Hi I'm from manchester. Feel free to add me, looking for friends on my weight loss journey

Hi. I'm interested. I need a kick up the *kitten*. I've started a personal Trainer qualification and I want to be fit and trim ready for when I start a new job. Currently looking to lose around a stone to a stone and a half xx

Agreed, you cant mix different diets as they work on different principles. Stick with one diet and you will get results.

Just started Dan Brown Angels & Demons :-)

Cycling, is great for toning legs :-)

Nay, just diet and exercise is all you need.

Spirits with diet drinks are lowest calories, I always go with vodka and diet coke

Fun

No

Well done!!!!!!! That feeling when you have finished running, can't be beat it, a real sense of achievement. I don't know if your in the UK or not but I went to a shop called the sweatshop and got the right shoes for my feet, cost me £95, but I look at it this way, I wouldnt buy a cheap pushbike so I wont buy cheap…

I enter with no brand name it normally comes under generic

I have normally 2 cheat meals a week where I dont count and I dont count my vodka or bourbon and still lose at 1700 calories, but I do a lot of running and cycling, so works for me :-)

Hi I enjoy the running too. Tonight is my first hours long run in 12 months after an injury, any runners feel free to add me.

That the person in the hat cant possibly see where they are going pulling it all the way down like that :-P

Try the couch to 5k to get started, I couldnt run and started with this now I love running, currently training for a half marathon, once you get bitten by the running bug you wont want to stop :-)

An old nickname, my name is Emma Roe which everyone chaged to emmaroid as in hemaroids lol

Hit

I have just started this, only on my second workout. On phase 1 xx

Last weekend :-)

I heard body fat calipers are the only true way to calculate body fat percentage. I got some from ebay they only cost £2.50.

This sounds like a good idea but I bet I dont have the self control.

See, Im currently on 1370 a day Im strict all week then let it go a bit at the weekend, ie have a drink a few treats and can still lose weight. But I tried maintaining a bit back 1 week went fine, then the next week I had put 2lb on so back on the diet. Im thinking I need to allow myself 4lb under goal so I have that to…

Cheers. I enjoy the cardio. I don't find it too much. I do 10 mins on the bike and then about 35 minutes running. Im aiming to be able to run 5K. Will take your advise with upping my calories by 100 each week to see how I get on. really dont want to lose anymore though but deff dont want to gain anymore

Thanks for all the advise. 7.2 I thought was slow as when I walk on the treadmill I walk at 6.0. Will try to increase the duration first. :-)

Endomondo will automatically connect to MFP to show calories burned for any workout you do. Its a great ap and free too xx

Taken

I do Insanity and my HRM tells me Im burning around the 274 mark for 40 minutes of Pure Cardio. I am 140lb and 5ft 7. The more weight I have lost, the fitter I have got, the less calories I burn. I also worked out my Vo2 max which I input into my HRM to be more accurate. I think it all depends on your fitness level &…

Bullmastiff and Staff. I have one of each, a bullmastiff called George & a staff called Clooney :-)

Low fat cottage cheese :-)

Im thinking of doing more interval training and upping the time I do this
