Thread: Ok dust down the cobwebs for the new me!

I'm Austrailan so remember covertions are hard

I'm 5ft 7 and a half (the half is important ), means I'm taller than you

I weight 10 stone I believe, or 65k. For that height, it's healthy to be upto 71k's but to me that's a bit too much so I try to stick to 65, (63) is where I used to be and would love to be and maybe could be again So your aim is perfect.

All that you are doing is fine, it takes time to lose weight and you could also add in muscle weight remember, so the scales don't always tell the story.

I found that breakfast is important for energy. I also have IBS, so I steer clear of lactose, but strangly, most of the time can eat eggs? Which I thought helped create the problem. It's believed that stress triggers IBS, go figger I think stress triggers everything... So dairy, in general, spicy foods and too much meat seems to trigger alot of people with this... Pasta I have to admit I don't eat alot of.

Back to the weight....I was 71 for a while..

I started eating wholemeal bread (that's not gross), haha. 1 egg, or an egg white omlete for breakfast...

Tuna and salad for lunch, or a veg soup.

Fish, or lean meat no more than 200grms, or chicken breast small and loads of veggies/salad and I'd eat those first. No cream sauces, only tomato based, or beans with a little garlic, or steamed bok choy/asian greens with a teaspoon of soy sauce, or salad dressing, lemon and soy sauce.

I lost those extras in 3 months from changing "the sauces" and made pretty much all my veggies green, once a week I'd have potatoes as mash or roasted ...

Also, I don't do sit ups but if I did, that would definately help when you start putting a little bit back on the side, there that stomach is the worse huh
