Always happy to help :) WIll add you now x

I don't think there's anything wrong with it :) Look at it this way.....it's a waste of food as well as money if you're not going to eat a whole adult portion! Do whatever you want to do, don't worry about what anyone else thinks :)

This will be an unpopular opinion but maybe eat a lil bit of chocolate? It'll release some endorphins and make you feel better. Are you feeling this way everyday? x

Do not eliminate your little treats! If you're anything like a lot of us on here, if you completely deprive yourself of food you enjoy then you will be more likely to slip up in a big way. There's absolutely nothing wrong with a little bit of chocolate. Everything in moderation is a motto I think everyone should live by :)…

You're not being unreasonable at all. Have you had a chat with him about it and told him how much hard work it is just to do your own as well as his? At the end of the day if he doesn't want to do it for himself then he won't stick to it anyway. What are his reasons for doing it? You shouldn't have to do all the hard work…

Open Diary friend here :) Will add you now! x

I started with focusing mainly on my eating habits and I'm a dog sitter/walker anyway so I was and still am walking almost every day. I have been for the odd swim since I started in the new year but apart from that and the walking that's all I've been doing so far. I'm planning to start the 30 Day Shred very soon though…

I would also like to know the answer to this question as I did exactly the same thing today and got three completely different answers!

Thank you, going to check this website out now :)

Great advice, thank you. Your salads sound yummy! Going to add you now :)

Great! Thank you, this is an option I definitely need to explore!

And this is why I love MFP. Loads of great people with great suggestions! Thank you :) Another one of my problems is that my job is as a house sitter which means I'm constantly in other peoples houses and a different house every week! Another reason why I eat conveniently, but I need to stop making excuses. I won't get…

Tuna and peanut butter.......love these ideas! :) Thank you x

When I use the MFP BMR calculator I'm given a figure of 1,644. That's with MFP knowing my current weight and my goal weight! Most other calculators give me a figure about 100 more than that.

I HATE bananas! Hahaha Thank you though. I like the eggs idea :) Eggs are a winning idea I think! :)

It does indeed :) It does a lot of different exercises as well as walking so I'm sure it could help :) I've also heard that FitBit is great too but haven't really looked into it myself x

Thanks lauren3101. I desperately need to change my convenience eating. It's a work in progress for me! Thank you for the suggestions. I will definitely try to incorporate eggs into my diet more. I really don't like cooking which is mostly to blame for my 'convenient' diet but I definitely know that it's something I need to…

Thank you. I've noticed looking at other peoples diaries that my breakfast is minimal compared to a lot of others. I'm definitely going to eat a bigger breakfast and eggs are a great idea! Many thanks!

No, I set my exercise as minimal because I know that TDEE takes into account your exercise when recommending calories eaten per day and I still want to log my exercise using my fitness pal. So if I had said light activity and was still logging and eating my exercise calories from the other app I use I would have been…

Apologies, didn't realise it was set to friends only. Diary now open! Current weight = 215lbs Height = 60 inches or 5 feet Ideal weight = 130lbs x

What kind of exercise do you like to do? I use Endomondo for the walks I do. It takes into account all your vitals and calculates calories burned based on how long you walk for, how fast you walk and whether you walk up or down hill :)

Thanks everyone, some yummy ideas here that I look forward to incorporating into my diet! :) Bring on the peanut butter!!! :D

Great, thanks peeps :) I love yoghurt, nuts and milk so win win! :)

Thank you for this :) I've downloaded the spreadsheet and am going to give this a go as of Monday and see what happens! x

Woweeeee! I can't wait for my DVD to arrive so I can crack on with this :)

Welcome!!! Hope this works for you and good luck :)

About to send a request!! :)

I'm from the UK! :)

Always great to have new friends! Request is on it's way :)

YAY! I do MFP as well as Weight Watchers too! Would be interested to find out how you think they compare :)
