Try watching Shaun of the Dead - you'll never fear Zombies again lol. Can not watch a George A Romero now without laughing my socks off. Hummed 'Don't Stop me now' all the way through The Walking Dead. Damn you Simon Pegg. Used to love Zombie films!!

Who was also in Daredevil with Colin Farrell who was also in....

Thanks paradog - the irony is that is exactly the sort of thing I would say to someone else if they posted the same as me!!

And thanks scante60 - you aren't the only one lol!! Congrats on the non-smoking too :smile:

Thanks all. I'd forgotten how much I do enjoy a bit of dark chocolate (Green & Blacks!!!) and I have some cracking comedy/drama on DVD (Mongrels, Misfits & Being Human) And early nights - yeah. I should. One of the problems with stress is staying up late so I'll be off to bed soon!! Crying - can be very cathartic. I was…

Thank you so much. This was exactly what I needed tonight.

It can be overwhelming to start with. I found it easier to change my life one bad habit at a time.- First week all I did was quit drinking. Second, Added monitoring my food and so on. I also had 'consolidation' weeks where I just stuck to sticking to the changes I'd already made. Might help to break it down into small,…

I don't do a lot of running (agrivates my knee) but I do a lot of other cardio especially Zumba. And I started this before I quit smoking. January I realised I needed to change - I was overweight and utterly, utterly unfit, smoking between 20 and 40 cigs a day & drinking far too much. I'd get out of breath climbing a…

Welcome :smile: Can take a couple of weeks to get used t logging & knowing what cals you are eating so don't get discourged!! Six months in and I still get the odd suprise!!

From the UK too :) My Eldest Son's girlfriend's mother has just had a hip replacement and after the initial post-op pain is doing much better than before. Can make a massive difference!! Welcome to MFP :smile:

You say you aren't doing weights - perhaps you could try that? It slowed my weight loss but increased my inch loss which is the important thing. Are you measuring yourself? Are you loosing inches at all? Drinking enough water? Logging everything (including tea/coffee etc)? It is suprising how much little snacks and drinks…

This is where photos help. I still think of myself as 'fat'. I get suprised when I see myself in the mirror and feel weird even looking at a (UK) size ten dress. Looking at photos lets me see how much a difference 26lb and three dress sizes can make. 60lb must be amazing. But it does help when people notice lol - a work…

Just down the M6 from you in Sunny Nuneaton. Welcome :smile: Feel free to add me:smile:

For some eating back works, for others it doesn't. I think it is worth giving it a go either way for a month or so - isn't going ot do perminant damage if it doesn''t work (as long as you're eating your minimum - around 1200 for a woman) Currently, I'm eating most of my exercise calories (I leave a margin for error). I'm…

Complicated.

I am in no way endorsing the below link as I got it off Google. http://www.explosivenutrition.co.uk/dymatize-elite-liquid-protein-25g-12-x-2oz?utm_source=google&utm_medium=base&utm_campaign=googlebase&utm_content=Dymatize+Elite+Liquid+Protein+25g+(12+x+2oz)-Tropical+Splash I've had the shot - tastes disgusting, no after…

lol - you do not want to know - Dodgy Donner Kebabs is only half the story - though probably protein packed lol.

I've tried the Dymatize Tropical punch protien shot - possibley one of the most repuslive things I have ever had in my mouth. BUT - I did feel the benefit. A lot less fatigued (went from pretty heavy weight training to Salsa) and I have to say, no nasty after taste. Pretty sure they're less than £3 a go - will try and find…

I seriously upped the weights over the last week or two and I have gained 3lb - but I have lost 5 inches over 5 areas and got my waist under that dreaded 30 inch mark. I do know it is mostly water weight (could be a little extra muscle too as I look different - expecially my shoulders - and my thighs and obliques are rock…

I gained three pounds this week. Want to know why? Because I seriously upped my weights at the gym. So my poor sore muscles are holding water to try to repair themselves. Want to know how I know it's not fat? Because I've lost a total of 5 inches from 5 locations - including 1.5 inches off my belly. Even so, I was a bit…

Become an emotional exerciser. A little healthier. The best option would be to work out why you have an emotional need to eat. Failing that, substitute a healthier reacrtion to stress.

Pretty much south of the border (Sunny Nuneaton) but welcome :)

This weekend is a bit of a mixed bag, so my goal will just be to get to train hard on Saturday and to eat as healthy as I can!! And only a slither of cake hehe. Got a Salsa party tonight - easy - no food, no alcohol (I don't drink very often anyway & I'm driving), bit of cardio lol. Tomorrow - Zumba & the gym but then…
