Im 5"5 eat 1690cals and eat most of my exercise calories I burn and I lose 1-2lbs a week depending on my daily running around after kids. Its fine to eat the calories you have allotted to you. That's how mfp works, it works out an amount with enough calories cut out to lose whatever you told it you wanted to lose each week…

I just leave it as Id logged it. My kids are terrible for pinching my food. My 2yr old by always steals my carrots sticks if he sees them on my plate. Even if he has some on his plate!

Im the same. Well im on day 4 of not binging now. Last night I could have, but I just looked at my last 2 days of intake and I had 400calories spare. No wonder I was hungry! I couldn't sleep because I was hungry :neutral_face: so I had about 300 cals last night and just spread it over yesterday/day befores calories so I…

Im on 1600cals a day and eat back most of my exercise calories (heart rate monitor). I have around 100-150 left some days, depends if im too busy to eat bigger meals or if im just not hungry that day

Im 3 days into a hopefully successful binge free period. Im aiming for 1600cals a day and eating back most of my exercise calories (to get within 150-100cals of my NET goal just in case of inaccuracies on exercise days with my HRM) Iv found having a low calorie hot chocolate while watching a long film helps. Keeps your…

going to do this tomorrow, got a big meal to make for the family so will be using this way from now on. Kind of simple and obvious when you think about it!

I always find im not hungry in the early morning and get hungry at night so make sure I can fit a snack in. Usually a wholemeal sandwich with cheese spread (around 180calories) for night time. after a sandwich im fine, but I need a filling snack after a busy day! Maybe portion up a smaller amount for a snack (maybe get a…

Im probably being very dumb (not difficult for me!) but how do you do this? Need it in simple terms lol. Thanks to anyone who replies x

I always feel like I need to eat more and go for the filling, stodgy foods when ill, I only lose my appetite if its a stomach bug or sickness. Common colds leave me feeling like I need to eat more too x

I save a few hundred calories for snacks at night. Usually a 100cal amount or a piece of chocolate/cheese or something filling x

totally depends on my day. If tis a day I have to sort both kids out,then take the oldest to nursery, do the weeks food shop then put away and head back out to pick up from nursery school, all in 3hours then I don't eat breakfast as I don't have time! If its a quieter day and im not too busy in the AM I will, all depends…

mmm... I was thinking, do I need to wash my workout gear after every workout (30-60mins cardio 3 days a week at home) but guess not. I just wear my jogging bottoms (soft jersey material ones) and after a workout Il just change shirts, spray more deodorant (I shower every 2 days, don't get sweaty unless I workout hard) but…

Jessica Smith has some on her youtube channel. quite a bit more challenging then Leslies, more moves and a bit quicker!

I usually get around 80cals a mile depending how fast I walk - I usually slow jog. I know when I do the 4 mile workout I usually burn around 350cals and feel great for it x Before I got my polar ft4 I used to guess at 5cals a minute burned for low impact stuff, so any extra is a bonus

Anyone trying this? Im looking to order it soon, Im slowly getting back into exercise after some health issues so thought this looked good. Anyone?

Id be interested too. Iv 10wks with my third and with my 2 boys I had great hair and skin but this time my hair and face are so oily and terrible! My hair is slowly going back to normal but my skin has so many spots!

wow no wonder some people think they don't eat enough to have put on weight. I mean a milkshake for 2000 calories?!

hi all. Im expecting number 3 between 4-8th august, I have my "booking" appointment today at 12pm to see a midwife and get my notes sorted. Im about 9.5wks now. I have a 3yr old boy and 2 yr old boy and cant wait for the new arrival x] Im 5"5 and 184lb. Not gained yet and hoping to gain minimum this time. I gained 30lb…

Im on mine right now and just did a Leslie Sansone walk to the hits workout found on youtube. Marching in place, kicks and side steps and arm raises so nothing with too much movement!

Im aiming for 1500cals. I need to snap out of the "need to lose so much weight as quickly as possible" mindset so Im sticking to that and eating back exercise calories. Im 5"5 and 180lbs, wanting to get back to 130-140lbs x

One of the biggest reasons is my kids. I have a 3yr old son and a 20mnth old son and in the UK kids can start reception class (the easy fun play year before Year 1) and I dont want to be the fat mum who feels big and uncomfortable in her clothes waiting for her kids at the end of the day. Im 12st7lbs so not huge but Im 5"5…

could it be because of you thyroid? If its not medical then I was the same. When my kids were babies and waking at night Id be up with them a 2am and Id be eating another meal through tiredness and to keep energy up. I try to make sure I eat something before bed so I dont wake at night hungry and I end up not getting…

If I want to workout twice I will have a wash down with a soapy cloth..done quick and washed/dried in a few minutes. My hair doesnt get sweaty when I tie it up so just chuck it in a high ponytail/bun and wash it every 2 days.I will only workout twice if I feel like the first workout wasnt "good enough" for me and I need to…

Im doing ww but from home and using facebook groups for tips and support. Maybe look into doing it that way? Finding other people your age and ability to connect with? Im 23 and mum to two young boys so im better with online support

for me I pretty much eat the same but smaller portions. Like no more heaped plates of pasta now I put 75g dry pasta in the pan for myself and add tons of veggies. I dont want to change all I eat then give in to cravings later. Id rather eat the foods I like but change portion sizes and replace some of the food with lots of…

just did a 30min kickbox youtube vido, only burned 150cals, couldnt really get going and get into the workout. Feel like I need to do more but might just chill.

I have a 500ml cup I try to fill 4 times a day making 2litres plus any cups of tea I drink (250ml cups from 2-6 a day maybe) I usually add cordial squash to my water to liven it up and thats about 10cals for a 500ml glass

Id exercise to earn some cals back or if I had enough Id have a big bowl of mixed veg with some cous cous and soy sause or a flavoured stock cube to add flavour.

I second sugar free jelly. 40 cals for 1 pint which is 4 servings but I have the whole one to myself as a sweet snack. Im also going to try having a bowl of hot oatmeal with cinnamon at night if Im hungry only about 150cals for a good sized bowl and it will keep me full so no late night snacking!

I eat it most day as I dont like meat (all tastes too heavy and not nice to me) I dont find any side effects of bad stomach problems from it
