I had eggs for lunch and going to have fish for dinner. I try and make it a rule to not eat meat every Friday, not just during lent!

I'd much rather eat some actual food with the same calorie content than have a shake with the content. As my mouth and brain is more satisfied. But if you want to go cold turkey to cut back your calories it could work - not the most balance diet though.

When you look forward to the weekend, not just because it's time off work, but it's also more time to spend in the gym When you avoid seeing friends as you know whatever you do with them with revolve around high fat food! When you put off uni work to go to the gym.

bump for later

That's crazier than the British law we have that states a Pregnant Lady can ask a Police Officer to Pee in his hat and he has to oblige (It's a Victorian Law that was never changed).

I love anything with a good reggage / dancehall beat- the beat puts me in such a good mood and I start wiggling my Bum on the treadmill!

I love the M&S ones, bit pricey and cheaper to make them at home, but if I'm on the go, very quick and easy!

I only exercise in the mornings on the weekend, and my morning usually starts around 10am on the weekend - I also know that if I don't get my exercise done in the morning on the weekends it never gets done. I'm too lazy to wake up an go to the gym before work, I'd rather work out in the evening and have an extra hour sleep…

Bumpity Bump Bump!

Mine is open to my friends and I'm looking to lose about 67 pounds till my goal weight, so add away :)

Hiya, I'm from Oxford :) I've just sent you a friend request. Lots of support and encouragement here :) xxxx

Oh you poor thing :(

The Support The Encouragement The fact I am 100% myself on here....all my fat girl insecurities are let out :) MFP Friends The friendly forums

1 - I'm deliberately avoiding my friends till I lose a significant amount of weight, because I want to WOW them. At the rate I'm going I might have to spend the whole of the summer alone!!! 2- I cannot stand water and always add squash to it - but I don't log my squash calories (or cordial for all you Yanks) - it's about 5…

That's the best part!!!! Going into shop dressing rooms and trying all the new smaller clothes and just admiring your thinner self in the mirror!!! Love it :) I go do that every time I've dropped 10lbs :)

You can't do this in England in my store, you'll end up buying Fruit (which is fine), milk / milkshakes / butter / Fresh meats (which is fine) Fresh Bakery / Crisps / alcohol / chocolate! This is why I love the aisles!!!!

LOVE THIS!

I have very similar problems, but luckily I don't get it from my boyfriend, just most of my friends (well ex friends) One look, one comment and it ruins my day, then I emotionally turn to food, then I beat myself up for turning to food. It can be a never ending cycle. It did get very bad once that I was got so depressed…

It's entirely up to you - I eat some back but not all the time as the more I exercised the less hungry I became!

Bump for when I'm making tomorrow's lunch tonight!

I've cut out bread and pasta, but still have rice and potatoes, so not cut out carbs all together. I've also cute out cakes / biscuits / chocolate etc and will limit them to very special occasions, family members birthday / Easter / Christmas etc. Sweet things, bread and pasta are my biggest weaknesses!

I refuse to buy it, as I will probably end up loving it too much and eating the whole tub!

I grew up in Berkshire!!!! I'm hoping to climb Snowdon in the summer over a weekend, then maybe do Ben Nevis after that...lets see how Snowdon goes first!!!

Hey Bex! Welcome to MFP!!! I'm going on holiday in October, so that's my goal to get into shape...it's happening slowly :) Lots of great people around here to support you. I'll add you as a friend!

Bump!

Heya - just sent you a friend request. I've got about 5 and half stone to lose, I'm currently at 15 and half stone, so lots to shift! I've been on MFP since January 2012 and lost just over 25lbs - the first few weeks I lost lots, but I've slowed down lots on the weight loss. Counting and adding Calories to your diary is…

Push yourself by 2 minutes at each time, listen to some good music or watch a long tv show whilst your own it, to keep your mind of what your actually doing. I started off in January using the Elliptical and couldn't manage more than 5-10 mins but now I do an hour 3-4 times a week (yesterday I did an hour and half to…

I do this all the time! I have a goal play suit that I want to fit into by the start of May, it's a UK size 16 and even thought I'm a size 16 / 14 on top it just doesn't fit around my hips, so I'll be working towards slimming my hips and legs down as much as I can by the start of November for it!

Well Done, Great Story...you speak a lot of sense! You can have your cake and eat it...just a slightly smaller portion of cake!

oooo I want to know too...I could get so much arm toning done whilst watching TV!
