Hi all, Anyone out there from ireland that just can't seem to stay away from stews or spuds with loadsa gravy. It would be nice to meet anyone online from ireland with the same problem as me..

xXxXx

Hey, Im in Ireland too! Although I like stew and spuds if that was my only problem Id be flying! Its the chocolate/cake/biscuits and takeaways that are the real killer!!!!!

Whereabouts are you based? Im in Dublin.

tipperary here

Hey, I'm from Galway. Alcohol, and it's subsequent effect on my eating decisions, is my main problem. Might not have that problem/excuse for much longer though. Going in for a gallbladder removal Operation (for gallstones) in two weeks and I've heard that a lot of people can't really drink as a result :-(.

I know that I drink too much and it's the major cause of my weight, but I've been doing pretty well so far and kinda feel like well what's the point of being healthy if I can't enjoy myself. Anyway, it may not have that side-effect on me!

Good luck with the weight loss.

I think i need to get an online weight loss buddy, i mean i love this place but its not the same as having someone to discuss weight issues with whos going through the same thing. My partners been amazing but i cant talk to him about it as he is doing weight training and he doesnt understand what im going through, though he is trying his best to diet with me. Hes been amazing.

but i need someone going through what i am going through, and someone else from ireland would be great

Any takers?

A chubby little Irish lady here!

Seems like ireland have many kinds of pastries, especially because some stores is specialized in traditional food. What is your tips to do diet in ireland?

Another irish lass here. The hardest part of low fat diet is giving up sausages.mmmm I love them. Especially an irish fry up of sausages eggs bacon and black pudding. Sausages and mash. mmmmmmmm I am hungry now.

Turkey or chicken sausages are lower in cals and fat usually!

I'd love to be your weight loss budy. I'm based in Dublin...

I've put on 20kgs over the last two years (stressfull life, bad eating, no exersize, and CHOCOLATE and DRINKING)...but now I'm serious about loosing this weight that I gained. Together we can do it, food does not need to be enemy, we just have to eat for the right reasons..... food cannot be your friend when you are upset, real people can. Food is to enjoy, but why eat food that is goin to clog your arteries in a few years?

Got a sweet tooth? have some yogurt or strawberries instead! Still want sugar? Have some low-low...Drink tea, ditch that starbucks...u dont need it. really dont need it. I've finally come to my senses, and realized...I controll food, food does not controll me. I want to be able to run and not get tired. I'm fecking sick of this shit. I WILL weigh what I used to be. I WILL workout more...I will make a change...
