I'm not going to discriminate against most pizza, I'm an equal opportunities kinda girl... Dominos, pizza hut, local independant place... They are all great... I could live on pizza... (Not a massive fan of frozen pizzas except the chicago town takeaway ones)

I had this the other morning, made it with the oats and greek yoghurt and a bit of honey. Then added some banana just before eating. But it was AWFUL!! lol It was so sticky and claggy I couldn't finish it. Would maybe adding some milk stop this? Or mix in some milk just before eating? I can see I'm in the minority so it…

Generally 1-3 days. My cheat meal is always a pizza, and within a few hours of eating it I'm dying of thirst anyway. So I start drinking a lot of water quite quickly. And I generally never feel quilty about my cheat meal. I enjoy every. little. bite! lol (But I love pizza and its the only food I refuse to make low cal or…

I watched a documentary on you tube a few weeks ago (although the documentary isn't new) called "Why Are Thin People Not Fat". Basic idea as this guy the OP was talking about. They took several naturally slim people (people that had been slim all their life without much effort really) and upped their calories massively.…

I've lost an average 2 year old :) When I get to goal it will hopefully be around a new born giraffe! lol

You look AMAZING!! Just looked up that dress, and I don't know if it's already been said, but you look 1000 times better in it than the model on the website does. Honestly you do. Fantastic work!

You ARE a success. And looking at your pics, you look amazing... And YOUNGER than you did before. :)

Thanks that makes sense. I started using MFP around the 21st June, so got about another month before it changes.

How do you get it to show in 20lb increments at the left side? Mine shows in 100lb increments so my graph is just a slightly downward sloping line, which is nice as its the right direction, but I want it to look at wiggly! lol

Age - 27/Female Height - 5'7.5 Highest Weight - 287lbs Lowest Weight - 189lbs Current Weight - 261lbs Goal Weight - 160lbs Ultimate Goal Weight - ? Don't know yet. If all goes to plan I want to keep my 2lb a week calorie deficit until I reach 160 and then SLOWLY add back calories every few weeks until I stop losing weight.…

That is shockingly wasteful, and what a smack in the face to the parents who provided that stuff!! The whole idea of sending in basic supplies seems odd to me anyway, I'm in the UK and you don't send your child to school with anything like that. As for the sweets, I would be sending a polite but firm letter in explaining…

I usually think of my calorie goal on a weekly basis, rather than daily. That doesnt mean I pig out several days and starve the rest of the week, but if I go over I know I can balance it out the rest of the week. And I have consistently lost weight. So I think it will work for you.

Brie :( I know cheese is generally high calorie but when I realised my favourite brie was 360 calories for 100g I was a bit sad. Occasionally I have been know to eat a whole 200g block in a day, just grabbing a slice or 2 here and there when I was in the kitchen. So I haven't eaten it since I started on MFP because I dont…

How much weight do you have to lose? If you have a LOT to lose I don't think its uncommon to lose quickly at first before it slows down to the more "normal" rate. How many calories are you eating a day roughly?

You could take a walk somewhere nice. A long one that you maybe never would have managed before. Or go to the beach in the evening and just sit and listen to the waves as the sun sets. Have a big clear out of shoes and clothes and even underwear, and get rid of all the stuff too big or too frumpy. I always think a clear…

I have been vegetarian for just over 4.5 years and consider myself healthy. I actually remember feeling a lot more energetic shortly after I went veggie. At the same time I went vegetarian I also started feeding my daughter a vegetarian diet, she was 10 months old at the time. She is now about 5.5 years old and is one of…

Not to sound like captain obvious, but why not just not wash it at all there. When you workout just wear it up off your face and neck (in a high bun or something) and then just jump in the shower and wash your face and body. Then just wash your hair at home at night or next morning or whenever.

Somebody asked if I was losing weight yesterday for the first time... I'm down 22.4lb so far...

I have heard a few times that it is all genetic. So if you're going to get them no amount of lotions or oil will stop it. I had ALOT of stretchmarks before pregnancy from puberty and growth spurts, but did get some new ones on the top half of my stomach, none below strangely. But the ones I did get only appeared about 1-2…

I like the honey oat bread with a veggie patty and loads of salad, with cheese and mayo!

Years ago when I smoked it fairly regularly I did get the munchies and biscuits were my munchie choice. I could easily eat nearly a whole packet of chocolate digestives. Now there were some weeks I smoked every night, so thats a lot of biscuits. Never gained a pound. Could never understand it myself, I put it down to the…

Well not everyone weighs every week anyway. Some people are once a monthers. So if you think seeing a higher number will impact you negatively just skip it til next time. Just keep on track with your logging and you'll hopefully have a nice loss the following week.

A good Rocky montage song... Hearts on Fire (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SUzcDUERLo), Eye of the Tiger (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoDKQYn-ANE) Or some MJ, I like Beat It (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRdxUFDoQe0) in particular. Songs like that I just can't help but move around too. Even now I'm doing some seated…

Why is mince or sausages assumed to be meat. Its just a shape that meat gets put into. Why can't vegetarian foods be put into the same shape? If we want a burger well then it makes sense for it to be burger shaped, if we want something in place of a sausage, well it just makes sense for it to be sausage shaped. No point…

Im not a fan of skinnies on pear shaped women. I think it tends to make their *kitten* and thighs look much bigger than they actually are. Im a fan of wide leg trousers/jeans myself. Not everyones cup of tea I know. But I find they balance things. As someone else said I think they only people who look good in skinnies are…

Cups drive me bonkers. They are fairly american thing and I know this site has a lot of americans... But I'm scottish! I want grams for stuff. And a pet hate is things listed by quantity... 4 Strawberries? Is that 4 big ones, 4 little ones, a mixture... Just give me the grams!! (I do own a set of measuring cups and spoons…
