Thanks..... really a 1st World problem.....! I think Ill just do what @CorvusCorax77 does and just delete either the link or the entry. Ill survive - just a bit of a pain!

Happy New Year.....! Not a complete Newby but a returned after running out of enthusiasm. Clearly a goal is to be healthier and weight loss through better eating, better food tracking and sensible exercise. I fell over last time by not being able to accurately track the calorie intake, especially if you home cook. So here…

Not sure if this has been mentioned already, but wrist HRM are not specifically measuring heart rate but blood flow/capillary flow; they are impacted by many things including how tight you wear it! I personally use a MyZone HRM which seem to be one of the best on the market at an affordable price. They use the following…

Day 3 in the New Year House....! As I am still on holiday, temptation appears around most parts of the house and around town. So I have decided that my desire to eat the left over Xmas chocolates and biscuits etc can be counter minded by coffee and water, plus the recuperative powers of endless tea! Admittedly, my wife has…

I use a Garmin watch that tracks everything and is a really good motivator.

An interesting two or three days! Nothing particularly to write home about but a typical day for a busy working chap. Yesterday involved coffee, a bun and chocolate brownies (the team at work seem to be having their own bake off!) plus my most boring salad I possibly could have drempt up. To break the mundane nature of my…

All good advice, especially the soup idea! So far i am now in week 2 of my new role; it is very office based but there is a degree of 'floor walking'. I have also found the in-house gym that is virtually across the road from my office so I have managed it for the last 3 days and 3 spinning classes. Today's class admittedly…

Plan is going ok so far, but admittedly only 7 days have gone by. New job started and so taking lunch in from home allow me to not use the unhealthy and expensive work canteen. Admittedly I am eating at my desk which may not be the most mentally productive. I have sorted my at-work gym requirements and went to an evening…

So week 3 and 4 smashed. Admittedly I am not the greatest example of the classic dieter.... Life style, work and reality does not match the utopian ideal of the standard diet profiles. Last week as an example was an early start to get a train into London so coffee on the move, with more coffee for the meeting followed by a…

RpnJen Thanks for your comments. (Snow showing admittedly does need snow.... Just rain here in the UK!) Day 2 involved spinning and getting into the habit of logging what I eat. The latter is not a mechanism to 'punish' myself over what goes in, but by actually doing it, even if not accurate, provides a mechanism to…
