Don't worry, it's probably just water weight from all the sweating ... Just make sure to regulate water intake and it'll be up to target weight in no time! :-)

That's got to be the tastiest snake I have seen to date. I want it. Carb is my poison.

My two pence: Do what's right for you. You like snacks, snack! By the sound of it, they are good ones anyways, so I wouldn't worry about it. If you feel that your main meals are becoming too small and don't keep you satisfied because you are spending too many calories on snacks, reduce them! ETA: Just to be sure, you are…

5'8.5 SW: 205 CW: 156 GW: 154-ish I am pretty much where I want to be, I just have this magic number of 70kg in my head that I never have been at in my adult life, so I want to see whether it's achievable. I am now looking to get fitter and leaner, I have noticed that since losing weight, I am enjoying exercise more, am…

I appreciate all the great suggestions made in this post and they will certainly help me figure out how to lose the last couple of pounds and eat healthily. Making assumptions without knowing anything about me is not helpful. Simply telling me to change my diet is not helpful. There is no need for that.

Guys, thank you so much, there is a ton of useful information for me there to draw from, will check out the vid later on as well!

That sounds yummy! Will keep the spinach and cottage cheese in mind, they are some of my favs!

... and this is a really helpful response, because ...? 1. If you had read the posts carefully before bringing out the pitchfork, you would have noticed that I have mentioned my calorie goal - which is exactly where it ought to be. 2. If you don't have anything productive or helpful to say, why say anything at all? Are you…

I normally have cereal (grape nuts) or porridge with fruit for breakfast, omelette, salad or soup for lunch, then normally a cooked meal for dinner is anything from stir fry to fish burgers to falafel to pasta to goulash to curries. You are saying that to bring up protein, I have to reduce carbs or fat - well, that's…

Yeh, like an omelette :-) How do you do that? I am on 1500 net at the moment (very much sedentary) and can hardly scrape into the 70ies ...

Thank you, that is a great link to start with ... BUT, even with all those foods, if I take a few as an example of what I would like to eat and add up the cals to reach 100g of protein, I would not be able to fit much else in - and be left with a rather limiting choice of foods ...

Explain: what do you consider "processed"/"refined" carbs?

If you're hungry - eat. If you are craving - chew chewing gum, drink water, have an apple. :-)

Weigh up your portions and log everything you eat/drink!

Do the pin up rockabilly look with proper hairdo and all, love the rollerskates idea too!!

Oh, and btw: you achieved a lot, just saw your profile pics - you look awesome!!! ;-)

I know what you mean, when people comment on my weight loss, I feel embarrassed. I am not entirely sure why, maybe because I am dreading the question "so how much have you lost" as that would mean I would have to admit how much I used to weigh. And there are people who just go on and on about it, even tho I change the…

:flowerforyou: I like you!

Love this one!!!

"banana's are not your friend, they are bad."

Saved for baking delicious bread later ...

First of all, I would log everything. One of the most important things is to be honest about it - even though it is only to yourself. Secondly, apparently, it helps leaving the food wrappers (in case of bought snacks, maybe the tin with the crumbs in case of homemade cookies) in sight, so your brain can remind you about…

Amazing job, well done!!! That's what I call dedication!! :-) You look great!

^^ This! You haven't put the weight on in a month, you won't lose it all in a week. Slow and steady does the trick, don't restrict yourself too much, so you can still have "comfort" treats without feeling like you're failing or giving up before you tried. Don't stress about exercising, you have to make changes that are…

Please tell me you're trying to be funny here.

^^ This! Nomm! :laugh:

Simplez! ;-)

Proper food.

<<< That's my view. Love it. Mountains are good too. Enjoy!

Before you do this, watch the film "Into the Wild". Then think again. Not saying don't do it, but one needs to know what one is doing.
