Best way for me is the poke some holes in them and wrap them individually in a wet/damp paper towel then in the microwave for a few minutes checking on them still you can feel that they are soft. The flesh is soft and mashable, good for anything!

Hi guys. Weighed myself yesterday and was 79.5! So looks like it might be going down again and hopefully won't go back up. Strangely enough I didn't do any exercise these past few days.

Hi guys, thanks for your reply I'm thinking I will just be patient for now and hope for the best. It can be confusing as I am eating low calorie and there is the thought of many more calories would jump start my weight loss again but yeah everyone else has different opinions which I'm thankful for though.

Thanks for the great advice, I do use a food scale and I have a heart rate monitor to tell me how many calories I'm burning. But I could log better when it comes to cooking oil, I use a spray and it hasn't been that long since I lost so maybe I will be ok. Thanks

Hi, I'm eating 1,200

I ran around my backyard in a small circle in the dark until I burnt 500 calories haha

Hi, sorry I should of mentioned the pre made was just the inside filling I didn't use crust I has mashed sweet potatoes on top.

Thanks for everyone's opinions. I think if I did have more money I would make it myself maybe once I get a job I will :) some more background on my situation is I'm a recent graduate and I've been living off my savings desperately looking for a job. My boyfriend also lives with me and also unemployed at the moment and he…

Yeah we live near the 2nd most expensive supermarket in our country. The 1st is the second closest. We don't have a car either so its a pain but we have to shop there.

I guess I was trying to eat complex carbs but yes was worried that too many would cause weight gain or no weight loss. But yes my calories are controlled and my fat and protein is a good balance

Hi, yes I am within my calorie limit :)

Yummy

Love reading though these My moment was when I was so close to 100kg and I just didn't want to reach that number and also I had just passed my boyfriend in weight and I didn't feel like a woman. I want to be cute and feminine and something my boyfriend can be proud of. If anyone would like to talk etc I'm a good person :)

Yes i know its a life long commitment but I'd like to live my life at my goal weight now

Im 5ft 8 Starting weight was: 97kg or 213lbs Current is: 86kg or 190lbs Goal is 66kg or 145lbs I have 1200 cal a day and run everyday for 45 mins or until i burn 500 cal. I have a heart rate monitor watch they are good i recommend them.

So cool to hear everyone stories

Thanks guys. Sometimes i get home late and was wondering if a stuff like that is ok. Yes i have noticed some are high sodium, even the homemade stew my mum makes. the one i had packaged had chick peas, tonato, coconut cream, onion, pumpkin and some spices in. Was yum and i guess i just thought it was too yummy and easy to…

Amazing! A 10kg loss is great progress and you should be super proud. I know it's easy to get caught up in thinking about where we want to be, but just remind yourself of where you have come from. I'm sure your body looks very different than when you started. Like people have said, just be patient with the process and…

Wow so much good advice thank you! I just took some measurements and ive lost 6cm on my bust 24cm on my waist and 3cm on my hips idk if this is good for 10kg loss so far. Still feel like my body isnt shrinking fast enough and i get frustrated as ive decided to change my life yet my body is not responding like id want it do…

Ok Thanks. I never thought about my period. I have been bleeding for a few weeks now because of my body getting back to my birth control because i forgot it once around 6 weeks ago maybe they could be contributing. I have seen my doctor btw i just have to wait it out. I will also take measurements Thanks. I have a few…

Thanks guys! yeah i have food scales that i use. My mum gets annoyed that i use it at the dinner table lol But yep, logging my oils and sauces etc. Ill just keep going and see how it goes and wont worry unless it continues for another few weeks.

I'm on 1200 cal a day too and I'm 20yrs old 5ft 8 tall. Some days I'm really hungry and some days I'm not. If you eat healthy you can eat quite a lot in a day on those calories. Im taking a very aggressive approach. I am also exercising for 40 mins a day and not eating back those calories and i was losing 1-2kg a week. Now…

Thanks, yeah I'm just trying to lose fat, not build muscle of train for endurance. Atm my weight loss has slowed right down so I've included hiit running too because running is really hard for me and the rest period really helps me to keep going.

Thanks everyone

Hi guys. sounds like its all personal preference maybe. Im not training for anything just trying to be active as much as i can to lose weight.

Ok Thank you everyone i don't feel so worried now.

Oh ok! i didn't know that was common.

Hi guys! I was much more hungrier the next few days. I will try to meet my calorie goal. monsoonstorm was right i was thinking if i eat less I'll lose more but i need to up my exercise so i need more energy. Atm I've stopped losing weight and idk why. Some help with that would be appreciated. I've posted another thread.

opps forgot to write my reply. In regards to all your replies •The bun maybe wrong, thanks ill look into that •The bun i had was like a slider so i shaped the mince to fit in the bun. It was tiny haha • I weigh in grams because that is what is used in nz and i often have the same amounts most days. So i grab some chicken…
