That BBQ sounds Awesome!!!! Are you sure you're not Aussie???? You'd do well down here with your culinary skills on the barbie. So April was a bit disappointing for both of us. May is a new month and we need to settle into some serious weight loss and health gain. I have outlined my goals for the month on my blog. What are…

Feeling much better today. Thankfully only a 48 hr thing but still feeling pretty tired. I think that's going to be a constant state now i'm back at work on nights though. I go back to the gym on Wednesday (my time) and I will get my new program which I will definitely post here. I'm hoping my first 1:1 can be on Friday…

Nah not a huge loss. I think it was a misfire on the scales. There's no way i can lost 1.5kg one day and then put 2.5kg on the next. I have consistently been closer to the higher reading for the last 2 days. Especially given I have been unwell and laying in bed for most of the weekend. Also drinking fanta as when i'm sick…

Nice work on the job well done. Sometimes a change like a new job and or a hair cut can be just the spark you need to get going and get things moving in an upward direction

That meat BBQ sounds kinda awesome. I could definitely go one of those (it's the Aussie in me). And you know sometimes it's good to say im not exercising today. You're not being lazy you're listening to your body. Sometimes it tried to slip a shifty in and you go nah we're exercising but other times you listen to it and go…

Sounds like you are getting all set to do some serious moving. Way to go. Those cookies sound really nice. I might have to try them.

Just read this blog article. Thought it might be useful http://blog.myfitnesspal.com/how-often-should-you-weigh-yourself/?utm_source=mfp&utm_medium=Facebook

yeah i have read those. Thanks for the link. They wont take a sample of fluid cause they are just putting it down to me being fat. I'm going to go to the gym today but not do any leg work. Just arm stuff

Welcome back. Great to see you

Mate I have every confidence in you that you can do anything you set your mind to. So all being well with your knee i know you are going to do everything within your power to get to that goal. AND I will be here with you every step of the way plugging at my own goal and rooting for us both to succeed. We are all over this…

Your boss sounds like a keeper and so does the job. Really happy for you that you have found something you like

Basically there are 4 exercises that we do at the start of the challenge. They have been chosen as they have no variables so one is 300m on treadmill (walk or run) / 300m on Rower at set tension same for everyone. Not sure what the other two are but you get the idea. We do these at the beginning and at the end. The person…

@50extra i definitely did pull the trigger on the fitness challenge and I have purchased the top package for $230 which gives me an individual 6 week program and 6 30 min PT sessions with the trainer. I get my program and do my first fitness test on the 3rd of May. I am totally pumped for this. it's going to go off!!!!!

So Massive victories on the scale and off the scale today. It's been a bit of a big day. Scales: I jumped on the scales for my official Monday weight and it came back at 110kg (242.5lb). First goal reached!!!!! It has taken me a bit longer than first thought (16 weeks) but then I think my first goals were a bit…

Hey Mate Bummer about your knee still being on the fritz. Hopefully with a bit of rest it will be right for some light riding once you get to Siberia. I would definitely recommend the watch. It is giving me so much information and it also is telling me when ive been sitting too long and when i need to move. Also tells me…

We are all over this. Sadly though I will always hate the heat. Even when I was young and thin I hated it. I think it comes from being born on a 40 degree day in the middle of a heatwave.
-
I must say i'm a bit of a gadget person so I love the techy stuff. I have a fitbit Aria scale and now a Polar M400 watch. These two things have been an awesome investment for my weightloss journey. BUt as you say if the Wii Fit is doing it for you why bother. Everyone uses different things.
-
Mate I am loving the new watch. It's become like my conscience. Everytime i sit still for longer than 30 mins i get an inactivity marker on my stats for the day. It's like a triangle of shame. It gives me so much information and I can follow everything on both my phone and the web plus the watch itself as well. Best thing…
-
Wow you are all over the place. I hope you're taking time out to rest that knee and get it healing. Look after yourself in Russia
-
@50extra you're on. Let's smash this thing. My mojo is definitely back. I'm feeling quite organised and really good about things. I'm loving the meal prep and all the advantages it brings. It is just so easy to say oh i'll have that today and bang there it is. it is so worth it. And I'm finding that i'm doing a better job…
-
Wow 50 you've done some awesome stuff. Great to hear about the minimal weight gain but bummer about the knee. As you say hopefully just a minor strain and it will heal quickly. Just baby it along. I hope the trip goes ok with your mate. Nothing better than reconnecting with old friends. Maybe some time in cooler Russia…

@Quzzdragon12 happy birthday for this week. Whatever you end up doing I hope you have a blast. In terms of your weight loss, the best thing you can do is change up your exercise. Your body gets used to doing the same thing all the time and needs a bit of a shake up every now and then. Try something different and use a few…

@LottieStanley your determination will take you far. Good on you for applying for a job to get out and about. That's one think i miss about my job. Even though it's awesome working from home, I miss the face to face contact with people. I will keep my fingers crossed for you

I stepped on the scales this morning. It's driving me nuts flying blind and not knowing what my eating and training is doing to my body. I think I should be good in terms of not going crazy with the weighing now im back at work. Because I work nights, there really isn't a good time for me to weigh so that means there are…
-
I wasn't around much last week. I seriously lost my mojo. I think it was a culmination of a few things. Not getting the results I wanted on my body comp scan, not weighing myself, going back to work which threw out the nice routine i had going for the last 6 weeks and being that time of the month. Good news is I believe I…
-
oh i feel your pain. I'm suffering the same ills. This being a woman thing has a lot to answer for some days
-
I think i am the only person on the planet who hasn't watched/ is not interested in watching GOT. Most of my friends are into it and also The walking Dead. Can't say im excited about either. But hey if you haven something you like then go for it. Can't really help you much with the heat thing. Living in Australia we get…
-
This is something i need to know about too. Especially after training and recovery. Currently my recovery is very very slow and is hindering my ability to get to the gym enough. Will watch with interest
-
Hope you're having an awesome time away and getting some much deserved rest

I've put myself on a self imposed weighing ban until 1st May because i was getting obsessed with the weighing thing too. It was getting me down so no scales for the next 2-3 weeks
