LOL I'll just stand next to my desk and do some starjumps!! Thanks everyone for the replies. I agree that 1,200 is proabbly not enough but it was probably a good way to start me getting into the mindset of eating less. I will spend some proper time tongiht looking into that TDEE and BMR thing properly - never realy done…

Not eating enough food? You definitely don't have to starve to lose weight. Try bulking out your meals more with veggies and stuff, that way you should still feel a bit fuller whilst not compromising on too many calories. Good luck :)

Wow thanks for all the responses guys!! I can see all your points about alot of carbs/sugar. I'm a veggie so a little more difficult to get protein in. I'll google some good protein things I can add in for breakfast and snacks and try and balance it more and see how it goes. Thanks for so many replies and thought

Hey guys, thanks so far. Stats are as follows: Height 5' 5" Current Weight - 150 lbs Goal weight 126lbs I think I do eat healthily now. I am a vegetarian but do eat fish such as canned tuna/baked white fish. I don't really eat processed food. Although the occasional snack. I probably don't drink enough water or get enough…

Add me too :)

I'm in! This seems realistic for me, my aim will be to log honestly every day and not let my emotions abotage my food efforts. CW 151.4lbs 31st July GW - 146 lbs (keeping it realistic!!) :D Good luck everyone Winning 1 Binge monster: 0!

Anyone?

Wow, first off I'd like to say how blown away I am by all the amazing support and responses that are here. It's amazing to be a part of such a supportive community. So thank you so much for that. Secondly throughout this journey I've come to realise that I think I might suffer with an eating disorder. I'm not sure how you…

Kind of related, kind of unrelated question!! I'm going to try this tomorrow and take eggs for a snack, how do you transport them withot them smelling out your lunch bag? Do you leave them in their shells until you eat them?

Thank you for your input. I get one celebration meal a week so that was what the pizza and cake were. Do you have any suggestions how I could improve day to day?

Yeah I thought this after, it's my first banana in AAAAAGES!! It was yummy though haha

Another Bride to be here!! 14 weeks 6 days for me!! Bring on those bikini bods :D My main goal now is to reduce my body fat % and tone up. Any tips on the best way to do that would be very very much appreciated!!

Hey I'm 20 and vegetarian! Also possibly interested about becoming vegan at some point :)

For me it's Yoo Moo Frozen Yoghurt... i LOVE it, i am addicted :) I find Ice cream too heavy and creamy but i'd happily live off of natural Yoo moo!

Thanks for this, yeah I just want to go prepared with options!

^THIS, basically how I feel. I've had people recently telling me not to lose anymore weight, and while I realise it's a compliment, it doesn't make me feel any better! Anyway rant over. For the record I'm currently 144, and ideally want to be 126!

no no no!!! Not oatmeal!!! Dukan specifies oat BRAN. i buy mornflake 100% oat bran. It's essential it isn't oat meal!!! The mornflake comes in an orange tube.

Hey here's mine: SW: 178 CW 144 GW 139 UGW 126 Here's to May!!

I took this for a short while last year, I think I was on 20mg a day for about a month. I know this is a relatively low dose but for me, i piled on weight. Partly due to bad eating habits and lack of exercise too, can't ENTIRELY put it down to do steroids, but I definitely noticed a difficulty to lose weight, i'd be…

Hahahaha!! Don't worry at all - no offence taken, and for the record I have a VERY wobbly belly :laugh:

I agree it may not be for everyone, but it's worked for me. I've lost 34lbs on Dukan in about 4 months and am now on the "consolidation" phadse, and i'm focussing on toning up a litt.e I'd say give it a go and see if it works for you, if it does i think it's good as it is very simple

I'm in! Post stats on may 1st!

I'm 20, add me :)

I've never been on WW myself, but the fact you only got 18 points a day or whatever always confused me! I love MFP, everyone is so friendly, I have tons of questions that the forums are GREAT for! And i've been introduced to the 30 day shred and all sorts. It's great and it's free! Good luck!

^This. All the above exercised too! But I walk to the station every day for work which is uphill for about 20 mins, definitely feel it in my inner thighs! This is definitely my trouble area too.

Oh yeah I know, i don't eat nuts regularly and definitely not on a daily basis!

Wow thanks everyone! I just wanted to check because I know fruit and nuts can be somewhat of a grey area when it comes to weight loss. Can someone reccommend low carb/sugar fruits and veggies so I can make sure i'm not eating too much sugar!!

Yeah I guess you're right. I guess i'll just try and cut down on fruit and up the veggies!

I guess what I'm asking is, is the above enough moderation?

Would you mind checking my diary to see if i'm doing ok? I haven't lost weight in ages :( i'm stuck at 145.4
