LOOOOOOOOL my wife is pre-menopausal so maybe i'm suffering from smypathetic-menopause

I'm back here after a few years and this topic was highlighted as (13.5K new) :D This must be the biggest thread on here. I better post something other than an observation: I'm getting to like my kettlebells and don't see them as the enemy and found a ton of exercises on YouTube, the 'Press Combo' one is my new favourite;…

hi! that is very interesting... I did Atkins way, way back when it was fashionable and now that I think about it, there are some similarities now to how I felt then. I'm not consciously keto/low carb this time but I have definitely cut out a lot of carbs with no snacking. You're right, that heat can also be expressed as…

thanks, everyon,e for the replies It's just turned spring but still chilly in the UK. I go for a 3hr walk every early evening (at a brisk pace) which gets the blood flowing and I have never experience what I mentioned. It really does seem tied into the first few days of calorie control. I hadn't even attributed it to blood…

thanks, that does seem unfair but at least i know now!

Q: if you pre-log, and then don't log in for a few days, do you lose your streak?
-
Staggering, just staggering

Time schmime! the fact you can do a 5K means you can do a 5K, that is a massive accomplishment. The pace will come later!

weird, seen this post before and she only has 5 posts.

shin splints can really stop progress, the advice is to basically rest.

After 3 months of 5K distances I did 10K for the first time last night. It was a much slower pace (62mins) compared to my 5K pace (26min) but I just wanted to see if I could actually do it. Such an amazing feeling. I finally feel like I can call myself a runner. So to all you C25K users out there, keep at it, it does get…

Before Parkruns (weekly 5K events) I have a coffee, banana and one of those breakfast bar things (100cal), the payoff is when I get home and have my favourite 'poor man's deviled eggs' which is 3 hard boiled eggs smashed up with a fork and some english mustard/ mayo on toast. I can't cook.

:) today I bought a laundry basket exclusively for workout clothing for a weekly Sportswear wash.. I don't even know if proper athletes even bother with that.
-
so true, that cliche that all you need to run are a pair of shoes may be true but doesn't really consider the GPS watch, tights, wicking top, Hyper Thermal hoodie and cushioned socks. At least I haven't got a premium Strava subscription....yet.

:D yes W5D3 caught me completely by surprise, I honestly thought it was a bug in my app and had to look it up to see if it was a mistake. The thing is though the programme is so sneaky it's actually got you to the point where you can do a straight 20min without you even realising. Amazing really. C25K is actually amazing.

WTAF!

Yes! I've started running, I've done 7 x 5Ks now, 3/week which includes Parkruns on Saturdays. I actually like running- immediately at the point when I stop running- the whole 'during' running thing I can take or leave but the feeling at the end is amazing.
-
Not a graph but this is how it went down

200lbs! Well done Magic Mike (I always see your name as Magic Mike)
-
yay! MFP gets recognised
-
LOL yes the shirt tug/ trouser pull - also I'm never ever going to do the t-shirt w/shirt combo again, I used to think it was some optical illusion that made me look slim but I was kidding myself.
-
oh yeah, that is a stubborn area who's not on the program!
-
where can I find my pooch area please?
-
that is MENTAL. I mean, I've seen many of these here by now and have become a bit desensitised but that is CRAY-ZEE.

You just need the crowbar

I could only hit Awesome once!

Found out what the button that appeared in the middle of my chest is. It's a xiphoid process, which in itself is quite a cool name, and sounds better than 'button'.

DUUUUUUUUDE!

I'm not sure how to directly upload from a phone, there is a convoluted way by uploading to Imagur then getting a 'direct link' and posting that here, but on a desktop it's really easy to just attach pics. Maybe someone else will chip in with help uploading from mobile. You look amazing in your profile pics btw!

you're killing it! and I was going through your list nodding my head in recognition.
