Congratulations on your hardwork & commitment!!!

In my opinion, if you eat within your BMR & TDEE you should begin to lose weight. Although, I would suggest consuming only 15% reduction of your TDEE and you should see some changes. All the very best:))

This is my contribution...on holiday in Turkey in June...Why is it so damn cold in England!!!!!:noway:

Thx, I will take a look :)

All, feel free to add me.....I WILL be honest and will look at your food/exercise diary from time to time and WILL comment. I have 24lbs to lose by 10th December 2012 (goal weight 9.7st). I exercise about 4-5 time per week and enjoy it. I eat as healthily as possible but, I do have the odd treat factored in (the treat is…

Your body will adapt over time....keep with your program. Warm up for 5 mins before Lifting (either crosstrainer, treadmill, or jumping jacks etc) - only do static stretches after a workout not before. Ensure that you fuel up (eating & drinking) correctly after your workout. Ensure you have good form when Lifting and stop…

Hello, I'll be 40 in April 2013...I have the odd aches and pains but nothing to major - but would be happy to cheer on and motivate anyone that needs encouragement (as long as they are trying of course :wink:

Great progress, well done :))

You look fabulous and extremely athletic looking. You have done an amazing job at being accountable and healthy :))

Welcome aboard.... Feel free to add me or motivation if you need it. Enjoy the journey :))

Welcome aboard. This is a great site and if you are accountable you will reach your goal weight easily:))

Feel free to add me and we can motivate each other :))

Feel free to add me.... I have 24lbs to drop, so we have similar goals :)

Hello, I'm from England but on the same journey. Feel free to add me for motivation:))

Hi Jess, its great to be able to look back and reflect.. to say "hey, I need to fix this" and stop putting up with the same results. Time goes by so quickly, so much so that the body gets used to us giving in to our cravings, making it so much harder to correct things over time....but our over indulgences can be overcome…

Well said

I would recommend concentrating on YOU. Forget the others around you, concentrate on getting the best out of your workout. The biggest hurdle of getting fit is getting to the mindset that you need to change things. You are halfway there; don't put it off any longer :)) Enjoy your fitness journey.

I think you know you are doing too much :smile: Exercise should be something that you can sustain which I doubt you could for another 5-6 weeks. If you were a professional athlete (maybe training for the Olympics) then of course you would have a busy schedule (which you do)!. I love exercising too but quantity is not…

I really enjoy baking, Cakes especially - I really like the before and after (process of baking) So I have to really deny myself but, I enjoy looking at food blogs (which helps as I can see their befores and afters and not have to eat it). I have been making Sourdough Pancakes recently which I restrict to 2-3 pancakes.

Hello Tash, you and anyone else are more than welcome to add me as a friend. I live in Jersey,Channel Island (so effectively the UK). Im on a mission, working hard and trying to eat right (making foods interesting). I have set myself a challenge of 105 days of working out and eating right to lose 29lbs. I have been…

Feel free to add me :)

Just do you, forget others that want to constantly stuff themselves with junk. Be your own person, love you and your body - its not a dress rehearsal.

Bump thxs

Hiya I lift heavy 3 x per week, spinning once a week, HIIT, Kettlebell, Circuits (anything that makes me break out in a sweat:)) I walk twice per week (1.30 mins) as light exercise. Happy to have you as a friend.

Count me in please. I'll send a friend request :))

Hi, I did a Spinning class today. I try and do them twice a week. Its a great calorie burn (for me between 500-600 cals). You can go at your own pace. Once you have settled into a couple of Spin classes, try and push yourself a bit further. The class incorporates hill climbs and sprinting as well as motivating music (loud…

Maltesers, Curly Wurlyies, chocolate cake.......but I do not miss them anymore as I'm weaning myself of white sugar, white rice, potatoes and white pasta.

I baked with Pure Via this week (Protein Muffins). I was surprised that there was no bitter after taste. One tbsp is just 2 calories-v-20 calories for white sugar. There was a special offer on at the local supermarket so, I purchased two boxes.

I turn 40 next April 2013. I love to dance and have as much fun as possible. I'm strong with great stamina.......overall just glad to be alive & kickin *kitten*. Stpetegirl, you look way younger than 40, keep doing what your doing:))
