For 10 minutes my bike says 77 calories

Can be a number of cause, discs,pinched nerve, knee or hip problems, all of these can cause sciatica nerve to imflame, my stationary bike is helping me,

I started last July, lost 33 pounds by December......with overseas guests, Christmas and trips, I have maintained my loss with a fluctuation of 3 to 4 pounds....I have just started back now for some more loss, I want to loose another 20 pounds, I haven't exercised so far except for the occasional walk or swim, I will start…

I'm on 1000 calories and it took me 6 months to loose 16kg (35 pounds), YES, sometime I go over it......but will over try to stay on 1000 most days.

Try to grab a fruit and go for a jog, or walk......some form of exercise to release fell Good hormones.....you will bounce back, good luck....

First of all congratulation. Secondly you are an inspiration, thirdly I totally agree with all you said above. It's not a diet it's a lifestyle choice for 99.98 % of the time.......every once in a while or festivities a bit of indulgence won't break good habits....... Well done looking good

Thank you for your reply, very insightful. I have lost already 14.3 k (31.3 pounds) very slowly (6 months) by calories reduction alone no exercise, with the new year I wanted to add some form of physical activity .....but I'm limited with bad knees and general oesteoarthritis......the idea that it may also helps with…

During war, obese people didn't exist. it all the convenient prepackaged and cheap food ready available, we eat too much and the wrong food too....and we don't move walk eccetera......in the 50 they were all slim.....so what happen ? Do the genetic changed ? I don't think so.......

Replace the sweet calories for fruit.....have an extra piece of bread or cup of milk......it's sugar addiction......I know, if I stay away I'm ok, if I indulge, I find it hard to control to 1 portion only......

I find that bread has being my salvation.......Without it I wouldn't succeeded, I make fresh crusty and super yummy bread roll that keeps me full and satisfy me, about 450 to 500 calories and if at 65 and petite at 5.4 without exercising and sedentary life style lost 30 pounds in 5 months.....anyone else can too.....forget…

I only 163 or about 5.4

Stay positive, I'm 65 lost 14.2 kg about 30 pounds in exactly 5 months. I haven't exercised at all, will start in the new year, my calories intakes is about 1000 to 1100 per day, I had 3 binged days in 5 months. (About 1800 calories) he seems like the body requires them......and I indulge.....

I have lost 30 pounds in 5 months, I take betablocker and I'm not exercising.....female 5.4 and 65 years old.

You are overreacting and being emotional about menaupose......I'm well past it at 65..... I know what you are going through, the emotions etcetera........I'm 5.4 and lost more than 30 pounds in 5 months, not exercising at all, bad knee and hip, eat just like you between 1000 to 1100 calories.....this turmoil will pass,…

Bike is recommended as it's low impact.....my surgeon told me not to walk as an exercise, (bone on bone) only low impact exercise, bike or cross trainer.

Stationary bike will do wonder for you, while watching your favourite programme,10 to 20 minutes, will rienforce the muscle and tendons around your knee and help you in your weight loss journey. also a knee support during the day, will help you feel more stable.......I also have knee problems.....

I'm not from the USA, pops corn are made in many many variations, from sweet version like caramel, chocolate eccetera, to savory butter, chilly, cheese.......experiment some.....

I eat about 1000 calories per day, and I do too feel full, and yes I force myself to finish my meal, I just take a breather and then finish it off.....like you I don't have breakfast, I find that is works fine for me. My sandwich are made of crusty Italian style bread rolls, ( freeze then cut and slightly toast before…

I eat 1000 calories per day, sometimes 1200, I'm not active (knee problems) and I have lost 22 pounds in 3 and a half month, not much I know, but I'm used now and take a multivitamin and mineral tablet, I'm afraid I'd i eat more I won't be loosing any......my Fitbit tell me I consume 1800 calories/day......

Half of my reply seems lost.....I was commenting as we are all different and what works for the majority won't work for everybody, I know about the sugar spike and so forth, and breakfast the most important meal of the day quick starting the metabolism, but doesn't work for me. Thanks to fitness pal Apps and calories…
