Jeez, you carry that 199 VERY well! You look fantastic

Sweet Jesus you have done amazingly well! A total transformation, good work :)

Hi, I'm newish too, I'll add you :)

There's a part 2! Pleased.

I'm so sad I wasn't here for the first 17 pages :(

I'm here for round 2! This HAS to be it for me. Finding things a little easier now I'm not trying to stick to a crazy low calorie target Sent a request :)

I could do with some more friends on here too, feel free to add me :)

Wow! You look fantastic! :)

I'm not saying anything that others haven't said before but WOW! That is absolutely incredible. You look fantastic and must be so proud of yourself. Well done!

They are a vegetable but not classed as 1 of your 5 a day. They're seen as a starch rather than a 'clean' vegetable. This is what the government promote anyway

I use psyllium husk to thicken mine up. Keeps me fuller for longer too. I like the avocado idea....might give that a go

Wow, that's impressive! You look wonderful :) I'll go take a look at your blog...

You look gorgeous!!! You must feel so proud of yourself. Well done :)

Couldn't agree more.

That's pretty shocking! In your case I see your father was responsible but I believe that Adam Lanza's mother used to take him shooting? She knew him better than anyone and she put a gun in his hand. And not any weapon but a semi automatic assault rifle. Nobody needs a gun like that.

I haven't previously made comment about this situation but I am very surprised at the reaction I must say. You're right, mental health needs to be taken seriously and families like this need support. 100% agree. What I don't agree with is putting a gun in the hands of someone with known mental health issues and showing…

My god you look amazing!! Well done :)

I currently see a trainer twice a week and he is awesome. He's completely encouraging, keeps in contact during the week to see how I'm going. I wanted to lose weight and get stronger and his advice so far has been great. He works me hard and more importantly he shows me how to do everything properly. He also advises me on…

I would say that is the most likely outcome!

Electronic cigarette helped me to quit too. I used it for about a month or so and I was done. Haven't had one since. I guess it depends on the person but I would recommend these.

She got on the scales!! She weighed in at more than when we started so I have a feeling she's going to give up. I told her it wasn't the end of the world and it was great she got on the scale because now she knows where she's at and what she has to do. I'll leave it at that though and won't talk about it anymore. I will…

I will be nice.... :) I have to agree. I think getting right in next to someone when there are plenty of machines available is poor etiquette. Like walking into a near empty cinema and sitting next to the only couple in there.

I'm aiming for 80! Anyone is free to add me :)

Anyone is free to add me! I'm on here all the time :) Seriously I should spend more time working but I can't pull myself away.....

Friended :)

You don't have to date anyone overweight but why would you want to say that to them? If someone messaged you back to say they didn't want to speak to you because they found you to be unnatractive would you think that was ok? I wouldn't. I would think it was unecessary. Either ignore them or say you don't think the two of…

I just started seeing a personal trainer and assumed he would have me doing a ton of cardio but NO. He's very big on strength training and that's all we do when we're together. He said that people vastly underestimate the importance of it and how effective it is. The inches are coming off and I'm growing to love it!

@atjays Indeed which is why I'm quite mindful about her feelings and honestly I haven't nagged her. Just a couple of gentle nudges but I've no doubt that it FELT like nagging to her. I'll be nice

You mean that's not 'working out?!?! :) Damn it! She was doing really well at the gym too. Again, better than me at first! I'll ask her and then just get on with it myself. There are some great motivational people on here. It's a brilliant tool.

***Sorry, but this about the 5th post I've come across in the past few days similar to this (where the OP doesn't know how to broach a subject). Have we forgotten how to talk to people?** Thanks so much for your helpful response! No 'we' have not forgotten but sometimes its helpful to have anothers view on the situation.…
