Mine lasted about 5 weeks, then I upped my exercise and ate the exercise calories and started losing again. I know it's frustrating but don't give up!

congratulations, you must be thrilled! :flowerforyou:

Haven't seen these topics posted in a while and I love getting new ideas from people so I figured i would start the topic today. I had 1/2 cup oatmeal made with 1 cup 0.5% milk Around 260 cals

It's amazing how much you can eat if you choose the right foods!

:drinker: congratulations, keep up the good work!

I do know that I guess it's just so hard when it is someone that you care about and you want to help them. I guess i've given her the facts and I will just have to let her find out on her own and i'll just be here if she wants advice. Everyone on MFP has given me such good advice and I just wish that she would be able to…

i just don't think she gets it, i've treid to explain that she will ruin her metabolism and stuff and this was her response "I will be fiiiine! .... And do my excerise videos! I just feel so determined today and i feel not hungry aswell lol i am going to be realllllllllllllllllly thin!!!" I just think it's a dangerous…

This is what a friend just wrote to me in an email "Im starting my new diet today and it consists of me eating not much really... Sounds silly but im just gna have banana for lunch" Ive tried to explain to her that this will put her body into starvation mode but i don't think she gets it, she just wants results, fast. It…

yeah this weekend wasnt good for me :ohwell: :grumble: but today is a new day and im going to the gym this evening to try and burn some of the excess calories from the weekend!!!

congratulations, and good luck at your practice!

maybe try something a little less obviously healthy like chilli made with ground turkey and brown rice or oven fries made with sweet potato with a turky burger

yes, thank you so much!!!:flowerforyou:

i'm impressed! :drinker:

fruits are naturally higher in sugar than vegetables and they have different vitamins, minerals etc. So I would say that both are ok, you definately don't want to get all your 5 servings from fruits. Maybe 2 from fruit and 3 from vegetables. You can take veggies on the go to. Carrots, snap peas, slices of cucumber, cherry…

I have this with a bag of veggies for my lunch and the serving is large so you probably wouldn't use all of it. I'm generous with it on my veggies and i always have a bit left over. You can always use the left overs on rice cakes as a snack :-) The caloires will be slightly different depending on what brands you use. 0.5…

Good luck!!!

haha poor Banks!

good luck :flowerforyou:

i will be thinking of you and your family and you are in my prayers :flowerforyou:

interesting. thanks!:smile:

Well I have had issues with my weight probably since around 7th grade have not always done things the healthy way and although I did lose a lot of weight fast it completely screwed up my body. I'm now doing things the right way and luckily everything seems to be going ok so far. It will probably take a while to adjust but…

haha i would have done mine for a week!!!:laugh:

actually i think you'll find (from other posts with people who know more than me!) that it is not about when you eat but how much you eat. Obviously it's not a good idea to eat hardly anything during the day and then a huge meal right before bed mainly because you'd be very uncomfortable! A lot of people think night eating…

:laugh:

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm not having a good day either :cry: Just semms to be one of those days where everything is getting to me and not going right! :explode:

well once he sees you losing the weight hopefully he'll want to join in too!

:tongue:

mine's not been too bad so far, I've been to the gym twice and i'm going again today and friday but tomorrow is my sisters birthday and we are going out to eat. i'm not too worried about the calorie side cause I'm saving up some extra caloires today and will exercise the rest off on friday but all the salt will make me so…

I'm 18 so you're definately not alone. Send me a message if you feel like talking/supporting someone you're own age!:flowerforyou:

i finally added a photo, only one but i'll add more soon!
