I'd be most glad to help you out with supportive encouragement.You're doing well already. having lost a stone shows you have the dedication to make a positive lifestyle change.You can lose the weight again. Well I'm in the exact same boat as you. I fell off the wagon spectacularly. As of beginning of April I'd gone down to…

well judging by other people's symptoms,I don't think its bloating then.must be indigestion. I need to keep a better watch on my diet and stop eating random rubbish.

welcome

So day one is over and thankfully no fizz but was sorely tempted on the bread front....so i had ice-cream instead.

Thank you...I sure will try.

To be honest I'm not sure. All I know is that you can't spot target fat deposits but fat around the middle is almost always the last to go universally. I think breast fat deposits are genetic and unfortunately i'm stuck with mine. Thighs can be shaped and moulded with appropriate toning exercises,might take some time but…

squats and lunges are the way to go.i have the opposite problem. I am top heavy,I have no hips or thighs or bum to speak of.But I'm lugging about a 32J bosom and slightly thick waist.I'm trying to get the fat off my top half.i desperately wish i had your concern with regard to hips. Good luck.

Welcome,I'm from up North too.

Well there was this one time there was only vanilla ice-cream,pickles,honey and ham. They seemed to gel together well. The deep rumblings in my belly a few hours later signifed that it was not a happy harmony. well at least it was better than Ostrich with cheese :huh: seemed like a good idea at the time :bigsmile:

I'm 5'5" and around 150 but wanting to get to about 130. It will take a lot of work,but I'll get there. Good luck with your ambition to be an actress. Anyone who wants support/offering support please feel free to add.

No I'm like that.I need really sweet lemon slices or sugary treats which are not waist friendly. Other times McD's fries are the only thing that will calm the cramps. Thats my excuse...I'm quelling the cramps like medicine :P

Alan you are not going potty...you appear determined to get this weight gain under tight rein and change your lifestyle.I am defo sure you can do this.Lots of dedication and motivation is something you already possess,seeing as how you already lost 100 pounds before. That is no easy feat,so applause to you. Now you just…

There is a thread moaning about this very thing that was started last week. It's also exam season and I either eat like food is going out of fashion or I eat roughly 80 calories per day for the duration of the exam period.It is sooooo bad for the system.I can't seem to break the habit though. I'm nearly through with my…

Hi I appear to be opposite from you.I lose on my bum,thighs and hips then my face and arms but not my middle or boobs.It's so frustrating not to lose evenly.

I will always love South Park....nothing will ever beat seeing Mr Garrison turning into a woman and thinking he's pregnant or kyles dad being a jewfin.Pure class!!!

Woo hoo for Yorks.Leeds here :) Welcome and good luck.

i tend to lose weighT VERY VERY fast when exams are upon me.I get stressed and literally stop eating fo upto 3 days apiece.I have to force myself to eat bites of apples or a quarter of a biscuit so my body doesn't go into crisis.it's not true weight loss though coz i put it all straight back on as soon as the stress is…

i weigh in every 2-3 days and then take measurements once a month or after I've lost about 12 pounds.

Hiya I've not heard of mederma.I live in England.Maybe ASDA sell it as something else? Either way I'm really hoping or something that works.I have a cream that is enriched with Vit E and it seems to be doing the trick.I've only been using it for a week and they appear so much fainter now...except the side ones.

wow well done you!! good for you.

wow that's some determination,well done.

Ok so at day 4,the good behaviour has been broken.i have fallen but it's ok,I'm weirdly not feeling guilty or ashamed like I normally would. I'm a little less stringent with myself and feel like I can do a little more exercise first thing in the morning and they'll be no need for 500 calorie days. i feel positive about my…

AH YE OLDE Bravissimo...theu are ridiculously expensive though. I found a picture pretty colourful bra and it was £60.I couldn't believe it. I was like bloody hell. Sadly they don't do 32 J's at most other cheapie places. If only high street did my size.I'd love to be a DD again.

Wow you cried over chicken wings...yes you definitely understand me to the core. Thanks for the advice and support Calliope... Today I didn't have any crisps or chocolate or naughty foods.Quite pleased about tha...one day at a time.....one day at a time.

wow I have actually finished a whole day without junk food...Ok maybe I can do this....although it wasn't a true test because I've been indoors all day.Tomorrow will be the true test.

Believe me when i say I know EXACTLY what you are talking about....in fact you can read all about my sorry debacle in my sad post above yours. I am caught in a vicious cycle of Binge eating-Guilt-severe diet- binge eating. It's just no good and will do harm to us in the long run. There is a lot of advice on this site and…

Wow all the advice is overwhelming and good. Some a little blunt,but I needed to hear it. I never thought I was a binge eater. I'm still having some trouble grasping that, but I guess I am. I do not keep a food diary and don't have a set sleep schedule either. I eat at completely unregulated hours (due to working nights…

I gain up to 4 pounds and it takes a few days after for it to drop off.

Good luck you too.You will be looking fab in no time at all.

Welcome Jaime if you need a friend just add me.
