  • Goals today : Heaps of veggies (cook it!), one bread not two, no dairy goal, walk and do yoga or gym. 8 hours in bed. Sleep is extremely important for weight / fat loss. I'm not sure everyone realises how important. Also I found it impossible to move away from a bloated body when I had an undiagnosed hormone condition. So…
  • @winodini thsmk you for your encouragement to everyone. Wow yes I know how badly family commitments can effect our helpful habits. When I was traveling with mine I made sure I had lots of fruit and some nuts . As they tucked into bbq meat and bread I was sitting there with my broccoli and hummus to fill up on ! However my…

But I ate raw veg and salad and spirulina. Maybe tomorrow?! Bread goal achieved. Walking achieved. Gym achieved Study partially achieved. Dairy acheived. For…
  • It's a new day here !! I was wasted yesterday from cycling in.the sun and didn't do yoga. But today my car is back from mechanic so I won't have to cycle in heat and will be able to get to gym. So then goals for today. ... Cook the veg I have in fridge One piece of bread at a time Walking or local grocer and buy an avo Gym…
  • Well I stuck to some goals - one piece of bread at a time! Cycling! I havent yet done my yoga but will. I did have some dairy (cream in coffee). I unfortunately ate a whole bag of bhuja snacks. And only because I am alone. Never mind, new day tomorrow! Lots of love to all x
  • Okay I need to goal goal goal! ! 1 piece of bread at a time, no dairy apart from.finishing up my instant sachets, walking, yoga or gym.
  • @gridirongrrl i find the best thing to do is relax, chill and enjoy the blah. It took me years to elarn to go with my natural ebbs and flows. I hope you get a good sleep too :) Well today I broke my goals! I had 2 pieces of toast as a meal, and some dairy in instant coffee drinks. BUT I will now do my yoga and mostly…
  • If you fill up mainly on veg salad and fruit then you won't have a problem food wise. Don't worry about overeating apples. I get where you are coming from but the most important thing is to relax your mind so don't worry about it. As you use exercise for stress relief you need new stress relief. Deep breathing and…
  • I've read your latest updates and I see a lot of determination! ! Let's keep going ! One day at a time. And those days string together and before we know it we have arrived to feeling confident and healthy! ! I stuck to goals yesterday : yoga or gym, walk or cycle, no dairy, one bread at a time. I'll carry those forward to…
  • Brown fat prevails when you are fat but exercise a lot. Sumo wrestlers have brown fat. Visceral fat forms around organs and is dangerous. So the type of fat you have matters.
  • Keto one month on one month off. Eat lower carb than most people on your month off but have a break from keto.
  • Ps I have avoided sore boobs and bad pms for the second month in row by taking Go Hormone Harmony supplement. I'm just saying because the water retention before period always made me think I had gained heaps and I felt terrible mood wise. And maybe this comment can help someone else. I take it for 7 to 10 daya before…
  • Thanks @azkunk for thinking of me. Ive been away from home and enduring some stress and good times but back now 😀 I hope your heart monitor arrives soon? Try not to stress in the meantime though easier said than done. It will arrive when it does. I know how health can be a worry. I have to have one too but only 24h. I've…
  • HI I'm 40s. What's your plan ? What is one thing you plan to do differently for a week to feel better? And what is your why ? Why do you want things to be different. ..how will it change your life ?
  • I am checking in here morning and evening to keep my mind targeted and healthy ! I hope I'm not overdoing it for you! @azkunk good luck. You'll be a star nearer some clarity 😀 I know what you mean about marathon. Maybe in 20s it was a race but life goes on and we need to be balanced with joy and goals ☺ Let us know how you…
  • @jesika0731 do you like working out? Of not then get something new like dance lessons or swimming or yoga. Do something you enjoy so much that you'd do it whether it helped you lose weight or not. If you are eating sensibly working out and getting good sleep then there's no reason not to lose weight. .. Unless of course…
  • HI all I hope you are going well ? Today I met goals of one bread instead of two and no whole milk and some yoga. I also did a lot of housework. .as far as I'm concerned movement is movement! I have a lot of travel in the next few days. My goal is no caffeine after 2pm yikes! And the same as before. A decent walk and or…
  • For the marathin training, you just need to get out the door. Dont run, walk for 20 minutes or 30 then go home again. Dont bargain with yourself, just put your sneakers on and go. See how you feel when you get back! I sometimes lsiten to podcasts or music when I walk, and sometimes I sing myself!! One other thing...are you…
  • My why today is feeling good and balanced emotionally. Life throws up loads of stresses. I often respond by eating and my body gets very sick with stress. The over eating and not exercising adds to stress and life becomes a tightly wound unenjoyable tense grind ! If I avoid the bad ways of dealing with stress then I don't…
  • @azkunk ☺ I have lots of health issues including the dizzies and heart. Does it only happen when you stand up ? For me what works is still using gym but not busting a gut. Just light or moderate exercycle and moderate weights. As it generally happens standing up , these days I hardly use my beloved eliptical and stick to…
  • Dont weight yourself. There are all these 'rules' about how we should do thimgs in life, but the fact is, it sounds like you know yourself, and you know you would not benefit from the measuring. Its a wonderful feeling to feel fit, healthy, detoxed from a bit of sweating and toned. THAT FEELING IS REAL! Its healthy…
  • Kept to some goals....no whole milk, one slice of GF bread instead of two at any meal I have bread. My other goals were: early night, gym, yoga. Wont get early night as napped today - its the secret to getting lower cals - sleep during day! I always eat more when Im tired and stressed, im sure we all do. Probably wont get…
  • FYI over years in the gym I discovered that going backwards motion with eliptucal tones the butt better! Using arms at same time is a great workout and arm toner too if you push and pull a bit. If you put resistance way up and just use legs, and lower hips as if you're going to sit down, then it's as good as squats or…
  • Go well 😀 I'm not in oa but want to wish you well. I
  • Hey All. 1200 is impossible for me atm as I work from home snack snack. 1200 isn't much and to do that , meals and snacks all.need to be veg salad based (seems to me which isn't a bad thing! ). Well I kept my goal of zero whole milk.dairy, and one piece of toast instead of two. Ha but I was snacking all day and took no…
  • I know, right? I just turned 40. I havent gained weight but goodness body composition has changed, and pre menstrually I put on inches and heaps of bloat all over - but not so much weigh. Weird. I guess as we age, its that muscle loss that I always heard about. Sarcopenia. We lose muscle easily so BMR goes down . Down…
  • HI can I join in ? I have been eating a lot of sugar and peanut butter , and drinking a lot of whole milk and gaining. As seen as I'm only just 40 I'm not sure if this is an age thing....seems to me that I have to be perfect all the time or easily get 'flabby'. Several medical conditions don't help. I'm here to be…
  • Instead of pasta, you can get a spiralliser and use zucchini or carrots in it to make veg pasta. Brown rice is gluten free, as are sweet potatoes. Quinoa is GF. A lot of GF peeps have probs with oats so i wouldnt go there. I use an organic brown rice GF, dairy free bread by Vernedi Six Seed (its only good toasted lol). As…
  • Long term calorie deficit will turn a person hypothalmic and possibly mess up the thyroid function, sex hormone production etc for life, but most people should recover if they only do it for a month (presuming they are healthy when they start). Seems to me that if you dont agree with his bravado attitude (there is clearly…
