I quit 2 & half yrs ago, gave myself 3 months & then really concentrated on my fitness, to get rid of the excess I gained. I guess it's personal, as to how you feel in your self & your motivation levels. Well done by the way :smile:

I weighed myself today out of curiosity & I'm actually down 2.4lbs now hehe typical, I'm not going to change it on the spread sheet though, I'm just going to continue to monitor & see how it goes :smile:

Yes I want to get at least one session of yoga in a week, it's so good, I love it, so must make the time for it!

I've heard that too, I don't buy it either. I know that if you do an action 100 times then the path in our brains becomes stronger & then can become auto-pilot, I think that may be where this comes from? I changed my lifestyle successfully a couple of years ago now, I lost loads of weight exercised 6 days a week, ate…

I've figured that I really need a rest day, so this will be a Sunday as I can then use that time to do some uni work whilst my partner is out doing his archery, so instead of missing out on my 70k steps for the week, I will try to go over every day so that it balances out! I have to remember a bit of self care is needed &…

I love this thread, it's really good to read everyone being so positive about themselves, it's inspiring & very motivating :smile:

I'm doing well on the water front & my walking goal of 10k steps a day.

If you can't get to a computer, you could always post in here & one of us lovely lot will add you to the spread sheet :smile:

ohhh thanks for that. That looks like an amazing hike! Wow! If I ever have the money to come over to the US I would most definitely like to attempt this :smile:

Hi all, you should all now be able to access the groups via your mobile, under the community heading on your mobile app; it shows the forums first, but if you scroll down to the groups you'll find us there :smile:

Woohoo this group is getting more active again yay :smile: I'm trying to drink at least 8 glasses of water this week Monthly goals are to be Chocolate & alcohol free & to complete my 20 day challenge of increasing amounts of squats, push ups, sit ups & plank!

Well I made good on my promise... Today I took a detour on the way to work adding another 10mins onto the journey & managed a 15min walk at lunch time. It all helps! tomorrow is a uni day, so that's a 20min walk both ways :smile:

So I just realized/noticed that the weigh in day is still Friday (always was, but I forgot). I'm now weighing in on a Wednesday, so I will be posting my weight on a Wednesday. That ok? I'm testing out something I read about Wednesday's giving a more consistent weight loss to see how that works out for me :smile:…

Hi feel free to add me. I love hiking & living in North Wales, UK there are plenty of gorgeous places to go like the lakes & mountains. I want to focus more on it this year too, so I am planning as many Saturday hikes as I can fit in (so far January is full :smiley: ) What is: It's my goal to thru-hike the PCT someday ???…

Had my first day back in work today after the holidays, not done much walking, so off for a walk soon. Been stuck at my desk filling in spread sheets today *Yawn* boring! Going to try to get more movement into my day tomorrow How's everyone else getting on?

ooooh great challenge... this won't be easy but here goes: What is your favorite thing about your appearance? *My eyes, they're very dark, almost black What is you greatest strength? *My Determination: when I put my mind to something I get very determined What is your proudest moment from 2014? *Running a 5K without any…

Ok so we need a challenge for this coming week... I think mine will be to make sure I'm drinking enough water - so drink 8 glasses of water a day! Any other ideas are welcome :smile:

Great to see more activity on here recently :smiley: For those new to the group welcome & feel free to join in our challenges & offer any suggestions, it all helps. I'm finding it easier to be more active on the groups now that MFP have added them to the mobile apps YAY!

Good to see a few people joining in, hope we get some more soon

Hi to all the new members of the group, it's lovely to have you on board, please feel free to add me, as I'm now back & very active on here again :smile: Also please feel free to join in on any discussion or challenge, all are always welcome

I'm back on this now, so have added myself to the spread sheet :smiley: You asked about ideas to make it more interactive: Maybe we could have weekly challenges that we all complete together, which could be fitness or nutrition based & check in daily/weekly with our progress? There used to be a lot of active members on…

I've set myself the goal of walking 100miles in January, thinking maybe in February I may try the C25K again, but see how January goes first :D

I'm back :) I'll be more active as I need to get back on this, last year I slipped. .. loads going on, but 2015 I plan to be more focused on my health x

From North East Wales, UK. (*)

Wasn't aware there was another group, so have joined that one now thanks

The link on the original thread for the spread sheet is https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Kv2JYFYt_DZ6Yod2pK5O3LDxQD79tMnA-et0sCKaQGc/edit#gid=0 I've struggled with the one here, but this link works for me :smile:

I'm looking forward to this, I think it will help keep me motivated on the days I don't want to go out & walk or cycle! :smile:

Hi I'm from North Wales, UK & I plan on walking & cycling :smiley:

I'm in. I have walking goals for January so hopefully this will help keep me on track :#

Feel free to add me. I've recently come back here as I've put 7lbs back on in my first year of uni (studying to be a Psychotherapist) & want to lose that & continue this time to my goal weight. I find MFP great for support & encouragement I log in every day & have already set my goals for January & am looking forward to…
