    @ricky1040
    Thats a great achievement I’m the same with pain, it would be great if we were all pain free. Keep up the good work.

    @jgound
    Hi I hope the weigh in goes well for you, and giving up the biscuits should definitely help.

    Agreed @ricky1040 weight loss is hard for people without any health problems but much harder if you have other issues to contend with.

    Thanks @Lou67 I think everyone on here doing it is doing well, I did break my diet yesterday on an ice cream cone in the park but refused the flake, as we did lots of walking I think I walked the sugar off lol

    Has anyone tried smoothies I've just made one with strawberry and blueberry  yogurt and milk and it's really tasty  and great for getting 5 a day in and nutrition

    @Sandy_123 smoothies are great but you have to be careful to not have too many as fruit has a lot of sugar in it and they are easier to down than just eating fruit!

    But I agree great for nutrition.

    Like everything just have it in moderation.

    Yes with sugars but they are natural sugars you can also make smoothies with veg too.

    @Sandy_123
    Yes everyone is doing well and trying our best.
    Oh a treat now and again is fine I think, I had a cone last week minus the flake 😤 lol when I went away for the day.

    I think it's important to have treats, what's the point in being about if you don't have the odd treat.

    Right...that does it now!!! Lol lol. Everyone wants to lose weight....except flipping me. I got weighed today after blood test and I'm DOWN to....67KG!!! AHHHHHH!! I was 73kg ish pre-foot operation. Fed up of being slim, ectomorph and wobbly!!! It seriously impacts my self esteem & confidence in many many ways and I'm always mentally defensive!! Any tips.

    Kalps are you meaning you want to put on muscle? Or fat?

    I think it's common for blokes to want to be muscly for image reasons but when I see blokes who are muscly I always think they are trying to compensate for something by looking "hard"

    Not saying it's bad to be muscly and if thats what you really want then go for it!!

    But just trying to say if you have underlying self esteem issues maybe an idea is to get to the bottom of it with a therapist, as opposed to plastering over it by getting big?

    I would say the same to women who say they need to be really skinny, don't plaster over it by getting skinny, to get to the bottom of the issues.

    Hope this makes sense? Sorry if I spoke out of turn just my thoughts :)
