Did you go vegetarian for moral or health reasons (or both?) I don't understand how someone can abandon their morals just for a taste based decision, but that's just me.

To feel comfortable in my body again, and to fit into my old clothes...

Not all vegetarians/vegans secretly love meat... I love 'meat' on the animal when they're still alive (; but each to their own.

As a vegan I think it's a shame, and I don't see how eating meat will be connected to weight loss or feeling better (unless you were lacking in things you didn't take care of as a vegetarian), but whatever you think is best for you! :)

My boyfriend and I live together, and we aim to spend £25 ($38) week for everything food related... sometimes it creeps up to £30 though.

I'll join you in the giving up thing... I rarely eat chocolate and don't really care for it, but I LOVE crisps ugh, so want to be crisp free for august!

LENTILS. *shudders*

I do...usually 3 times a week, I struggle to get up to my calorie total otherwise.

Chill out with the incorrect spelling in the title guys, don't be the grammar police, not everyone is perfect at spelling (: I don't really have anything to add... I lost a lot of weight when I was younger, just by drastically cutting my calorie intake, it wasn't healthy and I had no energy to do anything (study etc) let…

I'm 5'11 and aiming for 140 (i'm 159 now), I have a very small frame and 160 is just blah for me... I used to weigh 120 which was a bit too thin looking back on it.

Ugh it's not just kids, I got called 'thunder thighs' by a guy at a gig once. Life was awesome. I'm sorry that some people are so rude ):

19, and England!

ironicusername- your haircut is so cute! Wish I could pull shorter hair off

^ love the dress! 9 (:

welcome! almost no meat and dairy is the way to go (i'm vegan) (: feel free to add if you want support!

<3 i'm sorry to hear that, hopefully with myfitnesspal and the support on the (ridiculously nice in my opinion!) forums you'll be able to get where you want to be! Feel free to add me/chat any time.

Accepted (: ooh nice, how does it feel finally finishing uni? I'm only one year in!

Welcome! feel free to add if you want, and message any time (: what did you study at uni?

Are you going to make a proper group? (: I'm 19/5'11/160lbs... just want to lose 15/20lbs and tone up/get fit. Anyone feel free to add me/message me and strike up a chat! (:

Serious well done! I want to quit (mainly because of how much it costs!) but finding it hard (to be honest I haven't even tried haha). Keep it up (:

The Kinect Adventures always kicks my boyfriend and i's *kitten*, and it's not even a fitness game haha. It's loads of fun too I have almost all the dance games, it's fun to play with friends or on my own... and it doesn't feel like exercising. What everyone else has said- you get out of it what you put into it.

How could i forget- you HAVE to try it on homemade popcorn. Low cal and so good!

As a vegan who eats nutritional yeast a lot, I can offer some insight(: It looks like powdery flakes... and tastes kind of cheesy and nutty. Great for making vegan cheese sauce (: Or use it in place for cheese on pasta, sprinkle it on salads, etc. It's also a great way to dry out things you're cooking (eg. if i'm cooking…

When I was younger (12-16) I just wanted to be THIN, skinny, whatever you want to call it, and went about getting there rather stupidly and recklessly. Now i'm a bit older I want to be FIT and happy. (Happy being something i never was before!) (:

I always use lemon juice for a salad dressing... or just sprinkle chilli powder/dried herbs/nutritional yeast over the top, i'm boring ha.

Sorry if someone's asked before- but would it work with soy yoghurt/soy milk instead? (:

I love coffee any way... soy lattes, soy cappuccinos, black, with sugar, without sugar, iced... just as long as it's coffee ;p

I used to use livestrong. Myfitnesspal is ten times better (and the community is better too!)

I will definitely try to reach my calorie goal every day... it's just surprisingly hard when you're not hungry/are genuinely full :3 I think i'll be using my snacks to bump the total up!

Welcome! I plan to lose 15-20ish, depending on how i'm feeling along the way... feel free to add for extra support (:
