This is from the very beginning going back to 2007...yes been at it that long with gaps of stalling inbetween mostly last year when my father was very ill....this year so far I've lost 10kg and working on finishing it up on MFP :)

oh always so wise when they are sitting in a car mouthing off, your out there doing something to try to improve your health quite the opposite to them....anyone who has had this happen to them will understand how you feel....they are idiots and even if you dont care what they think it still hurts, pretty human and I…

Went through this last year with my Dad and it is tough in the later stages of my Dads life I took it one day at a time and focused on not putting on weight cause your right the day to day of this is so tough I tried to make each day as healthy eating as I could and when it was a crash and burn day I had to just put it…

Loving this conversation totally what Im dealing with

Its all about doing it at your level...I go to classes like that and its at my pace....with my lower back weakness burpees are done with a step....as in I dont 'hit the floor' I hit the step just that little bit back up off the ground makes all the difference and Im still getting something out of the exercise...chat to the…

Hello Susan....it is harder as you get older but I found once I started you kinda get the bug for it your body actually looks for it...start slow and build yourself up, make the committment to yourself that you want this and take it day by day...feel free to add me if you want :) Welcome aboard :)

Always good to have as much support as possible :)

yes as sassy said if your logging your exercise just be mindful if you choose to use them all in your food count the loss will be much smaller....my trainer said to me...if you dont need them dont use them if your having a day where you are really hungry(and that may be because you have trained hard) use some of them ....I…

as the others have said a pre workout can be a good thing I find it gets you going and then the rest clicks in...exactly what its meant to do but yes just be aware if you take it later in the day it may keep you 'going' at night when your trying to wind down...there are many around if this is what you want to do I suggest…

4.7kg in 4 weeks so far :)

Following along here in this group happy to add anyone :)

I have a my zone as well for my gym and I agree with Wubbie they told me when I bought it, that its more accurate because it reads the heart rate

After a really tough year last year and losing my Dad I decided to do a challenge at my gym....a nutrition based one and kg loss and cm loss is done as a group loss not individual which I love cause its not about winning as a person but a group, into Week4 and something this week has just clicked all of a sudden I feel…

All about me, selfish I think not, if we cant do it for ourselves then we cant do anything for anyone else, it all starts with YOU :)

Can only tell you what my trainer tells me, that Body Pump is a good combination with the rest of your training, I only go 1 or 2 times a week but I train with her twice a week and total of 5 or 6 days a week, mixing it up with weights, cardio etc, defiantly go to it but keep up the rest of your workouts :)

Looking forward to chatting with ladies in the same age group and hopefully helping each other out as we go along :)

Me too...back to it after a tough end to the year last year...time to get mind strong again and move forward :)
