I know how you feel as I have battled with depresion years and had both the scales go up and down drastically. I now see using MFP as my way of telling it that it is not going to control my weight and this site and the people on it help me achive this. Keep healty snacks to hand for when you feel low and just need to eat…

You need to up your soluble fiber intake. The best way I found of doing this was having porridge (oatmeal) everyday.

bump - off skiing soon so intrested in responses :glasses:

Done :drinker:

I just looked at the sites and am shocked at the difference in cals for UK v US almost 100 cal standard (you have to ask for no sugar)

Such a shame they have done this in US as hear in UK it is I healthy option from a well known oats brand. When you order it hear you chose your own milk and get ask if you want sauces like jam or maple

You can add to your cals by putting nursing (in food database) or breastfeeding in your diary :smile:

Sweet tea is different as I assume it has a lot of sugar, I am talking about plain coffee and not the sort that can hold a spoon upright :smile:

I count all fluid coffee, decafe, soda, teas etc it's about your fluid intake not just water,. This is as advised by my diteation at the hospital. Yes just water would possibly be better but drinking my coffee in the morning and decafe in the afternoon is better than what I used to drink (less than half recommended)

I fancy going to chip shop tomorrow now lol :blushing:

Count its a a cheese pasty which has a smilar filling I think the fried batter will be as much as the pastry or a cheese and onion roll if it was small

Don't worry they can alter the dress for you, you will be amazed at what a good seamstress can do. You want to feel wonderful on your day and you will :)

Liked :)

Baked beans or cottage cheese :happy:

Going over for one day will not hurt as long as you get back tomorrow.... What you need to do in the long run though is look at why you eat to feel better and feel that void with something else. I know this not an easy habit to break and I have only started to learn it at 32 :wink:

I have a few Quality Street (single wrapped chocolates) most evenings and to stop me picking up that extra one my husband is in charge of them :laugh:

Hia from London and welcome, this is a great site for keeping you motivated.... Peronally I am just following the MFP diary and staying within my calories and am finding it very easy to do so, yes I have my days when I do go over but so far I am loseing a bit each week :love:

Palities is good especially if you can find a class that works with client with issue you have

I do dance central and really get a good work out. Want to get zumba this month :love:

Dont let them get to you, its is hard when people are like that

I eat my breakfast at work too and tend to have porridge with brown sugar as it keeps me full till lunch

I do Dance Central on the Kinict or jump on my stationary bike

I've been there before twice and each time it is like my head decides I dont have to bother anymore and the next thing I know I am back at the begining again.... This time using MFP I hope to learn a healthy lifestyle change of eating well (and not afraid to have a few cheats) and exercise. :tongue:

You look amazing :happy:

Thats great news, keep up the good work :)

Take you measurements, you will have probley lost inces from all the exercise you have done and gained muscle :)

I have to agree, I am mostely tring to lose the weight for myself and I know my husband loves me small or large but I too would love to bump into a certin ex when I am back in my small clothes or the people at school who called me names

I cant wait to open the wardrow and be able to wear what I want and not have to remember what fits at the mo :)

I have recently got a kinict and love Dance Central, so much fun and a really good workout that I look forward to doing :) Hope to get Zumba for my Birthday :)

Its a lush feeling when you can do the belt up an extra hole :)
