Once you start its easy to finish a walk... Getting up is the hardest part - so do it quick like ripping off a bandaid! And once its over think of the benifits!

I like the suggestion of making them cook a healthy meal one night a week - my mum forced me to cook when growing up and I hated it! But not I could not be more apprciative now because I know how to cook my own healthy meals every night. Mum had rules that the meal must have three serves of veg in it (could be a salad) and…

You're not the only one! The only way to get more flexible is to stretch - often. Try stretching every morning or before bed - definately after excersize... but don't stretch till it hurts - just till you can feel it. Then you improve a little bit each time..

The polar ones come in sizes too... XL/ L /M etc... or similar to that. I'm a pretty average size and can get the strap to wrap around me twice... it is very forgiving and elastic and adjustable. I thought it would be very uncomfortable under sports bras but it isn't...

I too thought that this was about cheese.. I was sad when it wasn't.... I always say I would marry chocolate and have an affair with cheese! But I guess everywhere has nicknames like this - I was born in QLD Australia - which makes me a 'banana bender'

Just a banana... skim milk... and honey. I'm very boring with my smoothies but that one is a delicious sugar-craving-killer snack sized smoothie.

Agreeing with everyone here also! If you're uncomfortable in the first visit you wont be comfortable for the next one and eventually you wont want to go. Three sessions a week is a bit much too - if you do one or two it will keep you on track and you can just repeat what one of the training sessions on your day off. Use…

mmm.. - Pay off the credit card (so I can start saving for a trip somewhere in the Northern Hemisphere to have a white Christmas!) - Get my motor boat licence - train for, and complete, a novice triathalon! eep!

No vegies?? Do you eat fruit? A good 200cal snack that I do is a banana smoothie... just banana, skim milk and honey blended up.

Yep. Been there... often. I do feel bad for those days, but they are easy to do. I would have gone well over 2000 + the other night having a couple of quiet drinks with friends... a couple of beers and chips and dip will send anyone well over! But all of those bad feelings after a day of bad eating are out weighed by the…

I was just posting a similar question else where - for shift work foods. I am after recipies that will make me stop wanting fast food at 4am. Salads don't cut it. I also am in Australia. For lunches I like stir frys... they only take a few minutes to cook at home then in the microwave at work. I don't use packaged sauces -…

after a while my HRM chest strap started to malfunction... I would be doing pretty much nothing and it would be claiming that my heart rate was 275 beats per minute... Obviously this wasn't correct but if I left it on it would record that I was burning thousands of calories and had the same resting heart rate as a…
