:happy: Outstanding !!!!!!

I posed the same question not long after joining, I think the idea is a minimum 8 drinks per day and to try to make as many of them water as you can. I found that i couldn't drink only water, so i have sugar free cordial very well diluted, so just enough to flavour really and it brings the calories down to about 5 per…

Hi i'm watching your post with interest, i too carry most of my weight around the tummy, i'm looking forward to the responses you receive..:happy:

Take them as a general guide, you will find that somedays you're under and some over, but they usually balance out in a week i find.. And remember just one weigh in per week, if you weigh in each day it can be dissappointing as your weight will fluctuate, i always do a Saturday am weigh in... Good luck, add me as a friend…

Hi Jason, you've taken the first and most important step, use the site daily, i found several times a day was helpful in the first week , the support here is awsome, you are not alone, were all travelling the same path...good luck :happy:

Ensure your bra is fitted firmly but not restricting, if you don't want terribly saggy boobs later in life then invest in a really good quality sports bra..

:noway: :noway: I had been really slack looking after my health/weight, and am now almost twice (in weight) the woman i used to be, my knees hurt going upstairs, i injured them last summer and they haven't been the same since, and i know all this weight isn't helping the situation. At my fittest/slimmest i was a size 10/12…

Lol step away from that croissant lol (do you want it more than reaching your goal)

If you eat a large meal later in the day it could leave you feeling slow. I read recently that the bulk of your daily cals, should be eaten before 7pm if possible, that way your body has a…

Good question, i'm the same, so i intend to up my exercise at the weekend, with a longer walk or a swim... I wonder though if the site takes into account an average over the week, i'd love to know the answer to that...

Yup I'm 5'2" and the heavest i've been in my entire life ever, scary or what?

A once a week only weigh in is best, hide them scales on the other 6 days, you know in your head you're doing all the right things, be kind to yourself, and look forward to the total weeks weight loss instead, let us know how you get on...

Whoop whoop, you go girl, have a great day :-)

Most important you ask your Doctor, get it right from the off, untill then the net can be a great resource....

I wish i'd seen this earlier, it's 11pm here in the UK, and my day is nearly done.....maybe i'll try this next Saturday...
