No dinner for me tonight...
Having recently been attempting to overcome a compulsive eating disorder, I have been doing really well with MFP over the last couple of weeks.

All I keep thinking is that I'm never going to make any difference in less than 3 weeks now, so I may as well give up trying. What is an…

Compulsive Eating
I have posted on here before about being diagnosed as having a compulsive eating disorder. I have been exercising like mad (which I love) and was doing really well on the food side of things for a short while, but now feel like I am slowly heading back to square one. Today has been a REALLY bad day, so I have decided to…

Pretty miffed...
...at the amount of calories and fat there are in "healthy, natural" snacks. Just bought a load on my lunch break and didn't read the nutritional information until I was back at my desk. I'm shocked! And gutted. Is there nothing perfect?! Just saying.

Fighting a losing battle...
Hi everyone, So, in 4 weeks time I am going on holiday, where, like everybody else, I want to feel in good shape and not worry about indulging in the all inclusive goodness!
