I had a wee peep at your food diary. I can only suggest that you replace some of the drinks you're having with vegetables and more protein foods....:-}

I just leave the salt out altogether. It doesn't seem to make any difference to the final result, only that it tastes pretty blannd. But the blandness can be overcome with however you choose to use the bread....Good Luck..:-)

Astronomy....not astrology....

Your diary isn't showing much. It's hard to guage how you're managing as I could only see one full day.....:-{

It can be very disheartening when the scales don't move.....I had the same experience for 3 weeks about a month ago. For comfort, I turned to the trusty tape measure. I was pleasantly surprised. I may not have lost gram/pounds but I had certainly lost cms/inches. So don't depair. I think what it is, it's our bodies seem to…

'........as long as you enjoy you can be certain that - It's illegal, it's immoral or it makes you fat - (a line from a song in the 60's) How true. Go ahead and enjoy. I find that if I have a craving it only becomes more a focus if I don't give in. So I have a little, and then get on - Life is meant for living, not…

Wow - you have totally tranformed yourself....wonderful....Keep up the good work..:-}

Would you not need a permit from the local roading authority??

Do a google search...you'll find plenty...:-}

If you've worked hard to get something, your weight loss for instance, will work twice as hard to keep it.....:-}

You're logging a lot of 'quick add calories'. Perhaps if these foods were itemised e.g. showing their protein, carb etc. content, you could adjust your eating differently.

Wow, wow and double wow.....I hope you are proud of yourself as only you can thank you for being what you have become!!!!! :-}

Hey - hang on there a minute.....Not everyone is fortunate enough to be able to do half the exercises you mention .......If I was 40 years younger, had the full mobility of my limbs, I too would be only to pleased to do more strenuous exercises. As it is, I must satisfy myself with my daily walk and light cleaning…

I think he's starting to feel insecure and jealous??.....but please, don't let his negative feelings stop you from doing and being what you want!!!! You will gain in your confidence and any decisions which are to made in the future you will make knowing that you have chosen what is best for you, and it is what you want. I…

Is that the same person is those 2 photos???? Wow - what a great incentive you are....:-}

What you have achieved is incredible!!!! Just incredible....:-{}

Don't stop enjoying life. It won't be every day that you turn 40.....Let your friends enjoy your day with you....Tomorrow is another day....(oh how I wish I was 40 - again!!!!) :-}

The average stride of a human in 30" (2'6"). There are 5280 feet in a mile, therefore there are 2112 steps in a mile...:-}

Yes, it's the little things in life that count...:-} Keep up the good work....

That's a great attitude to adapt. Too many of us, in this world of instant technology, expect everything to be done -NOW!...Doesn't work that way with what we're all aiming for. I didn't put my extra weight on in a few months and I realise that I won't lose it in a few months either. But by steadily plodding along, I will…

Wow - stand tall and be proud...well done...:-}

I find that if the scales haven't moved, I can be sure that the tape measure will show me as being 'smaller' than my last weigh in. I weigh-in 1st think in the morning, once a week. To do it more often, I feel you don't get a true reading of how you're doing. :-} Good luck with your weight loss.....:-}

You are best to weight yourself once a day and leave it at that. You are only confusing yourself by jumping on the scales more than once a day. Most people will find that they weigh more at certain times of the day. Just weigh once and leave it at that. I weigh more in the evening than at the beginning of the day, but am…

I think you must lower your expectations....How long did it take you to put on the weight your going to loose? A week? A month? Perhaps not.....just keep on how you're going and you will win.....

Be patient.....Your shape will change, be it gradually. Just keep on as you are.....and it will happen.....I had to loose a stone before there was any noticeable difference. :-}

Hmmm -....

What a dear little honey.....:-}

I totally agree.....I've shed 14lbs (6.5kgs) since Feb. 14th. Before that date I was becoming quite depressed at the way my weight kept climbing....It seemed that the harder I tried to loose, the more I gained. But it wasn't until I found this site, logged into my food diary what my food intake had been for the 1st day,…

Kiwi fruit do it for me.....too much acidity...:-{

Adam's Alewater....:-)
