Assuming you have a friendly butcher or market Turkey drumsticks are very cheap. Roast them, portion up and freeze. Heart is also very cheap but is best pressure cooked or slow cooked.

Once my fat girdle is gone I will continue to work hard to keep it off. That means a lot of my diet behaviours such as calorie counting and daily cardio are now permanent. I have dated someone who was overweight. I could do so again but only if they supported me choosing a fitter, leaner, healthy lifestyle for myself and…

Good job, Caradae

Hi All I'm Nigel, 42 and living in Sheffield. I've quite a lot to loose but its going OK so far. Once the exercise starts making me feel better I'll be hooked on the fitness thing again.

Welcome back Polly, I'm glad you're back in again.

Hi All I'm Nigel the group's token male :-) I completed the February challenge and lost 13 pounds in the process.

Good luck…
