I log my walking as I generally walk 3.5 - 4mph everytime. I don't dawdle. :P and it feels like a workout, even 20 minutes to the supermarket! Housework I don't log generally unless I'm doing a big clean through the whole house which doesn't happen often, just little bits here and there.

Good luck! I'm on my 8th day cold turkey. Decided a couple of week in advance I was gonna do it so I could prepare myself/start cutting down. Worked so far. :D

I hate it! Why put a horse down just because it won't make you money anymore? There's plenty of places that would tale on these poor horses. Some people...

I'm in hairdressing and music so its not a problem for me as it's all about fashion/image. I've had jobs that wouldn't let me show them and some that didn't care. To me it's not worth getting in an arguement over, if an employer sees you as a lesser person because you have tattoos then they aren't worth working for.

I just smile and take it with a pinch of salt. I know where I want to be and a passing comment isn't going to change my mind. Determination and motivation will get you where you want to be. Don't let people tale that away from you. Good luck x

40lbs lost and I always get cold. Find myself wrapping up in jumpers and hoodies, even under my coats when I go out, which I never used to do!

Go for it. Sometimes guys miss out big hints, even if they're right under their nose!

Definitely something to talk to your doctor about...

Good luck in losing! :) I would set your profile to 'lightly active' or 'active' because I guess you spend alot of time running around after your kids? :) Also to lose 1lb a week and do your 30 minute walk 5 days too, but gradually make the walks longer as you lose weight! If you've given up before it maybe because you…

False I've never been snowboarding.

I'm on 1640 and sometimes that's not enough. :huh: Make sure you're set to 'lightly active' (not everyone is completely sedentary, you must move around a bit everyday right?) and to lose 1lb a week. You'll have more calories to play with.

I don't like playing by the rules! :smokin: No carbs after lunch? I'd murder people...

I cannot understand how these people can say they are truely happy. They must be lying to themselves all the time! I was never morbidly obese but I was in the obese range for my height before I started losing. I was MISERABLE, everyday. I can't believe how much my mentality changed when I lost weight! I cannot agree with…

No but they don't have to eat what I want to eat. It used to be a problem because I never had the same meals etc. but they've got used to it now and actually try and encourage me to eat better when I'm having bad days.

Probably not strictly. I will still use MFP to keep me on track every now and then but I know that already the amount of time I've spent here that I can eat healthily and not log.

The last thing you want to do is give up! You don't want to do this all again! Think about what made you want to start in the first place and use that again as motivation! You've done an amazing job so far and you still had a loss of 4.5lbs, if I could have a loss like that again I'd be over the moon! Change your goal to…

Drinking, have a beer a few nights a week. Need to cut down! & smoking also doesn't fit in my new healthy lifestyle!

I was really bad with social anxiety for years. I'm getting better but sometimes some situations are overwhelming, I blush a lot when I talk to new people, sometimes I can't handle being at college because I become nervous for no reason. I found what helped me was when I started losing weight. Exercise helps so much, its…

Log and move on. I can't eat that stuff anymore, sits on my stomach, its rather disgusting to think about anymore. I make my own burgers. Omnom.

Pretty good. Workout 4-5 times a week, 1hr aerobic dance follwed by 30mins pilates. Just got to stop smoking and I think my physical condition will improve dramatically.

I'm on the same and I can agree! My cravings are uncontrollable on the off days! I can fend them off until the day before TOM arrives then there's no holding back to how much food I can eat! I don't think it has stopped me losing at all though.

Now my belly is one of the last places I have to lose from I have noticed that a lot of the problem is in the diet! I've started eating healthier and making smarter choices, where before I had been lazy about it, and I've found that the better I eat the more 'flat belly days' I have. Along with core exercises I have…

How tall are you? I'm 5'2"... At 148lbs I had set my goal to lose 1lb a week which gave me 1400 or so calories to eat before exercise so you may not be eating enough, especially if you're really hammering out the work outs. Make sure you log everything religiously for a week or two, making sure you correctly log, down to…

Anyone feel free to add me! Been here 2 years and have lost 3 stone! It's been a long journey so far but love to help keep others motivated! (i need the motivation more than anyone to be honest ;) )

Being ' cute' always worked to my advantage ;) My guy calls me cute but also sexy, beautiful, gorgeous. I don't know, I wouldn't be happy if I basically got told I'm too cute to have sex with :s that doesn't make sense.. o.O It could be a confidence thing if you say he's getting a little chubby while you're working on…

Make your own pizza? Will more likely taste better than a Dominoes anyway...

This! Always perfect everytime!

Bump for when I get on a computer! Thanks!

Not far from Newcastle :3 ill add you :)

I was vegetarian for a while, I did get a lot of criticism for it from some friends and family. Usually because I would always have to eat something different to everyone else. I never pushed it on anyone but I did offer to cook meals for people and they often turned their noses up at it for being meatless until they tried…
