Eat Water Slim rice
So I have had this packet of odd looking stuff in the cupboard for a few weeks now called Eat Water Slim Rice. Trouble is, I'm a real believer in eating real food but it was a bit of an impulse buy that I thought might be good if I didn't have too many calories left for dinner one day. That day came and I just couldn't…

Boobs gone :( (more for the ladies)
So I'm at my ideal weight but I seem to have lost most of my fat from my boobs and they do not look at all nice. I'm not interested in a boob job at the moment so I'm looking for another way to improve things in that area. Any tips ladies? I haven't exercised much lately but I'm planning on starting to use my weights again…

Laser lipo, fat expulsion?
So I decided to treat myself and my tum to the completely non invasive, pain free laser lipo but boy does it feel like I've been invaded now! About 2 hours after my first session yesterday I started to get tummy cramps and wind and a day and a half later it still feels just as bad. I was told to drink lots of water as…

Thanks
Just wanted to say thanks for all the educating posts about eating more, drinking water, getting lots of protein and all the other great tips. I've been netting ridiculously low calories the last couple of months (not sure why as I was losing eating a good amount but I guess we just get silly about these things sometimes).…

Amino acids and vegetarians
So as I understand it, in order to build strong muscles you need protein and the complete set of amino acids. I gather that most people don't have to worry too much as they get the amino acids at the same time as their protein-from meat. I'm a vegetarian and after some googling it seems the only complete source of amino…

Should I not count healthy fats?
Hi again, I'm a veggie and I've been trying to increase protein in my diet as it seems this is something that I am really lacking. I've been eating small amounts of nuts, eggs, houmous etc as they seem to be quite good sources but I'm finding that although I may have only consumed around 700 calories I'm at my fat limit.…

Losing weight but still fat
Hi I'm looking for some advice. I've been working out most days (dancing, 30 day shred) and watching what I eat (no more eating huge bars of chocolate every night and lots of veg and salad) and I've lost 22lbs since the end of October. I'm now 10 1/2lbs away from my goal of 135lbs but although I feel healthier, stronger…

Modified Jumping Jacks
So I'd really like to give the 30 day shred a go but (and I don't care what Jillian says lol) I am not allowed to do jumping jacks or anything remotely bouncy at all and I don't want to risk my health so how can I do them safely? There must be some way of modifying them so they are low impact? Thanks

Introducing myself/friends needed
Hi, I just wanted to say a quick hello as I'm new here and would really like to make some MFP friends so that we can support one another on our tough journeys. I am a 27 year old female from Kent, UK. I've just finished my studies (for now anyway) and am currently a stay at home mum. I'm finding it hard to find time to…
