I think Coke Zero tastes waaaaay better than diet coke, so chalk me up for that team.

I have previously tried to diet by going all or nothing. I have a serious sweet tooth and can easily demolish a block of chocolate/200g bag of sweets and unnumbered Dr Peppers in a mindless haze of nibbling. Since I started MFP I've decided I am never going to be able to sustain anything I do if I don't let myself have…

As we like to say in New Zealand...yeah nah ;)

I'm okay now :) was just a bit nerve wracking at the time. I went out and did some fitness stuff - that helped.

I log religiously in terms of praying for the scale to shift, but I break the sabbath by logging on Saturdays so I guess not. More seriously I log pretty much everything, if it has a barcode I scan it, if it doesn't and I can't weigh it I estimate very high, if I can weigh it then I do. So far so good.

Usually every day. Tomorrow and for the next few days I won't because I have calculated in a pizza day treat and that will take a while to shift off so I don't want to distress myself unnecessarily :)

I work as an RN on 11pm-7am shifts. What works for me is to TRY and eat about halfway through the night, something like soup and bread (500cals ish) and then have breakfast (anything between 150-400 cals) about 8am before I go to sleep. Then I wake up and have dinner at the normal time about 6-7pm and go to work again. If…

Ash you're inspiring me. I am a very similar height/weight to you and it's great to have a visual reference of where I can be if I stick to this. Good job and keep it up :smiley:

They're not staffed after 7pm so I don't think ringing ahead is an option here but a good suggestion for anyone who can do so to take up - thanks :) I don't own a car so biking is my only way of getting around. I guess one option is I go before work which starts at 11pm so not quite so late - if I don't show up at work…

You'll be fine :) I've been biking for years I just eat too much hence being on here :) 6.6 miles is pretty much nothing on a bike. I did 6 miles each way when I first started commuting (from 0 exercise) and I managed fine. Just give yourself lots of time until you see how hard you can go. Good luck.

Hi Primal :) I found a shop called Piko Wholefoods in Chch, I'll admit I haven't done a lot more than read the labels to check the ingredients and trusted them when they've said organic on the label but for now that will do me.

Woop, added you :)

We will! I just want to be able to wear straight cut jeans :)
