Weight Loss Resolution

I just may have to borrow Angelica's wii to see if it does help you loose weight. It's certainly a lot more fun then playing most computer games as you have to stand up to play the games.

Wii is my ideal game concept.. I move all over the place when I play a normal game at least this time the character will move with me

Since I started this thread I've put on weight I'm hoping now with my new job I'll have my friends around me again which will hopefully motivate me to get healthy again.

and i dont eat anthing untill lunch time during the week and of a weekend i only really eat dinner but is it true that if you do that you wont actuall lose weight as your metabolism dont start working or something

Yup, well I heard that anyways. Breakfats is what gets your metabolism rates going so you can have snacks and stuff and it digests.

Don't know if this is true but I heard if you don't eat much for a long time you sort of start eating your insides? 'Cause of the chemicals inside your body which digest the food? Or well it does if you have chewing gum and eat nothing. Chewing gum is also good to eat after meals because the stuff inside your body (same acids I think) help digest the food more as your brain thinks your still eating or something x

yeh it is true that if you eat brekkie then it will help you lose weight, eating brekkie speeds up your metabolism. plus you should eat more than one meal a day cos not only is it unhealthy if you dont, but also cos if you cut down on your calorie intake too much then you wont end up losing any weight cos your body will store extra fat cos it will need it built up incase you starve yourself too much. but just eat 3 healthy meals a day and cut down on snacks and you should be ok, make sure you eat at least 1500 calories (as i read somewhere that even if youre dieting you shouldnt eat less than that). and the chewing gum thing could be true cos your digestive system takes at least 20mins to start working after you start eating so if you finish your meal in less time than that you might still feel hungry even if you arent

I have breakfast everyday, I eat 3 meals (salad usually for lunch and then a normal dinner) and I don't snack.. in fact.. yesterday was the first time I had chocolate since christmas day... and I haven't eaten a pack of crisps in 3 months

thats ther ight way to go about it, i would eat breakfast but my body cant handle it. I feel really ill after it. So i usually have 2 meals a day, with no snacking and since christmas i have been drinking lots more water.

Jan 20th.. I said I lost 4lb.. Since then I have been on a holiday and been busy with tests and stuff and now altogether I lost 8lb!! So lost 4lb in about 2 months.. without trying much.. I really do need to start excerising more though as I only do swimming for an hour a week and I have 1 hour P.E a week now. I really need to cut down on the sweet stuff. I want to reach my target of loosing 16lb (a bit over a stone) so I am far away from the risk of being overweight for my height (I am not now but quite close I think). Woohoo.. half way there lol.

well thats me 5 weeks without smoking so no to tackle the weight. I need to lose 4 stone by september for my holiday. So started yesterday No chips (which i lived on) and i am also snacking on snakajacks which are lovely cause i get hungry and bored very easily lol

if you like fruit and veg, bring in a lunch box with raw veg and fruit in slices.. leave it on your desk and snack on them instead when you are bored
