Oh wow thank you for being so helpful everyone! I now how loads of ideas for things to try! Thank you all!

these sound great!

this sounds great!

Sorry I dont have much time so I'll just bullet point a few ideas that might help you! - Plan out every (healthy!) meal you are going to eat the day before. - Make a snack list of low calorie, nutritious foods that you can pick one or two from to have with a big glass of water if you get hungry. - Have a constant 'to do'…

Thanks for all your advice! Theres definitely some great tips I'll try and hopefully they'll work better than covering my feet in several layers of cotton wool and tape under 2 pairs of socks whcih is what I resorted to today haha!

Thanks for replying :) I was just interested because when I go to the gym I feel the machines give a more accurate calorie reading so just put that I did the activity for as long as it takes to burn that many cals, however I've been running outside lately with no way of keeping back so Ive been adjusting whatever MFP…

I love this idea...I'm soooo gonna try it tomorrow!!! my other idea was to try drinking a biiiiig cup of tea to fill me up and give me the feeling of putting something in my mouth every time I get the urge to binge, the only problem is this involves going down to the kitchen. And other things tend to jump out at me while…

Laura, your message hit amazingly close to home. This is something I can definietely relate too! But I always feel like I could do better if I'm not giving 100% to everything...I have a tendency to freak out about things. I just don't want to let myself down and its hard being a student nurse, having exams, 2 essays due in…

these sound divine :)

Haha I reaaaaaally wish it was right for me! I don't know what happens to the numbers sometimes...!

Thanks for replying everyone :) I've eaten horrifically the last 2 days but can hopefully even it out a bit next week or boost my metabolism a bit haha. I'm gonna have a look at the settings on MFP, although I expected to have seen some change in either my shape or scale numbers by now, even if they were slightly…

This sounds really good!

yum!

yum :)

As a complete chocolate addict, when I get desperate (like everyday lol) I mix together 1 teaspoon of flour, 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of cocoa in a mug, then pour in a little hot water so it covers whats in the cup, and stir it together until its like a thin gooey cake mix. TOTALLY does the trick for me to take…

I think its probably right, according to the weight-adjusted monitor on the ellipticals at my gym, I can burn 10 calories a min if I push myself. Surprising eh?!

I'm a student nurse and I have exactly the same problem! I usually eat something little before I go and then have a banana or something just before I start. But that still leaves ages until lunch! I'm not very imaginative but you could take fruit salad, a sandwich of some kind or cereal in a lunchbox! and and a little milk…

I'm 19 :D

Thanks guys, thats really helpful, I'll have to keep an eye out for them :)

I'm lazy, I tend to calculate the number of calories I've eaten/burned, and then input them as whatever food/exercise equals the same amount...so I'm only really looking at the net calorie amount, not all the other nutritional info. So I guess thats why I havnt lost as much as MFP tells me I should have :S but then? !

This doesnt really help with your question but do you know if egg beaters is available in the UK? I havent seen it in supermarkets here!
