I still feel slightly chubby.. I'd have liked to be a size ten all over, but I'm a 10/12 in jeans, but then a 6/8 on tops. My BMI is 19.2. I feel as though almost I'm not living up to my full potential if I don't slim further but.. I don't know when it'd ever feel right to stop. Slimming has...

I'm going here tonight, could anyone post the points for the vegetarian burger choices (particularly the mushroom burger)? I've left my book at home and I can't find calorie/points info anywhere. I feel lost!

:cry:thats rubbish. obviously you're not going to want to think about food. you got a chance at that job, they'll be more chances ahead:) xx

I've had a bad time of it. Weekend was just a big 'ol binge - two nights out makes for silly food. Chips, pizza, onion rings, ice cream, biscuits.. It's like once I start I continue to munch, even though I don't actually want all that greasy, tasteless food very much. I'm so cross with myself...

Count me in? It'd be nice to reach my goal (10lbs, 10lbs..) by june. Then I can finally buy some new clothes!! :) I'm doing lots of exercise, so I might gain weight from that.. hm. if i could just be a 8/10 (my bottom will never go into single figures, such is life), i'd be pretty happy. my...

god, if I cycled 22 miles I'd grab a chocolate bar! strong woman!

Maybe alternate days of 1000 and 1200, on the second day having something you would really like, like a glass of wine, or a small chocolate bar?

I think foodfocus is a wee bit generous with the calories burnt from exercise; my two hour martial arts sessions are definitely not burning 2000 calories, tragically! I do know from cycling, jogging etc. that I perform much much better when I have a little low gi 100 calorie-ish sugary snack...

Thanks for the advice!! The weight I lost so far I lost whilst still having the weekly vodka followed by cheesy chip night, but that was before I started exercising, and during the week I'd be very very restrictive (900/1000, if that), which was so so unhealthy but I was stressed and short if...

During the week it's easy, I have no time to eat at work anyway. But at weekends when you go clubbing, drink alot then end up at the chip shop, or have long slow pub lunches, it is so hard! I love going out, but it is hard given that when i'm drunk chips are so hard to resist, and even though to...

These are approximates. I'm a lazy girl. Breakfast - Low sugar muesli (60g) with skim and milk and two tablespoons 2% fat probiotic yogurt, two cups coffee, one with skim milk and low gi nectar sweetener - 280 10am - 1/5 of a kit kat finger (yes it's pathetic to list this, but I have a stone...

God this is impossible seeming, I've been trying for a year. I feel ok-ish with my weight, but I'm still carrying alot on my thighs and bum, and I know I'd feel alot happier if I lost (maybe not a stone) 10lbs. Any tips? Every day i wake up thinking I'll try and it goes to pot.

Sorry if this has already been said, but have you gone to see a doctor about the anxiety? If you have, and there hasn't been much treatment movement, follow it up? If you haven't, I would really really recommend going to see someone. I know it's a massive scary step, but there is real help out...

I'm having trouble sticking to it, but I lost one and half stone last summer this way and it has stayed off. I will try and eat something in the mornings, I could always leave earlier so I get to work before my shift starts and I could eat then.. but then thats means I'd miss a precious half...

One shake a day is too little, I'm just really struggling to get to my target. I could eat some toast or something before my shift starts, but I just don't feel like eating at 6am. I did have some oatcakes today at 3, I'd had a shake at lunch but was ravenous. It's really hard to diet for me...

So I haven't lost a pound since summer, despite constantly counting calories like a loon. These shakes look good though - lots of iron and protein, which for a veggie like myself is great:) After an awful lunch of cheesy chips I decided enough was enough. I just had my first shake and feel...

I'm really late, but can I join? Nasty break up a few months ago [:cry:], so it'd be nice to look forward to a lovely slinky new body come the dreaded valentines, plus I'm going on holiday right before for a few days so I really need to get my act together!!

Just get to that first week. Don't weigh yourself daily, tempting as it is - results don't really show. But your first weigh in after a week feels great. I know with me it's always a matter of just getting through that first week and setting a healthy routine. It's why I find christmas so hard!

Hey hun:) Well done for making this bold decision. As it's been said above, your plan of eating healthily and exercising is great. It's best to make changes that you can keep up in the long term. This said, fun exercise like trampolining (I miss the one at my parents house sooo much) and...

Losing it should be simple enough in the new year I suppose, but I'm seriously worried about maintaining the loss I've already got.

Hi all:) Although my BMI is healthy, I've long felt uncomfortable with my figure. I dropped 10 pounds in the year, and although I'm thrilled with the results, I know I've got another stone to lose until I feel completely good and confident in myself. This is hard because I seem to be stuck in...

Weight loss is a journey, just because your not dieting now doesn't mean you'll never lose weight. Your working on your overeating and that's whats really important.:)

Thanks for the advice, today I did alright.. so far. I bought a blender and made a lovely smoothie for my lunch which really filled me up. I think I might do kind of like slim fast only I make my own shakes from fruit, soya milk, low fat yoghurt and protein power (it's not meant to make you...

I've been trying since Sunday to lose a bit of weight. I always wake up feeling motivated, eat what I think is an 'ok' breakfast (one slice of wholemeal peanut butter toast with a scraping of butter), have a reasonable lunch, but then it all goes downhill.. first two days I made the mistake of...

Chips and cheese.. and it's my first day dieting! Massive, massive craving.

Hello all! I'm really hopeful about this forum. I think just knowing I'm part of a group with the same goal might make this attempt work. I seriously haven't gone longer than a week on any kind of diet. My BMI is 23.something, and I don't claim to be overweight, but I'm sure this is only...
