Does anyone know any places where I can buy almond milk for cheap? I'd love to try it and see if my mam can start getting it with the grocery shop but I know she won't consider buying it unless it's cheaper than normal milk.


Quick search shows that Asda sell it for £1 for a litre (Alpro Almond Milk). Sainsbury's and Tesco's sell the same thing, but for £1.80/£1.70.
You can also make almond milk yourself

Eugh, feeling all lethargic and gross thanks to TTOTM. Also making me crave carbs.

I can't believe I'm writing this cos I never tell anyone outside my family what I weigh but it's the Internet so.......basically at 5ft7 I weighed 120 (now 99)and when I started in the first month is when I lost a lot of weight quickly so I think my body reacted positively to the change and exercise ...plus I was eating 1200 calories a day which was very stupid cos and I soon found out it was below what I needed :frown:. My weight loss is not soo drastic anymore and is much more stable and normal :smile:


Don't worry about it, we're all open here! Too open sometimes haha. That's not too bad then, and well done on getting the weight down :biggrin:. I've been on 1,200 before.. miserable right?! Much better to raise it a little bit :biggrin:.
Ew, exams and TOTM = not such a great combination! Theres no rubbish in the house though, only fruit and a seriously basic food cupboard haha. So I am resisting!

Only had some Alpen porridge today, probably gonna make some tuna pasta in a while with mixed veg. Probably have that for tea too.. is pasta twice in a day bad?

Been on a nice walk and done a fair amount of weight work today. Hoping to get something else done before bed time, but tomorrow is my set day for exercise anyway :-).

I'm always sooo hungry in the evenings. Is it OK to save the majority of my calories for the evening? Also may I ask how many calories a day is everyone on?
^ I'm on 1500 net per day :smile:

Done SO much exercise today. My dad is ill so I've been running around after him, tidying the house, walking the dog, going to the gym, had to apply for a passport so walked to the post office as well. My feet are killing me! :p:

(obviously I didn't log all of this as exercise but I haven't stopped for most of the day haha)

Thanks, that's helpful. Have you always been on roughly that amount may I ask? Sorry to hear your Dad is ill, hope he gets better soon. Sounds like you've been a busy calorie burning bee though :smile:

No because then you wont burn them off and they will just equal fat when your sleeping !
Try and overt your eating habits so you lower what you eat at night and eat more in the morning:smile:

Well, I know for a fact that metabolism doesn't quite work like that, I was more worried about not being able to sleep on a full stomach and getting sick, although I struggle anyway as I'm usually pretty hungry by the time I'm falling asleep anyway. Thanks though....any other thoughts?

I generally eat more in the late afternoons/evenings - it's just when I get hungriest. I've never found it to cause me any problems sleeping (I'm like you - I struggle to sleep if I'm really hungry)

Mmmm, stir fry for dinner. Was feeling lazy, so I bought one of those pre-chopped veg packs, the straight-to-wok noodles, and a sauce. Lazy but delicious :tongue:

Is it bad that I am going over on my sugar allowance on MFP if most of it is fruit sugar?

I don't know really, it's still sugar and hence bad if you don't use it. But then if you're under your calories and exercising how can you not lose weight?

In short - i have no idea
