Asparagus and poached egg on toast

Hi all, feeling really positive today! It’s nice to have support from like minded people. Here’s to healthier happier times! Good luck guys 😊

Hi everyone! Alcohol has NOT been doing me any favours recently! I don’t drink a lot but I do drink daily. Recently I’ve been telling myself I’ll have a break but find after a few days I’m sat with a glass in my hand again. This concerns me … it’s actually very hard not to drink at the moment which is ringing huge alarm…

Thank you! Looking out for November thread!

Hi Goldenxbeauty, I was just reading your other thread and was going to reply! You look amazing and healthy in your profile pic 😊 Be proud of all you are achieving. I recently looked into creating some ‘emergency healthy eating packs’ for myself and the children, they are there for days when the 1 hour turnaround from…

Thanks Snowflake. I’ve tried searching but there are so many old and dead end threads. Are there any offhand that you could recommend?

Hi! I’m UK based. Professional mum of 3 aged 9,7 and 4. I’m looking to loose about 10-12 pounds to be back at an ideal weight before my 40th and Caribbean holiday in March 2022! I work with high stress and have a weakness for an evening drink to relax which is often followed by sweet cravings!! Been a member for 5 years…

Lol just noticed the glass of red in my profile picture!

Well done. How long had you been running before that. I started running beginning of Dec and managing a 5k per week + other activities a couple of other days. It still hurts so much, I’m hoping it will get easier soon. Congrats 🥳

Thank you all, I had a really great induction. Sijomial you were very right about having a focus. The guy went from a mumble about the strength equipment to a full on, quite passionate delivery on correct technique and a brilliant run through of some floor core exercises when I guided him that way. I hurt so much though…

Thanks starfish. I'll stick with every other day and then hopefully increase the workout time and intensity in a couple of weeks.

Sorry - forgot to mention my goal is to improve overall strength, posture and add some muscle tone. It needs to be something I can do fairly quickly at home. Removing tummy fat would be a bonus but I struggle to get out with the children (I use up all my babysitting to go to work and don't want to overburden others)

Lol it's my butt, chest and arms that are killing me!!! My abs feel OK. I've left it for today for soreness to improve. It's a beginner total body 'core' work out. I'll stick to just the 1 workout daily until my poor aching muscles get used to it and then move to 30 min workouts. Thank you for your response

Anyone?

Exercise induced cough can be a common sign of asthma. Is there any family history of asthma, eczema, hayfever, food intolerances in yourself or your immediate family? Do you cough in the early morning or night at all? Are you prone to getting coughs with viruses or ever feel wheezy? It may be nothing but I'd chat with…
