Do you mean you're always under your calorie goal when you log? Because you wouldn't know if you're always under your calorie goal when you aren't logging. Those days you aren't logging could be hurting your progress, people naturally have poor judgement when it comes to visually judging food intake. You either need to…

I want chocolate.

If you can't motivate yourself, nobody else will be able to. But you just need to eat at a deficit to lose weight, exercise isn't necessary. I'd have thought the physical stuff involved in loading and unloading your truck would burn more than a few calories anyway. If you really want to exercise, see if you can find some…

Yep, definitely sounds like your diet is overly restrictive. Tell yourself you can't have something and you'll want it a whole lot more, we always want what we feel we can't have - it's human nature. Work into your diet the sort of food you're craving, eat it in moderation. That gain will be mainly water weight by the way,…

1) Heavy squats 2) Shake it all about 3) Eat well 4) Ask Nicki Minaj for further advice

Or try and get a business loan to buy the gym and run it yourself and become your own boss.

I can eat sugary food without then binging on them quite easily. This is just a long winded post about your own lack of self control and how you're trying to pass it off as something else rather than just admit you wanted the nice, tasty thing and then you wanted all of the nice, tasty things. Blaming sugar will teach you…

Nothing is more attractive than a girl who can help me win a quiz and actually care enough about my constant need to get things right to turn up and help me in the first place.

I have this problem, been told I may have 'body dysmorphia'. I panic at having my photo taken so it doesn't happen, someone tried to get my in their selfie and I almost sent them flying trying to break free of their deadly kung fu photo grip. I spend frequent amounts of time staring at my face in the mirror looking at…

The simple response to that would have been "And I never realised how much of a p**ck you are.", but that moment has gone.

So to sum up, you want to lose weight even though your picture shows someone who is very slim and you've got an ED, you insist you're 'doing everything right' but then follow that up saying you have a meal that's made by someone else and you are not weighing food. You're either a troll or you need more help with your ED,…

I believe this is basically the general French diet, eating something sweet for breakfast, a pastry of some sort.

Aww dang, I was going to say something like that. I'd say that response was a lot more serious and credible than the original post.

If you tried to lose that much, that quickly, you'd either end up in hospital or in a morgue.

Everyone registered on this site has had some sort of struggle, hence why they're on here. So if it helps, you've took a step in the right direction. Just to add, your metabolism wouldn't have slowed down, there'd be a whole wider range of issues at play if that were the case. It's just that as you said, your diet wasn't…

Whenever I'm cutting calories and make a mistake, have a lapse in judgement, over eat, etc I always seem to end up at 10:7 lbs.

Don't focus on not eating sugar, just focus on getting both what you need and want at the times that best suit you. Basically, you can fit in late night cupcakes if that's what you really want.

Quavers? And you call yourself a clean eater?! Skips are far superior.

I am from Northumberland, which isn't too far from Bradford - at least it isn't when I'm driving.

Fibre and iron for me.

Eating clean, detox, fear of sugar - I'm impressed. Now you just need to stop eating carbs after 18:00 and avoid gluten and you've got the full set of needless restrictions. You've got this.

That sounds ideal. Apparently in the event of a complete breakdown of society humanity would starve because not many people really know how to source food unless it's via a shop. Society has basically un-taught itself how to hunt, catch, kill and prepare.

Can you hunt, catch and grow your own food? Go on, try it - go hunting, go fishing, try growing some stuff.

A good rate of weight loss is 0.5 lbs a week. 6 lbs in three months is 2 lbs a month, which is 0.5 lbs a week. Sounds like you're actually doing well.

I was born in Scotland and have lived in Northumberland, England for most of my life. So British, I even have a union flag coloured woolly hat and mobile phone case to confirm my nationality.

Tabata session, google it - you can get it done in less than 20 minutes. It's basically cardio and weights so you'll burn a decent number of calories and still be burning them after. The time you have left you can use for stretching or for mopping up your own sweat.

What Sara said (great profile pic by the way Sara - clearly doing a great job), the important thing you should take from this though as that you're feeling better. This is a really important step to being the better you everyone on here wants to be. But for your own sake, you'll benefit even more from dropping this notion…
