Good plan. Everyone's welcome to add me :) I'm not starting today because I've totally messed up my sleeping pattern and need to get back into it. Sooo, I'm gonna do some bedtime yoga, drink some chamomile tea and try to get to bed at a decent time ^-^

Good work and well done!! We're around the same weight. What's your goal weight?

Hey, welcome to the site! :) I sent you a friend request.

I'd like to join ^.^ I need some motivation and this would be perfect!!

Welcome :) Wow! That's a lot of exercise- good for you! I can just about do my exercise DVD 3 times a week haha

Hey there, welcome to the site! Good luck with the weight loss :)

Hmmm, I'm not sure how to describe the taste. It's not sweet but you can add lemon to it. I hear it's really good for boosting metabolism

Hi, I took a look at your food diary and saw that you just had coffee in the morning. It's really important to eat breakfast everyday as that kick starts your metabolism. Hope this helps :)

Keep up the good work!! You've done so well

Woohoo!! :D

There used to be an ad campaign where I'm from saying that walking a brisk mile uses up the same amount of calories as jogging a mile. It might take longer but it's the same, just as long as your heart rate is up :)

Mmmmmmmmmmm I love tuna. Gonna try that recipe tomorrow for lunch. Nom nom

Welcome :D

Hey hey, welcome to the site! This place is a wealth of knowledge with lots of tips on how to work a healthy diet into a busy schedule

Welcome to the site :)

Well done! Looking great!

HI, I'm from Tyrone. Welcome to the site :)

Welcome :)

Welcome to the site :) I started not so long ago and I love it! There's a lot of great advice and everyones so friendly

Good luck everyone. Wish I'd joined sooner too, hohum

Ooh that's a good one. Must try that! Rage Against The Machine are great for getting that burst of energy. Thunderstruck by AC/DC, A.S.I.W.Y.F.A., Daft Punk, The Prodigy, some of the faster Nirvana songs.... Hm, I think I might make a playlist now :)

I haven't been able to check my weight yet :( Living with my boyfriend at the minute and we don't have scales and there's not much point buying them as I'm flying home in a couple of weeks. I have been cutting out all junk food and eating really healthily for the past week and a half (cheated a bit on Saturday though) and…

Hi Malisa, don't worry. You can do it! A lot of people here are in the same boat. I'm trying to lose close to 100 lbs and have just started but am staying positive. There's a lot of great advice on this site. Good luck :)

Well done!! That's brilliant! It must be an amazing feeling. I've just started and can't WAIT for that feeling. I've already bought myself a skirt that's a size too small to spur me on :D

Soup or toast?

Hey, welcome. I'm trying to lose 80/90 lbs and am finding this place slightly addictive. You'll love it here :)

You can reach that amount if you want. I think it's there as a guide to show what your body burns in a day (I think). My calorie total is usually under. Hope that helps :)

Aww thanks for the words of encouragement :) Maybe next time I go out for a walk I'll try a short burst of running. In fact, I definately will! Good luck with your marathon!!

I just joined a couple of weeks ago so I guess I'm technically new. Welcome- this place has LOTS of great advice and encouragement :)

I've heard of people talk about zumba but I have no idea what it is. Feel like I'm missing out :P Is it some kind of dance exercise?
