He's recently given up smoking so maybe they are a substitute for *kitten*?!? As they say ' you can only lead a horse to water, you can't make it drink'. I will pass on all the…

soy nuts/soy beans, tofu, tempeh, seiten, France is very much a meat eating country and I've never seen those products here. I do all the cooking, and try to give him a varity of vegetables, beans, pulses and fruit, but it's very difficult as all he wants to eat are his nuts! I had to go out yesterday so left plenty of…

Yeah it happened to me too!! I damaged my spine about 8 years ago and have gradually shrunk since then. I was 5'4" before the accident and had shrunk down to 5'2" before I joined MFP. however since joining MFP in November 2012, I have grown 2" and am back to normal!! I put this down to the type of exercise I do, and the…

Thankyou that's very helpful!! :-) No I am in no pain with it at all - it's just noisy!! I will research on the internet for supplements and suitable exercises. All your answers have been very helpful and reassuring, thankyou very much!! :flowerforyou:

I just get all the daily free information emails that's all. It's still quite informative but it's free!! :-)

hi add me if you like, I'm 5'4" and 254lbs :-)

when I was little and there was a thunderstorm, my grandma told me that the noise of thunder was clouds bumping into each other, whilst mice ran up and down stairs inside them with clogs on, and that rain was god crying!! when my children were little, whenever the PIR of the alarm lit up red in the corner of the room, I…

i'm currently working on two projects:- *1 I'm knitting two cushion covers for my living room settee in a teal colour, I'm doing a knit 4, purl 4 checkerboard pattern and i'll finish it off with a toggle button. *2 I'm crocheting granny squares to make a cushion cover for my diningroom settee, alternating mint and lilac…

I've had pain with my gallstones on and off for 7 years now!! They where first diagnosed after I developed pancreatitus-long story but ended up in hospital on a drip for a week and almost died :-( Thankfully the pancreatitus never came back, but from time to time I have attacks with my gallstones, the one trigger I've…

quavers, skips or ww crisps are low in cals mini snack bars like small 2 finger kitkats, a curly wurly is only 115cal (i think), satsumas are good for peeling and munching on whilst watching tv popcorn frozen grapes? if i fancy something crunchy i do a big bowl of chopped up apple, carrots, celery etc and whilst my hubby…

I'd be really chuffed with a 1kg loss this week as out on saturday night to first xmas party of the season! Gonna cut back leading up to it, and be sure to write down everything I eat and do - it's the only way!

stick with it superwoman143 - you have a very good positive outlook on life - you'll go far! :-)

lost 2kg woopee woopee do!!!!! yeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhh!!! I feel right chuffed with myself as everytime I start any diet I always gain or stay the same in week two - then I give up. Not now though, oh no no no. a long road still ahead to go but as for my NYE challenge I'm now 7lb only 8 to go :-)

have you tried wraps as an alternative to bread? i have them sometimes when I'm going to be away from home at lunchtime, filled with chicken/tuna/ham etc plus salad, very filling. also cold pasta salad with chopped tomatoes,onions, chopped chicken breast, veg etc or even hummus and veg sticks?

Hi there I'm 43 but feel more like 30! since joining this site a couple of weeks ago I feel like I'm getting my energy and lust for life back - wayhay! I've got a long, long way to go, but the weight didn't just 'appear' overnight, it's taken me years to achieve this 'physique' :-) Just in the short time I've belonged to…

I like to listen to SCOOTER - the beat is fantastic, and works well when I'm on my elliptical trainer, especially 'Jumpin all over the world' It's really good music to sing along to and makes me aim to do that little bit more just to finish a song - if you know what I mean?

second marriage - met through lonely hearts ad in paper, knew from first date (pub and a trip round the local pet shop), met his kids on second date, he met mine on third. moved in after 6 weeks, married after 6 months - 12 years later - no regrets!! had a 'bridget jones' moment couple of weeks ago when he told me he loved…

Oh, and for the politely refusing, my friends all know I am dieting, but I sometimes go with the "oh man, i am so full! that was absolutely delicious" routine ;) INGENIOUS!!! I LIKE THAT ONE - THANKYOU:smile:

Thankyou that sounds like some good advice. I'll just say my gall stones are playing up and then the rest is down to me and my willpower.

Hi everyone, I'm new to myfitnesspal and only joined this week! I live in France and am 43 years old - ooh arr!!!!
