I personally think its great to see somebody of a larger size jogging/running, but dont think i will go there again myself, not until alot lighter, this was due to nasty remarks made by 3 late teen/early 20's group of men, making rude comments as I went by whilst out jogging with a vastly slimmer friend, so unfortunately…

wow what fantastic work you have done to get to where you are right, you must be so proud of your achievment.

bump id be interested in the responces to this too. :smile:

First thing in the morning after the bathroom visit either in the buff or light nightie.

I always weigh in the raw state as this is how the nutrition label on the packaging is made up.

http://www.freedieting.com/tools/nutrient_calculator.htm This is a good site for working out the different percentage levels for carbs/protein/fat, be it regular/lowfat/lowcarb/atkins that you maybe following, depending on your cal intake it will give you an indication too on the amount of calories that should come from…

Deffo in the right place here on MFP great support and advice when you need it, well at least most of the time lol I have roughly the same amount as you to lose and am on 1550 cals per day, I am watching what I eat, but I do not deprive myself otherwise I'm more likely to fall of the wagon as they say. Good luck on your…

Does anybody know what the percentage ratio is for South Beach ie 40% carbs 30% Protein 30% fat for P2 & maintance etc? thanks:smile:

http://www.livestrong.com/article/496662-chicken-rice-apple-9-day-diet/ Its just a quick fix, the weight loss wont stay off!

ive lost count of the number of diets over the years that I have tried, but this is the only one that i have stuck to for longer than 4 months, its the ease of using the calculaters on here and of course all the nice people make a big difference too:wink: best of luck ij your journey. southernsister, you look fantastic!

Yes :wink: I agree with an earlier post that said about zig zagging your daily intake of cals, lower one day higher the next but your average weekly intake would still be equal to 7 days at 1200 cals. Also do understand about the platue, I had not moved for about 5/6 weeks, then bam out the blue 3lb down in a matter of…

Once a week, im once a month, cos im up and down like a yoyo due to PCOS/hormones.

daily intake set at 1200, but you do 500 cals worth earnt of exercise leaves a net of 700, so in your case you would eat 1200 plus your exercise cals back, total for the day is 1900, but your net would show 1200, on days you do not exercise you just aim for normal intake. MFP is set up in such a way that you should be…

was this not taken into account when you first set up your account? I know I put mine down as office/desk based.

It can be really hard to get motivated for home exercise, I usually start with good intentions then a week or 2 in things slide, but one thing that has remained constant is walking. Do you have a double buggy, you could powerwalk while pushing the kiddies, that way you will get cardio as well as a little weight work with…

what is this then?

I tend to eat raspberries and strawberries with greek yoghurt, or sometimes a small amount of jam swirled though the yoghurt to get a sweet fix. Unfortunatley though my downfall is savory

yippee, I got my Juilenne cutter, shame though as not yet come across a spagetti squash in the shops, so will use my cutter for courgettes and carrtos as a replacement to pasta.

Just looked on Lakeland Plastic, they have them.

I had sirloin steak with cougettes, mushrooms and spinach with chilli & garlic. nom nom.

It think is definately a personal thing with eating back your exercise cals, for me I can get away with not eating all mine because I have my daily cals set at 1500, so if I did 300 worth of exercise then I would still nett 1200 which in know alot of folk say do not go under. I also zig zag my cals on a daily basis so one…

1200 is quite low, but does depend on how much you ar wanting to lose and what your start weight is. deffo make sure your eating your cals back so that you eat a nett of at least 1200, ie 1200 -800 max exercise cals only leaves you with 400 cals nett eaten or 1200 - exercise 500 leaves 700 nett cals. Sorry hope im making…

Fleetwood Mac all the way baby.............

H Heart R rate M Monitor Does your bike have your height, weight, age, sex etc logged into it, MFP as far as I am aware takes all this into concideration when you log an exercise? as was discussing this with a work collegue who also uses the site and her figure for a walk, same time, speed etc was alot lower for cal burn…

Stunning!

I would definitley quit my job, to be a stay at home mum, build a new house, take a holiday with the family and have a second honeymoon with my one in a million husband.

yay WTG 3inc's!!!!!!
