Trish, Joanna Soh on youtube has a lot of really good and simple food prep ideas for vegetables and some lean meat foods if you are a meat eater. (avoid red meat except as a treat is a really good idea if you want to lose some weight). She also has great soup recipe that I amke all the time called Green Monster Soup in her…

I am also lost in RPG land and feel often like a draenia priest dropped into the middle of a new planet >.> Haha I have lost my weight but am a binge eater and just started strength training so would be great to have some more gals to share our success stories and food diaries with :-) Hope you accept my friend request :-)

I've done three session so far and I'm telling you, they push you :-) And it is expensive. But it's probably going to prove totally worth it. It's great to have someone push you and as SideSteel points out, a positive non-aggressive trainer is the best bet. My trainer is a gorgeous young man who gives me a fist bump or a…

McGonigal = Harry Potter = :D

I agree with this being a bad thing and making you slack off. I think the rewards should be constant and un-goal related but simply consciously indulged in for positive thinking and simply the joy of life and spontaneity. That way we are less likely to develop unhealthy obsession or be so distracted by planning a reward…

I know I have NOT been hired because of my qualifications. But do you think you were hired by a man because you are attractive? If yes, this is not a problem, don't stress. As someone else says you can prove yourself. If they sexually harass you in any way you can always use the job as a bus stop that you're paid for…

I have no family and I'm pretty broke lol So I intend on probably studying on Easter Sunday and eating at least one chocolate food :-) Hope you all have at least one treat.

Oh great, thanks, yeah I'm aware you lose body fat all over as I put it on all over lol BUt I want to build some muscle mass and I figured if step ups will help me do that I'm totally in, I hate weight training in the gym and such like. I lack the motivation and I just really don't feel like paying for a gym membership to…

Same as everyone here I would log it. I had no idea just how many calories my standard cup of tea had in it. With my new measures I accurately measured my two teaspoons of sugar and the 1/4 cup of milk I put in and OMG would you believe it's a 100 calorie t hing, just one cup of tea. I know banana's clock it in there too,…

I know right, gods the number of *****Y males on this forum lol Furthemore I linked an actual study of the measurable symptoms of a physical addiction to sugar found in controlled studies of rats that I wonder if those men who have been all "I'm smarter than you, link a peer reviewed study, blah blah blah" will actually…

Actually recent studies have revealed that there is a level of measurable physical withdrawal symptoms in rats when abstaining from a diet that was once high in sugars, in particular refined sugars such as HFCS. Much like someone suffering from depression the brain experience a drop in dopamine levels. It is also noted in…

This is gonna be a long reply, but please bare with me as I have been through this in a similar environment of having all the goodies around. Firstly, do not feel too guilty about your sugar addiction. Studies have shown that you can become extremely addicted to sugar as your brain develops a dopamine reaction to ingesting…

Height: 5"4 (just) Weight: 140 approx Measurements: Bust: 39 Waist: 27.5 Hips: 36.7 Goals: Weight: 115-120 (tonign is more what I want, and inches off thighs) Bust: 36 -37 Waist: 25-26 Hips: 35 My problem I think is that I'm skinny fat.

How wonderful :D Congratulations. You look so happy an din love.

Well the first things to consider are: *Are oyu keeping measurements. Sometimes as we convert fat to muscle we gain weight on the scale BUT we can see the change in our measurements. I take my measurements once a week. * Are you eating the right kidns of foods. It's no point cutting calories if you are still eating foods…

Oh and almonds. They are very filling and 1 cup of almonds is appro 100 cals. They kidna supress hunger. For me and lots of my mates anyway.

I get a bit bored with my clean eating but I saw another post today about trying to learn a one or two new clean recipes a week and see how yo u like it then after a few weeks you have a few recipes hopefully that you will learn to like and rotate cutting out the boredom. I don't really snack though so... if I am gonna…

you seem experienced. I'm gonna head to the gym once I lose another 5kg for toning etc. What is best exercise for the legs when it comes to weights?

Ancient History :-)

also add me if you can :-)

Hey there :-) I once weighed 78 kilos and went down to 55 kilos in about 6 months simply by changing my eating habits and walking 40 minutes to and from work. I didn't even notice I was losing it really. So it's 80% diet, 20% exercise I think. Also my BIGGEST tips is to not buy anything that you could comfort eat or cook…

You're doing damn well yourself by the looks of it, got a wow out of me seeing that tummy gone. My tumym is where I put it on too. (Do not be fooled by profile pic that is my goal pic of what I used to look like lol)

Great work, happy new year and bless you for sharing t his :D

that's great, especially since you look pretty fit.

I think I'll become a crazy logger lol I'm only on Day 5 but this is the second time in my life that I have gone from 55 kilos to a relationship break up and 65 kilos so I'm determined NEVER AGAIN! I love how it keeps you honest and ALL THE FOODS ARE IN THE DATABASE! lol

Epic effort :-) Slow and steady wins the race in weight loss. Huge difference in the tummy if you don't mind me saying. Very inspiring for my mates and I.

Holy cow you're a stunner well done :D WELL DONE :D I'm sending this to my best friend.
