I have spent the first 30 mins in the office reading all the posts...there was only one page of them when I went to bed last night! I have had a good s****** this morning, but appreciate everyone's assistance on the subject...still unsure of the outcome of my trying to introduce meat back again. I feel I'm going to fail…

Yeah, sorry, only just back from hols and wasn't logging at all while I was away (really bad I know, but I was out of the house having fun!). I do have a diary for today and partly for what I'm planning tomorrow or you could go back a month. I eat a lot of meat substitute and protein shakes but I found a lot pressure to…

I eat all of these veggie options, but it still isn't enough for my protein intake each day. You need to eat a lot more to get the same protein you will from meat. Believe me if I could get what I needed from not eating meat, I most certainly would. I might try the fish option, never liked it before but I'm older and wiser…

I've just posted this which might interest you http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/591196-any-vegetarians-started-eating-meat-again If I was you I wouldn't become veggie, especially if you are planning on lifting. I always thought it was a healthier way of life, but it really isn't in my opinion. I've been veggie for…

Well I just had a chicken sarnie for lunch. It doesn't make me physically sick but it does make me feel a little gross, I don't enjoy it. I also know that it contributed to my weight gain due to all the carbs, and subsequently low fat crap I was consuming. I also read recently that vegetarians lose their digestive enzymes…

You look fantastic, well done!!!!:smile:

Bump

WOW! What a difference, You look fantastic. Well done :)

Another thumbs up for the Polar FT4. I got one at christmas and it is great. It tells me my heart rate, cals burned etc for the workout I have just done (which, as a previous poster mentioned, was far less than I had been calculating using the machine's estimate or mfp's). It does all I need it to do and wasn't expensive…

^^ This exactly! :smile:

Number 2 or 5 would be my ideal body shape. I don't think 5 is too skinny......however the others, in my opinion don't look attractive.

Well done!!!!! :smile:

You are all making me want to vomit :wink: It's too early in the morning for me to even think about some of these things you are mentioning (most of which I had to look up on google), but as a Scot I used to always eat haggis (spiced oats and meat cooked in sheep's stomach) and black pudding (oats etc mixed with pigs blood…

Of course you can join in! Just log your minutes as mentioned in the first post. You seem to have your weight loss tracker on your post...is that what you were meaning? :smile:

Haha!! I'm beginning to hate the cross trainer too!!! I put something on a dvd and watch that while I'm on it, makes it easier....slightly.
