How did you deal with it? do you still struggle with any body image issues?

Am I doomed to go back to my old weight?
My high weight was 125kilos, and now I'm around 120-121.5kilos. I feel like I will have to hit 125 kilos or higher before my weight will start going down, because last year, I got my weight down to 116 kilos and it's been bouncing around. I know it sounds stupid, and it probably nonsense, but I just need confirmation of…

Any suggestions for a low calorie/average calorie curry?
I want a medium/hot curry that I can eat with greek yoghurt (lots but on the side). Please, nothing with too many ingrediants.

How have you gotten past an ''all or nothing'' mindset?
It's something I've struggled with forever. Either I do something perfectly, or I don't do it at all... so mostly I don't get anything done. -It's giving up on your diet by Tuesday because you didn't do perfectly on Monday -Eating the whole pizza because you accidentily had two pieces -Restarting your life goals over and…

What can I do instead of the xtrainer?
I've been given 10 minutes at level 6 (out of 20 levels) on the xtrainer (elliptical), at the gym, and I HATE it. What can I do instead, to get similar results? 20 minutes on the treadmill? 20 minutes on the bike? Once I've done that, I'm free to lift weights :) Thanks

Not getting full
I've been eating like crazy for the last two days, and haven't been getting full. I've been quite busy. One day, I had 900+ calories to spare, so I ate some of them back, but then the next two days, I kept getting the munchies. I thought I was eating enough protein (because protein is fulling right?). I haven't been eating…

Is it bad to drink soda every day?
I've started drinking one can of soda (pepsi max/diet coke etc), once a day, as a treat, since most foods are off limit. Sometimes it's hard to stop at once. And also you mostly hear about people trying to QUIT soda, out of health reasons. Is it ok to have this one vice, or should I avoid it completely?

Having a treat 1/2x a week and peoples reactions to it
How can I get my mum off my back for occasionally having treats? I wanted a caramel sundae from McDonalds the other day (and I had earnt it), but she said it was a waste of a workout and not to. Sometimes I feel like having a piece or two of pizza (this coming from the girl who used to eat two whole pizzas by herself, plus…

Do you still eat things with added salt?
I love crisps, crackers etc, but they must have so much salt added. It can't be good for you!!! Not sure if they can be eaten in moderation.

I keep running out of calories
-please don't check my food diary, there's nothing in there at the moment When I use my food diary, I run out of calories really quickly. I loved Weight Watchers when I was on it, because there were lots of ''0'' foods that I could stock up on when I had used all of my calorie allowance for the day. I am trying to have…

Bakeries
Occassionally, I like to go to the Bakery with my sister. While we are there, we like to get hot chips with chicken salt on them (mmm chicken salt), a sandwich or two and a soda. I have tried the deep fried chicken a few times, but it isn't anywhere near as good as kfc. I haven't been able to find the calories available…

Do you bother eating foods etc that you can't find the calories for?
...? for example, getting a sandwich when you go out, stopping for random sushi (seriously, what is in it these days? theres like 50 different kinds, and they've started adding sauces, deep fried meat etc), Chinese, Indian etc...? if something isn't from a chain restaurant it seems hard to know what to put down for your…

I feel like eating all hours of the day. Help!
I think I'm suffering from mouth hunger. I'm close to the fridge all day, and am always looking for things to eat. Maybe I'm not eating enough protein? (don't bother checking my food diary, it's pretty much empty). I'm thinking, maybe I need more to do with my day? like spend time outside of the home? I'm not used to…

Did you ever feel resistance to exercising?
Whenever I think of going for a walk or going to the gym, I feel this big mental block or resistance to doing it, like this big fear. I don't know where it's coming from. I also hate putting on shoes to do exercise in. I hate inclosed shoes, but you have to wear them at the gym, and my feet get sure when I'm walking if I…

Did you have trouble breathing/swallowing at your highest weight?
I am a mouth breather. I have trouble breathing, and swallowing at my current weight. I often feel like I am choking. Was that ever normal for you? My neck is about 17in, I read somewhere online it should be about 13.5in. Is that true? Did you see/feel much of an improvement after losing weight?

Being called a troll
Sorry, I tried to create this in the ''technical help/need support'' board but I couldn't find the create button. People keep accusing me of being a troll because they don't like my threads. They have said it after I said I had Aspergers, and for other random things. I find this offensive and annoying. Is there anything I…

Want to lose more than 2 lbs a week
I am 120.5 kilos. I have set myfitnesspal to lose 2 pounds of weight a week. Since I am so heavy, I think I should be able to lose 1.5-3 kilos a week to start off with. (3.3lb-6.6). In New Zealand, they say a healthy amount of weight to lose a week is 1-2 kilos (I think) (2.2-4.4lbs) What do you think? If this is true,…

Calories seems to have gone down
I have recently put on about 5 kilos. When I started tracking, I seemed to have more calories to play with. I had about 550 calories for breakfast and about 330 for lunch, and now I only have about 400 left? I thought I would have more than that?
