Yep. A pound a week is really good! Best advice as always is to dive deep into tracking what you eat and log your exercise too. There's plenty of helpful people here so just take it steady and read as much as you can about food logging and ask when you have any questions. Grab yourself some food scales if you haven't…

Hi have you tried the seated leg curl and leg extension machines in your gym? Great for that toning you are looking for, and your footsies don't get involved.

Sounds like we're all in the same boat. Dropping 30 lb and getting a whole lot healthier is definitely good for us but you try and get rid of that last 5 lb and it seems like it's there sticking it's tongue out and taunting us! I guess we just gotta keep at it and enjoy the workouts. It's been a heck of a year but well…

Might not be enough time for you (depending which side of the world you are) but I'm heavily into marinading chicken breasts for a couple of hours or overnight for extra tasty chicken breast. My favorite is virgin olive oil and lemon with a bazillion spices thrown in to really give it the Asian flavours, but you can create…

Good luck to all of you. I know it seems hard at first but I know it can be done with some hard work and a little poke from us here on MFP. I've been at it a year now (seriously started around April this year) and I turned 60 in September. I am extremely happy with my fitness and body now and I enjoy my new found energy. I…

You obviously know your stuff. Whatever you're doing is working for you (excellent logging by the way :) ) Your body is gonna tell you when it's almost time to make any changes but for now.. keep up your fabulous work!

^^ This. Just log everything and don't bother "completing". All your information is safe(ish) ;)

Now that made me laugh :D

Yep can be pretty gruesome and it HURTS! OK so it's not that then.

Just a thought.. downhills are always hard on toenails. Do you have long toenails? Do you trim them for a walk? I found that a lot of pain relief came from cutting them tight and round. Then again I'm a bloke.. but I know it works.. been there got the hurt feet! Trust me it works.
