I humbly disagree. I've been on 1200 since I got here and I'm now in great shape and my asthma has been eliminated.

Try to cut back, not just for your diet, but for your teeth. I used to drink that much, until my dentist recently told me that coffee is actually making its mark on my enamel and working its way under my fillings.

I had a boyfriend when I was 16, we broke up after a year and seven months after he cheated and ultimately left me for his ex. I then moved town after being accepted into university, and that's when the calls started. The texts. "I miss you, it's not the same without you, my new gf reminds me of you so much" blah blah. I…

I dropped 2 dress sizes. Doing it again now, so worth it!

Squat presses really helped my arms, I feel.

Scottish lass here, feel free to add. :)

You look great! Your target weight and start weight are almost exactly the same as mine too. :)

Thanks guys! I workout after work, around 6pm. He hasn't responded to me yet but thanks to you all, I feel more ready if he's angry haha! :flowerforyou:

Yes. Yes I do. I have been subject to verbal abuse from ex-contacts on here for doing so. But does that mean I stop what I'm doing? No. I eat whatever the hell I want. But what I HAVE changed is COUNTING and MODERATION. Say it's the end of the day, and I've counted my calories and I want something yummy after dinner. I…

I've been doing Walk Away The Pounds super challenge while holding weights, and sometimes I sweat so much my weights nearly fly right out of my hands! I feel accomplished when I've been sweating.

What a woman! :D

I'm in Dundee, Scotland. Here, most people are overweight. The latest trend appears to be letting the bottom inches of your belly hang out of your shirt to catch a sun tan. I think the UK has a problem with growing obesity rates. I was studying NHS figures at uni before the summer started and a good chunk of funds go…

Bump!

Eeeh, wasn't too impressed with X-box there, although Splinter Cell looked promising.

Bacon deserves a medallion! :happy:

Thanks guys! I'm going to give coconut oil a try. :D

Bump? I'm about to go shopping so this would be useful. :laugh:

Mulan! She's strong, selfless and brave. Everything I want to be. ;_;

Howdy and welcome! :flowerforyou:

From January until now I've lost about 30lbs on a 1200 diet, plus I did the 30 Day Shred.

Bio oil and rosewater help minimize stretch marks, but please, go ahead and wear your bikini. Every women gets stretch marks at some point, and if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. :flowerforyou:

Take that feeling and turn it into motivation. Seriously, I had the exact same feeling as you. But I turned it into determination. I pushed myself to do the 30Day Shred, and after that, I found my diet a lot easier. Sure, I worked out at the gym and stuff but it was the 30DS that made me see exactly what I was capable of.…

I'm in a LDR. My other half is in Germany, I'm in Scotland. We've been together 8 months now, and we seem to get stronger all the time. I visited him in March, and I go again in August, then he's coming here at Christmas, then... I move over there for good.

I think men are meant to be hairy, I wouldn't change a thing. :laugh:

336?! :noway:

I'm Hayley, medical trainee. You need first aid? Take me along with you.

I recommend getting some weights - the Davina set are good - and do some squat presses. A lot of the moves in level 1 of the 30 Day Shred helped me tackle my bra fat. :)

So totally following these from now on. Thanks!

BUMP!

Yep... I'm pretty bad right now due to stress from uni... It's so bad for my diet and I get terrible dark circles under my eyes. :ohwell:
