Looking good :)

What about: Commit to be Fit Why put off feeling good?............................................... Not easy is it?!

This is 'free' on slimming world uk, nice with a salad or baked beans!! Don't miss the pastry at all.

Hi I'm Linda, and nearly 43 eek and live in Cornwall! I started Slimming World (again) last week and had my first weigh in last night and lost 3.5lb. I am really good at starting things and then get bored, but as I have very few clothes that fit me at the moment I desperately want to stay motivated this time just so I…

Hello! Will add you, I took part in the so called 'fun' run this morning with my 6 year old - it almost killed me!!! My daughter left me and finished a good 5 minutes before me eek!

Just across the tamar bridge!

Good luck on your journey, I also started this last year and gave up after week 3 I think. I have just completed W4D1 and am loving it!! I am not a runner and have a lot of weight to loose but I am enjoying it and am determined to finish it this time. I think posting on these boards is a great boast so make sure you keep…

My breathing is definately the worse part of running for me. Cold mornings are the worse for me. I have tried the recommended breath in for 4 and breath out for 4 but I just panic doh! I do use my enhalers before I go which does seem to help. I know, from past running, that the fitter I become through running the better my…

Finished W2D3 today, and really enjoyed it, I don't if thats because I knew I didn't have to get ready for work but it felt different today. I am looking forward to starting W3 on Monday, lets hope I am still feeling positive after that one! Have a lovely weekend everyone :)

Wow, well done, I look forward to that day :)!

Just completed W2D2, am finding that 90 seconds last a long time when you're not fit! I'm sure it will get better..?! On the plus side it was a lovely morning and I always feel good about myself once I have finished!

1 = W2D2 2 = Monday, Wednesday and Friday - plus I plan to run a few Saturdays 3 = To prove to myself I can complete something - and lose some weight 4 = To breath better when running, and run 5k without stopping 5 = I'm from England (Don't think thats so random but can't think of anything!!!) Oh I know I get up at 5.45am…

Cornwall, England!

Hiya, I am also in my 40's and going through the same thing as you, so was pleased (sorry!) to read your post - I'm not alone! I am okay with yogurts but icecream, milk, anything creamy within the hour i look and feel 6 months pregnant, stomach cramps and the toilet becomes a regular place to visit lol!!! I am reading…

I have just asked the same question, wondered about aerobics high impact as well, I've done it a few times now but never logged it and it sure is a good workout!:happy:

Good luck on our journey, I have the same problem as you hit 40 and my scales are just beeing kind to me or my clothes come to think of it!!:laugh:

:flowerforyou: There is a great topic on here called 'October No Late Night Snacking' - it challenges you to set a time to stop eating and get your alarm clock to go off 15 minutes before to remind you. Although I haven't been using an alarm clock it certainly has made me think about snacking and why I do it and it is…

me: 3 - Snacks: 1 I love this challenge it has really made me focus on what I eat in the evening, and am pleased that the naughty snacked are left in the cupboard for my girls who I originally buy them for !!!!:drinker:

Hi Sue Welcome to MFP, I have just completed the first week, although I haven't lost that much this week, I think with the support of my new friends on here I may actually keep loosing and keep it off for once! Its a great site. Good luck from England!!! :happy:

Hi Junerenee, This is the first time I have contributed to message boards and have to say I'm really enjoying it so far! This website is bril I also love the fact that you can log so much of what you eat, its a real eye opener isn't it? Good luck with your journey perhaps by using th website you may find you can lose the…

I don't think I will be able to give up coffee but it was quite interesting realising the calorie value. I tend to drink around 3 a day during the week and probably 3 or 4 during the weekend it depends on how socialable I am being! I do try to drink water, I am much better when I am work as I always have a bottle beside…

Hello Well done on your great weight loss :) I have my first weigh in on Thursday and I doubt if I will lose that much but any would be great! I have two daughters aged 5 and 9 and work ful-time. I have never been happy with my weight but this year I have put on over a stone in just a few months, so finding this website…

Sounds like a fab challenge - can I join, night time snacking is my downfall. So for me no snacking after 8.00pm :)

Hiya I have also just joined, I have enjoyed reading other posts and keeping a record of my food intake, I was shocked yesterday how many calories just eating a 'few snacks' lol! I am feeling quite positive which I haven't felt in ages so hope it continues. Actually this is the firt time I have ever joined in with a…

Hiya, I only started probably yesterday and so far I have found MFP excellent, it is a real eye openner seeing my food diary, I have realised already that little snacks soon take all my allocated calorie allowance, in fact when I got back in just now rather than get a few biscuits with my drink I made a green tea instead…

Wow you can really tell, you look so much younger. Not sure if I have the convenience to post picture, perhaps when I lost some I will do something similar - well done :)

Hiya, Thanks for your kind messages - I am really glad I found this site and look forward to losing weight with you all!!!!!! I know that exercise is the key with me and with your help and guidance I may just find my motivation once more!! :) Linda

Hi Linda Very sorry to read about your loss, I can't even begin to think what it must be like. I have joined today and I am a Linda as well!! Good luck with your journey :) Lindax
