    Advice - Japanese/Thai Food

    Japanese restaurant portion of Tori Teriyaki - 5.5. If you think it was a large portion, you might want to add a bit extra on. Boiled Rice 6.5 Veg - depends how much oil was used so I'd count anything between 1 and 2.5

    No Bathroom Action?? (TMI for sensitive types!)

    I had this happen when I went back to counting points after a long time away. Compared with my diet beforehand I was having much less fat and it was probably a bit too low. I made sure I had more wholegrains (wholemeal bread and cereal, brown rice) and upped the fat intake slightly, using...

    Takeaway

    The link posted above is for ProPoints, not Discover points values and as you posted it in the Discover section it may not be what you want. If you need Chinese and Indian points for the Discover plan, google UK Lady Luck - I can't post the link here.

    Fat

    I know you can do it, because I've been in a similar position too (no kids but a long term regain, and health was my main motivation this time around too). Good luck.

    Wii Fit & "Gaming Exercise" Challenge - January 2011

    By now I don't think I'll make the December deadline for 10 hours, but the challenge definitely motivated me to workout on days when I wasn't in the mood. So I'd like to sign up for another month. I'll aim for 10 hours again, using a mixture of Wii fit, My Fitness Coach and EASA 1.

    gutted....

    I had quite a lot of STS on the way down and it tended to be before TOTM (that's a lot of acronyms!) The upside was that sometimes I had a better than average loss the week after. No guarantees, but you never know. If you think water retention may be affecting you, drink plenty of water and...

    How Did You Become Fat?

    I was never overweight as a child or teen. For me it was linked to lifestyle changes, probably depression too. I really started piling it on after going away to uni as a mature student in my mid20s. I had a tough year prior to that with more than one bereavement, then uprooted myself and felt...

    I was doing the downward-facing dog today with the cat standing underneath miaowing up at me. Very strange. I think she's jealous of me using the yoga mat since she likes sitting on it when it's not in use. I might do a bit more later but this is my update as of lunchtime today. Miss...

    Best form of exercise

    Mixing it up a bit is always a good idea for me. I tend to get bored too easily and haven't yet found an exercise I like so much that I stick to it long term. Convenience is also high on my list. For that reason I quite like Wii exercise games, especially in winter. I like them even better...

    I've just spotted this thread and would like to join in as I've recently started exercising again on the Wii after a long break. I'm doing a mixture of Wii Fit and My Fitness Coach: Get in Shape. 10 hours is my goal for the month and my time so far, as of 5th December is 1 hour 42 minutes.

    How do you know when the right time to stop is?

    I'm the same height, look pear-shaped when slimmer and the thinnest I ever have been when younger was 9st 7. I was still a size 12 in trousers then, because I've got big hipbones. No amount of slimming is going to change that, if that's the case for you because you can't alter your...

    Not sure what to do....

    First of all, a big well done! Fantastic weight loss. It can be a bit tricky, comparing your loss to other people's. For a start we're all different shapes, and someone of the same height and weight can look very different depending on their build, how toned they are etc. Loose skin and how...

    Points in Bread

    On average, bread is 3.5 points per 100g. I've always used that value for weighed slices of bakery bread. It's working out as 1.225 on a calculator but I'd round up to 1.5 just to be safe.

    anyone else??

    I'm new here - have lurked on occasion in the past but it's good to see there's still a forum for the old points system so I decided to sign up at last. I lost all my weight at home using WW books I'd kept from almost a decade ago. It's taken me a few months of trial and error to figure out my...
