  • How many special occasions do you have?if you are like me its not alot,so I enjoy!:flowerforyou:
  • What is Marathon walking?How much distance do you do at the weekend?Are you eating enough? your body could be holding on to weight because you are taking in so little! Just an opinion now Im not being critical! Sounds like a pretty strenous sport!
  • Hi what exactly does that mean?
  • Dont cut out bread!!you are doing fine,some good quality bread is filling ,I think if you cut it out you could get very hungry and demotivated and that would ruin it all!you are doing fab!keep up the good work!!:flowerforyou:

  • I think your food is very light,1500 is good but Id take a look at the type of food,a shake in the morning is very little,you must get very hungry and also your lunch is very little,try 6 meals a day with protein in each,meat,fish,cheese and eggs you need these to help you feel full and build muscle,fruit is fine and…
  • I love my bike,now my bike is a bit of a banger but it get me the 6 miles into town from where we live alot of uphill and obviously downhill!!!! lol my gears are not too great but they get me there!Takes me 40 minutes to get to town but a mile of that is uphill and its too hard so I have to walk,but its great fun and Im…
  • Definite improvement and only one month!!well done keep up the good work you have made a brilliant start!!!
  • Im not an expert but I feel all things in moderation is a good key! The body needs to feel satisfied not stuffed,fruit,veg,protrin and carbs keep us alive and functioning!I would avoid transfats and products containing aspartame because these are not good!Good fresh home cooked meals and little processed foods I feel is a…
  • Im 5 ft 2 inches and I eat 1600 cals a day and Im comfortable with that,am loosing and happy with myself,I dont eat any kind of fast food or drinks,I would be miserable on 1200 cals a day,thats just me,then I do cycle 12 miles most days so Im not exactly sedentary ,I suppose if you sat at a desk most of the day 1200 would…
  • Im probably going to be shot for this but I think you crave because you are hungry,keep something good to eat to take away the hunger!if its 3 hours since your last meal you are going to feel hungry,its not lack of willpower or motivation,thats what I feel anyway!
  • Diet drinks are pure poison,aspartame,google that,more to worry about than teeth enamel!
  • Is desert a regular thing with most people? we dont do dessert only on rare occasions,so why not just stop dessert?Its not necessary!
  • you have my sympathy its very hard to break the habit!I satarted smoking when I was 12 packed them in when I was 21 so 23 years free! I just stopped went through all the cold turkey thing,its not easy there is no real easy way!wish you all the best!
  • you know Im hearing what you say Im only speaking from my own experience I have 5 children and My husband and I never pushed food on them if they didnt want it we dont do desserts only on occasion but I just let them eat what they want when they felt like it.we didnt keep fizzy drinks and sweets in the house so they were…
  • Hi hope all is good with you! Id recommend you start out with a 10 minute walk every day and build it up from there,dont push too hard and dont drive yourself mad it will come in time!Jillian is great but its though going and Id be afraid it might put you off I know Im used to exercise and I was sore for days after…
  • Love the beach!Surrounded with the most beautiful beaches all within half an hours drive!unfortunately we dont get great weather and that is the downside! we go anyway!!!!!
  • Im wondering if this is odd!I was a member of Unislim years ago Im 5ft 2 and medium frame when I reached 9 stone I was told if I lost any more weight my membership would be suspended now you would think that at 5 ft 2 9 stone might be pushing at heavy but in fact I was looking gaunt,I have found even at my height 9.5 to 10…

  • My Husband bought me The 50 shades Trilogy for Christmas,I enjoyed the books but how could anyone cope with a personality like that???? Funny I actually I am Mrs Grey my son is Chris,hope he isint like that with his girlfriend!!!lol
  • From personal experience exercise will NOT loose weight for you,it will tone you improve your cardio vascular fitness majke you feel good but it will not make you loose weight,your weight depends on your calorie intake you eat too much you gain weight! It has to be a balancing act and you dont have to spend hours in the…
  • Well done you!5 ft 5 and 158 is fab yeah you can afford to loose another few pounds,its just they are not used to seeing you lookin so thin so they are worried!well done to you thats a huge achievement!!!!!:smile:
  • I find the best way to combat this is to not let yourself go hungry,eat every 3-4 hours and I know this is impossible for most people but if you could have a sleep even for 20 minutes it helps,we all dip at certain times!
