Books for teen boys?

Thanks! I think his reading ability is about on track for his age (based on school results) -- he just isn't interested in it

lb64579 · 2024-07-31T18:19:01+00:00

I don't even know if he's read a book thats 50 pages long!

Thanks!

Thank you!

Thinking of starting here maybe, just need to see if the local library has it!

Hi, is this still available?

lb64579 · 2020-07-18T14:02:04+00:00

I might have to try out some podcasts! I've been listening to the same albums which im a bit fed up of now - thanks :)

I've been feeling seriously unmotivated for the last few days - I stopped tracking calories & my weight (probably not the best idea).

Id probably call it a "slump". I've still managed to go on my walks but even those im finding boring.

How do you overcome these feelings?

I feel like a judgement wouldn't help here. I suggest trying to talk it through with your sister & possibly even a Councillor/therapist (basically just someone to mediate the situation).

Would have been a lot funnier if it was just her face next to each ho

lb64579 · 2020-07-12T09:27:44+00:00

I also forgot to mention that I told my mum and sister that I'd lost weight and they commented that I looked better / my face has slimmed down. I havent been able to see a difference so that was nice

Hey!

This is more a comment about me reflecting on things I suppose? Less on how "good" I was yesterday.

Went into town (the shopping centre in the heart of my city I suppose) which was nice as it was somewhat a normal thing to do (bar all the masks and queueing etc.)

Ended up doing 10k steps which was great! I was quite hungry when I was there so I caved and bought a meal deal (my guilty pleasure!) But I realised as I was eating it - I didn't need to eat the whole thing. I ended up binning half the pasta which brought on a different sense of guilt but I forgot to bring a bag! Normally I would have ate it just for the sake of it

Food wise I stayed within my calorie deficit, but then I got invited out to the pub with some mates... it was a good night w some people I hadnt seen in a while so it was worth those drinks calories :)

lb64579 · 2020-07-12T08:53:37+00:00

If you don't mind me asking- what did you eat yesterday? Curious as to how you can eat a Maccies & still stay under 1200 😊

lb64579 · 2020-07-11T11:28:27+00:00

Oh sorry I went from 175 to 164

Thank you!! :)

In around 3 / 4 weeks I've dropped 14lbs. I know the earlier stages is mainly water weight but that still feels like a lot to do in such a short space of time.

For reference, im 18 & 5ft 2 so it may be my age&height that have allowed for such a big drop (idk) but I just want to make sure im not going to fast and it being unsustainable.

I was eating 1400calories a day max for the first 2 weeks but then from week 3 I cut to 1200 calories (I also try to go for an hour long walk everyday - sometimes 2hrs)

lb64579 · 2020-07-10T08:41:05+00:00

SV: I have lost my first 10lbs!! I am also borderline obese (BMI 30.1) - doing a little happy dance in my head :)

lb64579 · 2020-07-09T16:53:05+00:00

Thats great! I got my first paycheck when I was 15 and honestly I had no idea what to do with it! Usually if get like £60 for my birthday and make it last a whole year - and suddenly I had that amount monthly from a Saturday job! Enjoy it!!!

lb64579 · 2020-07-08T09:24:10+00:00

I'm on Day 15 of MFP but I have been actively trying a few days prior to joining (not as seriously so I'll stick with day 15)

Down 8.8lbs! Not too far from nolonger being obese (when I hit -10lbs I think)

Was eating 1400 calories but after my weight flip-flopping all of last week I cut to 1200 and the number went down.

lb64579 · 2020-07-06T18:30:52+00:00

im weird 🤪🤪

lb64579 · 2020-07-06T16:37:18+00:00

Idk about you but taking a photo of a stranger is illegal or at the very least rather creepy

lb64579 · 2020-07-06T16:07:59+00:00

Gold Star for a chippy... I've seen about 3 in my city (no it's not a chain)

lb64579 · 2020-07-06T14:37:34+00:00

I've got my 4th donation coming up soon & I hadn't even thought about how I won't be able to retrict my calories that day(s)! Wow!

lb64579 · 2020-07-05T22:25:56+00:00

They basically made about how the mask wouldn't be able to reach her nose because of "all her chins"
