  • I got drunk off my *kitten* Friday night, had a burger on Saturday and a massive Sunday roast with a cheeseboard and half a bottle of wine. Don't feel bad in the slightest as I walked for about five hours Saturday daytime and worked three really hard nights at work where I spent all night running up and down stairs If I'd…
  • Somewhere between 5'3" and 5'4" here, initially wanted to aim for 126, but wondering if I might look better about 130-135, I'm pretty hourglass shaped and last time I was really thin (went down to 112 after a horrific breakup) my *kitten* went concave and my chest pretty much vanished, which definitely wasn't the…
  • Everything, apart from on the occasional 'day off', like when we had people round for dinner and made a whole bunch of tapas which would have destroyed my brain to try and calculate, or if I've given myself a weekend of not thinking about it like this last weekend when I was away at a festival. Sure, it'll probably mean it…
  • Same! Went to a festival over the weekend and basically ate/drank my bodyweight in cider, pie and rum. Although it was somewhere really mountainous and my *kitten* muscles hurt every day from walking, do hopefully might have exercised/danced a good amount of it off! Back to my black coffee, no sugar ad bowl of veg couscous…
  • I don't count work, even though there are days I spend running up and down stairs the entire day and others I spend at my desk. Never count walking to work either, even though the first thing I did when I started this was make myself stop getting the bus. Do often wonder how many calories I burn when I'm up to my eyes in…
  • Same here, slumped to a hell. Been working different hours to usual and have found it tricky to find exercise times (I usually work nights and exercise in the mornings, but have had a couple of weeks of day shifts, so the outdoor gym is locked up by the time I get home) Have also had a bunch of days recently of spending…
  • Urgh! I feel just like that today. Might be owing to some late nights' work followed by some bad nights' sleep, but even putting on my exercise clothes has been a struggle today, and it's raining torrentially, so not too keen in my plan b which is usually a long brisk walk somewhere. Think I might grit my teeth and…
  • I'd say so, superproud to be having a small one as an excercise day treat to myself instead of a giant one every day!
  • Had a big weekend, spent the Saturday in the pub having massive burgers, drank all evening and stayed in bed with a pizza all day the next day. Got up the next morning, fell over the (giant) pizza box on the way to get dressed and realised that the clothes I'd bought the previous summer when I was already horrified that I…
  • Try What Katie Did, they've got pretty not to expensive nicelooking vintage type shape wear in a load of different styles, bridal section on the website too, I think. Sorry if this sounds like an ad, it isn't, just wear me a lot of them girdles! Www.whatkatiedid.com
  • 100% with you on the vintage frocks! I've been all different sizes over the years, so am in the happy position of adding stuff I love back into my wardrobe every couple of weeks- swear everyone thinks I've suddenly become really stylish as have been able to wear all the things that have been glaring at me from the rail for…
  • Have you tried changing exercise? I found doing something different to what I had been really made me more likely to go out and do it. Also found that walking is like free calories burned looking at pretty scenery in the sunshine…
  • London here! I don't have any friends yet either, only really started engaging with anything other than the calorie counting app this last couple of weeks..
  • The recipes are all going up here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/programmes/p00vq8c6 (Not sure how to clicky, sorry) Just noticed there's a third set gone up as well. Including a PIE!! Pretty happy with that, you know, been craving pie for AAAGES..
  • Thinking about it, though, it's good that it's the reason my clothes look a bit tight rather than my EXCUSE for my clothes being too tight!
  • My food's usually pretty close to accurate, but I've been walking loads more places than I used to (and finding longer ways to walk back from places on nice evenings and such) and never log unless it's like a two hour walk or something. Which I suppose is pretty much the same…
  • AMAZING!! Now I know. Thanks!
  • Quick question; how much counts as a serving? Gave up trying to track my water on here, as I've got no idea how much a cup is (from UK!) Been measuring myself by drinking out of 500ml bottles, and have been drinking 1.5-2L per day, and don't really know how to record..
  • Flapping about my boyfriend's house Sunday morning getting ready for work in a hurry (and a bit of a sulk, having been called in on my day off..) Walked into the living room and his flatmate blurted out "Jesus Christ! You're TINY now!" Somehow, my work sulk evaporated after that...
  • Brilliant! Thanks so much! Also: So THAT's what an elliptical trainer is!
  • Managed to fit into the jeans I managed to buy in a size to small in January time (bit of a dumb moment, tried them on, decided I wanted them in a shorter length and picked up same length/smaller waist by mistake) I wore them twice, with a hair band over the button to make them stretch a bit at the waist and give up cos…
  • I've been doing ease into 5k for the last six weeks(which is pretty similar, I think?), am struggling a little bit at the minute to break the back of my first 20minute run, but considering how hard I found my first six minute run not all that long ago, am confident I'll get through it tomorrow (drafted in the young man for…
  • Hi there! Heading for two months in now and could definitely use some mutual motivation, as am too starting to sag a bit! UK as well Xx
