essjay76 - Can I come live with you? :happy:

Haha - I may considering dyeing as you have asked so nicely.

Just end it. You know yourself this relationship is not going anywhere & not giving you what you need emotionally or sexually. It's better being on your own than being in a bad relationship & while you are with the BF you are not opening yourself up to meeting anyone new. Just get out there & try enjoying yourself with…

I was in a pub & drunken old bloke (well probably middle aged but I was in my twenties so he looked pretty old to me) came up & asked me why I was wearing a silver brooch in shape of a ballerina, I replied because it was a present & he said well it's not as though you look like a ballerina is it - looking me up & down…

I can so relate to this. I have lost 18 lbs which is great but I am still 4 lbs above what I was when I last decided to lose some weight (after struggling to do up the seat belt on a plane) and 24 lbs above what I was the time before that when I lost weight. Each time I have lost I put it all back on & then some. This time…

I used to be 5ft 7" but I have shrunk to 5ft 6" (probably due to being so heavy for so long that & possibly my age. I really miss that extra inch. A lady in the supermarket the other day saw me struggling to reach for something on the top shelf & kindly got it for me & I thought "that used to be me" Anyway as I have a long…

Late breakfast (brunch) - 1/2 grapefruit, french toast made with 2 eggs & rye bread, fried with 2 tomatoes & chestnut mushrooms & big mug of milky coffee - yum.

Wow - this is inspirational, well done. You look beautiful.

Also meant to say, I used to find long walks & drinking lots of water helped. When I was really active on a regular basis I noticed that all the usual symptoms used to be lessened, bloating & craving etc. I only just remembered this - as I said it has been a while.

Thankfully I have passed the stage of the "time of month" (one of the few benefits of getting older) but I well remember wanting to eat chocolate & comfort eat more than usual at that time. If you really cannot resist then you have to accept that you will eat more for a few days a month & try & be prepared by not having…

Wow, this is so inspiring especially as you have just had a baby as well. I have 100lbs to lose to get me at the higher end of the healthy spectrum and it seems so much that I sometimes wonder if I will be able to persevere, but reading your post really helps me to believe it can be done. Well done.

The thought of not eating the whole egg & throwing away the best bit - e.g. the yolk seems sacrilege to me, I say eat away - but if you are worried about fried eggs being a bit high on fat, you could always try poached in water or my favourite, scrambled. I eat about 4 or 5 a week & despite being v.overweight my…

You poor thing, you are having a rough time of it. Four animals in 4 months is a lot of loss for one family to bear. I really hope that your daughter's horse does not have to be put down. I know we are supposed to try & keep focused on our diets/eating plans but sometimes life does get in the way. I would just say that if…

Hello Mrs Mizart & welcome I too am fifty (late fifties) & fat - in fact much fatter than you - you lightweight! I have lots more to lose than you & and I don't have the excuse of having all the injuries you have - I am just a lazy sod. Sounds like you are already eating healthily & I agree with others about swimming &…
