LOL!

I know you're taking the p*ss...but I have tears from laughing... :laugh:

True! I also ate kiwifruit recently to get me moving.

19 years of thyroid medication makes me debilitated with constipation at times. I've also tried it all. Prunes, pears, pear juice, coffee on an empty stomach, as well as far harsher stuff (chemicals) like ballerina tea, and laxatives. I got so bad recently I was almost hospitalised. Nothing worked. I kept going to the gym,…

Uhh...18 cups of water a day? Our stomachs are only so big...and we have to get food in there as well...and who wants to be running to wee every few minutes? That really sounds over the top to me...

I don't know if anyone will relate to this, but here goes... Years ago (I've been a big girl since losing my thyroid 19 years ago, but never as big as I was before starting here this year), I would have been a size 16 I guess, always felt absolutely humungous! But people would always say to me 'you're not big!'. I never…

I'm a mad animal lover, all sorts of animals. We have 3 cats of our own who are the most amazing girls. We absolutely love them to pieces. I'm involved in a few different animal welfare causes and organisation. Recently I was asked to assist in the rescue of 30+ cats from an outer laying area where a hoarder had 'saved'…

I tried the Godfather one and didn't like it...but the meatlovers one I really enjoyed. They are high in protein and high in fibre too :)

Am I the only one here who really doesn't give a rats what anyone else looks like? I'm also not aspiring to be model thin. I just want to be healthy! In body, mind and spirit. And happy, content...with enough energy to do the things I do on a daily basis.

^^ This... It's all about quality of life. The child's and the people around the child. Don't deny them medication if it improves, or gives them any sort of quality of life. Just make sure you monitor any side effects. (Mother of almost 20 year old with ODD, ASD and ADHD) :flowerforyou:

Well done on your attitude to people and to life....plenty of other people would have taken offense at that post to you, but you were kind and laughed it off. And you're right, summer IS just about to start :)

As I'm eating, or as I'm preparing a meal to see how many calories it's totalling. I use the recipe section a fair bit, put it all in, tweak it, and work out how much of it I can eat. But definitely as I go along, or I'd never remember everything. There are so many little things I used to take for granted that I now…

Elmo Pedicures :)

All I know is that our gym has one, I hopped on it once, laughed myself silly for about 8 minutes, we left, and on the way home in the car I was really starting to hurt (in a good way)...so it obviously does something???

I've lived in 34 different places, including 2 countries. I suffer PTSD and currently don't work because of it. I will advocate for animals, children and people with a disability to the point of being taken to court, but I have no self belief. I volunteer at my local animal refuge several times a week, and believe I get…

:flowerforyou:

My son too lol...Aspies are AWESOME!

Holy cr*p....I'm going to have that song stuck in my head all day now...bwahaha!!! :laugh:

To the OP... Yesterday I didn't get anywhere near my calories. I think I ended up at around 800. This is not normal for me, but I wasn't phased. I need to lose weight and I've not been losing much for about 3 weeks now. I stepped on the scales and had dropped 500g. I'm on target today and have eaten healthy, had a good gym…

And a thank you from me as well. People are SO opinionated and everybody is right! *rolls eyes*

Best and Less... :laugh: I live in a small town...and there's NOTHING! I often eBay it, but it's really hard buying workout clothes without trying them on. I really struggle. And I've never heard of Lorna Jane.

I'm both a sweet AND savoury person, but the hardest thing for me was chippies....all that lovely salt and the crunchy texture. I haven't had a chocolate for months and don't miss it at all...but chippies...OMG!

Chicken breast Silverbeet Eggs Milk (skim and regular for my son) Mushrooms Celery Lettuce Red Capsicum Red Onions Brown Onions Potatoes (for my son) Sweet potatoes Bottled water Avocado Chilli Garlic Energy drinks (leftover from the days when...) Tomatoes Cucumbers Olives Butter and 70% fat free Flora Margarine Greek low…

Maybe I should invest in one of those old fashioned scales you have to put the weights on til you get to your weight and it balances out. Pretty sure there's one at the hospital here :)

You're very welcome :)

I have no words... Sitting here reading this with my eyes boggled wide open... I can loan you 5 bucks...but I'm in Australia lol

My eyes...and my loud raucous laugh.

^^ This!!! :flowerforyou:
