Wow... No way I've given you 40 something.. I'd have guessed no more than 32/33.. You look great :)
Allot to be said for good aging genes but you obviously look after yourself...

I do try to look after myself .. And drink loads water ... Eat as healthy as I can .. But I enjoy wine and vodka and take aways :) but I mostly cook from scratch .. I don't cook from jars or packets ..
I run too twice/three times a week and go a class of resistance exercises per week too ...
I look better now iv lost a stone .. With another half stone to go .!!

Thankyou for those kind words .. I lack self confidence and don't necessarily feel attractive .. So it's nice for finding to say that to me :)

Well, you look stunning.. ;)
Well done the great loss.. Its so hard when yer so close to goal so fair play..

PS.. I'm knackered just reading the exercise you do per week lol

I too cook from scratch most of the time.. I do have lazy days too tho, I will admit it!
I don't like ready meals n processed foods but they don't agree with my tummy either and cause pain and irritablity so I've 2 reasons to stay away from them.. I enjoy cooking tho so I like to cook from scrath.. Have just moved into a house with my BF so will have to teach him a few easy recipes to cook without jars!!! so i'm not stuck cooking the whole time lol :D

Lol ... Yes you will :)
I do try and look smart too and never leave the house without putting my face on and doing my hair x
Losing this last 7 lbs is a nightmare ... I'm just reading a book on my kindle called "escaping the diet trap" ... Written by a dr .. It's very enlightening and I think we are doing it all wrong .!! Basically he says not to count calories .. Eat lots protein .. And fat but pull back on carbs ... Gives all the science behind it too ..!!! To have sugar . Obv in limited quantities rather than sweetner .. And to have ordinary day stuff like yogurts rather than diet ones ...!!!

What free food is filling? I have stopped and started this diet loads of times and am now back on my second week, I struggle filling myself. Today I have eaten half a water melon, banana, 8 cherry toms, 1 slice of bread, lettuce, spring onion and a serving of boursin and am still hungry

Nuts ...!!!! Protein .... Tin tuna .. Low carbs low fat and high protein .. Mix with a little mayo .. Protein fills you ..!!!! nuts ate great ... But obv not in huge quantities ... They keep your insulin levels level .. It's the insulin that turns everything to fat ... Your safe with protein and some fat ... But watch your portions .... Maybe 20 whole almonds ..,!!!! Give it a go .... Or the tuna x

Thank you :) So how many points would 20 whole almonds be? I may change my lunches at work to include some form of meat as you suggested and I do love tuna ! xx

About 4 points ..!!! But if you think of a choc bar at 5 points or a pkt of crisps at 4 points .... I don't think I need to point out the math lol
For lunch Tuna salad chicken salad ..!! Try not to have a lot of refined starchy carbs ... If you really "need" a lot of carbs then have a small amount in your salad ..!! But you can get the carbs you need from fruit and veg .!! I'm not an advocat for Atkins coz I don't believe in keytosis but limit your carbs .. 100-150g a day is all you need x it's protein that fills you x

I know I loved ed for the fast pace, I know I have so much to learn! I agree you look to young to have all this experience! the weight loss is very slow but I've had the last few weekends off really so I need to get my bum in gear! I am 9.8 but I did get down to 9.6 a few months ago :(

See that book sounds just what I need I'm close to goal and my boyfriend is all about the protein and the weight is falling off him!! He eats what he wants weekends but for me I can't get away with that! I love carbs but really need to cut down. Do you do your own thing then rather than counting?
