I fell of the wagon many times. but am back on it now. I have 117 pounds to lose. calories in vs calories out for me. im doing it slowly this time, and the correct way... 1660 calories a day. i would be happy to make some friends on there..

I remember reading that .your body will only use what protein it needs and the rest your body dumps via urine.

Its only for 2 1/2 days a week.. just part time job i have..

if he does not accept you at your worst then he does not deserve you at your best. onward's and upwards girl. chin up you deserve so much more. its his loss really.

ok lets change the perspective here. perhaps deep down hes worried you wil get all slim and leave him. for a hunky gym guy.

this is such an uplifting story. ha.

you can do it.. i have lost 19lb in a month and 2 days. by simply cutting out the junk food and going low carb. im also going the gym 5 days a week.. i believe you really can do this.

hi and welcome.. i hope you enjoy it here.

i love eggs. scrambled eggs. i have 3 daily

just like to say a big thank you. made my calories so easy today. peanut butter sandwich's x 2 = 800 calories

thanks..will get some peanut butter tomorrow as its a constant struggle to hit 2000

1st off. good luck for tomorrow. muscle does weigh more than fat. but you cannot turn fat to muscle. building muscle helps burn more fat though. cardio burns more calories. weight lifting to burn body fat. as for diets just cut out sugars and processed foods. eat loads of veg's and animal meat/fat chicken turkey etc. no…

hey martin. my names chris. i used to live in coventry. my story is very much the same as yours. but im now 35, a month ago i was 19 stone and now im down to 17.11 with a bmi of 40.. you really need to do this for your self and not to please others. im guessing that deep down you are unhappy wirth yourself but burring your…

well half way through reading some of these posts i decided to raise my calories to 2k. and i have gone +2lb this morning :( feels like i can never have a treat or something slightly fatty without putting a dam stone on. sad panda this morning. im hoping its just water weight. i was at the gym yesterday also.

no i mean im losing. around 1lb every 2 days. not gaining

thankyou very much.. i guess it is a good rate of loss.. i just was expecting a little too much... and no i have not been hungry 1 bit eating 15-1700 cals. any more i feel like im eating for the sake of eating just to up calories..

ok i will up my calories for a while and see how this sits.. thankyou for all replys

i started dec 28th 2012.. no i dont work weird hours.. im on a diet where i go without food for 19 hours (most of this is sleeping) and then eat within a 5 hour window. this is the caveman diet/intermittent fasting..

shameless bump.

hi im in N.ireland and in sports direct they sell.. Lonsdale Pro Bar 30 Protein Food Bars - Strawberry and Cream i think they are very good for the price £1 each

go for it.. they should accept you for you... its not all about looks. at least its not for me.

i had the same thing.. however i know i lost weight as i had to make new holes in my belt.. keep at it. you will gain a lot of muscle at the start so don't just go off the scales. you are right on track.. weigh in time is best done in the morning after your first wee.

your body will only take what protein it can, and the rest you will urinate out. broccoli. is amazing i make sure im getting this daily...

this topic made me smile.. yesterday i managed to get my wedding ring back on after a long time and it now spins on my finger nicely....

i use Optimum Health Ultimate Whey Protein 2.25kg £26 75 servings. i got the choc flavor but i am told strawberry is the best. Per 30g when mixed with water: Energy: 121kcal / 505kJ Protein: 21.3g Carbohydrates: 4.7g of which sugars: 4.1g Fat: 1.9g of which saturates: 1.7g Fibre: 0.1g Sodium: Trace
