  • Ok, if this was my daughter (and I have 2 ages 17 and 22) I would have discussed it with her but I would have insisted he was blocked and removed from facebook and the phone. The end. I would also explain to your daughter that she only adds people she knows to her phone and computer and further would work with your…
  • Im cooking a family roast dinner for easter with all the trimmings and am happy to serve it up and wash up, but I wont be sitting down and eating any of it. A huge roast lamb dinner with yorkshire puddings, gravy, roast potatos, stuffing etc would be enough calories for a week, so I plan on preparing a salad in advance and…
  • I agree with all you say except the being winded walking up a flight of stairs. At target weight youre unlikely to be winded walking up a flight of stairs unless youre 80, have lung disease, anaemia or asthmatic, Just being active in your normal day to day activities without exercising will not make you breathless climbing…
  • 14 years ago I lost 5 stone in 10 months by eating 1200 calories a day and no exercise except for day to day activities, I was 40 at the time. My stomach was as flat as a board and no loose skin and no wobbly bits. My cholesterol was down and my blood pressure was down. Stopping smoking, laziness and 14 years later Ive put…
  • That has made me well up, im so in awe of what you have achieved and will keep this as inspiration for my own journey. Well Done.
  • If it is just for yourself then one of those extra small bottles of red or white wine which contain one 250ml glass of wine, which is a large glass and 2 units ,the maximum daily allowance for a woman anyway. The size means you wont be tempted to drink more which would put you over on units, be a waste of calories if you…
  • I had been ignoring the signs such as always feeling tired , being out of breath and constantly bathing due to being sweaty. Shops not carrying my size which was basically elephant sized. My thighs would rub together in certain clothes and my arms look like huge ham hocks and my ankles like tree trunks, my bras were…
  • I get up at 7am and dont eat breakfast until 10am (300 calories), then I dont eat until my dinner time with the family at 6pm (300 calories), Im so busy in the day that although i sometimes register im hungry around 2pm theres no time to stop and think about it. Then at 9pm I have my supper which really is my missing…
  • I take glucosamine/chondroitin for my arthritis, a one a day multivitamin with iron for general health, calcium tablets for bone health and omega fish oils for my heart.
  • Quitting will make you feeleven more miserable, you are better off sticking with it. I dont know how much you want to lose but even if it took you 2 or 3 years what would you rather be in 3 years, slim or fat? You will be 3 years older no matter what happens so you may as well be slim. The easiest way to stick to a healthy…
  • My husband is responsible for employing people in his field of work. He looks at applications first. Spelling, gramar, punctuation, comprehension & neat handwriting. He then looks to see if the form is filled in correctly and selects for interview the people he feels will be best suited to the role based upon work…
  • Hi there Shakybabe, I do apologise for not realising from your post that you were in a wheelchair, Please excuse me mentioning walking, so I agree with the other posters that water therapy or upper body exercises would be the way forward. I would also mention any unwanted physical symptoms to your doctor every now and…
  • Hi there, first of all congratulations at being 10 stone anything that is fantastic, I wish I was 10 stone. Secondly I would go to your Doctor and get checked out your symptoms of being tired and cold and maybe see if he recommends a blood test or just a checkover make sure you dont have any underlying problems. Assuming…
  • If a lack of sleep increases a persons appetite then its a drag having to exert self control to combat feeling hungry, it can be done, of course, but....theres no point in ramping up the sensation of feeling hungry by a lack of sleep. Its a powerful tool in a weight loss journey to know that something as simple as going to…
  • Assuming you own a microwave, cooker and a fridge: Cartons of 100% juice and cartons of skimmed milk. Eggs boiled, scrambled, poached or omelettes in one pan. Jacket potatos 10 minutes in the microwave with toppings of cottage cheese (fridge), baked beans from a can, laughing cow cheese triangles lite (fridge). Boiled…
  • Hi there, if you click the word Food on the blue banner then the database is underneath the word food, or if when you go to log your vreakfast lunch ro dinner you can search the database that way, you can modify the existing database and add foods of your own that arent yet in there
  • I am losing steadily with eating grains/carbs everyday,I eat wholemeal bread, wholemeal bagels, ryvita crackers however i dont like brown rice or pasta so I skip rice and pasta, I also love starchy vegetables like potatos. Most bread and breakfast cereals are fortified with vitamins, minerals and iron as a bonus
  • Hi there, I do think you can lose weight without exercise. Back when I was 41 I lost 5 stone ( 70lbs) and did no exercise whatsoever and I had no saggy skin, no fat, no wobbly bits and once i had lost about half of it I had more energy and wanted to get moving more. I loathe exercise even now, but just like before Ive so…

  • seriously sexy, skimpy undies, red, black, baby doll, garter belts, seamed stockings, all the fripperies ive dreamt about for the last few years and not felt able to wear. I shall be treating my husband to a fashion show every night of the week. At the moment I feel like a drab brown moth, but I intend to metamorphise into…
  • Hi there, sorry you havent beenf eeling wel recently after eating. If it continues it may be worthwhile visiting your doctor and mentioning it as you may have issues related to either a hiatus hernia, gallbladder or anything really. Anything that persists and is related to digesting bears being investigated to be on the…
  • So far Ive lost 15lbs in just 5 weeks, averaging 3lbs a week, I entered my age, height, weight into MFP and when it set my macros and daily calorie allowance, I have stuck religiously to that amount and not once gone over, Ive also not touched any treats or anything resembling cakes, crisps, biscuits or alcohol, Ive eaten…
  • Increasing your fibre intake naturally via fruit & veg or fibre tablets is fine, but beware of taking psyllium husks in powder or tablet form if you have any form of diverticular bowel pouches or have been diagnosed with the same. This product according to my Doctor can clog up the pouches in the bowel and cause…
  • also mention to your doctor next time you pop in as leg cramps can be a feature sometimes of vascular/blood flow to the lower leg and some distrophies/sclerosis/neuropathys begin with cramps too, Im sure thats not the case btw as youre fit and healthy but it can apply to people who drink and smoke
  • verrry verrry nice ( said in my best Borat accent ! you are one of the few guys who makes beards and moustaches look good, you look very very nice lol totally different, what ahandsome young man you are
  • Its flipping frustrating to know though that jerks liek this can run round shooting their mouths off or hide behing nasty letters and get away with it. I wish they could be put in the stocks for the day so people could throw rotten tomatos at them
  • I also think that although Grandma is annoying some of the neighbours unintentionally , it is a fact that autistic children and some other children with special needs do shout and scream a lot , they have big problems controlling themselves emotionally compared to normal children and I dont say this to be hurtful or offend…
  • I hope the letter writer is discovered and prosecuted and enforced by the Judge to do compulsory community service with autistic and special needs children and adults, then forced to meet with the families of autistic and special needs people who despite their disabilities have succeeded in life and if that isnt possible…
  • thank you so much for letting me know I appreciate it :)
