Tips for Staying Healthy while Working Lots!
I have struggled for the last 6 months to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Partly due to the nature of my job, and the many hours I spend in the workplace in a week, but mainly; dedicating time for myself before work. I have vowed this month to go to the gym before a shift; even if I don't know how long it will be. (I…

Looking for some buddies!
Just joined - I've been a WW member for 1.5 years and have only managed to shift 30 lbs, so I'm trying something different. I'm a scientist, mom, wife, and fallen athlete (having a kid and eating too many fudgeoos will do that). Working while trying to watch my food intake is HARD! (seriously, work is hard anyway) so I'm…

Apr 16th Weigh In
Good morning all, I'm getting back into my running, and completed Week 5 Day 1 of C25K, and did Day 2 this morning. I ran for 8 minutes at a time, twice! :happy: Though I have developed a blister on the side of my foot :grumble: Last night I had KFC. I'm not ashamed. I've been grossly undereating this week, and even with…

I'm 5'3" and 173lbs, aiming for somewhere between 126 and 140 depending on how I'm feeling on any particular day. I have a desk job, where I am literally sat on my backside for 9 hours…

Hello again! It's a lovely Easter bank holiday monday here in the UK, and true to bank holiday form... it's raining... lol :laugh: I've not done my running for yet another week, (due mainly to recovering from my asthma encouraging a flu bug and inciting my lungs into disobedience), but hoping that the weather clears up for…

Hello again! Today will be a great day! I just know it! I'm in a great mood, and feeling very positive! Just completed Week 4 Day 1 of C25K! This means I actually ran for longer than I walked (excluding warm-up/cool-down). Whoop whoop!! :bigsmile: SW: 188 LW: 178.6 CW: 177.2 GW: 140
