This! This is what I have to do - it's the most supportive thing I've tried so far. Sports bras on their own do nothing for me, and I've tried a fair few! I got so fed up of having to keep one arm over my chest when I was exercising, so wearing two bras was my only option! Good luck, hope you find something!

Men, women, babies, cats... they are all the devil when you work on customer service. However, you are being paid to provide them a service. Without them, you'd be out of a job. I used to find that if I did my utmost to be helpful, polite and friendly, I rarely got any attitude from my customers. Perhaps you weren't being…

There was a story on the news about a beached whale that was stranded a while ago, think it was down in England. I remember watching the news report and turning to my family and saying 'I don't know why they're making such a fuss about me sunbathing...'

Omg, yes! You definitely look a lot like her!

I think you look a bit like Jennifer Hudson!

Haha, I might try that! :P I think the generator I used was called 'facedouble' or something similar, I'll double check!

Haha, that generator must have been broken - you're the prettiest Morgan Freeman I've ever seen! :P

I don't think I've ever really been likened to a celebrity! :( Unless you count the time my dad told me I looked like Alice Cooper... :S Edit - I was curious, so I ventured onto a celebrity look-a-like generator... Christina Aguilera was the top match. I can live with that! Although I'm not sure if I really see it? I think…

Yes!! There's absolutely no need for 'face' to be in that sentence! :P I once saw something written about me - 'she's fat, for a hot girl.' (I don't understand why it wasn't 'she's hot, for a fat girl', but meh.) I wasn't ever meant to see the comment, and the guy who wrote it would never have said it to my face... but it…

This makes me both angry and sad. Can I have the job you're offering please?! What makes me angry is that I am being lumped into the group of 'young adults in the UK who don't want to work and are on benefits'. I have countless qualifications, skills and experience. I have an Honours degree in English, published work, a…

Fish, fish, fish. Ugh!! I've always hated fish since I was young, and I never developed a taste for it in adulthood. I hate everything about it, the taste, the texture... I do wish I could eat it, for the health benefits (and some fish-dishes look yummy!) but nope... I also can't eat aubergine... I imagine it is genuinely…

Haha, a friend of mine swears by vodka lime soda too! I've never tried it, but I do always stick to vodka when I'm wanting a drink. Usually just with diet coke :) Thankfully, I don't particularly enjoy sugary drinks so I find it quite easy to incorporate my boring old vodka into my diet!

I can understand that it can be slightly annoying when your counter resets. People like to see their progress on MFP, and the number of days you've been on here can be a real accomplishment for some, proof to others of their determination and commitment, so the counter being reset can actually be quite demotivating. You…

I feel your pain - I am a huge chocoholic and I'm always craving chocolate! I haven't read through all of the other posts, so sorry if I repeat suggestions! I've managed to get my head back in the game after about a month of sitting binging on chocolate most nights. I found that the more chocolate I ate, the more I wanted!…

Go to the cinema. I'm a huge film fanatic, but for the past 3 years I have avoided the cinema purely because I'm terrified I won't fit in the chairs!! I'm so annoyed at myself. There's nothing quite like the anticipation of a long-awaited movie, and the thrill of finally seeing it on opening night. The Hobbit, for example,…

I'm lucky that I can't drink wine, or many other alcoholic drinks for that matter. I tend to stick to vodka and diet coke, which, weight-loss-wise, is probably one of the best choices for me as it is around 60 calories per measure. This means that I can easily incorporate a glass or two into my daily calorie allowance, if…

Hehe, in that case, ignore me :P This whole post has just aggravated me it seems!

I'm not suggesting that the world should revert to conversing in Medieval English. That style of language is defunct. The word 'gay' in its original context, however, isn't; therefore it's perfectly acceptable to use it in this day and age. As I said - pedantic.

I will use the word gay for whichever purpose I choose, society has no say over my own usage of the term and I see absolutely no need to 'change with the times' in respect to one word that some people take exception to because they have attached their own stigma and beliefs to it. I am, however, mindful of the company I am…

I did have a 'last supper' kinda thing. In fact, I had a LOT of 'last suppers' :/ My problem is that I think, right, I'm going to stuff myself today and tomorrow it's a clean slate and I'll start being healthy... But then tomorrow never comes, and I think again, right, THIS is my last supper, I'll start tomorrow... and…

Age doesn't necessarily equate to wisdom, and it's ignorant to assume so.

Thanks guys! :D Thank you :) I've pretty much been focussing mainly on nutrition. I had a personal trainer to begin with for a couple of months, and I have a gym membership, but I probably only go about once a week or so (I know I should go more often!) I started off with 'clean' eating - I cut out gluten (as I over-ate it…

WOW, you look stunning! 141lbs is incredible! I've lost 50lbs so far, got another 60-70lbs to go :/

Thanks guys! I guess it must just be a flattering angle or something haha!

Thank you! The scales haven't been very kind to me recently, so I'm glad that I could judge my progress better by the fact that the dress now fits :)

Aw, thank you! :D

Thank you everyone! :D

I'm half Scottish, half Israeli :) All mum's family are from Scotland (where I was born and have lived my whole life), all dad's family are from Israel. I love my heritage! I feel so lucky that I get to experience being brought up within two completely different cultures :)

You look absolutely gorgeous! I saw so much of myself in your story, I could really relate to it. I've had the comments in bars from guys who don't find me attractive, I feel that accepting a compliment is narcissistic, I won't be caught dead in a swimsuit etc... I love that you've managed to turn all that around and now…

You're stunning already! (edit - sorry, I appear to be in creep-mode tonight!)
