HI great result here, rmember you are doing this for you not them !!!!! take a before and current picture to work and put it where you can see it if others see it say nothing, just use it as a personal journey planner to remind you where you have come from and where you are going! Others will then see your determination, i…

oh thats simple whenever and whatever they say that is designed to bait you reply with 'no habla ingles' it will drive him or her insane - just stick to your guns no matter how hurtfull the thing they say is treat them gently, fairly and patiently eventually they will give up the game

i agree water is water - coffee tea and anyother hot/cold drink with flavourings are a food/beverage can anyone help me with a little question 8 glasses water/ day what size is a glass - I drink 1.2-2 litres of pure good olf fashioned bottled/tap water every day Is this enough? or should i take more

try finding some arm exercises and do with a light weight and hi repetitions - initially you will build some muscle then you will burn some fat and reduce the size hope this helps

Awesome - shoot for the stars !

could i suggest the following week 1 log in every day and log what you have eaten honestly each day, include snacks, nibbles and drinks at the end of week 1 print each day off and then( only then ) look at the good the bad and the ugly ask yourself what could you change ie white bread for brown( proper healthy not the…

try 2 tsp of light sour cream and drizzle some honey over the top - better than cool whip - tastes good as well ! Have this on top of baked apples with cinnamon - hmmmmmmmmm!

Interesting I too am concerned - I think the exercise values can be off and I check mine with alternative sources, however there seems to be around 10% variance plus minus - so i go further farther and the weight is coming off the secret is no snacks, drink lots of water and have a prize in mind for the end result !

great job!

try honey and sliced banana

try this instead of junk food have a bowl of oatmeal - it will fill you up and release energy over a period of time hopefully stopping the food cravings break your study into timed slots say 45minutes and at the end of each take a 10-15min break and go for a walk you may find this settles the bingeing good luck

I have found that not enough liquids ie water and I am more prone to being sleepy and will often fall asleep early if Im not hydrated - still working on finding the right level

I would tend to agree with Losingit2011's comment you seem to have a lot of sodium rich food - is that down to liking the taste or choosing products that the manufacturers are claiming to be "lite, low fat, fat free, good for you, healty option etc etc " as here is an observation they are none of that - the makers add salt…

HI there download the app C25K and start there - the rest will fall in behind it

try this one it works on fish, chicken, pork, lamb or rib-eye beef we take 2 tsps of chicken tikka, or rogan josh paste we coat the food with the paste and then leave it to marinade for 1hour then simply griddle in a pan with some spray oil not too high a heat as you want the food too cook not the sauce to burn then to…

Hi first of all great job so far have you tried changing your routine as some of the others have suggested ? review your food plan and switch things around - I never say I'm on a diet as a diet starts and ends , usually with a slip up like a nice cake or something, not that I'm saying thats your issue what do you do for…

if you speak to any nutritionist they want to see how much salt you consume for the afforementioned reasons too much salt causes problems for your system and can lead to artery blockages, and poor liver function I believe, it affects other organs and so it is better to select lower quantities - my nutritionist has advised…

yes we do the scary thing is what is a portion when you compare that to a percieved portion now i weigh most things out and then use them as a reality check to ask myself do i need to eat it ?

every day - I walk for at least 30 mins 3 times a week I am running using the "c25k" app on my phone to teach me timings ( your own personal trainer without the costs) and I now choose stairs over lifts/elevators - walk the dog on top man with a plan! thats my motto good luck and add as a friend if you want to chat :wink:

Hi I just read your post - can i say you are not alone there are others out here just like you so welcome first thing take your time set some goals up take some measurements start by using the plan to keep an honest diary of your intake - do this for 2 weeks - you will amaze yourself by discovering just how far out your…

Where are you obtaining your body fat percentage figure from? sounds like something does not add up ? have you had someone else calculate the figures for you ??
