Average-down April - Accountability Thread
Ladies! Spring is coming; whether you know it because the snows are melting, because the parks are crowded, because the first BBQ's are fired up or just because you feel it in your bones! A not so obvious title to encourage everyone to take it slow and steady, and focus on the average weight loss, instead of swings…

Pudding math problem
Hi! I'm super frustrated with the nutritional values put on a "instant pudding powder" package (see image). It states its nutritional value is based on the prepared pudding. Aka per 100 grams of prepared pudding (not just the powder). But they specifically state the recipe is with semi-skimmed milk. Now, I make this with…

Dedicated December
Hello all, to end the year well: the final accountability thread for 2019! We all know the drill by now: optionally set some goals, check in as often as you like (some do daily, some do weekly, or whenever you feel like it), and support each other through this -undoubtedly challenging- holiday month! For me that means:…

Losing boobs
So, the dreaded event has happend: my breast size (which was already modest to start with) has gone from 97cm (38,19in) to 92cm (36,22in). I mean, I get that it's impossible to only lose fat on certain parts of your body, but in comparison I'm losing more on my boobs than anywhere else! Waste has only dropped 3cm, and…

Recipes
Figured it could be nice to have a recipe thread going to share interesting, healthy, delicious recipes. Right now I'm looking at a bunch of leftover dates and apples I would like to combine into an appel-dates cake. Enough recipes online, but thought I'd ask around here if anyone has a tried and tested recipe for this =)…

Calculate body fat %
So, out of curiosity I tried to find trustworthy calculations to have a vague idea about my bodyfat %. Lots of different sites and methods to be found, yet all of them seem to overestimate me a lot. To explain: my BMI is about 21.6, which is nicely in the middle of what is considered a "healthy" weight. Furthermore, I'm…
