Ouch! Done - lost count though, so I think it was about 220 ish I got to, definitely more than 200!!

Ha Ha - I love it... my faves are the old ones - cottage cheese, hot dogs and ice cream (although not altogether on one plate!!) You are so right though, it is only through sensible eating and moving about a bit more that anyone can lose weight successfully and keep it off - faddy ideas are just hawked from phonies who…

Any excuse to have a little blue cheese is welcome - plus I love shredded chicken!! Thanks for sharing! :flowerforyou:

I love broccoli, steamed, then stir fried in olive oil with crushed chillies. Perfect over some plain pasta... yummy! :smile:
-
Bump. Thank you!!:flowerforyou:

I really enjoyed the characters and although there are definitely bits that are repetitive, overall - it is a fabulous modern version of beauty and the beast. Just enjoy it!!

What a fabulous transformation - you are certainly no longer the person you were!! You look so much younger too!! Well done, you deserve the smile you are wearing so proudly. :flowerforyou:

This!

No-one was born to be over-weight. It is the nature vs nurture - with nurture losing. Sorry - but that is the truth!
-
No regrets.

5ft and an important half an inch!!

Gorgeous!! I love your purple dress. Well done on a huge achievement so far!! x

I think king prawns are a good bet. I usually have a clear soup - prawn meat and sweetcorn. Basically though, this is a life-style change, so it is important to work "normal" eating into your routine!! Have a look at the calorie values for what you would like to eat - then work backwards for the day. You could plan to have…

Wow. Thank you so much for sharing. It is fantastic to see such a fabulous transformation - your topic title is spot on too - I could not have matched you to your before photo now!! Well done for all of your hard work - you look utterly amazing. :flowerforyou:

Do you have a Wii? I love my EA Sports Active Personal Trainer 2 - it uses a resistance band and an HRM so you can actively see the effort you are putting in during your workout. There are a variety of options- I like the 9 week programme, the "game" sets you differing exercises each day, targeting different body areas and…

I opted for a vegan lifestyle a few years ago - it started as a bit of an experiment, lasted for almost a year. I felt no healthier, came up against issues when trying to find places to eat out and smelled dreadful in the bottom burp department... :( In the end a pepperoni pizza called my name really loudly and overnight I…

A huge congratulations to you - you have done so well and your family is just gorgeous. How proud you must be of each other! Thank you for sharing, MFP is just the best place to be to improve our health, diet and fitness!!! :happy:

Dear 16 year old me - DO NOT GO ON A SILLY CRASH DIET, you will spend the rest of your life trying to repair the damage and trying to get back to the EXACT SAME WEIGHT AND SIZE you are now!!! You are not fat!!!! Love, me x
-
I agree with this - if you deny yourself you may end up binging big style - you want eat? Plan it and enjoy it! Good luck! :happy:
-
I have to say - you have done us all proud, you look amazing!! :happy:
-
thank you - you were just the success story I needed to read today. Well done!
-
Wow!
-
You are looking great! As a "shortie" at just over 5ft tall, I have struggled to see a difference in myself, I still cannot get my head around being able to fit into smaller clothes - it feels like a trick!! I have lost 30lbs so far - my starting weight was the same as yours, so thank you - you have made me realise how…
-
You look absolutely amazing!! Well done - you are a real poster-boy for MFP!!! :flowerforyou:

I have the opposite problem!! My hips/butt are reducing, but my waist and stomach aren't!! Tell me your secret please!! I am doing lots of circuit training that features intervals of squats / cardio / reverse crunches. :flowerforyou:
