How do you reward yourself when you reach a milestone?
I am 3lbs away from being 199lb. I started at 254 I can't ever remember being under 200 so to see that number change from a 2 to a 1 is a huge deal for me.

Hi All! I don't know about any of you but Friday and Saturday nights were always 'takeaway night' in my house. Does anyone else become a little more relaxed at the weekend or allow themselves a particular treat and if so, what is it? I have mine in front of me.

Healthy Foods - help from the 'experts' please :)
Hi, I am reading about a lot of people who are under their calorie intake but eating to what they feel is their body limit. Have you got any suggestions on how to make small changes to bump up calories without being seen as 'unhealthy'? Lets say that I had a bowl of muesli for breakfast with a boiled egg sandwich on…

Is it possible to lose 6 inches in ten days
Thoughts please? I measured 10 days ago (3 times, to make sure it was accurate), weighed in today and didn't lose anything and measured today and there was a total difference of 6inchs (done again 3 times) Is this possible or am I just a tape measure muppet?

Am I happy or not?
Just been on the scales and they have stayed the same when I have been really good! Not the kidding myself kinda good either but I am also on a mission to get into a specific pair of jeans that were a size too small.

Thunder Thighs and Heffer Hips!
Hiya, I have lost 3 stone before joining here and am now jumping back on the wagon.

What are you proud of today?
Sometimes the internal conversations we have can be quite negative and we don't realise we are doing good and have made positive empowering choices until it is right in front of our eyes...so post them!

Friends against weightloss??
Has anyone else noticed that their friends are all really excited for you when you say you are going to lose weight and then the moment you actually DO start to lose the weight they are the ones trying to get you to 'be naughty' or accuse you of 'changing' etc??? Or do I just have rubbish mates? Ha
