IsabeausRose... i dont know how to add friends but you can add me :) CharGillott - walking is great, elliptical can be a great workout Livendive - your doing excellent, keep it up, the shoulder will not stop you for a week i think. I had mine operate on last year, i was fine for walking after 4/5 days, just arm in a sling

Ive had so many conflicting reports on diet coke, i really do not know, but i stopped drinking it for 3 weeks (all soda) and now it just tastes bad (far to sweet). I now drink blackcurrant/lemon and lime concentrate with water.

so as a test this is the sunset the other night over the lake that i walked. Mall23 - im glad your back, friend me if you want support...i love the my outdoor gym :) OhMsDiva - 11000 a day is great, upto to 12000 you are doing amazing, I love the fact i get clarity of my thoughts on my walks Smithy08js - start with 10…

hello again all, sorry its been a while. I am now down 36 lbs, and increased my walk to over 100 km a week doing around 18 km a day. Can someone guide me on, how to upload a photo so i can show a before and current.

So just as a comment really, but with regard to holding a door open for a woman, I was brought up with manners and respect in the UK, so regardless of age or size, the door will be held open. I have been fit, and ive been morbidly obese, currently losing weight, but the confidence is certainly cyclical, and the attention…

So check in time, now done 33lb, so officially one third the way there. My feet need a nice massage but other than that im doing great. have completed the samsumg health avocado challenge today, so far in August ive done 201000 steps, which for me is absolutely amazing and shows how life changing walking can be. I am so…

UK here, but ive sent you a request. We could challenge each other

Derbyshire here, Hello all

Dilvish - I am sorry to hear of your condition, I dont know how long you have been using the pool, but give it time. Confessions - welcome back to walking, its great outdoors MarcA1218 - agree totally, though I have the samsung watch.

So today i walked 7.3km in under 1hour 15 minutes, doing a fast walk. Considering i started about a month ago and i was knackered walking 1.6km ive made great progress. My aim is to walk 10km at a fast pace without a break before end of August. Then i can progress hopefully to walking 15km (10 miles) without killing myself…

I am using my samsung s2 watch. anything over 10mins its breaks down into distance, time and cals if you believe them

So good news on my part, now down 30lbs, weight has flew off me this past week. Im averaging the 20000 steps a day, the fresh air is wonderful and i feel so much better in myself

dressed up in several layers, just start walking outside, but have a scarf covering your mouth and nose to protect you. You will be amazed at how fast it can move the weight and alot your body it you commit to it

So to update, according to my phone, I averaged 17040 steps a day, average distance of 8.11 miles, average calorie burn of 1028 (doubtful) and average steps at healthy pace 15012 per day.

so only 19000 steps today, as busy life got in the way, but its all good. although on my walk i got absolutely soaked through. all clothes had to go on radiators as soon as i got in.

mizroxy13, i 100% agree do the one you love. earlnabby, i will save one set from jeans and tops, the rest will go to charity, i refuse to put the weight back on this time. So far today upto 22000 steps and still got chores like shopping to do and a little evening walk planned, so should end the day north of 25000. Ive had…

yay indeed to walking, just done another hours worth walking round a lake, it was beautiful. I certainly sweat a fair bit, but for the weight loss, its worth the two showers a day

awildwoman - hello, thanks for the tip, i will have a look for Jenny Ford its amazing how ive changed my approach to life, i walk to town now, and walk to the shops. its not even midday in the UK and ive done 11000 steps. total weight drop is now 27lbs in under a month

Hello Nykkismom, im so sorry to hear about your accident, i hope you are alot better health wise. Walking is doing amazing things for me at the minute, my waist line, my shoulder line, my face all thinned down, calf muscle up, obviously with the help of a calorie deficit.

Hello all, welcome to new people, So today ive managed several walks clocked up 22000 steps, just very tired today as didnt sleep well. Shanesemathis - well done on the 50lb, calorie counting, i dont input more than two little walks on here and half the calories for it. I have a polar kit here somewhere, i will have to…

Brittdee88 - thats a good plan, i get a couple of miles in early morning before work. Bigjonb4116 - WOW, congratulations, that is serious work. Im planning on cross training later this year when i fit out what will be the room for my home gym. So yesterday i managed 22000 steps, had a lovely 5 mile walk through a woodland…

paulwatts/divinewander i agree that the calories are wildly inaccurate on mfp. I log only half the walks and reduce the calories down. Ive realised the clarity in my mind when out walking, its actually really good so sort out my thoughts on a walk and i love that as i can see that continuing through life. So far today one…

slimyslimgym - well done, my dog died 2 years ago unfortunately, but he is with me on every walk. Ive done 20200 steps today and had 1500 calories, so im hopeful of the same energy levels tomorrow. Only 3 days to my weigh in, so hopeful of a few more pounds gone

Derbyshire here

So to update, yesterday i walked 20187 steps and kept to 1654 calorie intake. Am feeling good, lots more energy. today, i have started with a good walk for 35 minutes clocking up over 5000 steps in the pouring rain. Breakfast to be a warm porridge. 21ttomlinson - have added you cherykdumais - 86 pounds WOW congrats…

so its noon here in UK, dont 11000 steps so far with 3 walks, hoping to add another 9000 steps through this afternoon/evening. Have joined in on the samsung health app for 200000 steps a month, which i think will be fun. Got in a pair of jeans today that i havent worn for 18 months so thats cool, i seem to have a wardrobe…

as for progress pictures i will take some, unfortunately the lost of 2 inch of the waist and huge reduction in the size of my stomach has already happened, but i will start from now and every so often upload to show the progress. I want to say thankyou for the wishes of good luck, and i wish everyone luck in their journey.…

same here, but off for 6 months. Ive started the calories deficit, but due to injuries exercise has been limited, therefore i am simply walking alot, now upto 15000 steps a day. Its actually quite enjoyable

Derbyshire here, feel free to add me

not in Birmingham, but not that far away. You should look at the council website for your area and check if they have a gym listed and if they do what classes they run. It will be much much cheaper
