I have a line on my arm again. *squee*

An outdoor theatre is playing 'The Princess Bride" at 9pm. I am getting a chocolate bouquet delivered to his work (chocolate truffles on sticks wrapped in paper like flowers) as a surprise. When we get home we will head out for dinner then to the park for the movie.

Thanks! The website has been updated since I last looked. This is a heck of a target for me.

I am repeating week 5 this week. Did not manage day 3 so will try again this week. Good luck to everyone else. The earlier weeks felt harder than the first 2 days of week 5.

For me, if I change everything at once I am setting myself up to fail. My first steps have been to start with recording what I am eating, then try to keep this within the goal given by MFP. Then I introduced some exercise. Next I will increase the intensity of the exercise and look at improving my diet. Food is the hardest…

The option is under Settings on the top right, then the sub-menu 'Diary Settings'. It would be great if the Reports allowed you to see your calories under each meal over weeks or months. Even comparing percentages could be interesting and useful.

I have stumbled at week 5 day 3. I only ran for 15 minutes, then after a couple of minute break ran for another 2 minutes. I will continue with week 6 next week and am trying not to be discouraged. The distance moved and calories burned still show a lot of progress, and until today the longest I had run on a treadmill…

Wow - a lot of variation. I like the hobbit theme :)

Thanks Bonjour24. Week 5 session 2 was a lot easier than I expected (2x 8 minute runs) so I am actually looking forward to tomorrow's 20 minute run.

The feedback on this thread is likely to leave you more confused as there are lots of different methods which work for different people, and many people insist their preferred method is the ONLY method you should use. I prefer to log my exercise and have the choice to eat back the calories or not. The link you provided…

I am using a treadmill and have the walking times written in a notebook. I am on Week 5 now and am working to complete the programme as written rather than repeating weeks otherwise I know I will cheat myself rather than push myself.
-
:laugh: Good luck! I think C25K works for me in a few ways. I can focus on different goals whether it is "just another 2 minutes until this run is over", or "this session is 2/3rds done", or "Week 5 is over half way." I trust in a programme that has worked for many others. I can just trust that I can make each milestone. I…

It was hard for me to feel like there was ever a good time to start the 9-week programme. I did not start in December due to Xmas, last week I found Auckland Anniversary Day a challenge (as Mondays is one of my usual days), and this week not only is Waitangi Day on a Wednesday, but I am also on the later shift at work. I…

Thanks for all the great posts.

Other options are: * soup (like thick liquids soups as watery broths might not be filling and chunky sounds obviously are not good) * scrambled egg * meal replacement drinks * mashed potato (and other veges like pumpkin, carrots, parsnip, etc) I did not have to go without solid food for very long. There are quite a lot of…

I have stopped eating at my desk at work and buying treats to and from work. Even having my usual lunch, if I eat while working or surfing the net I don't seem to notice the food therefore feel hungry - like eating never happened. I am more tempted to eat later on. I find alternating between different tea flavours (right…

Hi, I am Kat. I have been using MFP 4 days a week for a few months (skipping Fri, sat, Sun when I know I eat a lot more junk). My next step was to join a gym and start going regularly (I am halfway through the C25K). Now I am using MFP daily. Most days I am aiming for 1200, though sometimes I eat my exercise calories and I…

Thanks for the link. I have joined as well.

We start with pure milk chocolate... Add a layer of farm-fresh honey... Then we sprinkle on four kinds of sugar... And dip it in rich, creamery butter... -- The candy bar from hell, ``Bart's Friend Falls in Love'

Thanks for posting/replying. I am feeling quite motivated starting week 5. It is going to be different than the other weeks in a few ways since I will be running before work (usually go after work), it is the first week where all 3 days are not the same, and I am going on different days of the week due to Waitangi Day.…

I have not taken specific before pictures or started on progress shots (it has only been a few weeks) but I have seen a difference in candid shots. I really like the website My Body Gallery to get a real sense of how my dimensions can look - http://www.mybodygallery.com/. I think it is important for me to learn that…
