| Motivation | Setting mini weight loss goals - what's yours? | Oct 03 2007 19:49 (UTC) |
2 |
| i have set myself goals of 7lbs a time - it used to be 14 but considering i have so much to go - smaller goals are easier and you feel so chuffed when you have reached one - i am struggling at the moment to get to 28lbs total loss - my third effective mini goal of 7 but am determined to get there one day | |||

we certaibly do that - this week she had full marks in a mental maths test (multiplication tables) and also in a spelling test. this is the one thing that encourages her is praise and we are always full of that for her. (Sorry if this sounds big headed) but i just cant help it when it comes to how well she is doing and how far she has come |

| in respect to libory - i have not been venting all my personal problems on the forum - i have just been asking advice about certain situations from people who dont know me and may be able to offer me some advice - i look and read every post and if there is something useful i will take it on board and use it.
i do talk to my husband about our situation lbblair - we are strong and united as a team but things do get strained - i am trying to keep up a strong front but it can be hard, i want to cut my hours alayney - because i am never home at decent hours to see my daughter - up to next saturday 22nd september as of last week i will have worked three weeks without hardly any time off - one day i think. she wants me at home but unless i am earning there is not enough to give her little things now and then - i try not and spoil her - and also when i am off i am too tired to do much outside with her etc. |

| Weight Loss | If you eat slower why is it better?? | Sep 09 2007 07:55 (UTC) |
22 |
| personally i find its better to eat slowly - you enjoy your food more rather than just gulping it down.
i find if i eat too quick it gives me terrible heartburn and indigestion - which i suffer a lot of being the size that i currently am - just over 240 - have lost 22.8 since may 26th this year. |

| The Lounge | Eat our dirt USA!! | Sep 09 2007 07:48 (UTC) |

| OK so the USA lost to England - but it was not a flattering scoreline for the World Cup holders was it?
Look at what New Zealand and Australia did against their respective sides - thats what you call a good scoreline. Well done to the USA for doing so good - i only hope that Wales (where i come from) can do ok against Canada - but best of luck to both sides. |

| Foods | please help - i need this advice | Sep 07 2007 20:24 (UTC) |
1 |
| thanks for the help - i appreciate it very much - the reason i wanted to know is so that i will not eat it again due to having now a very good idea of what it contains. it was a treat for me to have something nice without worrying too much about it - its not often that i do this - but when i do i want to make sure that i enjoy it | |||
| Foods | So have you blackballed all unhealthy foods, or do you cheat? | Sep 01 2007 14:05 (UTC) |
40 |
| i do not deny myself anything but what i call the naughty stuff i try and limit it - if i overdo it one day then for the next couple of days i will try not to have anything naughty at all.
at the end of the day if you fancy something that you should not eat a lot of have it in moderation |

| excsuse me if i sound thick but do you mean
bmr(2200) - exercise (300) = 1900 meaning i should eat about 1400 a day when i first started in may this year i was led to believe it was bmr +exercise - calories eaten = decefit i am confused - i so need to lose weight big time and i want to do it right. if its 1400 a day for a person of my current size (247) i would really struggle |

| to me you are not eating enough - and going all day between breakfast and supper on just liquids is not healthy - have tried it and made myself bad.
eat small healthy meals and exercise - weight will stay off better. you find you will lose weight with what you are doing but if you then start eating a bit more it will all soon go back on - have been through this too. please be very very very careful |
|||
| Weight Loss | starting AGAIN! :( | Aug 28 2007 18:13 (UTC) |

| i too have been struggling with the loss - but please dont give up.
ok - you will have the odd bad day - but dont let it get you down or fall off the wagon - i am determined to carry on - i know that you can do it too |

| Weight Loss | Loose Skin | Aug 05 2007 21:35 (UTC) |

| i would think that as long as you exercise and tone up as you go along you should be fine
i lost over 8 stones (112lbs) a few years ago and due to exercise i did not have loose skin over my midrif etc - did have cellulite but then most do no matter what their shape or size. i am hoping it will be the same again as i once again fight to lose my weight again |

| i second that - big time - we are here to support one another - not to put each other down etc etc (the first answer) that is the whole point of the forum and after reading the answer from Robyn - i could not believe what i was reading - i have sent a pm to diorbaby asking her to reconsider - not to leave - i wont say what i personally feel about the two answers she listed - it would not be the right thing for me to do - all i want to say if that if she reads this - stay - dont leave - we are here to help - ignore the judgemental ones - they are not worth the time and effort |
