43lbs down (pics)
So I've lost 43lbs in the last year and I feel great for it! Unfortunately the past few months, I've hit a bit of a wall. Just need to keep reminding myself how well I did and that I can do it again! :) Here's to the next 43lbs!

Need to get back on track!
So I've been really ill the past week, no energy, very run down and spent most of it on the couch! Tomorrow is my reset day. I need to start logging my food again, it's really good for holding me accountable. I need to up my water again and start doing daily exercise again. I've already lost 12.8lbs and feel great for that…

3 weeks down!
I can't believe I've not smoked for almost 3 weeks. Some days it feels longer, other days it definitely doesn't! The only cravings I'm struggling with now are after I've had a really good meal but I've taken to just sitting down, thinking about the meal, how all the flavours tasted together and I just think about this for…

How long do you leave it after a workout to eat something?
I'm just curious is all.

Apps for walking/pedometer/counting calories burned?
I can never find a good app to calculate the distance I walk, the calories I burn, the steps I take etc. Anyone have any good ones they use? I'm on Android btw :)

1 week down
The rest of my life to go! I'm not using anything but I have an inhalator if I get really bad cravings. I've been really good this week though, only a couple of cravings, no mood swings and I've still managed to lose weight this past week! Feeling really positive about all this. How are you getting on?

Anyone else quit smoking?
I'm on Day 4 now, feeling surprisingly really good. In the past when I've tried to give up I've always felt crabbit. Mood swings and cravings galore! But this time round I feel great. I don't WANT to smoke anymore. I'm ready for all obstacles quitting will put me through and I'm definitely ready for the healthier body! How…

Healthy snack to take to the cinema?
OH tends to get popcorn but are there any other ideas you could give me? Don't know if I'd get away with carrot sticks and hummus!

Another NSV
I said no to a cigarette today. I've never turned one down. Ever! I had to practice in the last 20 odd minutes of my sociology class to say 'no thank you', that's it's 3 simple words that I can say and, well I did! :D

Silly NSV?
I had a Morrisons salad bar salad for my lunch today and usually when I go I fill up on the pastas, cheese and bacon bites but today I just had salad with a bit of hummus/houmus?? on the side. It's silly but I felt really proud of myself for making the better choice!

Some advice?
Can any one recommend recipes or websites with recipes? Good things to snack on that are healthy cheap and filling? A little info so that I get the right kind of help... I'm in the UK, tend to do most of my food shopping in Tesco but have a very limited budget.

Is this any good?
I have an elliptical machine in the house, at least I think it's an elliptical!, the only thing that annoys me about it doesn't have arms that move along as you go, it's just a rounded handle to hold on to. Does this mean the machine is only working out my lower half? My upper body strength is ridiculously low so if this…

Under by 1493 calories
That cannot be good! But it's now 7pm and I'm trying to not eat after 7pm. I'm hoping tomorrow is a better day!

That's it, this time the weight is going!
I just spent a good 20 minutes writing out my past, thinking that it would be a good insight into why I've gained so much weight when it suddenly hit me; yeah I've had a lot of downright crap things happen to me in my life but I've only gained weight because I let myself gain weight. I was lazy and unmotivated and it's my…
