  • Thanks for that - all helps my little brain get to grips with this! :happy:
  • Ok - thanks! When i set up my MFP account i didn't include any exercise goals, so i could ease myself in so i might go back and alter that to an average of what i've been doing (mix of walking, areobics, and kettlebells). I'm sure it will all make sense to me one day!
  • Is there a reason for not eating back calories from cardio exercise? Sorry if this seems a stupid question but quite new to MFP and trying to work out best approach for me - to date i've not been eating back exercise calories and have lost 19lbs (with still loads to go) on a 1540 day allowance. Any advice appreciated.…
  • Sunny central scotland here - would love some new friends to help motivate me! Feel free to add me!
  • I've tried the Chicken Korma and Lamb, Spinach &Potato curry and they were really nice - in fact it's korma for dinner tonight! Also tried the granola bars, personally they were a bit sweet for me and i really didn't like the texture - but that's just me so don't let it put you off trying them as the fruit and coconut…
  • I love it in chinese style egg fried rice! Cook the rice and allow it to go cold - then stirfry some beaten eggs, and put to the side. The stirfry mushrooms, spring onions and rice - add dash of soy, then re add eggs. Finish with small amount of sesame oil! Calorie count depends on quantaties used, but is really filling -…

  • Spicy sweet potato and coconut soup! Yum
  • I've lost 14lbs, but more importantly 8.5 cm off my waist!!!! Think i'm going to stick with the measuring as my success tool as the scales can be offputting! I'm so happy!
  • Smoked spicy paprika - yum!
  • I blend low fat cottage cheese with eggs and use it to make crustless quiche - add whatever flavours you like! Gives a good creamy cheese flavour without adding all the fat!
  • Hi, I live in the UK - Argos had special offer of 6 dvd's, kettlebell and nutrition cd for £50, but i know you can get a larger set online for arounf £100! I opted for the smaller set to see how i got on doing the exercises!
  • I've just bought the dvd's and done my first workout this morning - i'm already feeling it in my legs, so think tomorrow might be a bit sore lol I got a 5lb weight with the set so i'll see how i get on - hoping that as its only 20 mins x3 a week i'll stick at it! Good luck!
  • I love kale and recently made it in to chinese style "crispy seaweed". Place the kale on a baking tray in a hot oven and mix around every 5 minutes until it dries out and goes crispy - watch it carefully as it can burn really quickly! Once crisp, but still warm, put in a bowl and sprinkle over 1 tsp brown sugar and 1tsp…
