damn... I'm going to look over this thread more often!

Gaining or loosing too quickly effects alot of things in the body, ranging from proper metabolism to skin elasticity. Slow and steady wins the race

Marshmallows! My sister opened up a pack last night and she shoved a handful towards me and I stayed strong! Just kept thinking 'I don't have the calories!!'

Do it for yourself, screw them! If they really cared they would be supporting you! From personal experience I got the same reception when I worked out at home and all my family did was critise me. When I started at a gym and results started showing they actually started to support me- which I found to be odd.

I would rather shift calories to lunch or snacks around that time, then keep them for later if I'm feeling hungry or (like today) unforeseen foods appear!

Agree with this, as a person rather then a woman if that makes sense.

honestly, I don't care. As long as they keep themselves in good condition, clean properly and trim hair in erm *cough* relevant places I don't care. Previous boyfriends and erm... friends, had both and I'll be honest it didn't seem to make it better or worse x3

When I go to the gym I've normally jsut rolled out of bed, tied my hair back thrown on my gym stuff and chucked back a protein shake. I look pretty terrible! But I don't care :D I go to sweat! If I went with makeup and my hair done it'd be pointless- I'm in first thing (7am for my gym) and normally don't meet anyone…

I've lost nearly four dress sizes on my top but hardly two on my lowerhalf- but it's cos I'm pear shaped! Narrow shoulders, wide hips and everything weight wise will go there. Accept that you're not hourglass, very few people are but most clothes are designed for, and work out how to make the most of your pear shape-…

I wanted to show you guys these especially after a scandal here, in the UK, after some of the athletes were called fat as they didn't conform to some kind of twiggy stereotype!

Ooooh you mean when we needed to start to loose the weight? lol misread that one! When I got out of the shower, saw myself in the mirror and told myself that I didn't want to look like that any more. I'm not at the end yet, I'm half way there and as you can see from what I said earlier, I'm feeling the benefits now :D

this! If I could afford one!

When I could run up a flight of stairs, gazelle like, without loosing my breathe for the first time! Also, when I could touch my toes without bending my knees! I've never been able to do it! Well until now >___<

There was an issue about this with a personal trainer at my gym. The female trainer was coaching a woman, and talking to her about nutritional things, the woman laughed in the trainer's face 'why should I take this from you? You're so fat!' She didn't know the trainer was two weeks away from going on maternity leave! As…

Though I don't get up as early as you but if I need a quick breakfast I tend to make up hot milk with whey protein, it keeps me through the morning. It works well with cold milk, or water, just that it's cooler here at the moment so something warm helps me go :D

I've loved all their series, especially when they chorused 'fat means flavour!' and my Mother would cringe. Their new approach though is very good and still has the Hairy Biker's essence still. From the ones we've tried so far I have to agree, the lasagna tastes amazing! Unfortunately my Mum bought the book along with two…

I play a mix of computer and 360, current laptop is a low spec so really just able to take minecraft at the moment but just got a Borderlands 2, amazing game!! :D

I always feel like I've got more energy for the rest of the day, that and it frees up the rest of the day, for me at least as I have to rely on buses!

How about reading proper literature?

I look at the other flavours they have at the shop and I'm like... would I enjoy that banana or strawberry? Or should I stick to the chocolate? Ah, chocolate again!

It is sad that they broke up over something like this- but some people are purely not ready for a commitment with a huge issue like this. True, she could have handled it better but also she didn't string the guy along. When my boyfriend (back when I was 18) came out as transexual to me I tried my best to cope with it (the…

Loosing 67lb is an achievement! Screw the photographs! If you feel better and slinkier that's what matters!

I like to kinda combine bums to make a super bum but it'll take a lot to make mine anything like that xD

That's amazing! Keep going! Soon it'll be a 1!

Yep, sitting pretty up here near Nottingham :D

I've got the implant, it was put in a month after I started and I had no real gain. As it was, as the name suggests, implanted the doctor did say no gyming for a week and when I did go back to do light or no weight training until everything settled. I lost but at a slower rate then I had before. I've been loosing nicely…

I find it easier to eat a good bulk of protein in powder form for breakfast then via say bacon and eggs- that and I'd say it's cheaper by the way I'd consume it in both financial and calorific terms. It takes a few minutes to make it up and I can drink it whilst getting ready for work or during a break whilst I'm working.

I've got Hollands & Barrat's own brand, Hard Core Series, in the chocolate version. I love it for breakfast, keeps me going for ages! Even as a snack it's like a hot chocolate :3 For breakfast I heat up about 200ml of milk in the microwave and then add a tad of sugar then 75g of the powder and mix it with a fork. As a…

I had severe pains with my periods too, but not to the extent of yours. After going to the doctor and we worked out that I basically lost two or three times as much blood as I should have. I couldn't have the pill, due to my weight, and opted to have the bar implant. I've only had three periods since (this was about ten…

bump the smart lady ^^
