I have Coeliacs Disease and believe me being doubled over in pain, not being able to eat anything else (for the rest of the day if I happen to have something containing gluten), uncontrollable/explosive diarrhoea and feeling like I am going to throw up are not trendy nor is it welcome, I for one am not jumping on the band…

Personally I'd prefer to just eat ice cream and make it fit in with my day, ice cream has always been my biggest weakness and there's no way I will give it up for anyone - plus dairy produce is a good source of protein, so I don't substitute if for anything, low and non-fat varieties are usually available if you look…

20th February 2000 was the second best day of my life, the best was the 31st January 1996 (the birth of my daughter).... I got my decree absolute on the 20th February 2000, I couldn't have been happier.... I remarried on May 2005 and I know I got it right this time round. xXx

Age 41 Start Weight: 22st 13lb - 321lb - 145.6kg Current Weight 11st 3lb - 157lb - 71.2kg Start Date: 15th November 2014 Maintenance Date: 3rd November 2014 Best Strategy for losing weight: (1) Do it for you not anybody else (2) Learn portion control (3) Don't deny yourself the foods you love (4) Don't turn a bad day into…

I actually enjoy logging my food and measuring it, I do eyeball some things (usually veggies) but for the most part I weigh and measure everything, so I will continue to do so until I either forget or the scales break.... I will probably log for life as well, because I like to look back on my diary for inspiration when I'm…

I completely agree with Tavistock toad.... A - why don't you eat throughout the day? B - eat more calories, your body obviously needs them.... xXx

Absolutely outstanding my friend..... You look incredible, congratulations on your journey - you are an inspiration to everyone. Your words are very powerful too - thank you for sharing this with us, I too reached my healthy weight in September after 22 months of getting my life back, but I haven't lost anywhere near as…

Hi, The one thing you must do is get over the feelings of being hurt by your friend's words, she probably wasn't trying to be hurtful, after all, she spoke to your sister (if she was being spiteful, she wouldn't have said it to your sister, I'm sure) because as long as you're feeling hurt by the seemingly innocent comment…

If someone says to me they don't have time to work out, I respond by saying - well you obviously don't have time to lose weight then.... There is ALWAYS time to burn some calories, taking the stairs, getting off the bus a stop (or two) earlier, doing squats whilst waiting for the kettle to boil, or the fax machine to…

Nothing.... The only thing you should cut out of your diet is delusions - there is no such thing as bad food, just bad portion control, get to grips with portion control and do regular exercise and there is no need to change your diet. xXx

I'm not taking an exam, so I don't have cheat days.... I eat what I want, when I want it and it generally fits in with my numbers - not always, but oh well one higher calorie day here and there is not going to cause me to put 164lb back on. If people are looking at this as on or off thing, then they are setting themselves…

Being accused of not needing to be at the gym, because people like me (skinny - her words, not mine) are taking up the treadmills and not letting the big people get their turn.... I pointed out the the woman that I used to weigh 321lb (probably heavier than she is now) and that by eating better and going to the gym and…

I've lost 164lb eating pretty much what I want, when I want.... I ensure it fits into my calorie allowance every day and exercise daily to ensure I can have some extra calories (if they're needed) so I never go hungry. xXx

Calories can't tell the time, so it doesn't matter.... xXx

Hi weigh myself every Friday morning, but I only record my weight every fourth week, because I am almost at my goal weight and my weight fluctuates a lot so it can get very frustrating recording my weight too often. xXx

Sabotage can only happen if you let it happen.... One donut isn't going to make you fat anyway, so what harm is there in saying yes - just factor it into your day, or the rest of the week, by cutting back on something else. The other option is find a new husband, because the one you have is seriously defective - if my…

I started my journey on the 15th November 2012, weighing 321lb.... I hit ONEderland on the 22nd of January this year. No matter how far it may seem, you will get there if you just keep going.... I'm now only 3.75lb away from my 153lb goal weight. Never stop trying, because as long as you're trying - you're not failing.…

Lock the doors & lie down on the back seat, wait for day light, then go looking for help.... WWYD if you found a severed foot in your outside toilet....!?!

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit & wit is the highest form of intelligence.... So step aside ....Because a genius has just entered the room.... :drinker: xXx

40g Gluten Free Porridge Oats (Coeliac) 200ml Skimmed Milk 90g Banana 30g Shelled Hemp Peppermint Tea with 1 Hermeseta I have this virtually every morning, largely because I LOVE LOVE LOVE porridge & also because I like toast, but gluten free bread has the consistancy of wet sand & if you've ever tried to spread butter of…

Don't turn a bad day into a bad week.... I screw up at least once a week and I have still lost over 50% of my body weight in 22 months.... put it down to experience and move on - maybe cut back later in the day and save some calories that way, or go for a walk or do some other form of exercise. xXx

My mind keeps coming up with all these smutty things I really shouldn't type....!?! But I'm going to behave myself and say salted caramel chocolate, oh my even that sounds smutty..... I'm outta here before I get in trouble lol xXx

I didn't do any weight work until I'd lost about 4 stone (56lb) and now I still do more cardio than weight work, because to be honest I really don't enjoy it, I find it mind numbing.... But that is just me. I have seen some changes in my appearance since starting the weight work, whilst I was just doing cardio I was losing…

G.P referrals aren't actually free, they are concessionary.... But a good point in principle. She wants to live with PCOS, be Coeliacs and living on a tight budget.... How the heck does she afford all those brand named foods, not to mention the tattoos and piercings - I want more ink, but I can't afford it - maybe I should…
