Bland Food Diet
Hello! I have recently become ill with some gastro intestinal problems - similar to the symptoms of cyclical vomiting syndrome, but I'm having more tests done to rule out other issues. In the meantime, my doctor suggested going on a bland food diet. I'm just wondering what foods would be suitable, as I also lift a few…

Are bananas that bad?
Hi all, This may be the wrong place to post it, but let's try anyway! So I have been eating bananas as a breakfast smoothie in the morning and as a post workout snack at the weekends - so basically every single day.

Nutritional Therapy
Hi all :) I'm just wondering if anyone's ever seen a nutritional therapist for weight loss and got any results from it? I saw one on Saturday and at the moment it seems very overwhelming (especially the price of some foods!) So I'd just like to know what are your experiences on it and was it worth the price? Thanks!

Another issue is the road trip there and back. I'm going with my little…

Newbie!
Hi all, I'm a new one here :) The name's Alia and I'm from the UK. Trying to lose weight for the summer and because I've been made redundant recently and the other half and I have split up (I'm praying temporarily lol)...all happened within days of each other! I'm aiming to lose around 30lbs, but even if I lose 14lbs, I'd…

Back bulge?
Hi all *waves* I was wondering how do you get rid of back bulge? When I have lost weight before, the weight drops off everywhere except my back! I do Zumba 4 - 5 times a week and walk 3 miles a day, plus 10 mins skipping/jump rope, but nothing's falling off the back? :\ Does anyone have any recommendations for this?…
