I agree you should get a check up first. Secondly, listen to your body. here's my own example, I have to be very careful with ab workouts because sometimes I get very painful cramp in my upper abs..

Oh OK :( I was hoping the monitor would really help to give me a closer idea. Still new to MFP, trying to get calorie input and output right when adding excersise!

Thank you for these very honest and. Informative answers. I would still like to have a HRM mainly out of the curiosity to find out how much energy I'm burning. I'm not a runner but love step workouts and other aerobics and sometimes use weights while doing these. Also I want to get my body fat down, I do not have much…

I like step workouts with weights, it burns a ton of calories and I can feel what muscles are being targeted after.

Salmon and broccoli

I like the barcode option when logging food on my diary and them looking at all the nutrients I have consumed during the day and whether I'm having the right amount of everything. I also like the stories on the forums and why other people are on here. Everyone has their own unique journey.

Thanks guys, this is very reassuring :)

Great, I'll have a look for these. My favorite excersise channels on YouTube are Sarahfit, Befit and Gymra is a new one I've been having a look at

Your fitness levels sound great, your running ability is much better than mine! Stick to a sensible calorie controlled diet and you'll be seeing results in no time

Jillian Michael I ment! Dammit spell check

Absolutely Youtube is brilliant for workouts orjust quick 10 minute ones to tone a specific area. befit, Gymra Killin Michael and sarahfit are really good.

HI Kelly how are you? I have young children too and the past 7 years has gone quicker than I would have imagined So busy doing the mom thing but have become unfit in the process! I have been doing charlotte's new dvd for a week, first day I could only do 3 rounds but the more I do it the more rounds I can get through. I…

Same here! I want to lose 10lbs and the healthy food regime is going well but not so well with the excersise, oh well it's only been one week! O bought myself a new bikini today one size smaller to keep me motivated :)

I know what you mean! My kids can empty the healthy contents of our fridge in 2 days, so now I have to double up on the food shopping and buy even more stuff like sandwich ham, Turkey...fruit just disappears.

I'm doing the plank challenge too, started yesterday, only managed 20 seconds, I'm combining it with 30 days abs and 30 days arms.

It worked!

Thanks for answers, I still have no default excersise diary to input any data :( might try uninstalled MFP and installing again For Android phone.

Hi! I've been back on here for one week! Trying to lose the last 10lbs. :) sticking religiously to a belly blitz diet.

Coors light, if you like beer

nikipb1 Hi, I'm 5.3 and same weight as you, also had kids recently and have forgotten how to diet! I am doing the belly blitz diet which focuses on around 1400 cals a day which is working well.
