Thanks for the responses people. My other issue, if I stretch and do a longer workout is that it leaves me starving and I end up eating much more. I will be trying to find a middle ground so that I improve my fitness without compromising my calories. Any tips for that are also welcome.

I think yoga does more than just burn calories. It is known to reatore hormonal balance. I have experienced it first hand. I believe weight loss is more than just calories, it is also about determination discipline and hormones. So I suggest you to couple the 2. Keep cycling as your primary exercise and add yoga as a…

I need to control my sugar cravings. I am slipping these days. Need to bring it back under control

I go straight from work. I pack my gym stuff and take it along. Make sure I eat something small an hour or so before leaving the office. Once in the gym, I do 10 minutes of cardio. I am usually settled by the time the cardio is done. If I don't feel motivated to do strength, I continue with cardio. My gym has cardio…

Generally speaking, sudden bending and jerk movements should be avoided. Same goes for jumps. I would be careful/avoid those exercises which engage my abdominal muscles.

too many reasons!! first tranche of weight loss- I was incredibly out of breath climbing up a hill. I felt like my chest is going to explode. I was 20 years old. Second tranche- I wanted to stick it to a boy. Current conclusion- I want to be happy again. I got caught in crazy shitstorm called life. Anxiety, depression,…

What i mean by ankles giving out is that when i try to run, i get pain in them so i need to stop, when rest of the body is doing ok

I have been eyeing these threads for a long long time now. Always wanted to post something here. I am a super super newbie at cycling. First time posting here. 4/8/18 - 10Km road cycling It took me solid 40 minutes to complete it. But I am so pleased with myself.

That is very interesting. I think it should make a good motivating factor for us to be on track.

i had a 11cm one. I am currently 1 week post- lap myomectomy. from what i read during my pre-op research, fibroids are caused due to oestrogen dominance. so if you can get to regulate oestrogen, your symptoms should be controlled too. for that, exercise and a diet rich in fiber was recommended. Now, even if this theory is…

I have it unsynced. I like my fitbit to play around. I like to see the heart rate zones i hit with my activities and my daily active time. I also like to compete with my fitbit friends.

OK. The perspective of a former denier. We want to lose weight yesterday. No matter how long it took for me to put it on, I want it gone yesterday after I start my diet. And complete and utter lack of understanding on calories. “I had a heavy lunch so I am simply going to drink milk for dinner” with around 10 teaspoons of…

Hey Twin 5'7" SW - 185 CW- 176 GW- 150 (around 70kg for me) From India

I would suggest you eat the normal food but in smaller portions. Add protein to your diet if you are vegetarian. Our diets are chiefly carbohydrate based. Another thing is watch the amount of oil that is being put in the preparation. What you are thinking to be a 100 cal thing might actually be 2x 3x cal with all the…

I want to regularise my eating. A lot of "life" happened with me in the last 6 months. I just want to get back on track. Minigoal is "I will stay within my calorie goal this week".

I view rewards a periodic appraisal. I get to review the process, understand what needs to be corrected and identify what worked. There is no scope for punishment. That is too negative a thought. When I reach a goal, I have reached somewhere. I am not in the same place I was yesterday. I made progress. I persisted, through…

I have included my husband in the process. He keeps a check on my achievement. I have included a reward involving him as well. I currently weight 3 kgs more than he does. So once I weigh less than he does, I get to brag about it and motivate him (may be by teasing him) to get fit. He is not overweight but he is extremely…

ohh.. this sounds cool.. I am not big on makeup but love some lipsticks and nail polish. I will include this for my rewards

ok as for tip 1- i got a cycle frame that fits me (according to my height) and the guy who fit it adjusted the seat height. The saddle is good. I think my problem is with my energy level. should I start eating a little more on cycling days?

Ok I am deviating from my own post, but.. I would really like some tips on cycling from you. I have been looking at your cycling posts and I have started cycling myself (I am very very bad at it though). Look, I am having a little fangirl moment..

This is good.. I do wish it worked like that for me. I like something to look forward to.

Hi there.. we can get in touch. Sending you a friend request now

I am wearing one of my goal jeans today. I had planned to fit them on 1st Oct. so beat my goal by 10 days.. yay..

Oh so many, so many of them!! 1. On Saturday evening, wore a completely unforgiving, form fitting dress and went for a party. You have no idea how unlike this is to the normal me. Danced my head off. I am still receiving compliments from the friends I went with. 2. Met a friend for brunch on Sunday. She could not stop…

you are correct. My primary goal is to burn a moderate amount of calories. For now. As the previous poster said, I might define some other goal and work towards it, eventually.

Thanks for the advise people. I ll stop the steps calories incorporation in my daily logs

??

yes. I do. and I use it meticulously. Its new, the batteries are new.

Where do these fads crop up from? I would really like to know the rationale behind taking HCG.
