This ^ :) I am overweight and unfit still and my rhr is 50. My 70yr old mums...is 58. lol. So yeah. Its within the range of normal. Is it normal for you? That might be the more accurate question. Are you cardio fit? Have you ever checked your rhr before? etc etc. Good luck though. :) and if it is just a normal but low…

Alas... not a GoT thread.. but I see some of the fans arrived to try and make it so anyway :P Well done. morning amusement acheived. :D

Honestly. Having breakfast. Yes yes I know. We are all supposed to eat breakfast. But I didnt for over 25yrs. So learning to again is hard. On the days I eat breakfast. I don't get anywhere near as peckish in the afternoons, after lunch. Than if I skip it. As far as motivation goes. Knowing my kids are watching me look…

In regards to the 'subway is not healthy' vibe.. (and hopefully not too off topic) Everything is unhealthy if you over indulge. Take a look around. Unless you plan on never eating out again, never entering a bakery, cafe, restaurant or bar again, never going to a party or birthday or christmas event. You are going to…

Another secret dieter here. I have a couple of close family and friends who know. But for me its the majority who get up in my face about it.. Either by telling me I dont need to lose weight ( i was over 230lb when i started) or by spending far too much energy telling me 'come on.. one trip to the cafe wont kill you.. you…

Congratulations :) and good luck moving forward

I gave up 6 weeks ago. Cold turkey. Its hard so congrats on your resolve. As a side note, some things I did. A craving for a smoke usually only lasts a couple of minutes. If you can just not have one for that minute or two. It gets easier. Also. Brushing my teeth when I felt like a smoke helpped. Didnt want to lose the…

Hope you are feeling better soon. I totally used your situation to motivate myself thismorning. I had been looking for excuses not to do day 7. I missed a day yesterday feeling sorry for myself, and your situation reminded me. I should. Frankly. Because I can. My body is capable. A blessing I should not take for granted. I…

Day 6 done. In some ways. The hardest so far. It was very hard to motivate myself to do it today after a weigh in and measure moment went.. shall we say.. not as expected. The rant is here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/wolf_wench/view/tape-measures-are-stupid-anyway-541028 But the determination is here. I did todays.…

ok so I must of been dehydrated when i wrote this.. Its day 5. lol

Day 4 lvl1 complete.. Managed to do both sets of girl pushups.. and the only thing i cant do entirely now is the bicycle crunches at the end and the damn skipping. it hurts my knees too much. so i kinda jog till i can do it again. But definately getting stronger. Might move up to a heavier hand weight in a day or two.
-
Just did day 4. Actually managed to do the whole workout without taking a breather or putting my weights down :) Still struggling with the pushups and the skipping but otherwise .. Go Me :D I feel a lil stronger. But no change on the scales or on the size yet. Bit worried i am not drinking enough. :( But take each day as…
-
well I survived day 3. Miss 13 is doing it with me. and after procrastinating all day (was a very high anxiety day) she refused to let me talk her out of us doing it. and we did it at 9pm. It burned. But by some freakish power. I managed to do an entire set of girl pushups. IN A ROW.. yay The last bit of cardio..…

Did day 2 today. And I have to say. I don't think I quite gave it my all. I think I was scared of todays workout more than I realised and was kinda pacing myself. Tomorrow (assuming I can move) I will not hold anything back. :) As far as highs and lows of the workout go. The hardest is still the pressups. I can do about…

I use Endomondo and nike+. both are ok. but prefer the endomondo but would like a hrm to really get the most out of it.
-
Well I survived. Though notes for next time... drink more before.. breathe more during and hold on till the end. :) Day one. completed.

oh my.. THIS is where all the weird and interesting people are.. :D I am here to be creepy, and make friends with other creepy people.

I will add to this one. When the most recent full photo of you is about as old as your youngest child :(
-
YES!! but weird is better than being a lemming :P. You're not the only one. I can kinda keep it down to twice a week now. But it has been known to be daily or after every bathroom visit. Husband threatened to hide the scales if I didn't stop. So its just mondays and thursdays pretty much now. Its hugely addictive. So I…

just for that. can i add you as a friend? Is that creepy?

just for that. can i add you as a friend? Is that creepy? (ok so now i need to learn how to quote. I would't want everyone thinking I was stalking them. I am a picky stalker)
-
I think you and I might share a body. Shapes are the same :P I can see the loss. But I feel your pain. not seeing the scale move is demoralising. Hugs. So add me if you like. A problem shared is a problem halved and all that. And my body does the same thing to me on a regular basis. hugs. You are doing great.
