Thanks everyone for your feedback! @insanitylater: My activity level is set to lightly active already :) @Erikalynne18: The cafe is work at focuses on healthy food and I'm the one preparing most of it so I know what goes in and I make my meals extra healthy. Though I do indeed need to be more consistent in what I eat. I…

Weird you think that, because most of my food is fresh fruit and veggies, I dont use much packaged food at all.... though sometimes I log something that is similar to what I eat because I cannot find it on here... I am definitly trying to lower my sodium intake, yesterday was a very bad day for that. I get my excersise…

I have changed my privacy settings to public, so you should be able to see it. I dont see them as excuses, I am simply explaining what my current situation is. Eventhough I am not feeling motivated I still do my excersises, an excuse would mean that I dont do my excersise...

Thanks for the feedback guys. Glad to see Im not the only one lol

All those recipes sound yummy!

Youtube could be a great help in learning how to cook some simple dishes. Also you might want to get a few cookbooks if you havent got many yet. I love cooking and love using fresh products when I can. You can always email me for tips. Just send me an ingredient list and I will think of something yummy you can make! :) I…

I have a cheat meal atleast once a week. I cannot expect my partner to be on a diet just because I am. So we made a deal: once a week we will eat pizza or other bad foods, he loves it and it helps keep him sane. And ofcourse I love it to! Though I do portion those meals, for example I will only eat half of what he eats.…

I have tried to increase my water intake a lot the past few days. I havent noticed any majoy differences yet but I'm not expecting to notice anything until I keep this up on a regular basis. Thanks for all your input guys!

I started today, acctually just finished day 1 like 2 minutes ago lol. Good luck everyone!

Very interesting article! I ejoyed reading it :)

Thanks very much guys, I really appreciate all your feedback!

Yeah I got similar 'symptoms' Did you lose weight when you started drinking more water?

I often have been in this situation. What I do is I find something in the database that is similar to it, and I can estimate in my head if it is about right or not. For example I had a sandwich for lunch today at a cafe. No idea what they put on it but in the database I found a 'generic' sandwich for around 500 calories…

Thanks guys, I already thought it was weird how people seem to think even fruit sugars are bad.

I'd love to know the anwser to this as well. Bump

Sorry, I wouldnt have a clue. But I'll give this a bump for ya ;)

We try and grow all kinds of stuff, we love experimenting with all typoes of veggies in our garden. We used to have a huge variaty of things, now the weather is changing most things have finished growing, and birds were destroying everything so we had to get rid of most, but we will plant it all again next season for sure!…

Today I tried a new one: - vanilla yoghurt - orange juice - 2 small kiwi fruits - 1 apple I dont use measurement, I just fill up my blender until It wont fit anymore goodness haha. But I think the kiwi's wernt ripe yet as the smootie was terribly sour. but I did drink it all as I need the vitamins :)

Try the mini bags of popcorn, you put them in the microwave, their done within 2 minutes and smell amazing, and you got plenty for only 150 cals (depending on flavor) I love them when my partner is having a bag of chips I happily munch on these instead

I try and do the same at home as we have got an elliptical trainer at home :)

They sound very yummy guys, thanks for all the amazing recipes!

yummy

Yay, I'm from Holland, finally someone who agrees that not every sandwich needs mayo and mustard, how ever is can be yummy lol

Thanks for all the yummy recipes guys!

Yummy, I love pineapple, but I cant stad mango... Will try and replace that with maybe something else?

Interesting.... Might give that a go to! What are flex seeds for again?

Yummy I'm going to try that one! My Magic Bullet is only small and wont fit in that much, but I'm sure I can play around with the quantities. I have got a recipe myself that only comes to 150 cals per serving (banana, blueberries, light milk, and ice cubes) And seeing as the sugar in it is fruit/natural I dont look at that…

Try the Kellog's cereal bars. They are only 100 calories per bar and taste like caramel or berries! I adore them and have them in my house. I try not to eat to many because I find it hard to stop at 1. But when my craving for sweets becomes unbearable I rather dig into those then a normal chocolate bar! Also Belvita…

For me taste is very important because I use the smooties to replace my snacks with so if they dont taste amazing then I will go snacking 5 minutes later :( But besides the spinach and broccoli that sounds yummy :)

Love the sound of this one! Though I dont like plain yoghurt so I might just add my vanilla yoghurt instead, and ofcourse then I would not add any extra vanilla. Thanks!
