I started weight training a month or two ago. Up until now, I’ve either trained with a friend or used free PT sessions from signing up to the gym. Today was the first time I went alone. To the scary free weights section of the gym, where I was the only woman. 8 months ago I couldn’t even go to the supermarket alone as I…

I saw a programme on BBC where they had different groups trying different methods for reducing cellulite. The most effective by far was dry brushing. I can’t remember what the programme was called, but I think Michael Moseley was on it. The results were actually quite dramatic.

Yesterday I managed to do 3x10 reps of 5kg below my one rep max. Really loving weight lifting!

Thanks @Davidsdottir and @sardelsa, I thought the same thing about maintenance but I don’t know that much about it. I LOVE lifting heavy but at the moment I can’t afford a gym membership - my friend works at the YMCA and I am able to use the gym there for free but it’s about a 50minute drive so only really possible twice a…

I use Huel. I have it for breakfast and lunch, and I like everything about it. I have a “proper” evening meal and snacks. I like that it’s easy and I don’t have to think about what to have for breakfast and lunch, it’s easy to calculate the calories, I feel much better since I started as for two meals at least I’m…

Normally I wear belts on my hips when wearing trousers and there hadn't been any change wearing that as I didn't have a lot to lose and my hips are pretty bony anyway. Today I put a belt on that I wear around my waist to accessorise a dress and it was noticeably bigger! Took me by surprise as I totally wasn't expecting it!

Have added you both. I would also like to eat healthier and build up some strength!

1. Peel and slice a banana 2. Put pieces into a freezer bag and freeze 3. Blend frozen banana in a food processor BAM! Guilt-free, delicious ice cream :)

I log in every day but haven't yet got any friends on here. I also don't know how to friend request people on the app so feel free to add me!

Well said, thank you

Is it possible to add friends through the app? I've made bad choices today so should probably connect with more people on here to motivate me to eat better!

I've been logging for a while but only just started posting on the boards. Went back to work today after easter holidays and ate a lot of goodies in the staffroom!! Going on holiday at the end of May for a wedding and want to look good. Don't have any friends on here yet and don't know how to add people from the app, feel…

YES!! You saying you are still ignoring him and didn't meet up with him made me smile so much! You are so strong!! Keep going, you're amazing. You know what? Your boss doesn't matter anymore. Just go and get your things, do the handover stuff and leave because that negativity is no longer a part of your life. You have…

I don't often post on here but I keep reading this thread to see how you are doing. First of all, I want to say a huge CONGRATULATIONS on being sober. That is a HUGE achievement and shows just how strong you are!! Secondly, ignore that poster. The comment made me angry and I believe it comes from somebody who has never had…

I don't know what yoga toes are but I used to do a lot of ballet. Are you straining your toes when you point? Your toes should be "long" rather than curled up. When I point, my foot is effectively in the same shape as if I were on tiptoe, I just move my toes so they are in line with my foot. There is no strain on my toes…

I have had problems with calorie sync too. For some reason the calories shown on fitbit were way over what I logged in my diary on MFP. I only log my food on MFP. Why would it be different? In an attempt to sort it out I deleted the food data fitbit had taken from MFP assuming it would appear again after another sync, but…

I have the exact same problem as you, only I don't think I've even made it to 9 days!! Managed to get myself to start over again today, though my routine has recently been disrupted with getting a second job so I'm posting in here with the hope that it will motivate me to do it even when I get home late.

Best In Show?

Today, on the 70th anniversary of the liberation of auschwitz, I am grateful for my freedom.
