Hi! I'm 30 and just had my first baby in April :o) I'm on a slow and steady roll and determined to get back in to my pre preggy clothes by around October (The Christening!) xxx

Fabulous darlin! x

I'm from Kent! Please add me. I fell off the MFP wagon last year but now i'm back! x

I'm on the outskirts of London. Please add me if you want to :o)

Hmm strange. They are usually in city centres i think or at big shopping centres There are loads in London and i know there are some in Birmingham so i would assume they must be nation wide.. http://www.eat.co.uk/pages/food.html Hope that helps :o)

One of the worst things is when you don't have a lot to loose in comparison to other people, and when you mention that you've put on a stone (14 lbs) and you want to nip it in the bud, colleague/family/friends say "but you don't need to loose weight, i hope you don't have an eating disorder etc etc" All i want to do is…

If you're in the UK, i know that EAT do an Iced Green Tea. Haven't tried it myself. They might have the ingredients of their website under the nutrition section??

I have a Kellogs Elevenses Raisin Bake (164 cals) and i cup of black coffee. Boom! It's like a slab of cake for breakfast.. and who can argue that that's not good! :o)

LOL that's hilarious! Am afraid you can't move the thumbnail around like you can with FB. My only suggestion would be to crop the photo to just show your face using another program and upload it again and make that one your main pic. Hope this helps x

Stop moaning!! I live in England where it always rains!!!!! lol

Hi, The first time i ever went on a diet, it turned out that it was all to do with portion sizes and i lost 6 lbs in my first weeks (and i cut out alcohol) And BAM! It just dropped off. I'd say get some scales to measure everything. I know it sounds mad, but you'd be suprised when you have cereal for breakfast that most…

I know where you're coming from! I'm 5'3 and i'm fairly slim and no matter what i do, i have stupidly chunky thighs. Nothing i've ever done has changed them. Sort of starving myself, there is no way i can change their shape without being drastic. Even when i went down to 120lbs, there was no way i could ever wear short…

Fanastic news, well done! x

I am stunned.... You look fabulous sweetie! Congratualtions, and you look amazing as a pin up. That's next on my list of things to do this year! :O)

I don't think we have the shakes in the UK... but OMG! I LOVE Special K.I dream about it at night! lol

Hi there, I'm only looking to loose about 10 lbs to a stone - wedding coming up and just want to to be happy with the photos. Plus my dress is very tight so i can't get away with having a tummy which sticks out a little bit under lots of ruffles! Good luck to you! And it's great that you want to stsy in shape!

I'd just say that you have certain intolerances and just make a bunch of really obscure things up... and ask for something simple like just the rice and broccoli. Either that or just say, 'sorry - i'm not eating that, my body is a temple' Job done! No one can force you to eat it and it's nor fair on yourself to be expected…

Thanks everyone! Great tips by the way :O)

I just bought Just Dance for the Wii - I did 55 minutes of energetic dancing and got pretty hot and it burned of 250 calories. So much fun too! I do this when i get home from work if i haven't managed to get to the gym! Hope this helps! x

Thanks hun! I'll kick yours too! lol

If the naughty food isn't in the kitchen, then you can't be bad. If you have access to 7/11's and you're about to go in a buy something to snack on - Firstly ask yourself if you're actually hungry and is your stomach rumbling? Probably not if you're honest with yourself. Secondly, if you're anything like me as soon as i've…

I tend to have low fat oven meals in the evening, but i bulk them up with lots of steamed veg. You're calorie intake wont increase by that much, but you're body wont go into starvation mode because you'll be vey full! Starvation mode only happens when you don't eat very much - hence starvation! Good luck! x

Hey, Welcome, i'm new too! My wedding is in just under two months and i want to loose 14 lbs. Lets push each other and make sure we log in! x

Also, eating late at night is not good for your metabolism. You're body slows down when you are asleep and if you've been snacking or eat your evening meal within a couple of hours of going to bed, it will just sit in your stomach and obsorb all the nasty fatty bits rather then burning them off (albeit slowly) while you…

Can i just ask, why you stay up so late? If you know that you get the munchies late at night, it would make more sense to go to bed at a reasonable hour like 10pm. If you're alseep, you won't know that you're hungry. If you are going to stay up late, plan ahead and have things ready to snack on such as grapes, carrots and…

Dare accepted ladies! lol I'll be sure to keep you posted x
