I've been like that for a few years now and when I spoke to my doc I got told don't worry not every woman is the same, So different doc now and going for a scan!! If your really worried go to your doc explain and they'll prob do some blood tests etc. Congrats on your weight loss!!

The ones on my arms and thighs never really bothered me coz you couldn't really see them but a few months ago they appeared on my tummy!! :cry: but these ones are a reddish/purple colour. All I am hoping is that when I lose the weight off my tummy they won't be as visible!!

......

I thought it was brilliant! It had me in tears!! :') but happy tears Ploogy

Thanks for all the advice! :smile:

Thanks for all the advice! :smile:

I don't eat McD's, BK or KFC's I might share (which is prob worse) a chow mein, or kebab but that's only if I don't feel like cooking which is very rare. My local shop don't sell the bread I eat which is Hovis Wheatgerm so then I tend to buy white bread and that's a big baddy for me as I can't eat just one piece.

I haven't eliminated everything I think that's the problem. I've chucked out chocolate and crisps but allowing myself a biscuit here and there or share a cake. I've done this before and it went brilliantly for 5-6 years then I moved closer to family and that's when my weight shot up and the struggle started.

Hey! From South Wales! Feel free to add!!

It's depressing!!

OMG!! I didn't realise how big I was!!! :cry: :sad: I shouldn't have looked at that the way I'm feeling :frown:

That's the reason he keeps the weight off, cos he moves around all day. My parents were exactly the same

I care for this person but you got a point

It's hard though when living in the same house with someone who is hungry when you aren't and most the time they won't eat unless you do :frown: then it feels like a guilt trip!

If it's genetics then I should be like a twig! Both my parents were thin and my Mother had no trouble eating what she wanted and keeping the weight off.

Best of luck with your goals!!

I was naturally thin I was younger. I never really liked eating if that makes sense, and I was a healthy child. The only time I really used to enjoy eating is when my Mother would make the main evening meal, otherwise I didn't want anything. My Dad always said 'breakfast is the most important meal of the day' and I hated…

I just had 2 chicken drumsticks and a piece of bread. I didn't really want it but something would have been said if I hadn't :frown:

White bread in my case! So I now only allow myself wholemeal

Battenberg :frown: I love marzipan! Some was bought last night and I swore I would have 1 piece and then too late I had eaten my share! :sad: So I've banned myself from eating any type of cake

I'm starting to think I should have just gone with normal beef steaks! I don't eat meat that often, unless you include chicken, so would it make a difference to my diet? Or should I rethink my foods through?

Thank you that helps alot. Didn't realise there would be so many calories! :cry:

Mine are about 17" I HATE them :sad: especially when it comes to wearing knee high boots. I can never find any to fit me so I have to put up with wearing ankle boots all the time, or even wearing shorts or a skirt. I always try to cover myself up in the summer :sad: I hate myself for putting on so much weight! :sad:

I do understand what preventatives do and the triptans. Like I said they help not stop the migraines. But if nothing can stop them then I would rather have a migraine every once in a while rather than suffer 'everyday' like I was suffering before the meds.

WOW!! Congratulations!! You look great :smile:

Well done!! You look fab!! :smile:

That's superb!! Great work!!:smile:

I know what your going through. I've been suffering with migraines since my early teens basically I can get an attack at any time but any bit of stress, bright light, tap on the head etc brings them on and they are crippling! Even watching tele can bring one on, I sometimes even walk around the house with my darkest…

HAHA! ET voice, I actually heard that in my head! I like a good giggle :) Welcome Request sent

Wow! That makes me feel quite upset :cry: because now I feel quite selfish. A few weeks ago my Mother wanted me to have a professional shoot done and I refused as I don't like my picture being taken and the fat thing also. But now it makes me want to think about having the pictures done just to make her happy :cry:
