Subliminal Messages For Weight Loss
I'm just wondering if anyone here has ever tried listening to subliminal messages for weight loss? There's lots of free subliminals on youtube.

Muscle Cramps
Oh my gosh, this morning i was swimming in the pool (its summer here in Australia) when I suddenly got a terrible cramp in my leg and had to get out!

Diet Break?
Since the beginning of this year, I have lost 7.4 kilos (or about 16 pounds) which I am thrilled about. However, over the past three weeks I have started to binge eat and I worked out that I have undone my calorie deficit days.

How much time are you spending exercising?
Over the past five years or so, I've tried to use my exercise bike for 1 hour a day. About 6 months ago I got a fitbit and have aimed for 10000 steps a day, which takes me an hour and a half to do. As well, I injured my shoulder a couple of months ago and now do half an hour of physio exercises per day. So in total, this…

Organic? Genetically modified food?
Are you happy to pay more for organic food? Do you avoid foods that are genetically modified? Why? I'm not in the US, and I found a place that sold imported American foods. I was amazed at how many foods had genetically modified ingredients in them. I have family in the US and they pretty much buy organic all the time but…

This means that on, say, a Monday and a Thursday you will eat 500 calories if you are a woman, 600 if you are a man. If you stick to this plan then you…

I am grateful I binged
So today, I have had a day of complete and utter binge-eating...but I'm not sorry. I realized the reason why I was binge eating was because I was not wanting to face certain feelings. I wanted to share what I am repeating which is making me feel better about over eating: I am willing to release these feelings. I recognize…

Right now I'm weighing myself everyday, and I write down the weight along with the date in a notebook.

I'm not following any particular 'diet', I just am active and…
