I didn't physically see a good friend of mine for about 8 mths. He lost about 8 stone (about 112lb) in that time and the first time I saw him I thought he looked ill. He looked so thin and gaunt that I was worried about him. It took a couple of months but I got used to the new him and he just looks like him now. Just a…

You've had a massive change in body shape from the weight you have lost so far. You should be really proud of what you have achieved. Onwards and upwards (or downwards as the case maybe for weight :laugh: ) from here.

This. I have never ever heard of chicken coming in a can. Guess it must not of taken off in England lol

Looks good :)

Any of the Options ones are nice, as are the skinny cow range. There are loads of 35-40 cal options now, you can buy a sachet of each to try cheaply.

Before I had my daughter, 7 years ago, my BMI was 18 and I weighed 128lb and am the same height as this person. What tht says to me is its all rubbish anyway, just go with a healthy weight for your body.

These sound really good. Will be trying them :)

My face first, then my stomach and hips.

They would work without the nuts wouldn't they? I really don't like nuts and they always want walnuts or pecans in them :(

Anything by P!nk or Lady blah blah :)

Gremlins? On no wait, that's midnight.

I need to know more bout these please, do you have a link to a recipe?

I bake for my kids school, they have cake sales to raise money so I use these as an opportunity to bake. I do also do friends birthdays so I can take them the cake, have a small bit and then leave it there. Cake in my house gets eaten so its safer if its elsewhere lol

Jamie Oliver's 15 min meals is good. Think it has all the calories in it. I'd get up and check but I am being pinned by a one year old :)

This and only this, measuring with a tape measure is totally inaccurate. They are pricey but a good bra is worth its weight in gold. I got measured in M&S and they had me at a 34A :sad: It was saggy round the back and there was no support at all. There is no way that was right so I went to a small local shop and they use…

148 so far :)

Thanks. It is the accountability of logging that I want to keep, it helps to keep me mindful of my choices. I have 3 small children so the stress alone will burn alot of calories but it will be very active. There is a gym but its 6k away and I am not up to running that yet which is why I thought of taking 30DS with me. We…

If you go under the cardio section and type in weightlifting it will come up there and give you a calorie count. Then I think what others do is just add the actual reps/set etc to the notes to monitor it.

If I had the money I would use one. One session a week to keep me on track. You will work harder with the trainer as they will (should) push you beyond where you would yourself.

As said I don't normally do breakfast but if I have been hungry I would always go to fatty/sugar foods, croissant being one of my faves, this morning I went to the gym early and found by 9am I was starving, instead of buying rubbish I picked up a pack of sliced turkey breast (looking for easy protein) and just ate 4…

I am not a breakfast person and I will do evening meal to lunch the next day but I will likely have 2 cups of tea with skim milk and one sugar. I wouldn't count this as fasting as I have some calories (albeit only 40) but am wondering if maybe I am wrong and it would still count? Thanks

Its the one on mine that is red every day, I have a glass of pure orange juice in the morning and that puts me at 20 straight off, that would leave 4 for the rest of the day which is not practical, so I disregard it.

"42" is the correct answer to everything, including life and the universe.

I don't hide behind others. I just won't have pictures of me taken at all. The only recent pics of me are face level with my baby, and I take about 15 till I like one and delete the rest. One of my reasons for wanting to lose is so I can be happy in pics again and have pics with my kids, there are no pictures of me with my…

You haven't really done crunches until you have a one years old's help. Having a small child laying across you really helps your form. well ok not really but it does cause alot of laughter when he says boo. I personally shall be abandoning my children tomorrow morning at 05:45 to go to the gym, I can then be there and back…
