bump keen to see ideas

I prob drink a wine to two a night and have gotten to habbit, then drink more in weekend. Have lost weight and happy with where am at, but now really want to reduce it big time. Having a Semi sober sept, haven't drunk all week and feel great. Having a cup of tea instead. The next two weekend have plans, so instead to set…

I love Banana Bread. However am in Australia and don't really have all the applesauces. Any ideas on what to replace that with? Or any applesauce is ok?

Thanks for this, am thinking of giving it up for month too, and then stick to vodka and soda and the odd cider. Wine and beer i drink to much of so will cut it. Going to be hard, but want the change. Anyone else planning on doing this and keen for a friend and support please feel free to add me.

Eric first, then Alcide, then sometimes Bill and Sam, the 4 of them now that would be heaven. Yeah Pam is great too

very true being prepared is the bigger key. Can be hard when so busy but makes such a difference and helps you get off track. Is there any way to factor in a small work out or walk or something as often then energises you more. The best thing i did was look at what was happening and instead of making excuses came up with…

Thanks for this post. Lately keep putting self down on you ate bad, why did you eat that, went to gym but didn't burn enough rah rah rah. I need to look more at what has made me proud. I plan to do this everyday instead of putting myself down for having some chocolate. Today I am proud have eaten really well so far, and…

I think it is called Chicken Larb, spicy chicken mince in lettuce cup and bit of salad, is really nice and low cals.

Haha, I saw a guy who must have been rehersing for his strip shows years ago. Doing twirls and taking of his imaginery hat of and staring at himself in the mirror. I found it very funny and put me off my weights as kept watching him and trying not to laugh. It was more of comedy than sexy.

Thanks, wow great results in 11 weeks woudl love that. Sounds good, am all for easy to do and easy meal plans, don't like it being to difficult and spend lots of all sorts of food. Are you able to let me know abit more about how the excercise works and did you find you got good support etc. Am thinking of joining in the…

Anyone??

Feel free to add me. Howwever i too am looking for motivation and help in return and happy to be a support but need it back. Nearly a year and doing well, but need motivation to keep on track and keep pushing

1. Egypt 2. Romania 3.Vietnam

Wow congrates what an amazing year. You are an inspiration. Thanks for sharing

I have been on MFP now for almost a year. Have lost alot of weight and dress sizes and shape has changed, am healthier fitter etc. Not quite where want to be but made a huge difference. All throughout have had cheat days and still had some bad days. I haven't totalty been ultra strict and not banned all things. For me this…

bump looks good,

I didn't as like you didn't want to take the picture see it or have a record of it. But now nearly a year on i really regret i think it would be great to see how far I've come, have few pics can compare, but would have like one in my gym gear or something. Once you start loosing take photos as i find something hard to see…

The scales didn't move for me for about 5 months, i kept on, and noticed changes, clothes fitting me and getting too big and people noticing it. Important to keep at it, push through it and know its the best thing for you.

You still get the cravings from time to time, and sometimes i do have the odd thing, and then realise it wasn't that great. I found over time i felt like my fav bad things less and less. When I have the feeling I really think about it and say do you really need it, will it really make you feel better. I often find…

yum, bump

Hyper crazy rough coat Jack Russell, Dozer is insane but love him to bits, and just rescued a Australian Terrior Cross Willow who is adorable, love them both and love they motivate me to excercise more as have to take them walking and they love it.

Sounds cool, tell me more about this app?

Yeah i have allowed some bad foods and cheat days and have lost alot of weight, yeah it has proably taken longer than if i had been stricter but have found i have stayed at it longer and as times has gone on i am more and more careful on what bad food i eat.

Feel free to add me, happy to give support and in return ask for the same, been on here nearly a year, but feel getting a little less motivated, need to keep it going,

Change it up and enjoy the nice weather. Start big walks /hikes, running, bike riding. Go to the park and can do circuits, even out in you own yard, tricipe dips, shuttle runs, lunges, squats. By a skipping rope and skip outside. You can do great excercise and still enjoy the outdoors. Don't always need a gym. Google some…

they are not for clothes. Mine was the cutest thing loved it. kept me up a night when it chewed through its wood. Have wanted to get another one, but don't know where to get one where i live now. I loved it when he took his dust baths.

Do youmean the little south american ones, i had way ages ago, was pretty cute. It was called Gizmo.

awesome pic by the way, very cute twins. I tell myself just do it, get out , and get it over and done with, you'll feel better afterwards. I remind myself i want to get healthy, do the excercise then sit on the couch. I also don't let myself think about not doing it.

Do it, will be best time in your life, do it now while you can, as one day it just won't be possilbe, don't have regrets and think back why didn't i do it. I packed up my whole life at 25 and moved to London for 2 yrs and turned into 4. Was able to work while there but was scary and only knew 1 person when moved. Was the…
