The meal plan thing really helps. Please keep posting them. This is one of my favorite diet/exercise sites. Simple and healthy. No starvation.

A little tip:
I used to mix bran flakes and muesli and add banana on top for breakfast – high quality cereal- no added sugar, preservatives etc nd one day i decided to weigh it out and see how many calories were in it – 800! I was shocked to say the least.
Now i have a bowl of fruit and add cereal on top. I have a little bowl that holds 100 cals worth of cereal so i fill that and dd it to my fruit every day (probably easier than weighing it all out the night before)
I have been snacking on dried apricots and nuts – keep a tiny tupperware box in your bag
and vary your dried fruits snd nuts daily (be sure to check for added sugar/syrup)

Hi Mel!
Of course people are still following you! I was so happy to receive your e-mail! Just in time
Same thing, as you described, happened to me! I start today as well.. I am just on my way to gym.. Could you maybe tell me more about your diet? Like how you prepare that vegetable wrap? Do you have any other ideas? Like which soya milk etc (I thought “So Good” is pretty good.. ) Ayway, have 2 Oz flights (Sidney) next month, so I can get my groceries there and bring it backto Dubai 
Keep on writing!
Corinne

Are you burning 500 calories on each machine? Also what vegetables are in the Roasted Vegetable wrap and what kind of bread are you using?
Glad to have you back and can’t wait for updates:)

I have just started writing a blog and i find it really helps to organise your thoughts. In late January i will be doing the lemonade master cleanse and i will post all the way through.
Can anyone recommend any good blogs i can follow?

My New Years resolution is to get slimmer and fitter again, so this is really helpful 
The meal plans are a great idea. Also, as I take a packed lunch to eat everyday, I would be so thankful if you could post some healthy ideas for them. I also get stuck, and I know a sandwich isn’t the best for me.

Hello, amazing, I’m so gonna try that meal plan it seems healthy and it really helps me cause I usually don’t know what to eat or get bored with a plan (not knowing how to combine food) and ended up eating a bunch of calories, fat, basiclly junk food. Please keep posting them. I’m begging you =)

You already are nice and skinny! But one thing i noticed was that i dont hink you are consuming enoughf calories in a day. That meal plan is less than 1000 calories a day and when you eat less then 1300 cals a day you end up loosing muscel and screws up your matabalism so your better of eating more food. Im just saying this not to be rude butn i dont want you to promote unhealthy eating habits.
