bump need this website for later when I can find my tape measure!!! thank you thank you thank you!!!

mine is 4th October. So shall we do a set amount to lose? or just weigh in every week. I had a mini goal of 161 which would be 17lbs. C'mon let' do it! :tongue:

You're doing amazing, remember this is a journey not a race and good things come to those who wait. I've been doing this since April and I have had moments where I'm fed up and annoyed at myself for letting myself get in the shape I was and also not being able to eat what I wanted. But every day is a new day and you do get…

Hello me!!! Seriously, I have major problems with this, I wrote about it in my blog the other day and had to post on here straight after I managed to through something away... for the first time!!!! It's awful and I know exactly what you are going through!

If dreaming is a little dangerous, the cure is not to stop dreaming but to dream more. JFDI - Just f**king Do It (my boss used to say this to me all the time... in a nice way!)

I will investigate but I sure am interested in the answers :smile:

25. It is illegal for a cab in the City of London to carry rabid dogs or corpses. 24. It is illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament. 23. It is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British monarch upside down. 22. In France, it is forbidden to call a pig Napoleon. 21. Under the UK’s Tax Avoidance…

London Hackney Carriages (taxis/cabs) must carry a bale of hay and a sack of oats. .

this is why I love this site, as people know how I feel!! It has come from parents saying eat everything on your plate or eat it for breakfast. This is the only place that actually understands me (God that sounded slushy!!:love: )

I don't eat mine back either but I know there is something scientific about your net calories being way under 1000 and that is bad, so either way I look at the week as a whole for calories and exercise and try to have a deficit of 5000-7000 to get a two pound loss.

200000!!! Wow you get to eat loads, how many doughnuts can I get for that? Only teasing :tongue:

isn't it something to do with BMR so... if my Basic Metabolic Rate meant I burnt off 1700 calories a day naturally. If I cut by 500 a day over the course of a week I'll have a deficit of 3500 which is a loss of 1 pound a week. And that is why you have to eat exercise calories back. I dunno, I've read so many posts about…

I'm the same, when I started my lifestyle change there were a few things I had to just say no to. I haven't eaten chips, cheesecake or a cream sauce since April12th. But I also haven't drunk coffee, full fat coke, milky tea or put extra salt on my food. The former I used to crave ALL the time, loved them. The latter I…

you're amazing, a complete inspiration and you look fabulous!!! Well done :-)

done good luck :-)

I did this on Monday all excited thinking here I come 30 days and I will be Goddess like. I'm still in pain now! Be prepared... be very prepared!!! But it does work!

I didn't mean I had lost love!! I love this post. I've lost cheese!

love

yeah me too

jackie chan movies. I just wanna wave my leg in the air like I just don't care! Kiss *kitten* movies! (with a bit of humour)

I had this problem but with my starting weight. I never told anyone what I was. Then I admitted it on here first and suddenly I was really into it all, weighing my food, dedicated to doing my diary, drinking my water etc. It's almost like being held back with a new partner. I'm not sure how to explain, but it's like you…

ok this is going to be easy for you! I've had a look at your diary and with a few changes here and there, you will be able to eat more but better food. 1) I think you are vegetarian? IF so, check out the recipes on here, there are some fantastic ones which are really tasty and designed by vegetarians so will help with all…

omg, you look amazing, well done. You've done fantastic. Truly thinspiration!!!! :-)

you look amazing, well done!! Keep up the great work!

green tea and just loads of water. I always have a pint of water beside me and make myself drink it. I also have about 7 cups of green tea throughout the day. There's loads of flavours if you don't think you'd like it. I lost 4 lbs last week from water retention, granted I need a wee ALL the time but it worked!

You look fantastic and very beautiful. The jeans look fabulous on you. Keep up the amazing work, your friends on here are behind you 110%!!!!

I gave up buying stir fry, couldn't use it quick enough! Now I buy the offers on at the supermarket and tinned stuff but I'm with ya it can get really expensive. Buy jacket potatoes and eggs. Tesco do a salad cheese which is 50p at the moment. It's like feta but 36 calories. Only get the turkey that is on reduced shelf and…

then I reckon just keep going with the laxatives. How much have you been eating? Have you been eating enough? If you don't feel packed up or twisty knotty belly (as I like to call it) maybe sit it out, but def log your food. Make sure you're eating enough and right. Hope this helps

ok. Try: Hot water with lemon and leaning your back against some type of heat. Like said before eat grapes, and drink prune juice. Are your ankles swollen? This used to happen to a mate of mine and she would literally do all this. Drink coffee in the morning just to get it kick started or caffeine of some sort. I'm having…
