  • My son eats whatever ive cooked... I do make certain allowances for him, Ie i know he wont eat salad so i do something else as a side for him (normally roasted veg) and i also know he wont eat minced meat so no spag bol, cottage pie ect but if i make it into a burger/meatballs/meatloaf ect he will eat it so thats basically…
  • Im exactly the same, I expect the scales to start laughing at me and say 'ha these last 3 months have all been a lie!' I dont see a difference in me at all, yet lots of people from work and friends do and the tell me ive lost weight and im looking better ect, but theres the voice in my head that says they are only saying…
  • Ive lost 36lbs and i still dont see any change, although people starting commenting that i look well after about 20lbs and quite a few people this week have mentioned it to me. My clothes are a lot looser too and ive lost about 18 inches in total from my body so i know im smaller but i still cant really see it!
  • Well they do say 'every little helps'
  • I vary my calories at times, for example, im normally on 1450 a day but when its womans week i up it to 1650/1700 so i can fit in the cravings that naturally happen. I still lost 4lbs that week. My calories are never the same every day... the guideline is exactly that a guide. Try to aim for it as close as possible but…
  • I work in mental health at the moment, supporting those going through crisis.
  • Um having lots and lots of weight to lose in the first place i think?LOL I also do t25 a couple times a week, yoga,pilates and i walk alot. However im not eating any exercise calories back as i dont have a HRM and dont trust mfps calories burned.
  • Thankyou, and to be fair my son was only 4 last week so i shouldnt expect too much!
  • I was a 36G when i started, i've lost 24lbs and im still a 36G, ive lost 15.5 inches off my body and not 1 inch off my boobs. Think they are here to stay!
  • Yes and i have done, I do it for a photographer friend of mine, who i trust implicitly, He does boudoir photoshoots, so although they are erotic they are tasteful and never pornographic. all photos are on an sd card that i keep so i only have the copies! I find it helps my self esteem at times too :)
  • i dont have a type, except older than me and a wicked sense of humour... i dont get attracted to physical characteristics im attracted to the person instead..... ive always been the same..... i just like to be awkward!!
  • Ive got 9 tattoos All in random places, both wrists, inside and out, neck, ankle,foot going up leg, boob, shoulder ect... The only one that actually hurt me was the biggest one which is the one starting on my foot and going up to my knee, it hurt like a ***** on my actual foot, butthen i hate my feet being touched anyway,…
  • The flash was on purpose so i didnt show my face with no make up and unbrushed hair!! lol
  • Mines from the 21st jan so 9 days old :)
  • Just dont expect it all to go at a steady rate... our weight fluctuates on a daily basis so i wouldnt worry too much. Today i weighed myself i had put 4lb on since yesterday... i know this is just water retention because of sore muscles and working so hard the last couple of days! It will be gone within a few days and isnt…
  • Ok cant believe im about to post these.... Ohhh the shame! This is me at about 300ish lbs 3 years ago.... This was me at 275lbs a few weeks ago.... I still have a long way to go but looking at the differences i can see that ive turned replaced alot of fat with muscle over the past few years!
  • Well we all need a talent!
  • Have added you all :) Personally i think people just like to collect friends on here a bit like facebook, which is fine but for me i need a kick up the bum at times, and recognition when im doing well. I had over 20 friends and for the last week ive not heard from any of them. It seems rather pointless to me! Im doing T25…
  • I plan on buying myself something nice to wear for every stone i lose.... I seem to spend my money on my son so it will be nice to have a reason to spend it on myself!
  • I have to feed me and my son on a low budget, i spend 30pound a fortnight on a meat pack from the butchers, then i spend about 25a week on veg salad,and fruit and the odd bits here and there needed to make a meal. I always have eggs in too.
  • At the moment im aiming for 89lbs (basically to get under the 200lb mark) Then i shall reconsider my body and see how much more i have to lose. Feel free to add me :) Could use some motivated friends xxx
  • Thankyou all :) I shall be investing in a heart rate monitor after my sons bday in 2 weeks, right now every penny counts!
  • personally the feeling i got when pregnant where the same as what i get on a normal monthly basis anyway... in fact finding out about my son was a bit of a surprise... i was 3 weeks late, felt a bit crampy thinking it was gonna arrive any day... took a test on the off chance and boom there he was!!
  • apparently I look smaller than i actually am..... one day i was getting fitted for a corset and the lady had been doing it for years and said she could judge a size based on looking at me.. so i allowed her too.... she then picked up one 3 sizes smaller than the one in my hand which i knew would fit... she kept assuring me…
  • Well ive just done my asda shop online for tomorrow and here is my food shop (for me and a 4 year old who eats more than i do!) Tuna Chunks In Spring Water Garden Peas Sweetcorn Macaroni British Small Potatoes Mozzarella Tomato Puree Plain Tortillas Grana Padano Grated Thyme Parsley Mixed Exotic Mushrooms Mushrooms…
  • Im a single mum to a boy who will be 4 next month, i also work whilst hes in nursery 5 days a week so never get any child free time. Im very lucky that he will eat whatever im eating, all except salad that is. So meals are quite easy in my house. He likes helping me choose veg from the shops and tries to help when im…
  • I struggle eating breakfast on a work day so i manage a bit of fruit with some yogurt or this morning it was breakfast biscuits with a banana. Lunch i tend to have salad with some form of protein (chicken, prawns or seafood sticks seem to be a fave of mine) although today i made jerk veg soup and had that with a slice of…
  • Ummmm anything that tastes good really! Bread cheese crisps booze chocolate But my biggest weakness is my sons leftovers..... i hate wasting food and i automatically eat what he leaves on his plate.... ive gone 8 days without doing it though so im beating it!!!
