Out of habit I don't eat anything after dinner. That's just what I prefer not because someone told me to. Also by then I'm normally out of calories so can't eat anyway!

Losing weight and being in better shape are different things in my opinion. You could stay the same weight as you are now and have smaller measurements due to (heavy) weight training. Or you could just lose the 5-10 pounds and still look out of shape. I would highly recommend checking out some of the threads on MFP about…

I always put in the raw version of any meat. I think if you are consistent with this then it should be OK. My own opinion though.

summer - light cotton pjs winter - snuggly flanny pjs and if I'm super cold I'll wear my big fluffy pink dressing gown to bed. Haven't started wearing my hair in pincurls to bed yet... it's on my to do list :tongue: HATE sleeping naked. Always have.

Hi I've got around 70-75lbs to lose (bear with me I'm used to counting g and kg!) and as most of us have I've yo-yo dieted all my adult life. I'm hoping to make a permanent and sustainable life-long change to my lifestyle... this means eating healthier (but still eating the food I want to eat in moderation) and moving more…

I have 2 mason jars in my fridge full of water, one has lemon/lime/orange (about a slice of each) and the other has about 1/4 cup frozen mixed berries. Although I can drink water unflavoured, some days I need a little taste to it for something different. I don't drink soft drink (except for carbonated mineral water in the…

Jenny Craig gives you food, you blindly stick it in the microwave and consume it. Where in that does it teach you to portion control and eat healthy? It's also laden with so much salt it's ridiculous. Weight Watchers might be a calorie counting type diet, but why do I want to pay for going to meetings to show me how to…

while he is damn hot and lifts heavy (and is also one of the most genuinely amazing human beings and Australians around) he's not my crush... damn he's hot as Wolverine though! @slendermike - Catherine Zeta-Jones?

haha nope Think dark hair, red lips, cinched waist, burlesque and she was married to one queer rocker at one point in time. @serialifter ummmm Megan Fox or some such dark haired hottie.

Nope, not even the right sex! :wink: @hungrypotato I'm going to say Jennifer Lawrence

Ryan Gosling? (@initforlife_c)

YES! This makes so much sense! Thank you, thank you, thank you! :heart: :flowerforyou:

All up they've been going for a couple of years now! The most recent one came out in the last couple of months. It's been as popular as that old Yellow Pages ad..... "NOT HAPPY JAN!" :tongue:

I make my own taco seasoning! It's all to taste... cumin powder, chilli powder, paprika, a little tin of drained and rinsed kidney beans, a couple of tomatoes, tomato paste and water so it's not dry. I also make a salsa from cucumber, tomato, red onion and a little sweet chilli sauce. Add some guacamole and voila healthy…

Aussie here! Rhonda saved up for a trip to Bali from the savings she had from being a AAMI customer (AAMI is an insurance agency). Specifically Rhonda had kept her no claim bonus for being a "beautiful driver". In Bali Rhonda meets Ketut and a romance ensues. This where "hot like a sunrise" fits into the Aussie vernacular.…

1) I frakking love cookies and living and loving life and enjoying myself.... 2) you are hawt, if I can look half as good as you at the end of my journey I'd be a happy camper! Keep on keeping on, you are one amazing, super inspiring chick!! Cherry x

Awesome! Thanks so much! :smile:

Thanks! :happy:

People still confuse 'diet' with 'lifestyle change' that's the problem. If you want weight loss and maintenance to be permanent you have to get out of the mindset that weight loss something you do for a little while and stop. A lifestyle change is something that should be sustainable for life. That's where I'm up to,…

I play LotRo tooooooo! I'm on Brandywine! Can't say I'm that much of a geek, love fantasy and sci-fi genres. I would prefer to read than go to the pub. I'm a little left of centre being into Vintage, Rockabilly and Pinup, I definitely don't fit into the 'small town' mould of where I live. Add me if you want!

Nice to meet you! Hopefully we can find some more people to help support us (and we them of course!) on this journey! Cherry x
