Well Done. Congratulations. Stay on mfp so you don't put it back on.

If you want to eat like the average person (whoever that is) you will look like the average person. Look around you- are most people around you fat? Most people around me are. I don't want to look like the average person and there is no way that I could eat 2,000 calories without putting on weight.

I chop up some really juicy tomatoes to moisten the salad and I seldom use any dressing at all other than this.

I have porridge every morning with natural yoghourt on top and cinnamon. I make it in the microwave on water which allows me the extra calories for the yoghourt Sometimes my husband makes it with milk and then I don't take the yoghourt on it I think it's delicious and I look forward to it every morning. It's quite low…

Wow. That is a great achievement. Weight loss will contribute to your health and wellbeing and staying off cigarettes will also bring huge benefits. It will help your finances too so keep it up. You won't continue to lose weight so quickly so don't be discouraged if your weight loss slows down. You will get there.

I am sorry that you have suffered a miscarriage and I hope that you will soon have a healthy baby. I had a miscarriage once so I know how sad you must feel but don't blame yourself about it. The doctor was very insensitive to say to you what he did but it is true that miscarriage is very common and within 12 months of…

I am so so sorry that you are going through this. Don't hold in the tears. Let them flow. It will do you good. I know that I'd love my daughter to bits no matter what her sexual orientation but some people are slower to accept difference than others and it may take your mom some time more to come around. Although her…

Hi I have this problem and the only way I can deal with it is to not eat sugary stuff at all. I avoid all confectionery because I can't handle it. I take it one day at a time as I think alcoholics do that and I constantly remind myself that I am "powerless over sugar" as the alcoholics probably do re alcohol. I am not an…

I told my co-worker ( who is very fat and constantly eating chocolate bars) that I have high cholesterol (not really true- maybe a tiny bit high) and that my father died of heart disease aged 50 and she doesn't try to tempt me so much now. She still occasionally wants me to have a chocolate bar but I never ever have one so…

Strap your toddler in the stroller ignoring his/her protests and walk for half an hour or more as fast as you can on the beautiful walk you mentioned. He/she can put up with their dislike of the stroller for a half hour and the results for you will be great- go for it- you are doing well and your toddler will benefit from…

Absolutely not- it is too discouraging and not good I think for mental health and overall wellbeing. Once a week at the same time is enough and once a fortnight or once a month is probably better.

You need never ever ever see that amount on the scales again if you use this site. Take heart from that.

Coffee has almost no calories so you won't lose weight by quitting it although you may gain other benefits. I quit taking milk in it and I have never drank it with sugar. After about 3 days of drinking it without anything added I couldn't go back to having it with milk. It's delicious black when you get used to it and it…

You have lost 40 lobs! That is very good. Well done. You must be doing something right so keep it up and keep posting because your progress is interesting

Congratulations. Well done. You look great. You have a beautiful face.

What sometimes works for me, and I know it wouldn't work for everyone as it depends on the size of the party etc, is take the dessert, slice of cake etc on to my plate, mess with it a bit when everyone is talking, surreptitiously put it into my paper napkin ((can't be done is one is served with a real napkin) and put it in…

Wow!! Maith thú. Gorgeous baby

I have lived with my husband for more than 30 years and we have never ever been in the bathroom at the same time as each other. We take turns. I would try never to fart around anyone if I could help it. Are there not some things that should be kept private? Or am i just very oldfashioned and prudish?
-
You can do it but you have to acknowledge that it won't be easy. Nothing worthwhile is ever easy. I would suggest that you take it one day at a time ( I think that is what alcoholics do) and only weigh yourself once every two weeks at the same time naked before breakfast. If you weigh in very often you might get…

I think it is almost impossible to get totally rid of hot flashes no matter what one tries but I did have some success anda lot of relief with a product called Olivia's Secret which is distributed by a company in California. If you google it you will be able to find it. It's a capsule and it is not in the least bit…

Yes you probably are being old fashioned but in my opinion you are being old fashioned in a good way and there is nothing wrong with being old fashioned sometimes. I am not an old fashioned person in general. In fact I am very liberal but not when it comes to children and their rights. No matter how one dresses it up…

Congratulations. I look forward to reading your post on March 12th 2013. Keep up the good work.

If you can't afford an expensive bra wear two cheap ones- it really works- that what I do. You don't have to be able to afford a gym- fast walking or jogging or running is very effective. Keep at it. It will be worth it.

Don't worry- he will adore you- especially if you are the mother of his new healthy son or daughter

When I go to an Indian restaurant I always order something "Rogan Josh" as it is a tomato based sauce and I never ever order fried rice- I order boiled rice and I don't eat it all. Enjoy your meal and your parents' company.

Hi. I stopped drinking beer the day I joined this site a few weeks ago and believe it or not I don't miss it at all. When my husband is having a few beers I have a couple of vodkas with soda or a diet drink instead. I save many calories in this manner. I know that spirites are not good for the liver but I don't drink that…

I am so sorry to hear that you lost your dear mom and I'm glad that you have something happy to look forward to next May, your daughter's wedding. Please please do not lose this excess weight for a wedding- if you lose it for a wedding it will go straight back on when the wedding is over. Please lose it for you. Don't get…

Your poor insecure husband- he must have been jealous!!

My advice for what it's worth is never ever ever eat chocolate. If you don't eat it at all the cravings will go away, I promise. I know that the other posters who advise you to eat a little bit are acting in good faith telling you what works for them but there are some of us for whom that does not work- a little bit sets…

Please don't call yourself a pig. You are a person with overeating problems as are many of the people on this site. You are dealing with those problems as best you can by joining the site. Calling yourself insulting names won't help you deal with overeating. Best of luck.
