I think it's fatal to keep scales out on show - if they're just sitting there, you'll be tempted to hop on. I keep mine in a cupboard & only get them out Friday mornings to weigh-in. Out of sight, out of mind! Also, I think weighing several times a day is pretty pointless. You can put on about a pound just by drinking a…

I've been vegetarian since I was 13 (nearly 20 years now), initially I think it was for typical teenage-whim reasons, but over the years I've gotten to the point where I really don't like the idea of what meat is, if that makes sense, so I don't think I could ever go back. I think if I absolutely *had* to, I could handle…

Another Norfolk-type bod here :-)

^ snap!

^ This. :happy: My hubby doesn't mind mine at all, he thinks I'm making a big deal about nothing when I mention them.

I have them around the sides of my hips - I've had them since I was a teenager and, even though I certainly wasn't skinny then, I also wasn't overweight. I did have a sudden growth spurt when I was about 14, so I guess they're from then.

I constantly feel a bit on the 'manly' side, not so much specifically about my height, but my build (I am quite a 'big' girl) and stuff like having quite large hands (and not in a good, long-elegant-fingers kind of way). This, coupled with the fact that my sisters-in-law, mother-in-law and loads of my friends are quite…

I'm 5'9" and hubby's 6'-6'1"(ish) - I know I can wear 3" heels I'm still not taller than him! We met at a bus stop (Seriously! I know it sounds like a lame rom-com!) almost 8 years ago now :smile: I wouldn't see having a shorty as being a problem though, I know plenty of couples like that. I do have a lot of tall friends…

I always thought I was 5' 9", until I registered at our new doctor's and had my height done on one of those laser-measuring thingys - turns out I've got an extra 0.6" :happy: (It's not a big difference, but I like it!). I know I'm not up to the stature of most of you ladies, but I am SO glad I'm not teeny-weenie - my…

I'm 5ft 9½ (fairly big frame), currently about 167 and ultimate goal is 150, going to see how it goes though as people have always said that I don't look too healthy when I get below 11st (154). Focussing more on exercise this time around though, so hopefully will look 'fitter' rather than just 'thinner' this time.

Even though I'm in the UK and we tend to use stone (which is nice as it's a good 'about' measurement - not too precise!), I record my weight in kg as I have less of an emotional relationship with it - I'm not yearning to get to such-and-such stone, I just see the numbers go down. It's really confusing here in the UK -…

Hi all, I've been veggie for 20 of my 32 years - more habit than anything now I'm sure! I've got a super-supportive non-veggie husband who'll happily eat my non-meaty food, so I'm always on the lookout for tasty meal ideas (not keen on too much processed food - I like to COOK!). Feel free to add me if you like, just pop a…

I have a running guide book which, on the subject of feeling stupid running, says, "just keep your head down and go for it. Not literally, 'cause then you'll probably run into a lamppost. Then people really will notice you". :laugh: But yeah, I'm not exactly a seasoned pro at running (still can't help but feel like a fat…
