Although I’m 10years older, I can see a lot of similarities. After a year from hell last year I gianed almost all of my weight as well as loosing almost all of my fitness. I’m up to 210lbs and It’s a very daunting task. Getting my fitness back is almost as important as loosing weight for me. I’m a triathlete and it’s not…

I’m a triathlete but definitely not a vegetarian, does that count😃

Don't worry if you get overtaken by loads of people, just run your own race any have fun.

You can add me. :)

Feel free to add me I have a garmin forerunner 25 username MichelleODonoghue

What great posts, I've been thinking I'll never run any faster. I started 2years ago at 17minute miles and I'm now down to 12m/miles for 3miles. I was beginning to think that was it for speed for me but reading everyones post has now made me feel as if I will get faster with time and less weight. The best thing for me is I…

I have the Garmin Forerunner 25 and use it with a chest strap

I eat 50g dry as does my hubby, my teenagers have 100g dry each, once the pasta is cooked I weigh it and I have a 6th.

30 min Kangoo Jump class 45min Les Mills Body combat class 45min Functional Core class 800meter Swim Legs are dead now, still in pain from yesterdays bodyworx class (gymstick- resistance bands attached to a pole)

Drink lots of water, I also found when I reduced the amount of soda I drank (2liters to 1, 330ml can per day). Not only was my skin a lot clearer but my hair also became softer and shinier.

I wash my hair almost everyday, it's fine and it gets greasy very quickly. I swim up to 4 times a week so I have no choice but to wash it, to get rid of the chlorine. Dry shampoo makes my head itch. I've used Aussie shampoo and conditioner for about 12years and I have no problems. I usually let it dry naturally and I've…

Mine is still not registering steps properly (nothing in reports and connections) and it's not connecting to MFP.

The more the merrier, you can all add me

Not from Brighton, from Hartlepool in the NE of the UK Hello

Did a super sprint duathlon and burned 963calories

Hartlepool in the North East of England

Forget to say, I also get calories allocated to my exercise.

I have a ninja (950watts)

Is anyone's garmin connect working yet, It's registered my activities but not my steps.

Not sure if they work in the same way but I have a garmin forerunner25, I use a HRM and only log exercise on garmin connect that way the garmin is in control of the calories burned and can adjust accordingly. I usually get somewhere between 50 and -50 adjustment.

Think the scales in Boots are very probably very misused, I would invest in a new set of scales. I got a cheap colour match ones from argos only £12.99. I've had them a couple of years and they are still accurate

5'3.5 44years old 1310+exercise calories. steadily loosing 1lb per week.

The only time I've ever burned 1000 calories in an hour using a HRM was when I did a duathlon.

I loose weight off my feet first then my face, neck and boobs, everything is now slowly reducing but the places I have most fat (thighs and bum) will probably be last.

The only thing I use my BMI for is to set myself smaller goals. I've got 5lb to loose and then I'm only overweight and no longer obese.

Just remembered a story about my daughter, we lived in New Jersey for 3 year (2001-2004) we're from the UK, she was in kinder garden and as she got off the bus she picked something up and said loudly "look mammy I've found a rubber" Poor driver, her face was a picture. Also got asked one parents evening what an oblong was.

Just to confuse everything a boot in the UK is also a shoe.

Salad cream is not mayonnaise. As far as I know there is no equivalent. I don't think it's available in any other country other than the UK.

I was told on here that I should only loose up to 1% in lbs of my body weight per week. I'm 180lbs so I can safely loose up to 1.8lb per week
