Wow! Where was this thread all my life?! :O I've had everything said to me!! Why do people feel they are EXPERTS at nutrition just because they're slim?! It's hilarious because some of my "cousins" who were giving me advise about nutrition a few years ago are now 10 times the size of everest...

Update!!! Today WAS a good day, had a coffee in the morning, 2 satsumas.. haven't eaten much after that... I was gonna make myself a nice healthy meal when I got home UNTIL.. someone had to ruin my day by calling me fat...*story of my life pretty much* ruthless idiot, now I can't be asked to...

Hi hun! Thank you soo much for your kind words.. I was so optimistic today till my friend's boyfriend called me fat and said I had a weight issue. I feel like crying my heart out... shes obviously a small little thing and compared to her the skinniest of people are fat, and I was speaking to her...

Firstly, I am sooo glad you guys can relate and some are actually motivated by my "story" wow! :) Thanks Paul, well I have been on and off again with my diet, however, in attempt to overcome my fears and get self confidence I am back on track for a size 12 :) How is your weight loss going...

Hii guys! It's been a very long time since I've posted here... my weight loss journey continues.. There is something I've been meaning to ask and perhaps just let out? Recently, I have gained weight (more so BUT am on the weight loss journey again) and you could say I'm not your conventional...

I felt like this all this week.. but i decided to change my attitude. Sometimes, we just need to pick ourselves up. You know that little voice inside your head that tells you, "you'll stay like this the rest of your life so might as well stuff your face like you always do". Well tell it to shut...

I've always thought it to be, you've lost weight - so a compliment.

Awww thanks so much for those words... I was skeptical that anyone at all would respond.. but that made me feel a heap better. You have a model height and once you reach your goal weight im certain you'd beat any dainty girl off the street :)

.... I can't even say I've been having "one of those fat days" it's been like this pretty much all my life! I've always been a little bit taller, the one who looks a little bit more different and oh yeah the FAT one. I'm sick of it.. Honestly, have had enough of everything, from low self...

Woooww! Seems like years I haven't posted on here! I'm amazed to see how many people have read my "story". Let me update you guys on my life in these few months. Basically I fell completely off track! I've piled on another stone! ARGH! I started my VLCD a week ago.. and weighed myself this...

In my dreams I'm this ravishing woman with long dark wavy hair, wearing high heels and a fitted oufit walking like she owns the street ;) I don't know how realistic this is lol.

I feel so hugggeee! I went shopping today for smart clothes to wear to work i start on monday and im so nervous because its my first full time job and i want to make a good impression. I went with a friend, she's a size 10 and im 16, whatever i tried looked totally horrendous on me :( I...

Thank you! =)

Thank you! So, I don't need to fill out any additional forms? It will all be done automatically?

Hiyaa all! I hope you're weigh losses are going well! I just needed some help from some experienced people! I'm starting my first job very soon, can someone please explain to me how tax works? Will it be deducted from my pay automatically? Also, what's all this tax pay-back system? :S...

Been there and done that, he will regret leaving you when you look fabulous! :) Good luck, I always love seeing exes mouths drop when they look at a girl they dumped and think "she could have been mine". He may even try his way back into your life after you've lost your weight, if I was you I...

Awww *hugs* I can relate to what you're saying because us humans are our own enemies! We love to slate and curse each other! Look at it this way, those people who judge us have no idea what we have been through, they have no right to make silly assumptions, therefore their opinions don't...

Haha, yes I love that film! I would be the biggest drama queen to the people who deserve it if I was confident enough, can't believe some people!

I'm loving all this positivity, keep them coming! =)

Keep them coming! :)

Awww thanks babypat! So can you! :)

Fatmanslimming: I think quite a lot of people have this problem unfortunately. It can only get better with time. Girlsbig98: Oww I know I can relate so much! I set my privacy settings so that only I can view pictures I'm tagged in, although that doesn't come handy when you have mutual friends...

Aww, mine are so short and chubby! And you will love you butt again very soon :)

Ah, I know what you mean by thighs, I have "thunder thighs!"

Hiii fellow mini-mins! :) I don't know if this has been done before, but I thought let's cheer everyone up! (I know it's late in the night lol) So everyone, describe or name one physical feature of yourself that you like! And describe one feature of yourself you'd like to love after your...

I'm sorry you had to go through that :( That is absolutely horrible! Those guys are lacking in the department below so feel they need to make it up by picking on others. Jokes apart, someone who feels the need to critisize others (intentionally trying to belittle them) has a flaw of...

lool good on you! Exes can go die of jealousy! Good luck m'love! xxx

What a day today has been! My will power was tested to it's limit, and I succeeded :O I am shocked, was so close to eating that fried chicken! Today has been a good day :) Kept on track, lotsa fruit, water and green tea :) I'm back on it for good! ;)

What an utter low life human being he/she must've been! How cruel! People really do NOT realise the impact these things can have on us. It's like you're being told you're not good enough! If I were you, I would go back to that store when I had lost all the weight make that cow run about...

I just remembered another "fat" incident, I once went to my brother's parent evening (this was 2008ish) and the teacher thought I was his mum, most embarassing moment E V E R. On the other hand, having lost some weight, I can now be mistaken to be a high-schooler? :S jheez what a difference...

My face defo first place to come off and that's where most people notice it too. And worst places are my darn stomach and thighs! I am an unfortunate "pear" shape lol.

I'm so sorry about late responses! I've been all over these past few months! caroline g: Aww thank you so much for that, you're really inspiring! I guess we are all beautiful, but sometimes I can't help but feel no amount of weight loss is ever enough! Mynewself: Ohh, I wish I fell under...

I love this thread! =D To be able to walk confidently and not shy away from taking pictures! I've noticed in every picture of mine, I'm either the one taking the picture or the one hiding behind someone to hide my "fat". Also, a few days ago I went to a high class store (stupid me) and...

Righty-hoooo! Helllooo feellloow mini-mins! =D I havent posted on here for lonngggg! But today is another day, and time to start a fresh - ive been good today, and im gonna weigh myself tomorrow :$ Hope everyones weight losses are going good! Time for some green tea :) xxx

Thank you all soooo much, I feel better just by reading your replies, so caring! lots of love xxx

Hi littlesis! Things are definetly starting to get better, got a part time job a few days ago and an interview on Friday :D Thanks for asking!

Awwww thankyou so much ladies! *hugggless* I've never had a mother figure, someone to tell me all these changes are natural and things will fall into place soon (my mum's been mentally ill most of her life)... so guess I feel a little lost, but thank you :)

Hiya all, I really didn't know where to post this, so just posted it here. About a month ago I reached 11st 4lbs, my lowest weight ever, and I still felt inadequate, as if I didn't belong or was inferior to others. Since then, I've gained a stone (exams etc), and now i've lost all...

Im feeling positive for tomorrow! Gym gym gym! Im gonna get into a 12 and there isnt no one whose gonna stop meeee =D

Ever used that phrase? I know I have...! "I'm not photogenic".. or i'll usually be the one taking the picture! I just felt I needed to bring this up.. seems like even after having lost 2 stones, I have crippling confidence issues.. gosh. I went out with some friends a few days ago after my...

Wow, I never knew people could be so cruel. Hmm... what have I had erm, lots from my family, you look like a whale from the back, why don't you stop eating, join the gym... When I was younger I would dream of wearing normal jeans and a top like my friends, needless to say it never happened, I...

interesting thread, im gonna keep tuned. I went down from 14 stones to about 11st 3lbs about 3 weeks ago (lightest ive ever been), and since then exam period started and i started eating... and eating.. an eating... and gained about 10lbs :'( !! I cant seem to get back on track!

thanks hun! where do i start? my weights piled back to just under 12 stones!!!! ive been binging so much cos of exams, someone pleaseee give me the kick i neeed :(((( all my hard work i cannot go over 12 stones

OMG im in the same position, I feel your pain, and im EXACTLY like you, for me its all or nothing. I cant eat bad things i.e. chocolate in moderation. This week for the first time in about 10 weeks of strict dieting have I gone off the rails COMPLETELY from Macdonalds, to subway, crisps...

Out of interest what size are you (UK) if you don't mind me asking?? Only cos im the same height and weight as you at the moment! =)

Rightyy hoooo, well so far good day, sticking to the plan, i'm gonna weigh myself next sunday hopefully a big loss! Fingers crossed, I can so see that 10 stone something!!! More on the negative my UTI has come backk! Gosh will it ever leave me alone, I have exams in 10 days!! :(

Hmmm, mine's a bit more personal. My childhood wasn't very pleasant, so I turned to food as a comfort... I started off really thin as a child upto the age of probably 10 - thats when I gained weight, and kept on gaining, my older thinner cousins pointing this out didnt make it any better, I...

Wooo lol. I'm 5ft 5inches and my target is very similar to yours, anywhere under 10 stones, until I feel satisfied or fit into a size 10 ;)

LOL, that's actually a good idea to keep motivated! Let's see who can get into the 10's first, friendly competition :) Good luck to you too! btw, what's your goal weight and height? If you don't mind me asking x

Well, I was 6 pounds away 5 days ago, but since my binge week (totally gone off track and no motivation left) i'm now 10 pounds away! Argh, why why why :( I need to keep this up! Thanks by the way :) How far off are you?

Yuupppp! You read my mind, I feel like nothing is enough! Blergh.

I neeeeed motivation to get to the 10's! I will do this, I will do this, I will do this!

OH MY GOSH! Since Friday I have fallen OFFFF TRACK! I started eating, and eating and... eating??!! I can't stop! I need motivation and self control, I'm not even going to mention how many crisp packets I ate today out of sheer embarassment! I don't want to undo all my hard work, someone knock...

hmm, i've heard excercise is 20% and diet is 80% Not entirely sure though, speaking for myself, I can lose quite alot of weight (did in the first month of my diet) without excercise, I guess it depends on the individual.

Okay so today I was abruptly woken by an unbearable pain caused by UTI, woke through the whole night, could sleep, sit, constant need to urination and burning sensation, I literally felt like dying, wouldn't wish this feeling upon my enemies! Seriously. In the morning, rents' made me eat so...

Celery :| also after eating an obsessive amount of radish, I am now beginning to detest it. I can't eat lettuce or salad unless it's in a sammmich :D

Oh gosh, I hope they're both okay! Some people have bad days, others (like me) bad weeks, this is probably a few days the storm will pass, stay strong! xx

My mums home made fat loaded curry and rice!! ahhh, can still smell it!

Wowaa well done to all you guys, I really don't know how this works but i've got to lose 20lbs by May :$

I thought I was the only one who did this lol, I can pretty much make a sandwich with any type of crisp and it tastes epic!

There's too many to list :p But right now if I could eat anything it would probably be garlic bread with extra cheeese, chunky chips with chilli sauce hmmm, that OR Nandos haha, haven't had that since forever now!

Ahh, good to know i'm not alone! Good luck all, final year uni exams darn it! So much stress, it's like I physically cannot eat, even if my stomach tells me otherwise! :( So much stress, and thanks for all the ideas =)

Pieces of white radish, cucumber slices and some cherry tomatoes... :sad0071:

Thanks, I think with me, till I get to my ultimate weight, it won't show. And you're 2 inches taller than me too! lol lucky! I don't mind being a pear shape, because I want to have curves by the end of my weight loss, but I want to be a pear who's toned =P Good luck with your weight loss too =)...

Gosh I have loads, since childhood my weights gone up and down from 15stones to 12ish stones, that's what it's done to me, my back, stomach, legs, arms, and theyre not small they are huge stretch marks, I feel like i've given birth and that's the result of it, such a demotivator.

Oh gosh you read my mind!! I'm a pear shape, small(ish) boobs and wide hips, I HATE it! My hips, thighs and bum carry alllll of the weight and I have a small waist, really hard to find clothes to flatter me! And like you I have bingo wings, they are ridiculousss, so flabbyyy even with weight...

Having lost about 2 1/2 stones, I haven't properly gone down even ONE size! =( I went into crisp yesterday and tried on a 14 jean and it wouldn't get past my knees! So gutted, but the 16's are alot looser, just not enough to get into a 14 in normal shops yet!

Thanks for the replies guys! Serya - I am intending on eating healthily, during exam period I lose my appetite and can't eat when i'm really stressed, so not worried about over-eating/binging! x Nati_jade - You're right, I am VERY concious about my weight, because ever since I can remember I...

Hii alll, just a question. Basically, during the past week (7 days I think, since I joined the gym) I've been regularly going to the gym and working out hardcore. BUT... It has just dawned upon me that my exams are just 3 weeks away (FINAL YEAR UNI!!) :cry:And these are really realllyy...

I reallyyy need a big loss this week or I will pull my hair out :( Don't see that happening though, i've got the FLU! Ergh! Although, i've lost my appetite (so not eating much atm just plenty of honey and lemon tea/peppermint/greentea) my gym is non-existent (I'm used to going everyday) can't...

Right now I would kill to be a loose size 14 or just fitted 12, but looking at the bigger picture, I want to be a 10! I think I will only truely be comfortable with myself once i'm a 10 because I have a small(ish) frame, and all the fat surrounding it does it no justice! So, even at a size 12 I...

Thankyou!! xx

Hi all, im soooo ill, flu has hit me at the worsttt time possibleeee :( Revision period! I need to get rid of my sore throat ASAP, remedies pleasee! Also, does anyone find Krisp jeans sizes too small?? I tried on a size 14 today wouldn't get past my damn knees, made me feel so FAT :( Arghh...

Thank youuu! Well done to you too! It's nice to have support during these times!

Thank you, hmm gonna have to start measuring myself! lol yes in fact the way he was staring at me with slight disgust, I felt like asking him, do I even look obese to you? I admit i'm overweight, but i'm not obese! Was well shocked! Since my diet has started over 2 months ago, I can proudly...

Hi there, this is a bit random, but you're the same height as me and your goal weight is similar - well done on nearly reaching it! May I ask what clothes size you are?? x

11st 5 lbs! Ohhh so close, I want to see the 10st 13lb mark NOW!

Minus 2 pounds :( I should be grateful, but i so wanted to see a 3 or 4 pound loss, I did cardio and ate well every day of this week :(

Ah just the thread I was looking for, wanted to update my ipod when running on the treadmill. Champion by Chipmunk - Chris brown Black eyed peas - Just can't get enough Bruno Mars - grenade Kristina Debarge - goodbye Eye of the tiger - survivor Christina Aguilera - fighter Christina Aguilera...

Gonna weigh myself after gym tomorrrow! Ohhh, hope it's 3 pounds! *nervous*

LOL errrmm alot, i really mean alot.. morning would be a big break, probs egg and toast, french toast, or last nights pizza, I wouldnt be full with just one of those, I would have to have a bowl of cereal with it too. Then I would feel "hungry" (right) after 1/2 hour eat crisps, chocs, junk...

OMG same hereeee! Its sooo frustratingggg I feel like all my efforts are wasted :@

I feel better after talking to some people, they said it was basically a load of crap lol. Cos u cant measure fat percentage from a hand machine. So i'm happy, as long as my BMI is going down... =)

Well done! If you don't mind me asking what size are they? By the way they look loose on youuu :)

oooo i'm a pear shape, so most of my weight is on my thighs, bum and hips! I always wear long-ish tops to hide that area, so annoying! But I know I can look good in jeans, if I lost all the extra fat around those areas, at the moment a size 14 (in most clothes), but I want to be a loose size 14...

Male attention lol and I don't feel like "why on Earth would he go for a fatty like me" but "yeap if I were you I would too" haha. Mainly fitting into the skinny jeans I bought years ago, or any clothes that I own from years ago. I can walk confidently now, no more head down, and when...

Well done for breaking that darn plateau :D

You're right :) I went to the gym today to get "assessed" and my body fat % was 44?!! :cry:I was literally about to cry. And my BMI was 25% I understand that, but how can 44% of my body be made up of fat, the guy said I was "obese" and then he said "atleast you made a good move by coming to...

Thankyou so much! I've noticed you're nearly there too :D More on a down-ish note.. I was just pondering today and thought to myself, why am I actually losing the weight, is it for me? Or is it for others...... got me a bit down to be honest :sigh:

Ohhh I had to resist so much today :( It was my nephews b'day and they made some oriental rice, burgers, chips, tortillas, kebabs, cake, fizzy drinks. I felt so bad saying "ive already eaten" :( I can still smell the food, I didnt have any but Im reallyy realllyy craving it!

I LOST 3 POUNDS! yaaay, i'm so happpyyy, finally all that patience paid off =D I am now 11st 7 lbs hehe, looking foward to under 11's and gym tomorrow!

Does anyone drink loose green tea? I boil some water, add some cardamom and cinamon sticks, and then a teaspoon or 2 or loose green tea, YUM :)

What diet do you follow? As in when you're "good" for a few days, what does this consist of? Diet and excercise wise.

:cry::break_diet::wave_cry: No matter how much weight I lose why is it never enough? Why am I still a fat blob amongst all others??? I went out today seeing it's a nice day, and I feel like utter crap now that i'm at home, cannot stop crying, I usually turn to food, but Im thinking why do I...

Well done for recognizing the underlying reasons for over-eating. Personally, one i'm asleep nothing can wake me up, even if i'm starving! lol, my mother on the other hand will wake up mid night to get some food.

Ohhh sorry to hear that, sucks when all your hard work feels like it's wasted! Have you tried a technique by Paul McKenna I think it was. I saw his program on TV about 2 years ago, and I still rememeber this one thing he said (kinda phased out on other things he was saying :$) Whenever you...

:( Owwwwww realllyyyyyyyyy craving a chicken burgerrrrr I can almost smell it

I don't like the summer :o It's when I have to show my body cos it's sooo hot I can't hide behind my winter coat anymore :cry: Howeverrr, this summer shall be different, I am determined to make it the most enjoyable, funnest, fantabuolous summer possible, where I can wear what I want :D

I'm joining the gym with my dad eeeekkkkkkkkkk!! So excited, and it's a 3 month contract so perfect for a student broke as I am! =D =D =D

Thankyou! How's yours going?? Just did Davina's 30 min pump work out, I feel good, the sun is shining too =)

Hmm, good-ish day today! Had loadsssss of green tea, been reading up about the benefits so thought I would drink extra, also lots of vegs and water. I do miss the indulgences though, Pizzaa, chipsss owww lol I made pancakes today for my little brothers, and I just wanted to eat them, but...

I love this thread <3 Has motivated me since yesterday! My reasons for weight loss.. (some are very childish but bear with me :$) - To look and feel amazing, and walk with that confidence that all my friends seem to have. - To walk past a group of guys with confidence WITHOUT taking the...

Thankyou! =) I try not to but I can't help it, they eat away at burgers whilst I eat my salad or stare into thin air lol. It's sooo hard keeping on a VLCD the smell of my mum's cooking could kill me lol. At the moment, i'm finding my weight is coming off, but the inches are not, I have nooo...

today was so blerghhhh :( What on Earth??! I just wrote a whole venting letter on here and it's gone now! It made me feel so much better, i'm going to write it again lol. Basically, today I feel really low. Had such a stressful day, went to uni for the first time in ages, still hiding behind...

Hiya fellow Mini-miniuns =D I know this isn't the right thread for intros, but, I wanted to jump straight in if no one minds :$ This is a bit of my background, I hope some of you can relate. Ever since I was younger, since the age of 12ish i've been told not only by a few "friends" but...
