I can totally can relate to this. I get very dizzy when I'm on a restrictive calorie controlled diet. With all the physical activities combined with diet I think you are likely dizzy every now and then. For me I got dizzy at least twice a week, usually in the evening. I would just drink more water. If your dizzy spells…

I'm always looking for bread/crust replacement to reduce carb intake on rest days, so the idea of zucchini crust is great for my diet.. Im going to give this a go, many thanks :)

You should weigh yourself first thing in the morning, after going to toilet if possible. For me It gives you an accurate showing on the scale.

Oh gawd I know how you feel. In fact I just had a weekend binge! :( On Saturday after finishing my late shift I ate about 2000 more calories than I should. Then yesterday I decided to have another day of eating whatever I want. Lots of sugary snacks, alot of bread, lots of fattening food. Must have been 7000 calories or…

great! :) how did I go on the other items? are my calculations right?

i like it, similar lunches will be looking to eat. :)

i stumbled on this site: http://www.whfoods.com/foodstoc.php I am on a low calorie balanced diet, with more protein intake with fibre but a little low on carbs & fats/sugar. Basically trying to balance it all out. I am also looking for any low calorie brands/items from UK supermarkets. I am cleaning out my kitchen,…

Wow this is great, many thanks :)

any kind of biscuits lol I remember a time where I once had enough of dieting and had a massive binge where I only had biscuit dunking in with tea. I think I put on half a stone because of biscuits.

any members know any items to add to my shopping list? much appreciated :)

I myself was on a a very low calorie diet, roughly 1,800 cals, exercising 5x a week. Lost 1 stone in a month which was too quick!! (but at the same time i was a bit happy to lose it even though I knew that was not a safe way to achieve it) Learning from my mistake in my experience you lose weight too quick, the weight will…

Yess I'm going to add your suggestions to my shopping list. I've also found out about quinoa for breakfast??!! Many thanks :)

Does aspartame cause weight gain? Say if I had a diet coke wouldn't the aspartame or any other artificial sweeteners store that as fat in my body?

@ladynocturne thanks for the reply, much appreciated :) I think tomorrow im going to increase my calorie limit. On some days I don't have time to exercise so I hope 1994 or under 2000 calories per day will help me maintain my current weight.

My apologies, I'm a bit of a newbie. I am 5'6 25 year old male weighing around 10 stone 9 pounds. I set a calorie limit of 1, 450 a day I eat a very low fat diet, eat plenty of fruits & fish. I don't log my calories in my food diary. Should I be doing this on MFP?

Yes i've done this before! Gawd i was bit dissapointed in myself but it's not the end of the world, things like these happens to me & most dieters i believe. I guess was too hungry so i ate more. On that day I overate I spent more time in the gym say another 20mins running,

I would never do cheat days. After I lost weight last year I decided to have at least 2-3 cheat days a month. On those days I gained weight so quick I don't know how bodies work but I've learned from my lesson. I believe it's to do with body types as my body type says that I can gain fat or muscle easily.

Can anybody post or provide any true evidence about the amount of calories/nutrition it has. I also found out that some companies, retailers or manufactures do not have to provide the actual accurate nutrition information. Is that true? I bought 5 packs and I hope that what it says about the calories & nutrition info are…
