Oh absolutley! Was just a thought - I was drinking way more than just indulging a craving, I was just super surprised how not having it has affected me, I had heard it might but didn't realise it would be as much as it has. Whatever works for everyone :smile:

Hi, Just a thought - do you drink a lot of diet soft drink? I was drinking LOADS (and have done for years) and was constantly hungry, I mean ridiculously hungry . I am at 3 weeks today with none and it has literally changed my life, my appetite is a whole different story.

I just googled it and you don't need to eat 30 Banana's in a day....:laugh: www.morningbanana.com (if this is the one that you mean??)

I take Green Tea capsules every day! I don't like the taste of the actual tea, so prefer to take it in capsule form. I was taking a mix of Green Tea and other things, but they were very high in caffeine and they would make me super jittery! I would come home from the gym tired, but my brain was still awake and buzzing - I…

I eat alot of Eggs too... I watched a TV show not long ago where they did tests on people who ate lots of eggs and it showed that it made no difference to cholesterol levels. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/7882850.stm - I found this article, but there are plenty more out there. If I scramble eggs I do usually only eat one…

Zumba is great but it really depends on your teacher. (It does here in the UK anyway - Teachers get a Zumab Qualification and then make up there own routines, so it depends on how good your teacher is and there background - Dance, Aerobics etc.) I love Body Combat aswell! :smile:

Exactly!! I am going to go in the morning so hopefully it will keep me entertained on the Elliptical for a while - I tend to "day dream" into the story when I am reading a book so I hope it will be the same with the Audio Book....and my legs remember to keep moving :laugh:

I am SO moving my scale all over the house tomorrow morning....and going with the lowest weight I can find :laugh: (I'm not laughing at you....I do know how you feel! My scale needs to be smashed up and thrown away :grumble:)

Thank you....I wanted to get back into double Gym sessions and am so so bored with the same old music to work out to and I had never thought about Audio Books! :flowerforyou: I just downloaded a 19 hour audio book - not free unfortunately, £14.95 (iTunes is so expensive :frown: !!) but for 19 hours it means that I will…

Yep, it's that "skinny fat" thing that I have heard people talking about, you weigh or almost weigh what you want to, but there is still loads of fat to contend with.... I bought the New Rules of Lifting for Women this week, thought this might help....but if truth be told, using the weight section of my gym totally…

Yes, you're right - I have started more on the Planks/Crunches etc. this week....so hopefully will start to see some improvement along with the Cardio! I'm trying to steer clear of the foods you mention....trying!! :smile:

I know what you mean.... I went to a fairly expensive hairdresser here in the UK (got vouchers as a gift, could never afford it normally :laugh: ) and I said that I was washing my hair after every workout. He told me that I didn't need to, that I could do it every other day!! I see girls in the change rooms at the gym who…

I am sure everyone is going to tell you that you can't "spot reduce" and it's true...you can't!! I feel your pain though, I am EXACTLY the same - tidgy tiny arms and legs and carry the whole lot in the middle! It's getting smaller but not a rate that I would like...!! I don't actually know how much more cardio I can do…

Green Olives Feta Cheese Salad Leaves Pak Choi Brussel Sprouts Garlic Orange Marmalade Light Margarine Lemon Juice Last night's Broccoli in Oyster Sauce ....I need to go Grocery Shopping :laugh:

AGREED!! Anyone else feel really good some days and then you get on the scale only to have it tell you that you're wrong, you're not feeling what you think you're feeling? Some days I get on convinced i'm lighter, every bit of me is telling me that i'm heading in the right direction but then BAM that damn scale brings you…

Itsu Frozen Yoghurt is YUMM!! And quiet low calorie if you steer clear of the yummy caramel and nutty sauces! I like the sound of the Salmon and Tuna Tartare as well...haven't seen this in our local Itsu! (and just for the record, Quinoa is YUM - have never tried making it myself though and yes, it does look like Budgie…

I live in the UK and went to the Olympic Stadium last week... If you want to buy Fries/Chips without anything else, you can only buy them at McD's - you can buy Fish and Chips together from other vendors, but you can't buy Fries seperatley unless you go to McD's. If you want Chocolate you can only buy Cadbury's and when it…

I am in the UK and although I don't follow her diet, I bought some of the Rosemary Conley Portion Pots online. I really like them for measuring out Pasta and Cereal and all sorts of stuff. They come in 4 different sizes for cooked and uncooked items and a card showing you the most commonly used foods and which colour to…

Exactly the same :flowerforyou:

When I started my weight loss journey I thought the same thing....I was drinking no water at all and just diet soda's so I didn't know how much was too much water - it freaked me out a bit too! I drink about 3L a day now and it's fine :smile:

Greek Yoghurt with some Flaxseed mixed in and a spoonful of honey, with a cup of tea! :smile:

I am starting this tomorrow in one of the back stairwells at work!! I still can't do a proper push up :sad:, only girlie on my knees ones :embarassed: so I am going to start with one step at a time till I get to the bottom and can do them on the floor!!

Log it....You're doing this because you want to make a change, so you need to be truthful with yourself, even when you do slip up! Don't stress it - we have all done it and will continue to do it, but at least if you log it you are being honest and when you look back you will see the changes you have since made and how far…
