Les Misérables... Wow. In the cinema before this, I might have felt a tear run down my face watching a sad film.. War Horse made my eyes water... But not like this. My fiancé, my best friend and myself were bawling our eyes out at Les Mis! Such emotion! Such a fantastic film though - I'd definitely see it again!

Why don't you try the 30 day Squat challenge? I'm doing it at the moment and on day 11. I did up to day 7 all as one set, but now I do 2 sets of 50 squats and then today will be +10. I think the idea is to try and do them all in one go... But some people do sets of 10 - whatever works best for you! As long as they are done…

Bump!

Just try not to eat too much fruit as it is high in sugar (natural), and remember to log it :) And resist the temptation to put sugar on your strawberries.

Apparently pomegranates curb your appetite! And they are lovely in salads and desserts, or to have the seeds on their own - yum! I read somewhere that berries are good at burning abdominal fats (I don't know how true that is... It's probably a load of crap, but if it provides a placebo effect and makes you think that they…

You look so much healthier and happier! (I imagine you'll feel the same too!) Good luck with maintaining, I know you can do it! And well done for doing so well :) My fiancé's best friends little sister passed away last year at the age of 19 due to anorexia... I do understand that it is very difficult to deal with, and I'm…

Dip them in chocolate and serve with vanilla ice cream. But of course, that's not healthy... So if I want a dessert I have them with natural yoghurt and a teaspoon of honey.

Tyrian is my favourite character by far! But I love Charles Dance as Tywin... Arya is fantastic for her age... Just fantastic acting, fantastic story... Just bloody brilliant!

You should most definitely watch it!! Start from season 1 episode 1 - no peaking! They run very close to the books, so if you want to read the books, I recommend reading them first... But it is absolutely FANTASTIC! Highly recommended :)

I'm from Nottingham, but I live in Hertfordshire at the moment for uni :-) I've added you, others on here can add me too :-) I log my diary daily and try and give as much motivational support as possible!

Bump.

Uni, Christmas, Birthdays, Easter and any chance for chocolate or junk food or alcohol and I'd agree to it... My Doctor told me that I'm in danger of a high blood pressure (it runs in my family) and that I need to "be healthier" - I was 73kg (5ft 4") when she told me this! I have always been a bit curvier and chunkier than…

I don't think it makes much of a difference, the weather here is temperamental whatever the month, although August should be warmer. There's still plenty to do in London, whatever the time of year! Just make sure you bring both shorts and jeans! (even in September).

Hi! I am also trying to look good for the summer! (and after that... But I'm aiming to look good for when it hits the summer!) I've added you, and others on here can add me too. I log daily and try to provide as much motivational support as I can! Good luck! If you really do want the weight loss, then you will achieve it!…

It doesn't bother me in the winter, but in the summer, I french plait it every night. If my fiancé rolls on it, I kick him. Simples.

It's time that's the problem, I have lectures and the gym is busy after lectures, and is often booked out by the sports clubs :-( I will bump up my time in the gym next week, I'll just have to get up a little earlier! I just don't want to over-do it when my body isn't used to it. I might have a play around in the gym at…

Well done! :D

I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one who makes room for alcohol calories!! I might have to start drinking g&t more often (o no,,) if it's so low calorie! I know it's all about moderation... But sometimes it's so difficult! Thanks for your responses :D I was just curious! Feel free to add me by the way! x

I live in Hertfordshire and in Nottingham depending on when I'm at uni or at home! Feel free to add me :-) If anyone's interested, I have just qualified as a Veterinary Nurse and I am topping up my FdSc degree to a BSc :-)

I'm 21! I've added you - anyone else feel free :-) 5ft 4, 64kg... Want/need to be 60kg at least! xx

Do they have to be all at once? The early days don't sound so bad... But 250 in one go! Ouch! No pain, no gain though! I'm in, I'll do them this evening :-)

I mean 'tone' my hips really, I know it's very difficult to lose fat from one particular area! Any toning exercises you can recommend? If my boobs were bigger, I'd at least look balanced in my figure!

Hey! I've been on here a month or so now, so I'm still relatively new! I've added you :-)

Hey! I know what the comments are going to be like following this one... But I can seriously recommend the Shakeweight. Please excuse the cheesy video, and try to ignore the comments that are under it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXHUdvvHTkw I bought one (after being quite skeptical) and I can actually say that I can…

Hey! I'm 21, and at university at the Royal Veterinary College in London! I've always been a bit on the curvier side of life, but being at university has completely wrecked my figure! I'm also hoping to find others out there in similar situations - I don't know about you, but I feel like I need all the support I can get! I…

Best: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band at the Stadium of Light in Sunderland 2012 - absolutely amazing. No gig will ever live up to this!! It was at least a 3hr set, without any breaks or support acts... Just pure Bruce, and it was fantastic. Worst: Jon Allen at the Rescue Rooms in Nottingham 2012 - at least I only…

I know it's really sad of me to be listening to this... But I can't help it! Ever since watching the film, I have become obsessed. Les Misérables Soundtrack - I dreamed a dream

Hi! I'm new to MFP and I have a feeling I'm going to need all the support I can get! I haven't had chocolate or alcohol in a week now and my will power is slowly draining away! Feel free to add me :smile: I live in Hertfordshire - not quite as exciting as London!

Hello! I'm new to this too, I think the progress photo's are a great idea - it should help boost your motivation! Good luck! I'm 21, 5ft 4 and weigh more then I should! Trying to lose 7kg before the summer and graduation. Laura :smile:

I'm 21, and university has murdered my figure >_< Feel free to add me!
