With almond milk, banana, strawberries and honey or a bit of cacao powder is amazing!

I'm a veggie and my faves are 3 bean chilli, lentil cottage pie, spinach and sweet potato curry, pasta with chunky veg sauce, patatas bravas, jacket potato topped with salsa, italian bean stew, burrito bowls, quorn sausage casserole (based on Hairy Dieters Great Sausage Casserole), bombay potatoes. Google any of these and…

I've been steadily gaining the weight all week (I weigh every day) it's just going up and up and up!

One bad day won't make a difference, honestly! Last week I went thousands of calories over and still lost. Just jump back on the wagon and all will be well!

I don't cut anything out, I just eat a lot more veg because it bulks out my meals for less calories. I don't ever feel deprived.

@rabbitjb you've made me very happy, thank you

Don't know if this photo has worked as I'm on my phone but I do eat some exercise calories back on the days I go to the gym (I go to the gym so I can eat more). I don't use mfp's calorie estimate, I go off what the machine at the gym says which is usually 300 calories burnt in 30 mins on the elliptical but mfp would say…

Thank you all!! I will stop being so paranoid lol

I hadn't realised before but I don't think any of the men in my gym do wear spandex... may have to move gyms....

I don't really "do" gaming but I love Dr Who, LOTR, Harry Potter, Walking Dead (and anything zombie related), Marvel, Disney, I go to Comic Con, read *kitten* tons, watch loads of films, love musicals, terrible at socailising (lol), have loads of tattoos (working on a sleeve right now), love old style vampires when they…

This is my third week too and the same has happened to me! Fri (WI day) - 194.8lbs Mon - 193lbs Tue - 193.4lbs Wed - 194.2lbs WTF????

Sorry then hun, I'm on 1200 a day. Got events to slim for this year so going in all guns blazing!

Same! Lol.

I'm 195lbs and eating 1200 calories to lose 2lbs a week. I have lost 10lbs in 21 days so 1300 calories for you should be fine.

I go to the gym 6 times a week but only do 30 mins and burn around 300 cals according to the elliptical machine. When I put the same into mfp it usually over estimates calories burnt by about 1/3 so I eat back most of my calories some days and others only a few, depending how hungry I am. I and trying to get out of the…

I'm 27, 5'5", married, no kids so I'm fat out of my own greed, also have a desk job sitting 8 hours a day, started on mfp 21 days ago at 205.25lbs, currently 195.25lbs, goal 1 is 154 lbs. My allowance is 1200 calories a day but I do 30 mins of cardio 5-6 times a week and eat back around half-3/4 of my exercise calories…

I have been on and off diets for YEARS and still never got to my goal and i am sick of spending special occasions not drinking and counting calories. If it is something that is done only once in a while, just ruddy enjoy yourself! Life's too short! And you'll struggle to make this a change for life if you feel too…

People carry weight completely differently. I've seen it in magazines. People my height and weight yet a couple of dress sizes either side of my own. I put on weight fairly evenly all over which means I'm one of those unlucky people who has to lose a LOT of weight (around 21lbs) to go down a dress size (although it seems…

Yep, I find things that I like and eat them until I can't stand the sight of them anymore. Some things I just go on loving forever :)

I'm trying to lose 50lbs in 6 months so need all the help I can get! lol

As long as you don't have your cheat day the night before weigh in, it shouldn't really make much difference. If I eat my exercise calories every day or if I save them and use all at once, I'm still only consuming the same number of calories. In the long term, this should heed the same results.

Because I am too embarrassed by the way I look to go out in public more than I have to. I will not go on "nights out" because I feel like I'd be judged. I've let myself get way bigger than I am comfortable with and, although I don't want to be "skinny" I want to be healthy and happy whatever weight that may be at.

I lost 32lbs on slimming world a few years ago and there are people in my office doing it at the moment AND I follow loads of people on Instagram that have done AMAZINGLY WELL on it. All diet plans work if you stick to them so it's just finding the one that works for you. I have also done well on Weight Watchers in the…

“The barrier is meant to keep vehicles off of the path. This guy is the size of a Buick. He has no business being on the ditch path.” Hahahahaha! Love!

In scientific terms, as long as you're creating the correct calorie deficit, you will still lose weight whether you eat 1200 calories of chocolate a day or 1200 calories of cucumber... but obviously it's not the healthy way to do things! It's just giving you an idea of how much of each thing you should be eating and as…

Glad it's not just me! Haha xxx

I exercise so I can eat more. Probably not the best way to do it but it does get me off my backside! lol. I go off what the machines at the gym say though and not MFP. I think 30 mins on the elliptical was coming out at 300 cals at the gym but 460 on mfp? Even then I don't eat them all if I don't need them but they're good…

Slim fast is just too restrictive! The milkshakes have around 200 calories in them. For breakfast I had toast with spread cheese, ham and hot chocolate for less than that. Why just have a shake? I am sticking to 1200 calories a day and I am eating "normal" food. Dinners are things like wrap pizza, chicken, chips and mushy…

Hi, I have a Breville Halo which is a similar kind of thing and it is AMAZING! You can cook meat, potatoes, stews, soups, veg... pretty much everything in them and they are loads faster than oven cooking.

I have been on plans with shakes before and they can be around 250-300 calories per shake. You can have a decent amount of food for that!
