I always workout fasted. I feel sick if I eat before a work out. It also makes me feel slow and sluggish. I start my workout between 4:30am and 6am depending on the day!

Sugar and portion sizes! I've given up on added/processed sugars until the end of October to see whether I can get it under a bit of control. I'm still eating fruit though because it's good for you. There's a sugar fast challenge under challenges that I've started to help me be more accountable with this. I'm trying to cut…

Thanks sabine_stroehm!

Hey munchkinhugs! Welcome!!! It's definitely not too late to join. It's day 6 (Sunday) but you can just jump on board. We are not eating any added processed sugars for the rest of October. I'm eating fruit as its good for me but no alcohol or sweeties etc! Feel free to post on here to let us know how you are doing, or if…

That's fantastic that you put it in the freezer. I can imagine that took serious will power! This is as much about as getting healthier as making our will power stronger!

Soooo day 4 wasn't too bad at all. I'm more worried about the weekend as its easier to control eating habits in my structured week, but weekends and socialising can be difficult. Will try my best not to break it!! Have a great weekend everyone!! :smile:

@ Lasmartchika I wish too! I think I've done enough sugar festing to last me a life time haha!

Welcome @ Becky45cm! You can do it. Day 3 down. I struggled a bit today and so compensated by eating loads of potato chips. Not good. However, I did stay away from sugary treats. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day. I hope everyone else had a better food day than me!

@foxandflora I'm just cutting out added sugar but I'm still eating fruit. It's really helping me to cut out on processed food. I had to freeze my fav veggie sausages because of the amount of dextrose in them! Well done for being sugar free for so long. That's amazing! What differences have you noticed health wise and…

Feel free to join @Deb1getfit I know fed up is on Netflix not sure about the other one. Good luck, with support I think it's easier than you think. Well, let's see if I still say that after the weekend. I was meant to be at a work event yesterday but I didn't go as I wasn't ready to be tempted in a social setting

Just wanted to check guys, what tactics are you employing to stay off the white stuff?

I've watched fed up, thought it was really good! Haven't seen that sugar film though, will check it out. Something that has been helping me get through is by telling myself that I can have these things but just not for now! Makes it feel more temporary. Day 2 wasn't too bad! I'm not craving sugar yet, let's see how long it…

Well done! Annoyingly I had ordered some premium luxurious fudge from a shop in Edinburgh and it came yesterday. I didn't eat any though. I put them in the freezer. I can't pretend that I wasn't tempted lol

Yay! So glad you're in too. I've actually logged my food up to lunch time so fingers crossed I can do the whole day. We can do this!

I don't have a vlog but posted a topic in a group asking for any weight loss/healthy living vlog recommendations. I feel like I should try watching some for motivation. Let me know if you have any good recommendations as some of them aren't great!

This is exactly how I feel! I feel like I'm quite pathetic as I'm so weak with food!!

How are you getting on with intermittent fasting. I tried it and felt great weight wise but I started to get dizzy spells so stopped. I was only eating after 6pm.

Welcome to the early morning club! Well done! It's not easy to get out of a warm bed when it's dark outside. I was up at 4:30am this morning to get to the gym. I don't always make it but I'm trying to do it a few days a week!

@kiri127 are we going to create a group? Or just motivate each other personally and on this thread?

My reason is quite shallow. I just want to look good and feel comfortable in my skin! I also want to feel good which I don't. I'm really craving that bright energetic feeling that I had when I was a kid lol!!

Oh wow! Well done!

Well done!!

This is the story of my life haha!

I will add you too! I'm up and down, and continuously falling off the wagon! But I'm trying to finally reach my goals this year. I have around 3 stone max to lose. Really want to feel my best. I turned 30 this year and really want to enter my thirties feeling happy with my body!!

Just thought I'd check in ladies! What changes is everyone going to make, to stay on track? I've been so bad recently but I went to the gym this morning to try and get started again. That first session back is always harder than you remember lol! Hope everyone has a healthy active day today!! :)

This was I needed to read this morning. I've been wanting to lose weight for years but always have excuses for not reaching my goals, but it really is a choice. Quite simple if you let it be!

Hey ladies! I'm 30, have about 40lbs to lose, but I'm really struggling. I just eat far too much food! Sometimes I lose a bit of weight but it always comes back. I was looking at some photos of two years ago and I loved my body then, I was much much smaller. I'm not sure I appreciated that at the time. At the moment I hate…

Hey! I am 5"4. I haven't weighed in a while as I'm too scared too, but was in the 180s last time I did! My goal is always 140lb but I'm really struggling to shift any weight! I would love to be between 140 and 154 by Christmas as I'm going on holiday!!

Well done! You look really good!

Well done, you look amazing!
