I'm not sure if what I go through would be classed as 'emotional eating' but it sounds like something similar. Every year around the time where I have lost someone close to me, for a week either side of the exact date I withdraw from everything / everyone and don't stick to my healthy eating and don't even exercise. I…

On my way to send a FR :smiley:

IMC I've not been to the gym for two days! :/

Really appreciate all the replies, I'm hopeful from reading comments on here and also reviews I've read online. I'm going to try and keep all I eat via the grill healthy however some great options from the sounds of it! @TheRoadDog , I appreciate the offer it was still there, however with me living in England it may be a…

Champion! I'm picking one up tonight after work and shall post how my chicken comes out, :smile:

Thanks, I've read a few reviews where they've said it wasn't hot enough also. Think I'll look at one with adjustable temperature controls. Hmmm, decisions.....

Newcastle-Upon-Tyne here :smile:

Waye aye! Sounds like a plan to me! :smiley:

(In Joey style from Friends) How you doing' :wink:

Happily :wink:

I'm still learning on the whole protein intake side of things, I'm confident working out and know my workout and what I need to work muscle wise. But my diet / nutrition side of things is the main downfall for myself. Slowly learning, but learning none-the-less. If I work with your ratio, with me being 158lbs, I'd be…

Thanks, I'm not looking at using these as meal replacements however hopefully these will boost my muscle growth. I eat well however feel I lack protein and am thinking this will help fill that gap. I'm going to order some and see how it goes. Hadn't heard of gonutrition before but will check them out, thanks.

I always dress smartly for work (shirt, shoes, trousers etc) even though we're able to dress down, my 'Ah-Ha' moment was when I started to notice that my shirts were getting tighter around my belly. I've never been overweight thankfully and was always skinny when growing up. However since I moved up to where I'm living now…

Whitney Houston - I Wanna Dance With Somebody

£17.99 for Lifestyle Fitness, open 6am - 9pm, all classes included. Great layout and vibe when I'm in there. The staff are excellent too. Used to pay £25 each session for a Personal Trainer but thought that was too expensive so stopped and research my own workout plans now.

Welcome back Tammy, I've been finding this site very helpful in keeping me motivated and driven. Hopefully you'll find the same and we can help you work towards your goal :smile:

Hot :wink:

I've recently signed up to the site to keep a journal of the food I consume, I wasn't aware there was a social aspect at first. I've slowly added people / they added me and seeing their posts daily about their own food journals / exercises helps me remain focused and dedicated. If I'm struggling with anything I'm receiving…

I'm an active member and am daily, always looking to motivate / support friends I've encountered and always willing to add people. :smile:

I keep telling myself that I'll approach some of the guys in my gym and ask them how they got their physique and any tips they could give me, however I feel that they wouldn't appreciate it and would just bat me off. I wish I had a 'gym buddy' as feel that I'd push myself even more with someone there kind of 'cheerleading'…

Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, England - Feel free to add me if you're looking for those who are on daily and are supportive! :smile:

Hi I'm Simon from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, England. I've only been here for 10 days so far and found it very helpful and supportive. Looking at losing my belly from drinking too much and eating too much crap. I'm finding that logging my food is definitely helping me and speaking with like-minded people is helping also. More…

Well done! Looking forward to when I get that comment or something similar :smile:

I've only recently signed up to MFP and on an 11 day streak, not too much but we all have to start somewhere. Sorry to hear that your husband hasn't been very supportive for your lifestyle change. It can be hard at times, majority of my friends are SUCH bad influences in and out of work. Outside of work they're always…

Ah, you mean Quad Biking? Terminology is similar but called something different over here. That looks awesome and would like to try it one day.

Welcome Jane :smile: , you've made the right decision signing up to MFP. I've found it to help me, albeit I've only been here for a short while. Those that I've befriended have been so supportive / motivational and want to offer that to others. I hope that you're recovery process from surgery comes quickly, but you're…

Hey Shauna, I'm from England and am looking for more like-minded people to offer support / motivation to. Joined this site and finding it so helpful, especially with those I've interacted with. I've sent a FR :smile: , just out of curiosity what's Quading? I've never heard of it before.

Hi Amy, I've sent a request, I'm new'ish on here and looking for like-minded people to help each other out on their journey. Some wonderful people on here who are extremely motivational & supportive and hope I'll be one of those.

I've added you as always looking for more like minded individuals. Hopefully we can help each other on our journey, :smile: , if anyone else would like to add me then feel free.

I've found this site is helping me track my food and receive motivation / support from my those I've befriended here on MFP. Tracking my food is something I've never done before and because I know I need to log it, I'm conciously eating better than I have done for a long time. I know it's a long road but I've started the…
