Hi, add me please :) I live in London and I'm in mid-30s. I've gained a lot of weight in the last few years and it just has to go. I have PCOS and it seems to be making it hard. I genuinely like healthy food. And I love exercising but this sudden weight gain made me very prone to injuries, so I end up having to take lots…

I just try to buy as many basic ingredient products as possible. But of course if I buy something prepared and packaged then I read the label religiously.

A few days ago my internet was down. I had to resort to asking people on the bus if they thought I was hot. And they were NOT as nice.

Well yeah, but still less from what they were eating before, right?
-
I think there IS one trick - it is called eating less :) That pretty much always works. There have been studies! :)

I agree which is why I don't advocate it. The main issue is always just overeating, that is pretty simple, the rest is minutiae. I just didn't like it how everyone was implying that girl who originally posted it was ignorant, urban myth believer.

I never said apply directly. But you jumping on that girl like she is telling you the earth is flat is just bad form. The truth is we don't know for sure. and it definitely is not as simple as calorie in and calorie out. although, if you do obey the calorie in and calorie out, you should be fine, because this is the…

Oh yeah, that's right. I forgot humans are a lot simpler creatures so for them it would only be calories in and calories out.

To all the people who are saying this myth was busted a long ago - here is an article from NATURE (you know, one of the most respected scientific journal out there) from 2009 written after an extensive research - http://www.nature.com/oby/journal/v17/n11/full/oby2009264a.html If everything was so simple - calorie in and…

You know what... beats me... The only thing I would recommend is eating less in the evening and more in the morning. If you eat 700kcal for dinner your body might not have the time to burn it off so it just puts away while you sleep. The advice I have always been given is: eat breakfast alone, share lunch with a friend,…

I absolutely love Wasabi. But them I am a sushi addict. :) I eat so much raw fish I could very well be a dolphin.

I had the same thing. It two-three weeks to heal. The only exercise I managed then was gentle swimming and lots of stretching. But generally I spent most of my time propped up on ice bags. And now I spend the extra 15 minutes doing as much stretching as I can, especially on my calves.

I think I have a completely different attitude than everyone here. I can't recall anything rude that anyone has ever said to me. Quite the opposite. Sometimes when I go back home my mum says: you've gained weight or there is more of you. And it doesn't hurt me at all. I mean, it's honest truth. I am glad she is saying it…

Yay! That is great. I have nightmarish calves. I can't ever wear boots! Even those 'extra width' ones. Loose clothes are the best! The day my boyfriend took my jeans off without unzipping them, I knew I was on the right track ;-)
