  • i have UC, and I have learned the best way for me to lose weight is to move more. Diet is not the way to go, because any food can set me off for no reason whatsoever. Yes, I have foods I know to avoid that I learned from keeping a food diary and watching what happened. I have a dietician at my weight loss class who has…

  • I've had a mild case since I was a teenager. Doesn't really cause my any aggravation. Some see the discolouration and think the tips of my fingers are frozen.

  • Tall, being at least 6ft 2; dark eyes, the kind in which you can drown; an infectious smile; strong shoulders; and thick, dark hair.

  • I recently got a Zip in exchange for review. I'm happy with it, and it sits on the waist band of my trousers. It has a silicone case to protect it from sweat. Sometimes it is 2,000 steps out from my Fitbug, but that doesn't matter me, so long as both show 12,500+ steps a day, I'm happy. I use it to motivate me, as the…

  • I will buy myself three complete outfits: One from Joe Browns, one from Ness, and one from Monsoon, including shoes and accessories. Then, I will send a thank you note to everyone that helped me get there, and promise to maintain my healthy BMI.

  • Me, I pace up and down my living room while watching tv, or listening to music. It's only 10 steps across, but it's enough.
    in Walking is my exercise...but winter is near Comment by SH1969 November 2012
  • Okay, so I've increased my steps from 2,500 a day (average, but often lower) to over 10,000 a day and not changed my horrendous diet one jot and I've lost 2 kg already. Granted, its only Week One of this activity regime, and I expect the loss to drop considerably as my body adjusts, but even at 500 grams a week, that's…

  • I think everyone is different and, from other support groups, I've learned different foods affect individual sufferers differently. For instance, I can drink coffee (cold) and it helps especially during flares, but for others this is a big no-no. I can eat some fruits sans skin, others cannot. Beans, broccoli, cabbage and…

  • The sun was definitely out in Kent today, after a wet, wild and windy night.
    in Hi all from sunny Kent in the UK Comment by SH1969 November 2012
  • Hello from wet and soggy north-west Kent. I'm near the M25. Brisbane, QLD? That's weird. I emigrated from Brisbane to the UK 16 years ago.

  • My favourite cereal of all time has to be the Australian Nutri-Grain. I love the malty flavour and I can eat it dry, without milk. Can't get it in the UK though. :-(
