  • I hope this post is a joke.....
  • Oh and I totally get being intimidated by the whole vegwtarian thing, its confusing & people can be really full on! A great way to start is to have one meat free day a week and then as you get use to it, slowly increase the number of days, much easier to achieve a a few meat free days per week means you still get the…
  • Woops I didnt mean to start anything! Sorry! =/ I would probably go to a dietician/nutritionist if I were you, it sounds like your mum has very specific dietary needs & they would be abke to help her specifically, rather than the general info that is usually on the net. Good luck with it all!
  • I agree with above that you should be looking at WHAT your eating. Are your calories coming from good quality, nutrient dense foods? Also mixing up exercise is a great metabolism kick starter, if you've always done running, do a spin class. If youve always done cardio classes, try a pump class, or weights etc etc just keep…
  • I definately count ALL calories, including vegies!

  • Ummm well for starters fish is meat! So thats not vegetarian lol But besides that it ill be pretty tough not being able to eat beans & nuts, but tofu is always an option, as well as 'fake meat' products such as quorn although they can be sneaky with sodium! Also yoghurt, milk & cheese just watch your portion sizes & make…
  • I wish crap 'fuel' didnt taste so good :(
  • You need to make your diary open to the public for us to be able to see if your eating enough! I think you can do it through settings.
  • I had a look at your food diary & it looks like your eating a reasonable & healthy amount of food. As long as you continue to lose weight & dont feel like the way you are eatig is unsustanable, then you should contine to do exactly what your doing. 6lbs is awsome! You will probably find that the more weight you loser, the…
  • Awsome! Congrats to you! I've been trying to explain that to my Mum for years! She just doesnt get how exercise can be a habit!
  • I started taking Zoloft literally this morning! have been worried about the same thing, but Im just gonna keep tracking my food intake, exercising reguarly & hope for the best! Good luck to you!
  • Hahaha love it! Pretty much what everyone else has said! The biggest thing is to realise that yes you are gonna stuff up, have bad days and whatever, you just gotta hang in there and keep trying!
  • Wow I was NOT expecting so many people to reply! Thankyou so much for taking the time to write back, I can't believe how much better I'm feeling after reading all your responses! It really does seem to help knowing that other people understand & have been through the same thing or know someone who has. I'm taking the…

  • Its so hard to watch somebody you love kill themselves with food & not be able to convice them to make any better choices for themselves. At best you can keep encouraging her to try harder, or sit her down & explain why you are so worried. or maybe even write her a letter talking about all of your concerns with her weight.…
  • Nice! Now I feel sorry for Wednesday!
  • Dermalogica - Medibac wipes. Best ever for straight after a workout plus the dont have any of those nasty ingredients that strip your skin like moist wet wipes do!
  • Welcome to MFP! I hope you get all the support & advice you need on here!
  • Obviously someones made you angry!! =D Well said though! Ive been lucky enough to see nothing but support on here so go MFP *Throws pom poms around* hopefully my good luck continues....
  • How rude of that lady!! I took my little cousin shopping once and he said something similar so I made the little **** apologise to her! As it turns out, we got chatting and she is one of my closest friends now! Just ignore the kids and rock that 10-lb-lost-tshirt... Youve earned it!
  • Definately has some good points! Thanks for sharing!
  • I totally agree with this! As a beauty therapist I see some pretty random things with makeup, but one thing I always notice is that the more makeup someone is wearing, the less confident they usually are in themselves. Makeup is an extremely individual thing.... And personally I reckon that I rock my blush like any pale…
  • Sounds like you have had one hell if a day!! I hope it gets alot better for you however ihave no solutions for the binge eating side of things, will be interesting to see what other mfpers have to say
  • Go for a run/walk/swim etc. By the end of that the craving should be gone or at least it will help keep you motivated to eat better for the rest of the day!

  • I confess that I just teared up in the first part of Obamas speech to announce the death of Osama Bin Laden. High five America!
  • Bump! My protein amount keeps increasing but Its still not at the levels I would like.
  • Vaseline. Lots of vaseline. That's what I use for 5km runs. Or I wear 3/4 length leggings which yes they do get hot to run in but I like that! I have a friend who uses that burns bandage stuff. Its like a big clear plastic bandaid, acts like a second skin, and shes into doing 10-15km runs, and all of her weight is carried…
  • Totally agree with this!!
