3-4 weeks :drinker:

add me tall ladies :) 6'1 22 UK

i love exercise, the feeling i get after a 30 minute workout is so refreshing it gives me a buzz

you wont lose weight overnight, it takes time and commitment, concentrate on your calorie intake before worrying and exercise x

sounds unreasonable. why not just eat 3-6 healthy meals a day? including snacks? why deprive your self for hours?

i pre plan so i know im within my calories, if i have a weak moment i keep reminding my self why i'm doing this

because i would like to eat a bit more (guilt free)

i use 'map my fitness' app on my phone and the calorie counter on my exercise bike, most days i do eat them all back so i suppose this could be the reason, ill have to start only eating half of them back and see if that makes a difference

it took me at least 3 stone to see a difference :ohwell:

none :wink: apart from changing normal soda to diet (if i ever have it)

ive taken a break before and eaten what i wanted, i was a waitress though so still lost 10lb in 4 weeks, as long as youre not gaining youre not going back :) enjoy :drinker:

ive gone down 2 sizes after losing 4 stone so id say roughly 2 stone

Not many people on MFP will have good things to say about 'diets' we're all for eating less and moving more on here i'm afraid :drinker:

the only thing you can do is start exercising, even if its just 15 minutes on an exercise bike every day, its keeping you active and allowing you to eat more, if you always feel hungry though you should experiment with your calorie goal, notch it up by 50-100cals and see if that helps, you'll still be on a deficit so you…

drink lots of water, i always plan an evening snack so i no i wont go to bed hungry, it usually includes a big cup of tea to fill my belly up :smile:

me me me :bigsmile: 6'1, 22, uk, feel free to add me tall ladies :flowerforyou:

im 22 and would go up to 35 at the most, any old would probably not be on my level

bernard matthews turkey twizzlers :brokenheart: :frown: :sad:

Goodfellas vegetable and goats cheese thin crust, 686cal for 1 pizza and they are delicious!

21lb in 5 weeks sounds drastic!

if your tracker is correct, you cant expect to look different after losing 7lb

this means take 6 before breakfast, 6 before lunch and 6 before dinner (if needed)

or why not just eat a healthy balanced diet? this is pointless

i went shopping and couldn't get anything to fit me, avoided the scales for years, hated looking in the mirror, took a good look at my self one day and realized ignoring it wouldn't make it go away and nobody could do it for me.

2 quorn sausages, half a tin of baked beans, 1 fried egg and 2 large fried mushrooms i use my george foreman grill as much as i can :happy: to fry eggs i use a couple of squirts of the 1cal a squirt olive oil sometimes i change it and have 2 slices of warburtons fruit loaf with half a tablespoon of peanut butter on each…

eat them on the same day if you are hungry, the next day is a new day and your calories start again

water and zero calorie soda (if i ever have it)

that seems like a lot of calories to burn in a day, you could lose 2lb a week by sticking to MFP recommendations and burning 200cals a day, fast weight loss isn't healthy and probably wont last

yes you can lose weight on just a calorie restriction, i have exercised on and off during my loss and now only just starting to exercise regularly after losing 4 stone. if your'e used to eating a lot, start off by setting your goal to 0.5lb a week, then go up to 1lb once you've got used to it and stick to the recommended…

when i have heavy periods its impossible for me to move much because its soo heavy it would leak all over! i don't have problem with losing weight though during my period, sometimes i go up a few pounds when i'm due on but it goes back down afterwards, i don't think you need to worry about it, don't do something you aren't…
