  • Hi all, I am also interested in becoming a vegan. First a little history over my eating habbits which are the only thing holding me back. I am 33 years old and live in the East Midlands in England. I have been vegetarian since I was 13. I stopped this for 2 years when I was 20 and then went back but wasn't a strict Vego…
  • wow, you look amazing and younger too!
  • Yeah I agree with the article posted by monicaloosesw...also, when I was at school I was told that their is a layer of sebum (oil) in the skin to protect the skin from bacteria and other nasties also acting as waterproof barrier. Water is very dense so I'd suspect it's very easy to dehydrate (lose water) I used to get the…
  • I had no idea that they were processed like that. I just thought they were a type of carrot but just smaller than the usual size. I used to buy these all the time. However, I have been cutting costs for a while now and always go for the normal size as thy are alot cheaper. Thanks for the info hun :-)
  • I am no expert but like to read nutritional books etc and have done some A Level Biology and Chemistry in the past. from what i recall, all foods are essentially broken down into their basic food groups during digestion: Macro nutrients: Fat (lipids), Protein (amino Acids) and carbohydrates (sugar- eg from strachs such as…
  • I'm 5'1" I find that being smaller means we have to work twice as hard to burn a high calorie rate and we're usually given lower calorie goal to stick to. Personally I find this hard to stick to 1200. I always eat not just that but my calories back from exercise. It is my first serious month at this though and feel im not…
  • I'm so happy for you! It must feel amazing when you do that!! Not long till you reach 50lbs thats AMAZING. You are a WARRIOR!!! Never taking your eye off that goal, its doing wonderful things for you. I bet Sascha loves it too, more walks!! x
  • Hello Kimi!! Well here's mine: 123.6lbs calves 14" thighs 21.5" 5ft 1" 28% BF My legs are very short, i'm sure my body is longer than them :-( My legs have toned up alot but haven't lost much fat :( From what i've been reading stats are so variable i don't think you'll get an accurate average-or one you can work with.…

  • Sorry I can't help Ceffy but I usually try Youtube or type the question in google for things i'm not sure about? I had this and now i'm running should really get it set up!

  • Yeah I can't stand misleading labels. Like when its "virtually fat free" but the sugar content is way higher than average and as sugar is empty Cal, if you don't burn that its gonna turn to fat. In Kellogs defence, they do taste nice and in my weaker moments I kinda like being lied to so I can indulge without the…
  • I'm def gonna remember this next time some ideot trys to get one over on me, putting me down to big themselves up!
  • I've experience something like this in the past and confused me also. All I can think of is that you have probably lost muscle mass since stopping exercise. Muscle weighs more than fat and it increases your metabolism so at first it would still be burning fat? I would like a more rounded and knowledgeable answer myself as…
  • Hiya, I have a pretty similar storey myself and have found that a positive frame of mind with the back up of supporting friends allows me to keep better focus of my goals. Have sent both a friend request :smile:
  • Jelous.com -they look amazing! Fantastic taste and no doubt style to go with it.This makes me want to work harder to fit in the nice clothes I used to wear.
  • Fantastic progress!! well done, and during such a stressful time of studying too. I'm so happy to have you as a friend-you are very inspiring. I would never have considered doing before pics as I have had such a low opinion of myself and was scared of bad comments. I have been same really, started MFP a while back but only…
  • Wow, just wanna thank everyone for their posts, this has been an education :happy: . I never even knew this existed. I have requested an invite and will be posting on pinterest v soon i hope!
  • I want to know, for those of who you were/are binge eaters or emotional eaters... how did you over come it? How did you get passed the temptations? Is it just about not doing it? Choosing not to? Is that all I can do is just suffer through it? I drink a lot of water and all the tips and tricks that people list about eating…
  • I think you should report this to the police, it is against the Data Protection Act 1998 (this is in England though). Further more I think you should contact the Gym owner and advise that you intend to go to the press about this. The gym's ethics are terrible with the fact that he has been able to get away with this…
  • I read that it was a free app for iphone in a magazine in the UK called Healthy Food Magazine. This website is truly amazing!! I'm SO glad I found it!!
