Im going to do my weigh in on Tuesday. One of the reasons is because Ive been away for a few days and the healthy eating has totally gone out the window. I have been tracking, but havent really cared what ive been eating. Thought I would get back on track today but I went out for some drinks last night, and the day after…

I'm away this week so I have no access to scales! I don't think I could've picked a worse week to do this challenge! Ive been tempted by biscuits and sweets all week :( if ive lost 2lbs it's nothing short of a miracle! I am coming home tomorrow, so my weigh in will be on Sunday morning, I'll post my results then! Good luck…

Hiya! I personally prefer the slim guy, or maybe the middle. I like some muscle on a man but not too much. But dont just take my word for it, you should be working towards the body that YOU want :)

OMG! 2285 calories for a SHRIMP PASTA?? What do they put in it? It kinda puts you off going as you wonder how much fat they must cook with for the calories to be that high!! I would consider having a cheesecake though hehe because I know they will be worth the cals!.. if I share it with someone thats half the calroeis so…

Ive done 2miles in 21.04, thats with a 1 minute walk in between. My 1 mile time is 10 minutes, although Im hoping to better that every week now. I run with a slight incline on the treadmill too, to burn a few extra calories. I suppose there is no 'good' time to run a mile in, just aim to beat the time every time you do it…

Yay 3rd time lucky lol

Dont know if this will work ....

Only my boyfriend knows because we are trying to do it together. If I started telling my friends, they would say thinks like 'what you mean, you dont need to lose weight! You look good as you are' .. which although is very nice of them, it will probably put me off track! And also, I want one of my friends notice and say…

it could be a number of factors, just be patient! I didnt lose anything in the first 2 weeks! But now ive lost 9lbs in the last 4! Everyone is different, your body might take longer adjusting to the dramatic change in food and exercise. Try taking measurements as well, weight isnt everything! I have noticed a dramatic…

I TRY to go to the gym 4 times a week.. At the moment though its been more like 2 as I have had work, and on top of that uni work which I have deadlines for. So I have been making my uni work my number one priority. I normally do, 30minutes treadmill (at least 25 of these running, but not necessarily without stopping) 15…

SW -154lbs Week 1 - 153lbs Week 2 - 151.5lbs Week 3 - 150lbs Week 4 - xxx lbs Total lost - 4lbs Was hoping to be in the 140's today for the weigh in! :( Going on holiday next week for a few days so thats not going to help me out in the slightest! I suppose any weight loss is a good loss :) Roll on next Sunday!

Last and only 20lbs to lose :) I started with 26lbs to lose now im at 17lbs! That is just a rough estimate though because I dont know exactly what my body will look like when I reach my goal! I may want to lose more or maybe less, we'll see! COMMON EVERYONE, WE CAN DO THIS!

Wow well done! You have completed the challenge already and we arent even at the end of week 3! You should be proud of yourself, considering you thought you didnt have a good week! Imagine what you could achieve if you did have a good week :) Kinda looking forward to weigh in on Sunday guys.. I think Ive had a good week…

Wow thats amazing!! I did Wednesday and yesterday, I have sorta cheated today cos I went to the gym instead :( But I still did SOME of the strength exercises and abs... :/ lol my whole body still aches soo much I can just about get on the floor to do the exercises! haha Im definitely going to keep at it, but the '30' day…

Great work everyone! I cant wait to be able to share my before and afters with you all!! Great thread

There is a fat person inside ALL of us, you just need to remember that.. None of us on here are finding this easy I can assure you.. Do you know how many so called diets ive been on in my life?? I cant even count. Its not like I really NEED to lose weight, I dont have any health problems because of it, Im not even…

Mushroom omelette made with 2 eggs and a splash of semi skimmed milk (no butter) - 200 cals max! And very filling

Raisins! - Just one hand full is around 100 calories. You would think because they are a dried fruit that they would be healthy, but loads of sugar is used to dry them :( And I only found this one out yesterday but ONE Haribo giant strawberry is 50 calories!! I know they are sweets but I was expecting 20-25 calories each!…

I feel scared all the time! The other week my friends asked me round for a takeaway, I did want to go, but I didnt want to binge on loads of food..! Well - I did binge.. but no where near as much as I would usually have done. Its all about self control.. What happens when you have lost the weight? Are you still never going…

Oh and for you mayonnaise lovers 1tbp contains around 100cals!! Im glad I dont like mayo lol

Why is everyone so afraid of potatoes? I read an article once that did research into the 'the highest energy foods with the least calories' and potatoes were on top of the list! I think they are an essential part of a healthy diet! If you mash them with tonnes of butter though, they aint! lol Indian and Chinese food .. I…

Hiya! Yea I will join you! I like to join challenges every once in a while .. That way if I feel tempted to reach for the chocolate or not go to the gym, I think how disappointed all you guys would be if I didn't reach the target! (even if you may not be disappointed haha) I've already joined the lose 10lbs in may…

Im definitely not going to! But you should learn more about portion sizes, and when you reach your goal weight you should be in a routine by that time. Ive always known how many calories are in things, ive just never cared about eating them. Now I realise how much I was over eating before. I think it will be a bit…

I do this too, and it really helps! I always leave something on my plate I try to keep myself distanced to anything I may be tempted with Weighing my food - never realised how much I was over eating before! If I fancy something a bit naughty, I will have a packet of skips or quavers, only 80 cals each and satisfies the…

I do because I usually go to the gym straight from work from 6:30-7:30 so I eat dinner when I get in. My appetite isnt very big but I dont like eating too late. I didnt realise that you were supposed to eat after working out, I just do it because it convenient.

Thats what I do! :laugh: tastes the same in a fraction of the time :smile:

Ive been having a jacket potato (small 200g around 150cals) with tuna and sweetcorn (80cals) no mayo or butter. If you dont like tuna you could have baked beans, but buy the low salt version if you are concerned about salt. It is very filling. Some people who are 'on a diet' are scared of carbs, but I dont think of myself…
