Calling 5'2" girls
I've just upped my calories to 1300 as I've been yo-yoing between 131/130 for the past 3 weeks. I'm just curious how much other people who are the same height as me eat and what their activity level is set to, how much weight they lose a week and how much exercise they do... :flowerforyou: ETA: Please no 1200 wank !

Walking on treadmill
I've just signed up to a fancy new gym and I went yesterday to check it out for my induction. Surprisingly the place was empty so I got to investigate all the machines and play around for a bit. Now, I've always avoided the treadmills because I hate running but I decided I'd try walking on an incline at a highish speed and…

Taste buds
Is it possible for you to become intolerant to foods or to suddenly dislike them? For the past 2 weeks drinking my coffee has been a struggle and most of the time I can only drink half of a cup before throwing the rest away. It actually makes me feel ill now where as before I lived for it :sick: Anyone else had this happen…

Fresh Pasta Question
I know dry pasta is a different weight to cooked pasta but what about fresh pasta? I have some fresh wholewheat tagliatelle that I'm planning to have for dinner and it says on the packet that 125g is a serving size. So does that mean 125g straight out of the packet? Tried googling and didn't get a definite answer, figure…

What was your tipping point?
I was always pretty slim during school and then the first year of university. I put on a bit of weight in the second year and was told to my shock that I looked so much better and had looked 'sick' in the first year. In fact, I remember my room mates commenting on my 'small' portion sizes and always making comments about…
