    Gained 4 lbs. Wish I knew what I am doing wrong, but work as hard as I can at exercising 30 minutes daily, and trying to use low fat food, and I am not losing weight, But the doctor is going to check my thyroid maybe that is the problem

    When you go to your GP ask him/her for a full blood count, thyroid function and everything else.

    Were you advised to eat low fat, or have you bought into the myth that has been perpetuated these 20 years? Because in that time, in spite of 'low fat, fat reduced', you name it, the national obesity rate is higher than it ever was.

    Have a look at this: https://www.fatlossbootcampessex.co.uk/fat-loss-articles

    I'm going to a seminar next week entitled 'The Big Fat Myth about Weight Loss Exposed' and will see what I pick up there.

    Re. Pret - I am not surprised at all. It's all so sugar and salt laden, much like Mcdonald's, which is the company that owns it.

    That's what makes it taste so good i suppose!

    It should def be considered junk food, and not the healthy option that ppl think it is.

    Someone at work once told me that their cheese sandwich has the same cals as a big mac! :eek:

    big macs are only 495 cals, so i could eat 7 a day on maintance, so there not that bad cal wise, there over processed !!!!! so i wouldn't eat them :p

    i think maccy ds sold there small share in USA pret a while ago as well

    Hey,

    Just want to report a STS for last week. Hopefully will get the net connected at home this week so will be able to pop on a bit more :)

    I'm not sure why I'm not losing anything, I'm biking a lot still and have took up zumba! Perhaps my thyroxine level is off...

    That's about all I know so I can't be more specific - apparently they'll get her to hold different things to see if she's low in them or got an allergy or something and then if required advise on things to correct whatever they find wrong or out of balance.

    Fred - sounds like Kineisiology. Not a fan myself but some people swear by it.
    I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once
