours could also be added. i think most of us have bad sleeping patterns, which in itself leads to problems like snacking.. fatigue and inefficiency in workouts. oh and how about also posting in height with weight

aaaaa!! :angry: its horrible when that happens!! men can just melt away those pounds.. and we have to burn our bums off! but hang in there.. you are on the 'sure shot weight loss' track.. so rejoice! hehe :drinker:

i "know" what you mean. i don't ever remember the last time i was ok with mine. or that i ever felt i had truly reached my goal weight.. or felt good slash healthy about myself. although i dont eat all that off.. oh well.. keep us posted! :smile:

*mental note* get ready to freak yourself out missy. 01, july 2009. thou shall get on the monster machine..:sad: thank you.. g'luck to us all :drinker: by the way.. was going through your profile. you're taller than i am and you weigh less. do you really need to lose more? i know its the dreaded question.. but you look…

my guilty pleasure.. sweet stuff. i bet thats not a surprise.. but i'd like to think i work for it too.. plenty of walk and otherwise calorie smart.. but yes.. i am so there too. last 5 to go.. and stuck.. just stuck so badly. though everyone keeps saying it doesnt show and that its fine this way. and that i look healthy…

i agree. it always helps to log it all in the day before. especially the exercise routine. works as a motivation for me to stick to what i've planned.. though my weight is stuck at what it is :grumble:

thank you guys.. csingleton24: whenever i try to inccrease my walk time or increase my speed i start to get all these weird pains and aches. and then i need to take a few days off to let my body settle down. feels like fatigue but from what ive read of it.. its not 'that' easy to fatigue ones body out! its true.. ive just…
