  • Snap! I've lost so much weight but only gone down a couple of clothes sizes on the bottom half. My thighs are still wobbly and my hips are still wide. I've started doing squats and lunges but have problem knees that grate and creak. Any suggestions for other lower body but knee friendly exercises??

  • When I first started on here I felt the same way. I started drinking a lot of water and my clothes didn't feel so tight around my tummy area. I didn't realise how much I was affected by water retention. If I get a bit slack with my water I start to gain around the middle but I know how to stop it. Well done on an amazing…

  • I just weigh myself every Saturday morning regardless. Sadly I went from 167.4 to 170 this morning because of it. I just keep telling myself it will all be gone again next weigh in. :(

  • I been toying with getting up at 7am to do a workout before work as my social life is getting in the way of evening exercise. :s Will see how it goes. Was planning on eating breakfast after. Not sure if this is a good idea.

  • I don't have a phone that allows me to use the myfitnesspal app. I have to rely on my internet access which is only available at home. If I stay at my BF's house I don't have access. If I go fishing after work for the night I don't have access. When I house sit for friends they don't have internet so for two weeks I don't…

  • Beakfast I normally have cereal like weetabix or shredded wheat with a banana or I have porridge. Lunchtime I have salad with tuna or a tortilla wrap with chicken breast and salad.

    in Simple exercises while bored at work?? Comment by RajwaJ September 2011
  • They are my worse days.When my brain is bored and tries to convince me to eat. I normally hold out so long before I admit defeat. I wish I could give you an answer to this problem but I am yet to find one for myself. Normally water water and trying to keep my attention on something else works for a short while.

  • Weddings are a wonderful incentive to lose weight. I'm Bridesmaid in May 2012 and lost weight before my bridesmaid dress measurements were taken. losing weight is a bit easier if you have a goal to drive you and your son's wedding is a fantastic reason. A lb a week is healthy and easier to achieve so its great that already…

  • My work mate told me to put my baggy fleece on as I was looking to skinny. lol! And also I have been cycling more lately and the usual route I take I managed to do in 27 minutes this morning instead of 45. I'm getting faster, stronger and I have no need to get off and walk up the steeper hills. I was buzzing this morning.…

    in 5'6" and 50 lbs to lose Comment by RajwaJ August 2011
  • You will eventually. lol! I'm down to just morning and night now. My weight changes so much during the day it used to confuse me. I find it best to put it somewhere out the way so to weigh yourself you need to get it. Too tempting if its where you can see it and use it all day.

  • Welcome. I'm from the UK as well. Have lost 3 1/2 stone (50lb) since Jan 2011. Got another stone to go. Losing weigh has never been easier for me since joining here. Think I will struggle with maintaining though.
    in Hi from the UK Comment by RajwaJ August 2011
  • Me too! I only ever record my morning weight. I put it down to the 8hrs sleep I have with no water and no food. My body uses it all so I weigh less. Anyone know if this is right??
