I've sent you a request :) I'm from Scotland!

I always do my chickpeas with chili, garlic and the juice of a whole squeezed lemon, sautee them on a high heat for a few minutes until they're just a little browned and the lemon juice and cooked off a bit. They heat up in the microwave really, really nicely and taste so freaking good! They're really nice with a pita…

I agree that people should look through the recent pages of the board before posting a thread they think has been posted before, but there's really no need to be SO judgmental. If the fact that people need help and advice when they're starting their diet or healthy lifestyle annoys you, ignore those posts, don't go through…

I love dried apple! Makes a nice change from having fresh fruit all the time :)
-
Wow, that puts it into perspective, must admit I am one of those people that moan about only losing 1-2lbs a week, don't think I'll go on about it as much after seeing this!

Thank you for the replies, although I may not want to hear it - I understand I should be eating at least the 1200 calories that MFP recommends. It's the fear of gaining any weight/not losing it quick enough that stops me from eating up to that 1200, silly, I know! But I'm under a lot of pressure at the minute to lose…
-
Can I invite you to expand on that maybe just a little?
-
Hahaha very sly! Thanks for the support :P
-
I'm slowly trying to increase my calories up to the recommended 1200, I just didn't want to do it too quickly in case my body had some kind of hissy fit haha. As far as the weighing myself every two days...I actually weigh myself every day, I'm absolutely terrible for it, all the women in my family are the same, it's like…

It does! I'm a massive fan of the Gube :P
-
I took this for some inspiration and made tortilla wraps with cod fillets marinated in the spices you recommended, threw some avocado and creme fraiche (low fat) in there and it was gorgeous! Feel like I could eat tacos every night and never get bored :P
-
All of this sounds soooo good! Will definitely be trying the green chili sauce enchiladas, they sound ridiculously nice!
-
LOVE Criminal Minds, a ridiculous amount. Hence the nickname Gubler :P After Matt Gray Gubler who plays Spencer Reid haha. I'm in the UK and we've just started to get adverts for the new Hannibal TV show and I am so freaking excited I could cry.. Also love CSI but only the original and I've recently gotten quite into The…

I'm 20, feel free to add me if you wanna put up with my (sometimes) senseless babbles haha

Hey! Welcome to MFP :) I used to do weight watchers too but found myself living on all of the ready meals etc so thought I'd try a different approach :P Hope you enjoy it here! x
-
Love the sound of that, I'm a sucker for apple pie so hopefully this will keep me satisfied when the craving hits, thanks!
-
I love quinoa with feta cheese, rocket, coriander, plum tomatoes and olives, all tossed together with a little olive oil :) you can put a little fresh chili in it too if you like some heat!

Daryl Dixon is how you get rid of a squirrel. (I'm gunna feel like an *kitten* if there's no walking dead fans on here haha)

You look amazing! Love the hair!

I'd definitely try and stay away from the sugary breakfast cereals, I know that if I start the day with anything too sugary I end up starving half an hour later. Try having some eggs, ham and cheese, something high protein/fat, I find it really, really helps keep you satisfied until lunch. But I agree with some of the…
-
Depends where you are I think...I'm in Scotland and definitely find that fresh fruit, veggies and meat are pretty expensive! But I'm a poor student haha...I buy frozen fruits and veg instead and buy my meat in bulk and freeze it :)
-
I tend not to worry about it too much (probably not the best advice I could offer, and I'll probably get slapped for saying it) I average around 500 to 900 calories a day, I'm not working out much just now because of a roller derby injury so I feel like I'm eating enough to sustain myself and lose weight. I'm also…

Try looking up Gammon (joint). it's the same thing and I logged it the other day, boiled without fat :)
-
I feel your pain, my uni exams are the end of this month and it seems that all I do is revise/exercise/think about food. I wonder sometimes if I'd be losing more weight if I wasn't dieting and vice versa :( It's all about finding a balance and not getting too stressed out about it all :)
-
@popsipop Good sense of humour :)

I have really deep set eyes that are quite big :)
