Sounds great. I love squash soup. You can add sweet potato or red pepper and it's equally tasty! Thanks for sharing x

Healthy Cooked Breakfast 1 tomato, halved and grilled 1 egg, poached 2 rashers bacon, grilled 1 portabello mushroom/2 closed cup mushrooms, grilled 1 slice toast with low fat spread This is just a 'stick it under the grill' job.

...speaking of bright sparks, I just asked my mum about this as she used to work in Gynaecology. She said that you can put weight on when you ovulate too - up to 7lb in some cases! Hope this helps.

Thanks all of you, I thought I had heard it somewhere. Reassuring to know that other people don't log their gain either, and instead weigh themselves when they're back to their 'true' weight. I have been so restrained with my eating this week - I was really hungry just before my TOM, but made sure I was still under my…

STICK WITH IT! You won't regret it, I promise!! I have a few suggestions - don't weigh in so regularly - it can be very counterproductive, because as somebody has already mentioned your weight fluctuates naturally depending on time of day and other factors, and therefore weighing yourself too regularly is more likely to…

I thought that eggs were full of 'good' cholesterol; High density lipoproteins (HDL), and my understanding is that HDL cholesterol can actually reduce your overall cholesterol levels and make for a healthier life by taking the cholesterol away from your heart and arterial plaques to the liver where it can be excreted…

Welcome to MFP guys! I'm sure you'll find everyone is really friendly and helpful, and if you ever want any advice, the people on here are amazing! I joined a while ago, but fell off the wagon in about October/November last year. My New Years resolution was to get back on track and start losing weight, so I'm back with a…

Awwwww, hope you soon feel better, sounds like you've had a really rough time of it for the past month or so. Just a thought, when I'm feeling unwell, my body doesn't like to exercise, and when I get my appetite back I crave lots of things that aren't great nutrionally. I think possibly it's because sometimes your body…

Hi guys, I'm another Brit plagued by confusing measurements, hehe. If any of you are looking for low cal/low fat recipes the weight watchers cooksmart and cook yourself thin books are good. How do I make my diary public? It's a bit shameful at the moment and I've had a bad week for missing breakfasts, but just for future…
