Thank you so much for the ideas!!!

Oh I love that idea! How did you make them into sorbet?! Amazing!

Water :)

I've always disliked lollies (excluding chocolate) and soft drinks (sodas). I'm super grateful about this because that's usually what's served at parties and things.. it's super easy to turn it down when you don't enjoy it! I also dislike cream-based sauces such as carbonara (and they really hurt my stomach), and I don't…

Ahh.. eggs! One of my favourite morning breakfasts is poached eggs on toast with avocado. Divine!! I think seeing this post has convinced me to incorporate eggs into breakky tomorrow. :)

You should try blended frozen bananas! Of course, indulge from time to time but it's a nice, healthy way to get some fruit in and it actually tastes like ice cream!!!

I generally find that I need to eat breakfast before I workout otherwise I feel the same; lack of energy etc. However I usually eat breakfast and then go and workout, so there's about a 2 hour gap (or so) in between. :)

1. Worried I'll get worse again 2. Anxiety 3. Feeling full 4. Eating 'bad/junk' food 5. Eating out/away from home

SERIOUSLY you NEED to search Blogilates on Youtube. Great for toning and overall fitness. x

^^ Love this! I must admit, I was a little biased before heading into my gym and being instructed by a slightly overweight lady. She teaches Pump (and Step too apparently) and MAN is she knowledgeable and really caring towards her students! I did a Pump class with her today and she took the time to make sure all…

Indulging from time to time is totally okay! However there's an awesome recipe from Pilates teacher Cassey Ho in this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5fyKMsgY-g Cake without any guilt!

I absolutely love oatmeal, the old-fashioned, cook on the stove kind. I love it! So delicious and definitely filling! I add chia and flax seeds, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, allbran and sultanas:)

Another Aussie here! :)

Hi! Thanks so much for the explanation. I just checked my settings and it says that that area was already disabled, so that's good. In regards to where you mentioned selecting a non-exercise activity level "Sedentary", do you know how to set this? I'm not sure whether I've actually put in anything for this yet. Thanks :)

Oh! So it means that your constantly burning calories to keep you alive, however these can be increased when you do exercise? And that's when the adjustment comes up on MFP? Thanks for responding :)

Oh, thanks heaps! So you're essentially saying that it won't make the adjustment onto MFP until that calculation is made? Thanks again, I really appreciate the help!

Sorry for such a basic question, but I just got my fitbit today.. how exactly do you 'sync' your fitbit and why do you do it? Thanks:)

Bump!

Melbournite here!

Me!!! Excited to see people from Aus! I'm from Vic :)

I know you probably know this already, but just want to remind you that 'fat' isn't necessarily the enemy. Fat is actually really important for our everyday function! :) Looking at your diary, it looks like you don't really need to be concerned too much about lowering your fat. But I admire you for wanting to eat…

I've noticed this also! It's a fantastic community :)

I'm a total morning person, so I LOVE my mornings. I usually get up and slowly get dressed (or sometimes, I just stay in my PJs for a while) and I prepare breakfast. This is seriously like my happy time during the day haha! I really enjoy breakfast; I'm usually up before anyone else in the house and it's just my quiet…

Hi Steph! I'm new as well! :) Good luck on your journey and if you need a friend on here, feel free to add me! :) Hope you enjoy the site. I've been really enjoying it so far! Haylie

Thanks so much! Yes, I've seen a bunch of different flavoured ones and was wondering whether that may mean there were extra calories involved. Thanks again :)

Hi there! I think it's important for you to continue eating healthy foods to up your calorie intake. Try eating some healthy calorie-dense foods, such as dates. They're really good for you and have good levels of soluble fiber, assist in bone health and are great for your digestive system. They're useful if you're not too…

Thanks so much for the tips and suggestions :) will definitely keep them in mind.

Hi Ben! Thanks for responding. There's definitely been a few recipes that I've seen that incorporate protein powder, so I suppose I was wondering whether it was something I should have on hand. That being said, I wouldn't even know where to start or what brands to look! I suppose that's where I have to do more research.…

Thanks so much for the explanation! I suppose I got confused and wondered if it was something I should definitely be incorporating into my diet because there are SO many recipes out there, whether it be 'healthy' muffins or smoothies that have protein powder in them. I'll definitely make sure I'm getting enough protein in…
