I'm not Australian but European (Liechtenstein) and we do use the metric system. But on our packaging it always indicates the kj and kcal. And honestly, I've never heard anyone here using the kj. But I get very confused with all the pounds and stones and cups. I see why people would measure fluids in cups. But I don't get…

Ich komme aus Liechtenstein. Wenn das auch OK ist :-)

My week was really good. Not the weekend, though. Friday started really good. Even dinner was great. But somehow I was not satisfied and had some calories left, so I had some chips... and some more, and some more. In the end the bag was gone. At least it was not a huge one. And on Saturday I slept in, so I was late for…

lunch: tabouleh (Couscous salad with cucumber, bell pepper, chickpeas, spring onions and mint)

So you're also an avocado junky? Great, I love them, too. Your salad sounds delicous as well. Gotta try that next week. Last week I made a salad with avocado, orange, fresh spinach, spring onions and fresh dill. Was great, too. I love asparagus just plain (cook in salted water with a bit of sugar). I'll have cantaloupe and…

Great work, Cindie 84! I don't know about my weight, as my scale isn't working and I have to buy a new one. But I feel great. Mostly due to the first really sunny days this year. Last week I was always within my calories (except Saturday) and did some sports. On Sunday I even went for a 2h mountain bike tour. And the great…

I have the same thing with chips. Last time I bought some I was standing in front of the shelf and there were these tiny bags of chips and the big ones. As chips are quite expensive here in Switzerland I was too stingy to buy the small bags (they are even more expensive if you consider their volume). I thought that I'm…

Tonight I will make strawberry popsicles. Really looking forward to that. I'll only add some greek yogurt and mint, maybe a squeeze of lemon Juice. Depending on the sweetness of the strawberries maybe some honey. But I hope the strawberries will be sweet enough.

I'm watching my food intake at the weekends, but I'm not that strict. Like this weekend I was invited at my parents for dinner. I think meeting the calorie goal 6 days a week and being slightly over on 1 is ok. It used to be 7 days over before I started. Yes, maybe I'll not lose at the same speed, but I won't get…

Hi ladies. I'm Annemarie. I successfully lost 10kg with weight watchers a few years ago. But as I stopped following the program everything and a bit more came back slowly. At that time I also didn't do any sports. Then last year I started with mfp and I was also quite active. In May I was diagnosed hyperthyroid and as my…

I'm also in!

I always love scrambled eggs with any vegetable I find in the fridge. Mostly that would be spring onions, zucchini, bell peppers and tomatoes. But it works with all different kind of veggies. I usually eat it for dinner, as here in Liechtenstein (Europe) we usually don't eat warm things for breakfast. But I know in many…

I'm from the tiny country of Liechtenstein. Would also love to have some more friends from my timezone.

You can also try to add some healthy calorie dense food like avocados or nuts to your diet. You don't need to eat a lot of them, but they will increase your calorie intake and they are full of healthy Omega 3 fats. Also try to avoid light products. Go for the real stuff.

Maybe instead of Juice only you can also mix your Juice with water. Start with a bit of water and one day you'll only Need a Little bit of Juice to make your water "taste better". I love a zip of black currant juice with ice cold sparkling water. That's the best on a hot day

I love chickflicks on rainy Sundays. The princess diaries, dirty dancing, How to lose a guy in 10 days, Cruel Intentions, Sweet Home Alabama, Never been Kissed

I was diagnosed graves' disease 3 months ago. I never even thought about my thyroid and how much it can influence every part of your body. After 2 weeks of ravenous appetite for everything sweet and greasy (and also eating only those things) and loosing weight while doing so, I got my medication. Meanwhile my pulse is back…

Hi everyone. I'm 26 and from the tiny country of Liechtenstein (in the middle of the European Alps). I'm down 7lbs (4kg) but want to lose another 26lbs (12kg). I try to stick with 1450kcal per day and add more and more workouts to my daily life. At the moment my favorite workouts are: inline skating, zumba, strength…

For my thesis I did a case study together with Schaer (the gluten free brand). I studied business administration, not medicine or similair, so I am not sure if I use the right terms and everything correctly. But what I learned from that is: There are different people who don't eat gluten for different reasons: - Celiac…

Hi I'm 26 and started in January. I've already lost 9lbs. I have 26 more to lose as I want to be just right below the 130ies. I love to cook and I am trying a lot of new healthy (and hopefully delicious) recipes. If you want some friends to exchange and stay motivated, I would love to become your friend

Ok now it really gets creepy. This morning I asked myself the exact same thing and I wanted to post it tonight. I also have very curly hair and it's also pretty long. I used to wash it 2 times per week, so it won't dry out. Also it takes usually 2 hours until my hair is washed, styled and dry again.

maybe you start off with small changes. E.g. try to make home made lasagna (or bolognese sauce) and subsitute half of the minced meat with carrots, zucchini or cellerie. My mother always made this to make my brothers eat veggies. You won't even taste the veggies, and you'll still have the food you love, but it's way better…

I like to eat scrambled eggs with a lot of veggies. You can add anything you want. Things I like a lot in there are: tomatoes, zucchini, spinach, onions, spring onions, leek, peppers, mushrooms ... just mix anything you have in the fridge. You can also ad a bit of bacon or ham I also love to eat zucchini pasta. That's…

I just prepared a really good one this week. 250ml coconut water 50g of chia seeds 2 oranges 2 kiwis Juice of 1 lemon 1 frozen banana (you can also use a fresh one) a lot of fresh spinach (you can also use frozen) Some water It was really really good (boyfriend approved) and you didn't taste the spinach at all. All in all…

I'm always having a glass of warm water with fresh lemon juice, fresh ginger and a bit of honey first to boost my metabolism. Additionally I usually have oatmeal, which I prepare ahead. Typically I make 3 portions in the morning and the 2 consecutive days I'll have the left overs from day one. The oatmeal I prepare mostly…

Hi everyone! I'm Annemarie and I'm also looking for some new friends as it is always great to get inspired/motivated and to inspire other people! Please feel free to add me

I want to join as well. I anyways polanned to do a squat challenge in February, so now I'll go for 2 challenges. Great!

From Liechtenstein, tiny country in the middle of the Alps, Europe. Here the weather is also weird. It should be snowing since December but we have 15°C and sunshine and wind or rain instead. Unfortunately no great weather for snowboarding.
