I also see that lots of people do not want to pass on their bad habits towards their children in regards to poor eating and counting calories. My kids are step kids (obviously) and they do not know about my calorie counting. I keep it away from them and never mention it. They do however know I am trying to eat better so I…

I cook dinners here and do the groceries. I still buy things for my boyfriend and step kids I don't eat. I can sit here and watch him have ice cream, pringles, pizza... whatever without caving. If I want something that bad I've always got snacks for me that are better or I can have some fruit/veg/healthy snack. It's not…

No but I do know how much they 'should' be eating based on their age, height and weight. It only helps me make decisions on how much of a meal they should be eating (I think they are underfed when they go home to their mum's house as she complains if they put on any weight but they are underweight and small for their age)…

Yep. Even though I was a fat teenager I'm smaller than I was in my final year of highschool. It may only be by 2kg but I'm still lighter and steadily getting smaller. She may be confused with the way your body reacts to food and exercise or the general shape and skin elasticity. But as a general 'you can't be thin like you…

burritos that are as fat as your arm.

I hate this saying because it breeds over restriction and denial. Life is about enjoying things. I don't think skinny tastes better than ANYTHING because you can have both at the same time. But... if we have to go there..... pringles bacon cheesecake pickled onion cheese, cabanosi, water crackers and olives majority of…

My MFP friends know that the advice of suggestions I give are not chastising them and not 'telling' them what to do. If they have a open diary I'm going to comment. Don't like it? Keep it hidden. We're all here for support and advice as far as I'm concerned and lots of my MFP friends are real life friends so they know what…

Lol dramatizing hits already happens like mad over here. Our league has never given up fast derby which I love. We only ever use stop derby when we have a power jam and that's the same with knee starts. We are also trained correctly and would get benched for doing something continuously that *could* cause a penalty that we…

I made the mistake of weighing today. No gain. But no loss :( I'm bloated too so no measurements!

Omg half my friends list is on their period or at least pmsing right now. I play roller derby so I'm guessing half my league is too. That synching up thing must spread like bloody wildfire lol. I want to eat all the things. Particularly those that are really processed carbs. ALL THE BREAD! ALL THE PASTA! ALL THE BAKERY…

Thanks guys!!

noone has any? Awesome.

I do stationary bike and weights to work my shoulder muscles to prevent dislocations. I do squats ALL THE SQUATS, russian twists, lunges... wall sits... fun times. We do an offskates session once a week at training and I pick up moves from that and do my own circuits at home. I usually exercise 3-4 days a week. I've found…

Awkward. No I don't have any advice other than claiming another wife. lol. I have a wife but she's on a life hiatus. Broke up with her life sucking boyfriend and I hope it gives her the kick in the pants she needs to get back to skating. She's not passed freshies yet but I cannot wait to belt her and work in a pack with…

1) I delete friends when they get too involved in the drama, haven't logged in for ages and never really interacted 2) I feel guilty when I don't check out everyone's 'stuff' during the day and don't have time to flick through their diaries 3) I wont comment on diaries that are under without looking at them first, I'm not…

Noone else has seen this?

Lol me either.. wait a minute.... I must be doing something wrong!!! My boyfriend my be sneaking fat blaster powder in my food.

1. Did you split amicably- no. I waited till he was at work and bolted with police assistance. 2. Did you kill each other during the process-no. Little contact as possible so there wasn't any time to get angry. 3. Was the divorce due to cheating-Other than the domestic violence yes. He had a problem with trawling online.…

It is never ok to hit or push. Ever.

The diamond ring I was going to buy? I don't have to buy that for myself anymore... the boyfriend is going to do it for me. No weddings or engagements. He's just very proud.

No it's only been at the lower level since I stopped losing at it adjusted me to that weight when I got to 90kg. I lost 600gm this week so I guess it's not too bad.

wow that's so much more than what I'm eating. I'm going to try going back up to 1600 as I was losing there and that's 30% under my TDEE without exercise and eat more of those calories back. Seems I'm not eating enough. Bonus! MAOR FOOD!

I limit processed foods because I like to be able to see what I'm putting into my body and track everything that happens. I'm re learning about food and nutrition and changing my relationship with food. However, I still have them. They just aren't the highly processed things I would usually eat. Like oven baked chicken…

Fantastic. You'll go wherever you want to with that outlook. Congrats and I'd say good luck with the rest of your journey but you already have your *kitten* together!

Thanks everyone!

I lost 15-20kg 33-44lbs a few times in my early 20s. All by idiot methods. Atkins, cabbage soup diet, lemon and cayenne pepper diet... ya know all the culprits. I regained it because I wasn't taught anything about diet and maintenance. Actually I didn't know there was such a thing until recently. I didn't exercise and…

If I lived by the rule of 'don't log things you did while you were fat' I wouldn't be able to log training for roller derby. I can burn up to 1000 calories a session for that. That's stupid. I'm not going to log little bits of housework but if I'm moving furniture or doing yard work I would! I rarely eat back any of my…

Cara, thankyou. This is one of the comments that nearly had me crying. It doesn't feel so far away but I do want it to be now lol.

I was 226 and now 197. I've only really noticed inches off my hips, a little on my thighs and bust only recently. I was an 18-20 which I think is the same as 16-18. My 18s are a little loose and I can fit into some 16s but not in pants/skirts or fitted tops. I realised that I was probably wearing the wrong size and should…

Yes. This is called the 'teapot' unofficially. Lol. The whole crowd sings 'I'm a little teapot' and I do the actions. Heh.
