As you will know already, as your weight decreases, activity becomes easier and less strenuous. You have amply described your current status and have a defined idea of where you want to get to. With those objectives set and your own clear determination, I believe you will be ticketyy boo . Keep up the good work and Good…

I make my glasses of liquid, tea, coffee, water all fit a 300ml drinking vessel (glass or cup) and just make sure i have a total of eight a day across all meals. This way I do not feel bloated.

The only opinion worth bothering with about you , is your own! When you are slim and happy you can enjoy the green eyed monster they will feel because they do not have your strength of character to stick to a healthy regime!

I'm with YoungDoc on this! The only opinion you need to worry about is your own! When you waft down the stairs glamorous and svelte-like, they will recognise they have a daughter/sister who knows her own mind and who is willing to work for what she wants! Then they will be proud of you!

Porridge is Good! As are kippers!

You make the assumption this weight gain is food based! Might that not not just be feelings of guilt? Did you consider "wrong time of the month" or water retention (or even pregnancy?) as possible causes? Stop angsting, and review your success to date, and follow your diary when you were being successful!

Easy test: when the shell dries immediately when you lift it out of water, it is soft boiled ready for eggy soldiers. For Hard boiled, leave it in the water for a further minute. Just like me mum taught me many eaons ago!

Tsch! ..... and all this time we have had the pleasure of you unwrapped! Damn it!

The Germans have a superb word for people who get pleasure from other peoples discomfort. They call it "shadenfreude" . One might believe the "1200 Calorie Haters" suffer from this condition. Do what works for you!

For 63 years, I have ignored my sugar intake but tried to eat healthily, but like everyone else have got overweight. I realised too late that daily excess sugars were being stored as adipose tissue (fats) on my back , belly, bum and thighs. Recently my GP confirmed diabetes, Now my diet is planned daily to eat things which…

As a bloke my view is, very pretty face (profile pic). PBucket photos show proportional body (but foreshortening of images caused by slanting downwards gives appearance of "chubby" legs,but as a photographer, I know this is illusion not fact). Have better piccy's taken by a friend so you are taken from a distance. You are…

Get your partner to stand in for you? LOL

I assume that any medically qualified specialist will only ask you to do something because it is a MEDICAL need. Ask her / him to explain their thinking, and explain to them why you feel confused!

Think of it NOT as a race, but as a self education in correct eating, both in amount and type. Dieting, like most things requires a sustained proper mental attitude to be successful!

My doctor advises simply "To lose weight, do not put it in your mouth!"

A small thing that motivates me is seeing my weight reducing using the pounds scale on my ticker bar, rather than waiting TWICE as long for the Kg scale to show a decrease. Psychological I know, but it works for me. For the same reason, I use Pounds lost, rather than Pounds to go which is a much bigger number and deflates…

Suggest you visit Car Boot Sales/ Garage Sales in your area. You will pick up a discarded Static Bike or Cross Trainer for a few Pounds/ Dollars!

Change your partner! He obviously feels little for your feelings or values.

Pumpkin Seeds for Protein!

I would love to see your research citations for this? :smile:

Simply use an every-day "over the counter" Nappy Rash Cream! Economic. Works well! Easy to obtain.

Not being a religious zealot, I am still minded to respond "Forgive them, for they know not what they do!" Be grateful you have the wisdom to recognise the hazards and the wish to take action in your own right. I am pleased that your self-esteem cannot be driven by their lack of knowledge or understanding. Stay tuned to…

I just buy a pack of 4 seeds (Pumpkin, Sunflower, Linseed and Sesame seeds), then empty them into my hand blender beaker and have at them with the hand blender. To store i use a plastic container, and to eat, I sprinkle 25 gms over my morning porridge. Easy Peasy and a great source of Protein.

Makes me question why your mum would have done that, unless she is vey concerned about your health or lack of eating? Would she be justified?

My personal thoughts are, that a relationship is not dependent on being open enough to do these in front of each other, but rather respecting each other NOT to to do them. I am as broadminded as anyone and yes, there are moments when "accidents" happen, but to be so disrespectful as to do them in front of your partner what…

Sugar is sugar! (aka adipose tissue aka "brown fats" aka big backs, tums , bums and thighs!

One tbspn of Nutella (11gm sugars) plus 1 x 100gm banana (21 gm sugars) = total 32 gm sugars I am only allowed 30 gm a day TOTAL! So unfair! :sad:

I am ONLY 6 foot 2" (he said diminuitively), but my weight flip flops widely also. In my case it is lymphoedema (water retention in the tissues). Check your hubby is not similar by putting thumb pressure on his shin firmly for ten seconds, then remove your thumb. If the imprint does not dissapear very quickly, then get his…
