My sis eats almond dream ice cream - does that help?

Oh indeed, they thought (this is all by memory so I could be wrong) that it was actually a combo of both

I've been reading this with much interest. About a year ago i watched a series on TV (BBC I think) about different diets around the world and another about how we process food and the speed it goes through. The cultures that ate very little meat 'dispatched' their waste 3 times a day which was a lot faster and more…

I didn't know about the protein thing on the chart either. I've been struggling to get enough protein so I need to check it and see if it's right? Added I just used this funky tool thing and my protein just went down by 40 - blimey. Thanks for the tips :) http://fnic.nal.usda.gov/fnic/interactiveDRI/

I've got the Surge and I love it. I don't measure distance or steps...I mainly use it for my overall calorie count and seeing how much I can stuff my face in the evening after a hard day outside. It does keep me on track and makes me work just that little bit harder...knowing that when I get home and sync it MFP tells me I…

To shouty bloke - stress is a major source of bad health. Maybe he should chill out and protect his heart. Look at the bigger picture - fat person running/ swimming whatever. This is a GOOD thing and people should be encouraged for doing so, instead of negativity about how unhealthy they are. Positivity is cumulative and…

@UltimateRBF watch this - it's the current UK exercise promotion thingy http://www.thisgirlcan.co.uk/

Would you say this lady is unhealthy? I am smaller than her yet no way near her fitness level. I don't think she promotes fat (like the running woman) myself.... I just see strength of mind and body. Strong men competitors aren't always the ripped kind (from what I have seen - I'm no expert).…

My allotment. I can spend all day outside digging and moving crap around and get a tan with it. Plus it makes me happy and gives me veggies :)

As an english person this cracked me up :D This is nice - esp after a hard day http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/4382/veggie-shepherds-pie-with-sweet-potato-mash

This is delish and easy :) http://ohsheglows.com/2014/04/07/almost-instant-chocolate-chia-pudding/

Again - personal perception. Interesting nonetheless who perceives it as promoting and validating different things.

Have you ever seen photos of swimmers that cross the English Channel? They come in all shapes and sizes and by god they are strong and have stamina. I think it's a good thing to see fat people exercising. I'd rather see that than just 'model' physiques. To me it promotes exercise not obesity - I guess it's how you…

Deffo - I eat a lot of bought pilchards in tomato sauce. Btw if you have pets my dogs LOVE the drained oil from the tinned fish over their dinner. Good for them too :)

Love them. I like them on cheeseless pizza ....the oiliness gives a nice mouthfeel and stops the dryness

It ain't that hard to understand really.... I know what he/she means....

Check out this girl - her recipes (in £s) tell you how much it would cost to make each thing. When I was skint I used her recipes a lot x http://agirlcalledjack.com/

I make chia jam http://ohmyveggies.com/how-to-make-chia-seed-jam/

Are you able to raise a handful of hens? Or quail?

They are sharp with a hint of sweetness - a bit sweeter than cranberries. Over in the UK we normally use redcurrants for jams and jelly for meats x

Oh what a shame - all my pumpkins died too, I have no idea why!

And your heart - I was wearing a HRM and it went up to 133 >:)

My kitchen smells of herbs now :)

Try this lady - I have her book and it's really good for my western palate :) http://www.madhur-jaffrey.com/index.php/category/recipes/

OhSheGlows thirded - really tasty stuff. Lots of vegan groups on Facebook too x

As rendress269 said people here are all subtley different (which is a good thing) but with a common goal. I myself drink soya and oat milk but if I did drink cows milk it would be semi skimmed. Only because I drink a lot of milk and I would get huge on full fat. I prefer full fat milk :) For my fats I eat a lot of nuts and…

I'm jealous - I'd love to grow apricots but I'm not sure we have the weather here x

At the moment yes. Diet for me is eating less because I'm a greedy wench who just eats too much. Food is wholesome there is just too much of it going in my gob!
