Get yourself fitted for a new bra and wear a t-shirt that fits then post again and I reckon you'll really be able to tell. But I agree your face is definitely slimmer

I started at 220lbs and now at 190 so similar to you :)
-
I do this too, but I exercise every day to up my limit from 1200 to 1700.

I used to go to Sports Direct when in the UK, Cheap too

What time is your lunchbreak at work? Surely not 10.30? I would attempt to change your mealtimes. I get up at 6.30, but don't at my breakfast til 8.30. I then have lunch about 12.30-1, a coffee or snack mid afternoon then a big meal at about 8.30pm!

Umm an untreated underactive thyroid can make you obese! I went from steadily maintaining a healthy weight to putting on 5 stone before I got my meds! Now on my meds I have lost nearly half of it so far! I really don't think you should spout this stuff that you obviously know nothing about. I lost control of my weight…
-
I think it depends on how much they went up by when the weight went on, at my goal weight I was 32G, Highest size was 38GG, currently at 36HH. So i have lost a back size, but gained 2 cup sizes!! Anyone want them??

I bought some cheap cycling shorts, does help as they are padded! Otherwise you do get used to it!!
-
I'd maybe just try to find active things you can do together, but that don't seem too like you are forcing her to workout! Maybe instead of lap swimming try to find a pool with slides etc so there will be a lot of running up the stairs, ice skating? Dance sounds good too, horseriding? I hated things like netball and…

You may have seen obese people run marathons, but that is not to say they have poor nutrition and lifestyle choices. In fact how can they have bad lifestyle choices with all the training marathon running requires. There are sometimes other reasons for obesity than poor nutrition and lifestyle choices.

It can massively depend on the person! I am short at 5ft 2 and my highest weight was 15 stone 10, this was a 16/18 for me (UK). I am now 13 stone 8, and a small 14. In fact 14 tops fit well, my 14 jeans are far too big!
-
Can't believe people throw food away that has been made or bought by others - that is just plain rude. It is not that difficult to say no thanks!
-
Wow!! Well that is seriously impressive! I will have to invest in one. I workout as hard as I can and do things like spinning and body attack, combat etc. I use the MFP estimates, and have no real idea how accurate they are for me! I too sweat like crazy and everything has to go straight in the wash!! In that case then I…

I do want to be fit, I am doing a lot of exercise, weights 3 x per week then cardio every day, with my Sunday being a bit of a rest day something like an hours swim and a walk to the pool and back. So like I say I am eating much more than 1200 cals, some days I eat more than 2000 too, if its a day where I go to pilates at…
-
What sort of things to you do with your 1 year old, do you do active play? I find that if an exercise makes me ache, that I will likely have held onto a bit of water. Keep your fluids up.
-
I slice of pizza at 250 cals would be nowhere near enough dinner for me, I need at least 500 cals
-
Do you have an HRM as I feel there is a possibility that you are overestimating your cals burned in exercise. We weigh similar amounts and I log Zumba as dancing aerobic, modern, ballet or twist, and I get 378 cals. The reason I do this is that I also go to aerobics classes such as Body Combat or Attack, I log those as…
-
How much do you net? I eat around 1800, but net 1200 and I found that a little bit of a strain! I know you're male but 3000 is a lot to net!
-
I think I might try 1.5lbs then for a week and see how I feel. I had wanted a decent loss as we go away in just over 3 weeks, but I was feeling like I was too weak at times which can't be good! Thanks everyone!
-
I had over 70lbs to lose initially. I have lost 28. Whether 150lbs is still too big for my 5ft2 frame I'm not sure. I looked good at that size previously as I am curvy. So to get to 150ish I still have nearly 40 to go, may well be more than that though. Always looking for more friends!
-
I started at 220lbs, I am 5ft 2. I have hypothyroidism that was untreated for years. I try to stick to 1200 net calories, so i eat every single one of my exercise calories at that level, however I usually allow myself one day where I eat at a 1lb a week level (1600 net), or even maintenance so that I can still socialise, I…

Great thankyou, where in Asia are you?
-
Just added you, I live in Melbourne too, although I am British!

It is ok for men to say they like breasts you know.... That doesn't make them a jerk, it makes them a man! I think most females like to keep their breasts too. Perky or not I would hate to have small breasts, luckily it will never happen to me
-
I am a little heavier than you at about 90kg, I aim to lose 1lb a week as I find 2lb too restrictive. I literally lose 1lb a week, maybe slightly more. My ratio is similar to the recommended food pyramid, plenty of healthy carbs and then lean protein and very minimal fats!
-
There is absolutely no need to ever wear multiple sports bras! Brands like Freya, Elomi and Shock absorber all go really big! I am in a HH cup and I would never need to wear 2 together. Go to a shop for bigger bras, try one on and have a good jump about, I am the correct size in Shock Absorber and they go NOWHERE!!
-
Depends how top heavy you are, I am a 36HH and get on well with shock absorber but the Freya and Elomi underwired ones are good too
-
Always up for friends too!! I have nearly 50lb left to go so long slog!!
-
There is such a lot of incorrect information on this around. I have used this quite successfully to help me lose weight. It is an easy plan to follow, you ge a calorie allowance and a fat allowance per meal alloated based on weight and activity, mine is 1800 cals and 19g of fat. Now this 19g of fat has to account for…
-
Not sure why people at anything less than an E would want a reduction? I am currently at HH, still don't think worthy of a reduction but if I felt I needed it I would go to a DD. Would be perfect size I think.
