I hate counting calories, but I recently started and its crazy how fast they add up!! 200 grams of bread has about 300 calories!! Ad ham, mayo and cheese and you have a quarter of your daily allowance. If you then eat something sweet for a snack you are done for the day.. crazy!

Being aware of something is the first step to controlling it

Measuring it is the second step :-)

My condolences. My sister in law made a bet with her husband she could go a year without it. It's been 7 months so far. 7 very grumpy months.

The question is could you stop at one chunk of chocolate?? If we could do that life would be much easier

And a challenge sounds really cool. I should be joing that new gym in the first few days of July. I am currently about 76Kg but have really gotten quite soft recently. makes me feel very unmanly

Yeah, I went on a low carb diet and lost so many pounds in 2 weeks. Cut out processed foods like bread & pasta and your body changes overnight.

I think I might do that for a couple of weeks, I badly need to start exercising more too, for the fitness side as much as weight loss, I'm so unfit but I hate exercising!

I stopped going to the gym a month ago and I am noticing how my muscles are starting to go soft again. I need to get started again!

I would love to be one of those people who actually enjoy exercise, to me it's just torture

I need to make more of effort with my lunches in work, I just usually take the easy option and buy a sandwich

Yeah that's a big prob with modern living. Even the so-called healthy sambos are packed with salt and additives. I bring in a lot of low fat natural youghurt with some seeds or something for flavour etc.

lol,that SHOULD have read Zumba,I hate this new lappyI used to eat loads of bread,but felt really bloated so cut it out and replaced it with wraps,Ryvita etc and it's made a hell of a diifference,I also noticed my skin improved aswell,so think I may have had some sort of food intolerance.
