Had a nutritionist at my derby training tonight. He gave us the scientific reason WHY a cal is not a cal. Although at the end of the day you may get the same amount of energy from it, the way the body processes it is different. For a general rule proteins and complex carbs take 3-4 hours to break down and if not used will…

Oh my this. We had a nutritionist at our training session tonight and this is exactly what he said. You need fat, carbs and protein to function properly. The reason (if you honestly need to lose weight and I don't want to trigger worse behaviours) that you aren't losing is because you aren't eating enough so if you ate…

Hahah my friend who depends on shakes or meal delivery services used this a few times and swears by it. However she said to only have it on days off or holidays. Couldn't think of a worse way to spend relaxing time. No wonder she yo yos...

Making sure you are fueling your body properly even though you might not feel like it so it's working properly to recover. Keep warm but don't over heat. Trying to stay at the same temp as much as possible will help your body stay at the right temp to fight the bugs without too much strain. Water, you need to increase by…

I don't have a favourite (a savoury girl here) but anything with super bitter dark chocolate or pop rocks gets me every time. Or dark chocolate with chilli. Omg.

Because uh if it is.... you need to stay close to the bathroom and you'll probably end up very sick and putting on more weight than you lost.

I've just looked at your diary and having 500-700 cals a day is not enough. Sorry to be rude but I think she has hidden them for a reason.

*raises eyebrow* is this senna as in senna cot the natural laxative?

Yep. White carbs make my bum huge. So I try to get as much protein as I can and my carbs from complex sources such as whole grain breads and vegetables. I also know when I eat too much salt I get bad migraines and the weight stays on.

Always stretch gently and try and have a warmish shower if you are at home to help the process. When I have muscle soreness I up my protein to help muscle recovery.

Watch cooking shows. Go for skates outdoors. Annoy my cats. Sing badly and annoy my neighbours. Take bus rides with my step kids.

I use the pizza pan with the holes and mine are perfect. However I only use half a cup of cheese and make sure all my toppings are even on the pizza all the way to the edge. Got the thumbs up from my chef boyfriend last night and honestly, these take less effort than ordering online. Next time it's 'pizza night' we will be…

If it's anywhere near the knee cap or directly behind you need to get to a physio now. Infact, go now and make sure. Knees are not something to be playing silly buggers with. Trust me. An ACL injury has made my life hell because I ignored it. Better to be safe than sorry. They can also give you exercises to help build the…

Dress sense/style

bahahahah I do that all the time! 'I was wondering what was wrong with me!'

You know what else I hate? My opinion being disregarded because of my weight,. A friend was asking on facebook about michelle bridges (the aussie jillian michaels) vs lite 'n' easy (a meal delivery service for weightloss). She yo yos about 5-7 kg every 6 months and eats like **** but eats as much as a 5 year old so doesn't…

I've always enjoyed the foods I'm eating now so it wasn't hard to change. Like many people even though high cal foods (I'm not using the word bad) are pretty darn tasty and have their place, I'd always feel hungry after and have to have something else which was even MORE calories. I'd rather have something MASSIVE that…

LONG LIVE THE NANNY NAP! Yes! If I can get one in I do. Usually only once a month (a day off work or visiting parents) but at 2pm I'm running for the bed. I sleep anywhere from 1-2.5 hours depending on what I've been doing.

omg I just made this with a wheat and rye tortilla, bacon, chicken, mushroom, onion and bbq sauce. Holy moley. CANNOT STOP EATING. Mine came in at 405 and I've got a big salad to go with it. I WILL EAT THESE A MILLION TIMES A WEEK!!! YUMMEH!

omigosh if my step kids did this they'd be on the naughty spot until their bums turned square! FAT is a swear word in our house. We always have big talks about why calling people names is not cool and why making fun of someone because of the way they look makes you look like the worst person in the world. I really really…

bahahahhahahahahaaa I get this ALL the time. My friends flip out when they find out how much I weigh and what size I am in clothing. Yeah, I just have the courtesy to be fat all over!! bahahaha When I went wedding dress shopping (2-3 sizes bigger than I am now) and they were shocked I was a 22-24 and tried to put me in a…

Yes, I always make my own sauces, well except the canned tomatoes and even then I use the reduced salt ones, BUT I have a chef for a boyfriend who has taught me alot and my mum was a brilliant cook when I was a kid and have always had an interest in cooking and trying new things. I don't usually make my own pasta but I…

I'd say it's water retention with all that sodium. But it is hard to say without knowing what you've been eating prior to that. Unfortunately with the 'I don't like veggies' you're going to have to get used to them if you really want to see a change, if any at all. Your diet is very limited and very processed. Trying to…

URG! YES! 'Shame, she's so pretty!' fffff so it's not ok that I have a nice face when I've got a big bum? Is that reserved only for thin people? Am I stealing something? My mum is bloody strange. She tut tuts about my weight and tells me things like 'I am worried you are going to die' jeez ma! I'm not that big! And then…

omg-yum. I am so doing this tomorrow for my lunch. I have a bout on that night and not sure what food I can grab at the canteen there. This will ensure I get all my veg and stuff! Whoop!

My work team is going out for breakfast this morning. So I didn't go insane on calories I can't account for (I don't know what's in much of it) I ate a good breaky before going so I can just have a fruit salad and tea! WHOO!

Went and bought my first ever workout outfit. And runners. And completely intend on using them!

Uh so I've uploaded so pictures of myself. But I have no idea how to get them posted here... oops

Today I was lamenting the short fall in bacon in my new diet and you had to post this! Lucky I have 1000 cals left today!

Agreed. If you aren't good at them focus on form rather than quantity. I physically can only do knee push ups but I have great form and can do all the variations. My fav is pyramids. They hurt but they are fantastic. I use my derby knee pads to support and cushions my knees, lift my lower legs off the floor to make a 90…
