What is Insanity Z ?

My 1st instant reaction was as long as she knows you're eating healthy - NO ! But after taking a second to think about the "Family Dynamic" it may be SEEN as. Without trying to sound too judgemental (I'm trying to lose weight - Kettle-Black) if she is cooking unhealthy for Dinner she more than possibly is eating unhealthy…

Water, Water, Water....but some days I struggle, especially weekends. I tend to have No Added Sugar dilute drinks to help my SWEET TOOTH. Pretty much everything is TRACE

Oh my gosh, I'll be checking in future... That's gotta be too light or a mistake. Do you want to LOSE 80lbs or be 80lbs ! (5st 10lbs) I'm hoping you say the former...

I've been eating a LOWER Carb diet too, BUT not as low as you are though. My current target every day is 78g of Carbs, but I usually aim for 50g or less. I've been told to try to consume Carbs ONLY when I need them. That is up until lunchtime or around midday. Minimum consumption after that, but bearing in mind anything…

If I go 1st thing in the morning & I'm only doing Cardio...I go on EMPTY ! Have a BCAA drink while exercising. A Protein Shake once finished. & Banana & 2 Satsuma's after too

So do you hate yourself too? You look like a goddess yourself...

I tend not to eat back my Exercise calories. I feel full and don't want to eat any more, especially later at night.. Should I be eating more? The problem being I tend to work out later in the evening. I guess the obvious advice is to work out 1st thing - but not always possible, being an insomniac and all. What's a Scooby?

Apparently WILD Fish is better with less Mercury, I read somewhere

My 2 penny's or cents for you cousins over the pond. Looks like you are doing A LOT of exercise and ignoring REST...others have a similar problem on here, so you're not alone. Maybe introduce some sort of interval training to mix things up. Having said that there are a lot of classes in there, which can help motivation in…

YOU THE MAN Bobby !!!

I have done a VLC diet, well kind of, where I have only had Vegetable Juice or Fruit Smoothies - usually referred to a Juice Feast. But even that was only for 3-5-7 days at a time. It usually done for a cleanse rather than weight loss, but obviously (or not) weight-loss is a by-product of doing one. I'm not expert, but…

I need to do what Dee does more...accept the compliment....the HARD work deserves it ! My involuntary responses usually are: "Oh a bit, still got a loooong way to go" & "Not that much, I always lose it on my face first" & "Nah not really, its an illusion, I'm wearing black"

Beautiful ! Start to believe it, your hard work has paid off. So happy for you. Excellent motivation to finish the job. I LOVE a Happy cry...

Sorry forgot to mention I don't eat Meat apart from Fish & Eggs

Awesome job !!! I'm looking to lose 75lbs too. Would love to hear more about your journey. WELL DONE !!! & Just something I noticed : Usually in before and after pics the Before pic is the SAD face & the After is the HAPPY face, yours is the other way around.

Hey Dee, Welcome to MFP. I'm relatively new here too, it's a GREAT place to be with lots of supportive people, I know you gonna love it. I've just started Low Carb Eating this week. (personally I don't like the D word - just look at the 1st 3 letters ;-) ) I would be interested in learning more from you as you've done the…

Seriously? Even the Water I use for my Protein shake? & The Water I use for my Workout drink? That would be nearly 4 glasses for me there alone.

I do take my own to DRINK....lol

I had porridge/oats an hour or so before getting to the gym. Was going t have 3 Jaffa Cakes, but there weren't any left in the house ... "pesky kids" I found some dried Dates, grabbed 3 of them. Ate one 30 minutes before getting to the gym Another one 5 minutes before getting on the Elliptical Trainer & the last one after…

Sorry guys I forgot to mention, the pain in my toes has gone now...but points taken on board thanks.

Thanks Jenn, I got me a decent pair of Running Shoes - Asics 2170 & LOVE THEM ! I've got the Doctors appointment Thursday am

Glucosamine is in the list too now, need to get me some.

Just been looking at Suunto, but reading bad reviews for customer service.

FANTASTIC !!! A TRUE INSPIRATION FOR ALL !!! Thanks for sharing.

Me too, re. what is what.

Hello & Welcome, I've been doing the C25K too. It's been a bit of a struggle, but more mentally. I'm on week 3 and am worried about Week 4, as I was worried about Week 1 before I started, Week 2 after Week 1 & Week 3 after Week 2. Please feel free to add me too if you wish. Loozin

I might get me some Calcium too - I don't really do much dairy apart in Tea or Coffee.

Nobody else using Supplements?
