slimmy120

So best not having liquid type meals eg protein shakes, soups etc, eat it works better? correct?

Was just thinking the other day, have my shoes stretched, or did my feet shrink, think my feet arent as fatty as they were, well my hands and rest of me face etc arent.

Yep my port is around the waist and noticably sticks out, have lost 28 kilos and is more noticable now, as that is the slimest part of me, so yes am interested too.

I find craig harpers website, and appetite right website are two great motivational and informative websites, does anyone know of any other good sites, if so please share, thanx, and of course this is by far the best.

Well i am going to stick to good wholegrain carbs when have carbs and up the protein, but dont know how i fitted that frankfurta i had for lunch on corn thins and quarter of cup of peas for lunch into the equation, shouldnt of had such junk -- frankfurta, but hey it was boiled not a fried greasy sausage so when for the better alternative, got to keep the better choices happening, even as in this case being the better of the two evils.

Going to schedule 30 to 40 minute walk, either outside or treadmill everyday, because of the treadmill hey can even do more no matter what time, going to try other excercise to, i also have the walker type arm and leg type machine, so here goes will definately make that effort and in turn it gota pay off, or at least make me more toned.

I seem to need my skinny flat white fix once a day otherwise i have a headache, but will keep my coffee to one or two a day. If i dont have my fix get a headache, but i am also trying to cut down and give up smoking too.

Thank you for your reply, my friend has not been doing excercise, were as i have. but when i get filled next time will stay on the liquids for two days, i am eating everything - but sensible foods, so i am changing my life so will stick to that then, even though may be slower i know will keep off this time.

You look great, your a new man, well well done!!

Wow Bel have read posts to me and others, but wow dont you look great.

Thanx for the site Lulu will check out now, as i want to be slimmy and not a fatty. ta

Thanx your starting to head me in the right direction

Thank you for telling me what you doing, worked for you, will try and get on the right track as you are,thanx

Hi i was wondering how you are going, any problems, what you eating,how much , how much have you lost - my starting weight was 102 and i have lost 27.7 kilos so far, what has happened how are you going??

Can you tell me as it seems lots of people lose weight by low carb and high protein, what it does why it is so good, are there any things i should do? i know high protein not good for kidneys, so does that mean drink drink drink more water. please summerise what needs to be done . many thanks, seems to work for you guys, was reading the low carb threads, thanx.

So you did away with carb, does that mean potatoes, crispbreads, and beans as well? tell me what you have done away with, thanx for your advice

My friend had the lap band placed one month after me had less to lose than me and had lost 20kg more than me so far, she says some days or at least 3 or 4 a week all she has is 5 or 6 protein soups the soups are 300calories each. Is this healthy to do? she says she will only do till she reaches her goal which is another 10kilos? anyone else doing this? her doctor told her to have fluids for 2 to 3 days after the tightening, mine never told me this, i have had 4 fills, she has had 3 so far. Her doctor told her doing what she is doing was good if it worked for her. any ideas??

Thanx will followup all the brand names, and thought yeh why not ask in my health store.

I only east whole meal or german rye bread, will try to stick to corn crispbreads, and yep i will remember the carbs as hunger pills good idea, thanx.

Well i have lost enough weight to boost the excercise now, so want to lose more weight so if excercise going to pay of with better weight loss, got to get in with more omp and do.

Has anyone noticed if the weeks you excercise, that you are losing more weight than the weeks you dont? Can someone motivate me with examples that they know this to be a true fact. My doctor says the most weight you lose is with what you are not eating not the excercise, but others says differently.

I keep having to tell myself, and make myself believe iiiiii am in control of what i eat, that means stop dont have another piece of bread, or better still dont have any bread --- i try and try, some days i am so good. but yep one day at a time, it is paying off 27 kilos since 18sep2007, okay havent done as well as others, but boy oh boy will keep at it as my shape is changing --- for the better, i wont let my favourite foods ruin it, i wont let them get to the better of me. i never want to be fat again - still am but working on not being, hey isnt that why we all on these boards to get motivated, comeon lets motivate each other we can do it, the band is there just to start us of but basically it is all up to us - we could sit there realistically having milkshakes, and icecream all day but we aint going to are we?

I am in Australia, there is benefibre, but yes that is only fibre not protein, so i too await responses.

One thing i notice everyone is doing, and was advised to do here on the board is to have protein, notice you guys all do, certain this stops the hunger, and i will follow in your steps, keep up all the good work.

Good ideas. will mix fruit and museli with my low fat yougurt, then when go to the doc ask if that is okay, i have been having low fat feta and a little low fat sliced, but the cheese is what i could easily overdo , so got to be careful.I take a calcium tablet everyday, he knows that as mum as oesteoprosis.
