^^^ thats is the best feeling ever! My great thing was only a couple of week ago. I've only just moved house and I found myself squeezing between gaps of furniture that looked way too narrow for me! :) Plus, I'm also stronger now so I could do alot of the heavy lifting and not hurt myself :)

Hi there :) I'm 25 and 5'7, and at last check (which admittedly was over a month ago) I am at 163lbs, and want to get to 145...ish :) Feel free to add :D

7 - great smile :)

muscles! :)

I've gone through fits and starts, Right now it's been a couple of weeks, but the longest I've gone is 16 months....not by choice to begin with, then I just wanted to see how long I could go. I think that was definitely my limit ;)

Oooh, sounds good! Very tempted to try the almond milk with banana & protein. Thanks! :flowerforyou:

....anybody?

Whoa....that's alot of info to digest (pun intended) :laugh: Thanks heaps!!! :flowerforyou:

ham, pineapple and cheese chicken kiev with a spinach and mushroom salad...yummy! :wink:

I've been down that path before when I gained 10kg in a year after maintaining a great weight for ages. I lost my self confidence, and completely retreated into myself. It's not been until the last 3 months or so that I've finally kicked out of that depression and I'm ready to fight for a lighter body and healthier…

Wow!!!! You look amazing! Well done! I'm totally inspired now :love:

I have a pair of jeans that I bought from UCW a couple of years ago (I think I was 18-19), and they fit perfectly. Since then I've been working in a job where I sit on my butt all day, but 2 weeks ago I finally got back into them! It took a bit of manouvering, and the jeans dance, but I got them past my thighs and they…

24 from Adelaide! But 25 after this Saturday, so I still count??? :) Anyone feel free to add me, the more the merrier :D

I'm in south Adelaide (please don't hold that against me!) but anyone feel free to add me. It always helps motivation seeing how well others are doing :)

South Adelaide gal, born and bred :) would love to chat to fellow adelaideans!

7.....no 9 :)

I was doing ok until I went to my friends farm for her birthday a couple of weeks ago. For the road trip I took Milky Ways (4 fun size bags), and ate all of them over the course of 2 days... Had major sugar cravings after that and it was crazy hard to stop buying them...and now that halloween is here and fun size bags are…

well, I'm Australian, so insert stereotype weapon here > > > > > :) I go walking at 5am, but I guess I just figure I'll run faster if I have to

I was told this one by my granfather all my life and it was a LIE!!! Most devasting food myth :cry:

thanks everyone! really appreciate the advice :) I'll let you know in a few weeks how it goes. Wish me luck! :)

urbanhippieru: my calories are set at 1400 a day, but my BMR is about 1500, so I aim to eat that every day. That said, I've just realised that lately I've only been eating about 1300, because I'm just not that hungry. Can you recommend any pariculr high calorie foods that might help relive tiredness?

I'm currently 163, but I'd love to get down to 140-145. I was there a few years ago and felt great :) Oh and I'm 5'7 :)

I have a history of anemia, but i got tested only a few weeks ago, and while my iron was a little low, it's still well within "normal" range. I had a chat with my doc about it and he thinks that I might just have a naturally low hemoglobin. I've not had issues this noticeable for years, and that was when my iron was…

I heard the other day that there is a such thing as "dry mouth". some medications can cause it, and water is only a temporary fix. i don't know what the treatment would be, but i'm sure if you googled it you might get some answers. I also know that dry mouth isn't uncommon, as something like 80% of people who take regular…

Dear 16 year old self, Keep talking to Ben and don't let Sheridan get the best of you, you're more pretty than you think and she's just jealous Don't take Jesse to the formal, he'll ditch you and get drunk at the after party Answer your grandmothers letters because she won't be around to see you graduate from school Really…

This looks like a great mix to do. Might have to try it myself! :)

I work at a school, and it was when a parent came in to pay fees and congratulated me on being pregnant and asked when I was due. I was absolutely mortified, and my friend, who overheard the comment, just walked over and gave me a hug.

after I read the initial post on this thread, it got me thinking about BMR & TDEE and the simplest way to understand it found this great website that clearly says what they are and why it's important http://www.build-muscle-and-burn-fat.com/how-many-calories-should-i-eat-tdee.html be warned though, there are heaps of ads…

I didn't think my exercising and eating better were working for me, until I was dressing for work on Thursday (just gone) and my shorts were so loose I had to keep pulling them up :)

BMR: 1531 Goal: 1440 but I usually eat around 1500-1650 with exercise
