@quzzdragon have you thought of also adding in body measurements to your regime of seeing how things are going? Scales can be so deceiving and fluctuate from day to day especially around the girly time. You sound like you're doing an awesome job. And congrats on the one notch tighter. Those jeans are in sight

@NeoFresh Firstly well done you for starting on your journey. The hardest part is starting and you've done it so kudos to you for that. Secondly forget the word should. Should is the killer of all things motivational. Forget what you think you "Should" feel like. Notice how you feel now and if you don't like that then make…

I'm thinking of getting a kettleball at home so i can do some strength training at night while i'm at work. Well done you

50 extra sleep twice during the day because i'm the kind of person that needs a good 10-12 hours of sleep or I don't function. I get up late arvo because I'm required to, plus I've always had my main sleep plus a smaller cat nap. Just how my body is wired. I was talking to my psychologist today about the whole when is the…

Listen to your body hon. It knows what i needs

You will get there 50 Extra. Like me you're starting to do stuff and your body will be converting some of that exercise is to muscle build as well as fat burn. Try to look at the overall picture not just one aspect of it. That's what im going to do from now on Total determination thats a great read about HRM's . I use a…

Thanks I have a vari desk where i can sit and stand depending on how i feel. i think i need to put that back into action. it has an app with it that shows you how many calories you burn while standing. im just waiting until i drop a bit more weight so im not putting undue stress on my already slightly arthritis knees. I…

You sound like you're all over this Kettiecat. Awesome work. I live for the day i get up to a workout like yours. You are going to be awesome for that fantastic cruise

Thanks guys. 50 extra i know that routine. I work from home and at nights. May daily routine from monday night to friday afternoons is sit at a desk and answer calls for 8 hrs. Get up from my desk and walk 5 paces max to my bedroom and sleep for most of the day. I get up around 3 in the afternoon and perhaps runs some…

Hey Sharon. I understand the pain thing. I found when i was in pain with my knees, I would do pool work. It supports your body and just helps you stay active. Having said that there are also some days where your body (and mind ) say nope no dice and that's ok too. Listening to your body is just as important

hey 50 im just new to this blog thing and loved reading your story. I'll add you when im finished here. I too am on the beginning of a journey and blogged my first post this morning. I love the idea of the photos. I took photos at the begining of Jan and then have just done the one month later photos. I was a bit…

aobilor i get the hunger thing when you first start. It's where i have always failed in the past. It wasn't until a friend of mine had a gastric sleeve and was talking to me about head hunger that I really stopped and thought about what she meant. When i first started this time i was always "hungry" and looking for…

good luck with your journey

I have been logging since early January too after being around on and off for a couple of years. Like you failure is not an option this time. Feel free to add me anyone

I have a charge HR and i find it invaluable. it syncs with mfp and the info i get about my active minutes, Heart rate and amount of time I've had my heart rate in cardio or fat burning zone is invaluable. I also use it to track my weight. If these are things you are looking to track and in conjunction with mfp it is so…

I have also always been heavy. This year is my year to get fit and healthy. My partner is also type 2 diabetic and I want to set an example for her. I want to lose between 35-40kg. That's around 75-85lb in your speak. We can do this. I will add you on Fitbit and we can motivate each other

This morning I fought through all the voices in my head saying I couldn't exercise. You know knee is sore, I'd rather sleep etc. I did 30 mins on the exercise bike. A couple of 30 sec breathers but I won over my head. So happy with myself
