I really like to see progress pics for people in my height range but it makes me wonder what i'll be when i lose some more, I started at 177lb and I am currently 162lb. I would like to think that I would be happy once i reached my initial goal of 147lb but I guess until i get there i wont know how i feel, I was 143 when i…

Mix 500g pot with 2 beaten eggs and the kind of vegetable you like suitable for a quiche, onions, mushrooms, peppers. Then add to a flan dish and pop in the oven at about 180' for 25 mins or until just turning golden on top. Great warm for a meal or cold as snacks, should make 4 decent portions or 6 snack. Really low cal…

A Sandwich Warburtons - Farmhouse Thick Sliced Soft White Bread, 2 slice Helman's - Light Mayonnaise, 1 Tbls Sainsbury's - Pork Lunch Tongue 1 slice 289 cals and keeps me satisfied for hours compared to cereals

Samiaa I thought you had a massive reefer your were lighting in your photo until i enlarged it!! haha Hope you enjoyed the snickers!

Well done on your loss so far :-) Do you feel any different during the day from when you started? As in you are more or less hungry, you feel more satisfied, want more carbs or sugar. Perhaps there is something subtle that your body can do without or wants and you've not yet noticed. If you weigh everyday it wouldn't take…

Coming in under your daily cals for the day might be your problem. You really do need to eat all the calories recommended and any exercise ones you gain. When i was eating too few cals i was feeling the same, i up my in take, my body responded and i fell much better about the whole thing. Keep trying but mix things up a…

I agree its about the brief adoring glances, also ever so slight touches of affection that just are not expected or required but done just because he wants to

Well don't you look just fantastic and very pleased with yourself (as you rightly should) Congratulations!!

Incredible!!! Absolutely brilliant, you look amazing and happy and you are a great success story.

Did you exercise before you tried to lose weight and start tracking. When i started on this journey i was losing very little and was up and down like you, i was exercising maybe 3/5 times a week. The scales were hardly doing anything. So i stopped exercising and just focused on eating well, i upped my cals as i was on a…

No Tv in my house since we moved a month ago and you know what?? I dont miss it at all, there really is life outside of whats on the box! We like to watch a dvd every so often in bed to just chill out. I just found that most things on tv were pretty depressing or too far fetched. Sometimes things that are really…

How long has your skin been bad, i tend to find if i had a bad patch of eating, like more than a few days, weeks, then go back to being really good and healthy my skin can get like this, something to do with all the toxins escaping i think!! Hopefully you will see an improvement soon and it'll be worth it

when i upped my cals from 1200 to just over 1400 my weight loss picked up momentum and it really worked for me and that was with out any exercise at all!

All the joys of motherhood i am one day looking forward too have just been replaced with this image instead.....I sneeze alot, whilst i have no current plans for kids i will savour dry knickers while i can!! ha ha

This is my topping of choice whenever i have them!!! One of our chains of pubs here do an awesome breakfast of pancakes, with just right cooked bacon and little jug of the syrup..... needless to say its 685 cals a portion !

Sandwiches..... I have recently found that a sandwich with a meat content (i like thin turkey ham 20cal a slice) and light mayonnaise is the only thing that i enjoy and keeps me satisfied....often until the early evening if i snack sensibly in between, leaving me a nice amount if cals for a hearty dinner and yummy snacks…

because i will never tire of chances to snuggle up to my mum on the sofa and her stroke my hair. also because i love everything cute and fluffly and they make me talk like a 5 year old

I sometimes actually think is is the way to do it!! If in doubt of people reactions and how supportive people will be. My bf is on and off with how supportive he is depending on his mood although id never be able to hide my effort to lose weight whilst living with him, other people, my step mum for example, it was good…

To me it tastes really buttery! Very random. I've only had it on crackerbread so its kind of been weird anyway...however i resisted whacking in on some digestives which i think would make an instant mini cheesecake and the sweetness of the biscuit might alter the overall taste. I certainly wouldn't buy it full price, thank…

your profile says you are female..... if you are following MFPs advice for calorie intake then its probably way out if they are basing it on your being a woman if you are actually as your initial post indicates a man!!

Maybe you are not eating enough, i was aiming for 1200 cal and exercising for a while with limited results. I then stopped the exercise and upped my cals to 1450 and ive lost a lot more since then. Everybodies body responds different and has different needs, try juggling the type of foods you eat around, i have only just…

all black with purple tights my preference. Good luck on the date!

Cynthia Nixon

she still lost quite a lot before it though so still some level of impressiveness there compared to many people who reach her weight and just give up!

thats super cool you must be really chuffed with yourself, well done and keep it up!

denial and avoidance!! My kind of thinking

hope you are ok Craig :-)
