Everything has been a bust for me lately. I'm not gaining, thank goodness, but I'm not losing either. Now I've got to try to squeeze my 315lbs bottom into an aeroplane seat in under 4 weeks! I've seriously lacked self control lately, with everyone being sick for so long! Luckily everyone seems to be getting better, and…

The things that I want to do when I lose weight are things that often have a weight/size limit. I want to skydive, go on a hot air balloon ride with my husband.

I really wish I could do makeup better than I can! I have a good supply now, but still no idea how to use it properly. I barely ever use foundation because I feel I get that "heavily made up" look/feel.... like it's too formal for day wear if that makes sense. Anyway, I have concealer, perfect match soufflé foundation,…

I've never really branched out a lot, I guess. I've just been drinking it mixed with milk, and sometimes I'll blend it with a banana and some frozen berries, but that's about as adventurous as I've been! lol

Oh how I LOVE the Anita Blake and Merry Gentry series by Laurell K Hamilton. I also LOVE the Dark Hunter series by Sherrylin Kenyon. Story line, sex, hot HOT men and a supernatural base. Great books! Unfortunately with Uni etc etc I haven't had time to submerge myself into a book in about four months!

I have the FT4 and the chest strap fits me at not even the biggest extension, and I'm about 320lbs. I found it annoying at first, but once I got used to it, it was fine. I wear mine every time I work out and don't have any issues at all.

Hey! At least it's clean!

Optifast and Optislim have this type of program.

Oh MY Goodness! I have never heard of anyone having a melon allergy before! People think I'm crazy when I say I'm allergic to watermelon. Watermelon, cantaloupe/rockmelon, honeydew, grapefruit, strawberries and grapes are on my list of things to avoid.

My husband has stretchies on his hips and back because he grew tall so quickly. He went from being the shortest in his class to the tallest in about 8 months! Heck of a growing spurt. I didn't get any stretchies until I got pregnant. First place one popped up? Behind my knee, on the back of both my legs! Some down onto my…

Seems I killed the thread! Today I had a big breakfast as I ate late, so it was more a brunch (its not nearly 12.30pm and I've just finished eating). I had 2x sandwich thins 1/2 avocado, mashed, 1 boiled egg, mashed, 1/4tsp curry powder 25gsm tasty cheese 4pc shortcut, rindless bacon tiny scrape Australian seeded mustard…

When putting your shoes on becomes part of your work out. When you realise you used to be pretty, but now have so much fat on your face that you just look like a blob. When the largest size jeans at the store leave big angry red marks where the zipper sits. When you think the seatbelt is stuck in the door, but you've…

One of our recent winners for the Aus BL (Wont say which one, but will say it's been in the last 3 seasons) is quoted saying that she was on 800-1000 cals a day for the duration of the competition, and working out 2hrs in the morning and 2-4hrs in the arvo/evening, plus whatever they had them do as "challenges". I don't…

I had 4 weetbix with 1cup full cream milk and 1tsp raw sugar. Then I had a Mocha (400cals! Ouch!) and a hashbrown.

It's Sunday today, so I'm having white bread, toasted, with peanut butter and some hazelnut coffee. Not the norm for me, but it'll do, because I'm having a lazy day!
-
I use full cream milk. I prefer the flavour, I don't have a lot of it (only in tea or coffee and in some smoothies and protein shakes), so I go with what I like.

Bump for later! Thanks for sharing :happy:

I started "running" at over 300lbs (I say "running" because I probably look my like a turtle having a fit). So far no ill effects. I say start when you're ready, and good luck :)

Unless there are rules against it, I'd start with getting an electric frypan, a small slow cooker/crockpot and a butane powered gas hotplate. All bench top gadgets, but will open up your options substantially. Stir-fry's, soups, casseroles, lasagne, braised meats, boiled eggs, etc etc can all be done with those.

I find my eating style varies from day to day. If I'm at home all day I know I'm prone to boredom eating, so I have one definable meal (dinner) and use the rest of my calories "snacking" for most of the day on healthy foods. If I'm out for the day and I'm being relatively active I'll eat a good breaky, pack a lunch and…

I've only got two for the moment. One on my calf (that will probably take up most of my calf when I get to goal!), and one on my ring finger. I've pre-booked an appointment in late October to get a tattoo as a reward for running my first 10k. I've booked for the day after. I also have a GORGEOUS piece picked out for when I…

I've gone off tinned fish since I found 12 pieces of round, hollow white bone in a SMALL tin of salmon. Can't even think of opening a tin of any fish now without feeling queasy. Brussels sprouts. The smell! I wont tell you what I think they smell like, because it's just not suitable in public! Ricotta cheese. I've tried…

I've not dealt with an eating disorder before, but I was pregnant at 128kgs, so I know the emotional ups and downs of being very big and pregnant. It's hard on our bodies, and hard on our minds. We're told to gain a certain amount during pregnancy, but then some doctors will still advocate weight loss during pregnancy.…

I ask myself the same question regularly, and I'm still not sure if I have an answer I'm happy with. It's a very deep question. Sometimes I tell myself it's because I had kids, but 50kgs is a lot of "baby weight" to be carrying four years later, and truth be told, I gained 10kgs with the first, and stayed the same with the…

Everyone has preferences, I think. I like 6'2 at least, not waif thin, but not fat. I like good arms, and that sexy lower abdo 'V', a good chunky bum is always a plus, and nice, solid thighs. I don't like a lot of bulk, though. Good sense of humour, easy to laugh. Caring. I used to go for dark hair and blue eyes. The only…

My dog used to walk with me every day, come rain, hail or shine. She's not allowed to walk any more than 1km at a time now, no up/down hill and she's not allowed out during cold weather. When we got her diagnosis I stopped walking for months. I still have trouble going out without her. It breaks my heart knowing that she…

Well, I count walking as exercise for me. It goes in my diary like any other work out would.
