It has to be. Because I think that is...impossible. 15 lbs in a week? I mean, if that is correct, it's downright impressive.

It depends on what sort of vegetables. Like, potato...vegetable, yes. Full of carbs, yes. But stuff like broccoli are less carbs. Salads are really low on carbs, as are mushrooms. Mushrooms are actually amazingly low in calories as well (a good bulker for meals). In short: pick the fruits and vegetables that are low carb…

I'm a cowboy... On a steel horse I ride....

I am never going to the loo ever again in case he is there..........

I believe that MFP is more than the community: it's also about the actual counting. I think that some people posting here are finding other things to blame for their weight gain. University, work, stress, ect. It is all in the tone of a post. Don't get me wrong, I know that the first step towards fitness and health is…

By all that's holy....that is terrifying!!!

Where do we start... Are you eating within calories? Are you logging everything? Do you have a medical condition that could prevent you from losing weight? Do you want to lose weight? A little more information would help people give advice :smile:

Snowflakes sing songs from Frozen methinks... "Let it go, let it go, there's magical calories that don't count" :wink: Ignore me, I have had way too much caffeine today.

I get more snacky. I also allow myself a few more calories if I get so hungry I can't stop myself. Not that many, but enough to scoff some low fat snack. It's more when I am on that I find myself wanting to eat full fat, carbie, full iron things. Right now, I am contemplating eating the loaf of bread I have in the kitchen.…

Lunch: Sandwich with pastrami, mustard and gerkin. (240kcal) Porridge pot. (270kcal) Occasionally a pulled beef sandwich of a falafel sandwich I buy in the supermarket (310kcal and 270kcal). Melba toast and hummus, plus a cheese stick. Snack: fruit pot Special K chocolate moments biscuit Walker's French Fries or another…

This thread is shiong mao niao. In a rather addictive way, actually. Sorry, couldn't resist! Your tracker made me sigh wistfully.

Oh, also... Quitting smoking is like when you say you have a headache: you will get 1 000 000 different answers and stories of how it is done! Everyone is unique, find what works for you!

I quit awhile back. I started on the nicotine products to help with the craving (not e cigarettes!!! It is breaking a habit, not just removing the smoke). In my case, it was mints. So I was on them for awhile. Then I cut back on the nicotine mints but took normal sugarfree mints instead. It's hard. But you can do it. Your…

As someone who comes from somewhere so cold the Scandies fled to Minnesota from there...can't bloody blame you! Cars have their uses. Like preventing you from freezing to death just to get to school.

It's not just about that. It's about what is available at the time, if landlords want to let to them, ect. Not being funny, but I don't drive because the choice I had when I was 18 was a driver's license or my parents helping me with moving abroad. I chose to go and study abroad. I ended up in London. I don't live central…

Want to lose weight? Eat less. How do you know you are eating less? Counting calories. More effort? Than what, just doing the motion from plate to mouth? More destructive? As opposed to overeating? Discouraging? What, losing weight is discouraging? If you are lazy or have no will power, dieting will not work. You have to…

Same here! It was very helpful today when I was wandering the dessert section at my local shop.....................

Quick answer, personally? No. The shock and horror and sheer brutality of it is part of the story and the books. The gore of it suits it; the theme of it, the darkness. I mean, I am watching something based on George RR Martin's books. If I wanted a lighter version, I'd see if Robin Hobb had something cooked up from her…

As a book reader I knew it was coming. But seeing it...ouch. I think Martin would just name a character after you, make them really likable and then kill them as revenge for that bill. Love the Jaime/Tyrion interaction! Jaime Lannister is one of my favourite characters....I know, me bad. But he rocks. Sansa can do a…

I think you should be made a Saint! That is so adorable...and kind hearted of you! I usually have work to give my baking leftovers to, but I have stopped baking for a bit because it is so...bad. I am making some peanut butter cookies for the next get together with my friends. Might let myself have one...

I think I will do mine when there's a friend/family get together...it is that or taking it into work and being called a feeder...

That just made me smile in the one place where smiling is hard: at work when the general system is acting up!!

Holy smokes!!! I WANT IT!!! NOW!

I love food. I use it for comfort, for happiness, for social so on... I can never give up food...

OP: blah blah blah OP's friend: blah blah blah Us: Tried to talk to her, sod it, let's have fun talking and posting recipes and gifs And then it got shut down. And then HLB decided to follow us here! Tada!

Well.... Good to see you!!!

Coca cola for me. Full sugar loveliness. And I like bad stuff. Cheese. I adore cheese. I can't live without cheese...luckily, my Marks and Spencer have these cheddar cheese lunchbox bites which are 50 kcal each. So I can get my cheese addition on my calories. However, coke does nothing for me, unfortunately. So instead I…
