I was literally about to write the last couple of sentences myself. But then, I'm not American either. Smoked salmon and scambled eggs goes lovely with fresh-baked wholemeal bread, lightly toasted with butter. OP, I'm sorry for your loss. And good luck with whatever you decide to cook for your Breakfast with Santa.

Oooh baby. Those are seriously hot leather boots! Congratulations on fitting in them! Now go and rock that look!

1. Start and complete my first ever attempt at C25K. 2. Run in a 5k event. 3. Lose enough weight that I don't damage my knees and hips doing the above. (Aiming for close to 13 stone (182lb) by March 21st - still 24lb to go.) 4. ??? 5. Profit!

All the above. If you really can't shake the guilt and regret, then it's time to re-examine your relationship with food and your goals and methodology. Life happens, and we can't always control it. What we need to be is flexible. Also, check out the current MFP blog featured post:…

Frankly I think it got annoying circa 1984 - 10 minutes after everyone started doing it in the play ground! :happy: Worst boyfriends? Hmm. By far there was the one who moved in with me (temporarily, I thought, but he outstayed his welcome) and pinched a friend's coat. The friend found out when he came round a couple of…

As I fancy Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister, for those of you who are Game of Thrones fans) like crazy, then there's no height (or lack of it) where it gets creepy. So yeah. This.

Nope, you're wrong - Red Leicester *is* how it's spelled!

Do I knit? No tats - still trying to work out what I want and where. (And I've been mulling this one for almost 20 years. Here's hoping one day. Although I did once jokingly suggest that I got a "My wife went to Camden and all I got was this lousy tattoo" tat...) Does Sims or Discworld count? Or watching other folk play…

A: No. I prefer to discuss with my partner first if I want to 'play away'. Q: What's your favourite thing in your underwear drawer? (edited for poor grammar...)

I've definitely had this in the past (and alcohol is, well, alcohol. I wouldn't be me if I didn't like to indulge in a glass or three at the weekends!). I found that when I ate diet food (lean meats, salads, veggies, etc.) everything 'normal' became guilty pleasure food. And that fed my weekend binges. Eating a good amount…

I started my journey with 98lb to lose. I'm now 30lb down (with lots still to go.) My main motivator is my partner, who's cheerleading me all the way. But I also get a lot of support from my friends on this site. They are all awesome and also very good at cheerleading and with the motivational speeches. They also keep me…

Inspired by this thread, I made grilled cheese this morning for breakfast. Though to make it fit with my macros, I only had one slice of bread (and lots of cheese). We were running short on butter so I used barbeque sauce as the spread. And you know what? It was *glorious*. Too tempted to have the same for lunch. Question:…

*like* (In because the thread looks like it might get interesting!)

I'll probably take my birthday off - squatting with a full stomach is not comfy! There'll be the walk to and from Christmas Mass, though, so there's that. Most of my usual exercise is lots of walking and I'll get that over the Christmas period (from getting last minute supplies - read booze - and walking the dogs when I…

About 25 before my first comments. 5 pounds later and it seems like everyone is saying something! I'm considering sending a bulletin round work! :laugh:

Extra mature cheddar, any bread and grilled. Just as nature intended. But sometimes I flirt with the dark side and a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce. Or a thin coating of pesto. Damn. I'm now feeling hungry again!

This is probably the key to your frustration with your last kilo. And the fact it's the last one. Go easy on yourself. Perhaps even pack away that scale for a few weeks while you deal with the personal trauma and stress. Keep logging, keep at it and hopefully once things calm down again, you'll find you've got there. Very…

Slightly soiled... :laugh: Love it!

Hah, another NE Lincs person- there's a surprising number of us here! Peter Capaldi is a good actor - I'm looking forward to seeing how he does as the Doctor. I've stopped questioning whether an actor will be good or not after Matt Smith (and the previous knee jerk reaction to Sylvester McCoy!)

Well, if they can crossover Top Gear and Ashes to Ashes, then I'm sure that the PTB can crossover their two most successful shows. I can see it now. Sherlock and Watson investigate. Strange things happen. The Doctor turns up and proves that everyone is an alien! <fade out>

From NE Lincs, living in London and still waiting for the inevitable Children in Need or Comic Relief Doctor Who / Sherlock crossover!

My friends come in all shapes, sizes and fitness levels. But yes, I'm probably the heaviest of all of them. Well, somebody has to be!

Hi! I started in July with 98lb to lose. Like you I couldn't believe I'd let it get that far before I took action. I'm now almost 30lb down, and still losing. Slow and steady, plus making a few small changes and then building on that is key. Log your food, eat a little less and exercise a little more. You've already made…

Don't forget the ships biscuits with added vitamin weevil! It sounds good. Where do I sign up? :bigsmile:

OP - amazing! I think I have a new goal!!! After I ditch the weight and get ripped - then I'm going to train to eat an entire cheesecake! Awesome!

Fantastic success! And that waistline is *awesome*! Keep up the good work!!!

Double post! Sorry guys.

SW: 238lb CW:209.2lb UGW: 140lb I made November's goal: under 210lb, which was awesome. To be honest, though, December is going to be tough for me. Two birthdays (mine and my partner's), Christmas at home, Christmas with the parents, New Year's Eve and all those Christmas parties. I'm determined, therefore, that my…

Beer: A good real ale (Summer Lightning, Old Perculiar, my own homebrew) or cider, if the pub isn't a good real ale pub. (Badly kept beer gives me the hangover from hell) Wine: A good Prosecco or my old favourite, Tesco's White Merlot. Cheap as chips (£4.50 a bottle) and packed with flavour. Also, homemade wine (my…

Let loose the fat of war!!! (Also: Want.)
