One day a week refuel meal/all you can eat
Would one day a week be a good idea to have an all you can eat buffet as in Chinese or pizza to refuel your body if you were finding it hard to eat more calories some days and do a lot of exercise?

Holiday help
In a few weeks I'm off to Dublin for a few days on my own and for the first time as well as going on a plane for the first time .

People who mean well but actually don't
Does anyone else get annoyed with friends and family who think they mean well with advice but it actually puts your defenses up and has the reverse effect?

doubting myself so much right nd ow
I've always trusted myself and listened to my body whilst losing the weight but now I'm struggling to maintain. My mind just isn't keeping in sync with my body. Been trying for a few months and sometimes I will feel ok and be positive about it but over recent weeks I've noticed my weight gaining a bit which has…

The biggest thing I miss about being obese ...add yours....
Is not caring what I ate or drank even though it was beyond bad for me . I've educated my brain to know calories and healthy eating and even though I would quite like some chocolate right now and have enough calories for it I'm thinking of all the pizza I consumed yesterday that needs to be worked off still :(

one thing I've recently learned that's important
I'm trying to maintain whilst upping calories whilst learning to not be ruled by the scales and this is hard work. Some days I am so frustrated that I can't do it when I could lose the weight so easily. The biggest thing I've realised is that to listen to ourselves and to our body and not to others who may mean well but…

change in taste?
Has anyone else had a change in what they love eating now compared to before? I was a big chocolate fan and alcohol but now that doesn't bother me at all. It's more the savoury stuff

I've slowly been upping my calories to try and maintain
Over recent weeks I've been upping my calories to try and maintain. I put on 2 lbs last week and I wasn't even close to what the calories should be.

Trying to maintain
So I don't want to lose any more weight as I'm now 8 and a half stone . I've had a total loss of 16 stone and 3 lbs in 56 weeks. I've stopped some of the exercise I was doing but am still very active to the extent that I am still loosing a pound each week the last few weeks. Whilst loosing weight I didn't get overly hungry…

Got a pasta craving
Don't know why but I'm really loving pasta at the moment,I will have my dinner which is portion controlled and then if there's any leftover from anywhere else will eat that too. I'm presuming it's because my body is in maintenance mode and needs the extra calories
