WATER BUNNIE...... I've just looked at the pics on your profile page. wow what a difference in your face ( i can't see your body) you look like a totally different person. Amazing.

WOW what a difference i can see in your pic. You have done amazing!

Excellent weight loss. you look fab.!!!! I'm pleased at loosing 1 stone in 7 wks so you should be beaming all over your face and body with your weight loss. Cool

You are correct see this "In my working experience (and Ive never used drugs so I cant talk on a personal level)" In this country I think counsellors (We spell it as Counsellor) are paid to talk bs. straight out of a book and always, and I mean always talk about your "crutch" I bet they go home after an easy day at the…

I don't know the science behind it either but i do know the above is correct. LOL but I also think when you've been a smoker for years and years the munchies actually wear off quite a bit. I think new smokers will often get the munchies quite bad. Different smokes have a different buzz, so some will cause munchies more…

surely no one needs to be told how to eat and how often. As long as you know the difference between hungry and just wanting to 'pig out' surely its common sense to eat when you are hungry and keep within your calories goal. you can read all sorts of things regarding when to eat but the best idea surely is to listen to your…

so you say, but it depends what article of research you choose to read

I've read some really great stuff on a body building site regarding your question. Have a Google for "body building/ strength training" and you will find all you need to know.

wow, you've done so well. Congratulations

Yey! Well said, spot on, it suits her slim body so yes she's earned it so she should wear it,

Of course the above is fine, however I found that if i have a bad day, like i did on thursday and one day a couple of weeks ago I still log everything, I then look at it and think, God girl you pigged out a bit on the wrong food, I then make a note of words to that effect but finish with "tomorrow is another day, a day to…

hi Well you lost 60lbs so you know you can do it. I'm sure it wont be any different with the next 60 lbs. Log everything, and I'm sure you'll do it

Its not a stupid question at all and loads of people ask it, try a search of the forum using key words like "exercise calories". I'm not sure about fitbit but many exercise tools do over estimate the calorie burn so to be on the safe side I've seen people say only eat half your exercise calories back. I'm sure others who…

it did make me think about food all the time at first and made me want to eat everything in sight, (so thank god i had will power not too) but the good thing is now that doesn't happen, I think about what I'm going to eat the day before or the morning and then i forget about it. Sometimes if i've planned the whole day I…

Excellent, what a transformation. You look fab! Have you lost the weight since you joined MFP or had you started before that?

wow you look great! congratulations with this amazing progress. Your arms are to die for, they are so lean and look absolutely fab, and you look heaps younger. I'm the same age as you so hope I get similar results.

WOW, you are the lucky one it seems, yes it can make me sleepy too. I've swum since I was four yrs old and can remember as a skinny kid it made me well hungry, off to the little tuck shop at the pool with our pennies we would go, we'd be queueing up for it to open, those were the days when you could spend the whole day at…

However some do look just like that I'm quite jealous to say. In fact my brothers ex wife was a model, swim suits, underwear and her figure was breath taking, really beautiful and sexy, however how healthy she was with it I don't know, she did seem to eat well, How she looks now, I wonder, she didn't stay around very long.

I think I've got to give it a try, especially after seeing your picture. I think its a good thing to do something you are good at, I think for me swimming is a really good way to push myself harder and harder and that's what you need to do when exercising as the body soon gets used to it. I'll do as you say, time it well…

Hey who would say they are skinny, I don't think so I think they are perfect. I have noted Tara banks on a few occasions say that she was always well photo shopped, even when she first started in her career as a teenager, she has said her butt especially was always considered far too big, she of course was a V.S. model

Thanks for this post. I think this may be my problem, in fact today I took two sinus pills after my work out. I also know I need to breath better too while working out, I'll try concentrating on that too. Thanks

Sorry i can't help but would like to add, ME too! I think its because I am unfit and the weather here in UK has been very hot and humid while I've been exercising. I am hoping as I get fitter the head aches will go. If anyone can add thoughts to this topic please do. Sorry not trying to hijack your thread....Just joined in…

amazing, you are beautiful, you have worked so hard. thanks for posting this, its very inspirational. you should be really proud of yourself I see a beautiful girl in the before and after pics, gorgeous in both. just super slim in the "afters"

Absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! Thanks for posting, what an inspiration you are, Your pics look like pics of two totally different people.

Definitely see a doctor, trust me don't leave it, this is a sign you could have gallstones or ulcers. I left pain like that, I would eat and after eating i would get hunger pains, real bad ones so i would eat again, this went on for a few years and so did all the weight, never saw the doc. ever, then more pains starting…

Thanks everyone. I think I'll start doing it soon. Thanks Smerkord, I'll check out level 1 on you tube and give it ago.

"Fearful when the weight comes off" Fearful is a word I would never describe as the way I feel. I would say "happy, joyful, accomplished, thankful, amazed, but never fearful, I feel bad that you have such feelings but sorry I really don't understand them. Perhaps you'll hear from people who feel the same but as far as I…

I would input the calories in from your exercise bike, however most people agree that these readings from exercise aids are often over what has actually been burned so keep that in mind when/or if you eat your exercise calories back. For example I only eat half of my exercise cals back or none at all if I'm not hungry to…

I Don't like water kefir and not got into kombucha but I have been making my own milk kefir for a couple of years and got my mum into it too, she had high cholesterol, she started drinking a glass of her own home made milk kefir daily and her cholesterol went right down to a normal range and every cholesterol test since…
