Check out the TRX on line. My gym now has several and it really works your WHOLE body!!! I'm getting great results!!

Great...think I will start with #1 and work my way to #60!!!!!! cheers!!!

Keep the post coming Egger, I'm right there with ya (add me if you like, I may even get your book...hahaha) ...and Nav, you have reached the point now where your really are understanding what purpose food is to our bodies and how your body reacts to real "live" food as well as exercise! Our bodies are designed to move and…

10 pounds is great!! The trick is to not feel deprived! This is for life changes so we need to eat the foods we like but watch how much! Keep up the good work and remember to pat yourself on the back! My diary is open now but I have to say it's been kinda boring the last few weeks a I have been busy but you are right, I do…

I had a look for you...are you not having the success you are looking for? I can only offer what works for me...I stay away from processed foods all together because it's easy enough to cook healthy fresh food that satisfies you. I personally have to stay away from breads and pasta as well. I do have Melba crackers but…

Thanks guys!! I may order it but I HATE working out in my house! Would rather go to the gym or run outdoors! Wish I could go to a class like this where you would sighn pu as a group to work through it all!!!! I get motivated through other people so much more!!! Hmmmmmm????

Great post...I get frustrated when people on these posts get all excited when they find a "low calorie" snack food that is still nothing but crap! The whole point of this journey we are all on is changing our eating to become healthy lean and fit...can't do that on empty calories! Keep more of these posts coming!! In…

Amazing pics ladies!!! We need some pics of some mens success stories too! I'm very inspired especially to start lifting more!!!

Where do you live? I'm in England and LOVE it when we go to an occasion that some men turn up in Kilts!!! Go for it!!!!! (and enjoy the fresh air!!) !!! Add me if you like!

Hey Ding...glad you added me! I live in England too so I totally understand that it's just not practical to want to give up the pints with your mates and don't think you need to!! It's all about balance which is tough for all of us to do (more so when past the 40 mark)! Believe me I would never be able to give up my social…

I love soup and find it so satisfying for not too many calories!! I crumble Melba toast in it for added crunch!! Love Amy's soups but it's great to learn how to make your own soup, and easy!!! Good luck in your weight loss!!!!

PS: add me if you would like! :0)

Think it's going to be tough but I could be wrong. Alcohol in small amounts seems to be ok for me but the weeks I've had more but still stayed in my calorie count I have failed to lose much. I've had to admit that alcohol sabotages my weight loss. Perhaps as a man it won't be as much of an issue. I had a Guiness last night…

The more instant or flavoured it is the more processed it is!! Get good old fashioned oats and cook them with water. I do a big batch on a Monday so I have it ready for other days! Then add anything you like, dried fruit, fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, honey, I like a big spoonful of Greek Yoghurt and dried fruit! Also good…

Lots of help and support here! All of us understand how hard this all is and are trying to make long term changes!! Please add me I would like to know more about how you got motivated finally to do the right thing and what your long term plans are!!! Best of luck and remember YOU and only YOU are in charge of your body!!!!…

Thanks all...now I feel so young and with it!!! Hahaha

I had to take an extra job of walking a ladies dogs 5 days a week for 45 min a day and I am certain that has been part of my weight loss (lost a total of 10 in 9 weeks) I do additional workouts at the gym 3-4 days a week but am so happy I "had" to do the walking! Also forces me out in the fresh air no matter what the…

That is the move that I fell in love with the first day it's a sort of jump to the side to a curtsy lunge and jump out far to other side into a curtsy...such great deep work!!!!

Put a few tablespoons on your salad and mix it all up (rather than dressing)...add some diced chicken and any other veg perhaps a few olives and you have the perfect (and very filling) lunch....just had it today!!!! Yum yum

...true, you will just pee out the unused however it also can make you have loose poo when you take to much? 1000mg a day is good but I always double that if I feel a cold or flu coming on (which is not too often thank goodness) Stay healthy!!!

Thanks guys, have been working the TRX a few times a week but think I will go to 3 days as there is SOOO much to do with one! Like you have all said, each workout can be so deferent. I have incorporated the kettlebells with it as well and I can really feel how deep in the muscle it works!! Thanks for your input!!!!!

...women who wear MAKEUP for their workout...gross!!!!!!!! Your poor pores!!!

I'm in UK (Surrey)... How do you find "groups" to check for UK members!!?? Anyway, have been on MFP for about a month now but have been doing a "Biggest Loser" contest at work which started 9 weeks ago. I've lost a total of 10 now so feel pretty happy. MFP has helped a ton! Add me if you like! :0)

Close...I'm 5'6" and started at 151 lbs (10st 11) but am around 140 (10st) now...hoping to get to 130 (9st4)!! I'm turning 48 this month so the weight comes off a little slower! I'm from the States (Colorado) but live in UK! Friend me if you like...sounds like we are in the same boat. I'm on around 1300 a day! Good luck!!

I know the race!! I've done the Grim and the Terminator but this one sounds too tough! (Ive done 4 half marathons and one full but think this would be toughert than those too) The thing is... get fit, sign up, and do it! These races are the most amazing atmosphere and you end up leaving any partners and fighting through it…

Wow, Iceland...you win!!!

From USA (Colorado) but live in England now (Surrey)!!

Gone are the days where nutritionist say not to eat the yolk!!! The WHOLE egg is one of the most perfect foods you can eat!! SOOO nutritious and satisfying!!! Enjoy!
