there are many factors that affect weight, stress,menstruation, muscle building though exercise, you might be intolerant to something and you become swollen, water retention, illness, constipation...... what i do personally is weight myself everyday when i wake up on an empty stomach and observe the numbers but don't go…

cheese!!!! any kind, i just love the stuff so i made homemade cream cheese out of yogurt which calms my cravings but is low in calories and fat. for anyone interested, i discovered it accidentally, i make my own yogurt but it's usually very runny so i strained it with muslin cloth and a colander and the next morning i…

you look great!, but i think anybody should feel free to wear whatever they like, people do look but they forget one second later and besides it's usually because of their mental hang ups. i like looking at people to challenge my insecurities. i.e. those little folds under the bra strap, actually even skinny people have…

bubsnoble,this is a bit off topic, i'm a bit shy to ask......but who's the hunk on your profile picture? :blushing:

249 pounds trying to get down to 160, just started last week, my aim is to lose 3 to 4 pounds a week (3 to 4 pounds is my normal rate when i eat properly and exercise). i'm of an athletic build and carry most of my weight on the bottom half, thunder thighs ahoy. this is my second and last time trying to get rid of the…

sugar on my coffee and tea, baked goods with the exception of a slice of bread(once in a while) and crisp bread, mayo except once in a while with really low cal. food i.e.white asparagus, chips, cheese (very little), waitrose moroccan houmus ( i logged it and was shocked at how much fat it has)....i better stop writting…

i used to watch extreme makeover weightloss edition, i'm not really into reality tv but when i see people twice my size working out like that it gives me that extra push of thinking" if they are way heavier and can do it, so can i". I lost 27 kg/59 pounds in about 4 months with the dissociated diet ( never eat carbs and…

wow, thanks for all the replies; it seems oats and eggs reign supreme in the breakfast championship . I've gathered some nice inspiration from your replies so thanks again!!:smile:

does either of them take into account your height and weight? the more you weight, the more calories you burn, besides that different systems come up with different results, my stationary bike says i burnt 200 cal and mfp says 264, i just do the exercise to become healthier ( better circulation)and to build muscle (because…

people keeps hoping for shortcuts that's why they are dissapointed. Nowadays evrything is quick, quick, want it now get it now, so perseverance and discipline are alien concepts and on top of that companies have been making millions since the 50's selling us the dream that a pill will fix everything so they think "find the…

thanks for the suggestion unfortunately i dont't find them filling enough as it's already processed it takes less time to digest and also chewing it's necessary for your brain having enough time to send the full signal to your stomach.

thank you very much, i'll try the pancakes, i miss pancakes.....and i forgot i have chia seeds in my pantry so i'll defenitively try that. here's some ifo for those who are not familiar with chia. Chia seeds are harvested from the Salvia hispanica plant, a type of sage in the mint family they were a staple of the ancient…

awesome, thanks for the info. I have to say that i have always eaten breakfast though, i'm not sure why it's come across like i don't. i just need ideas cos bread, pancakes and french toast have no place in a diet ( too much fat and sugar) and i'm bored with the scrambled eggs. thanks everybody!!
