i love a nap, but it must be on the sofa, i can't nap in bed unless i'm ill, but just put me on the sofa with some lame daytime tv (murder she wrote or similar) and its bliss just to nod off for a couple of hours

*waves* i'm in cheshire feel free to add me

search the groups, there is at least 1 c25k group on here, i'd post the link to it but pesky work computer doesn't copy and paste for some reason

i use a hrm to monitor my cals and created an exercise for each kinect game i use then just add the time and cals burnt as i use them, not sur if that helps or not

when i saw this pop up in the recent topics i was so excited to see what had happened and i'm so happy i could burst, i always thought things like this didn't happen in real life lol. congratulations, enjoy yourselves but take it slowly. :smooched:

instead of *****ing that the dog isn't trained, train it. it will make your life easier and you may start to understand why people care about animals the way they do. if you are spending time there the dog will associate things with you and you will be able to get it to do things it doesn't currently do in a relatively…

shock absorber have a specific one for running B5044 is the model number, i have two of them and they are great i may not be huge but they keep my 34DDs under control whilst out running

fish can be quite good microwaved, we only really use ours for veggies though

there is a lot to be said for a positive mental attitude

i think about what i have achieved. yesterday was terrible for me due to various reasons i ended up making really bad food choices and really aggravated an injury which may mean a few weeks on the sidelines, i was feeling really bad about myself, so i picked apart what i had done that day, it turns out that the mile i ran…

stop spending money on expensive shoes and start spending it on a podiatrist. they will be able to assess what problems you may or may not have and will prescribe the best course of action, you probably will need orthotics but they come in various types and sizes and over the counter ones may not be suitable, see what they…

hi there, thats a classic way of starting to jog/run. at the end of the day do what you feel comfortable with, don't set off too fast and enjoy yourself, there are lots of apps out there for couch 2 5km (c25k) which is a 9 week programme for beginners but don't feel the need to use it (there is also a group on here too), a…

I have a gym memebership but haven't been in months due to life getting in the way (been exercising at home though) and i'm really wanting to get back into it at the moment but am waiting until mid feb so that its a bit quieter and i don't get wrongly labeled as a resolutionist. i personally don't think its fair to say its…

to the poster wondering if the chest strap was comfy, its just like band on a sports bra, its nice and wide so doesn't dig in or cause discomfort

i spent 7 ish years in wallsend if that counts, not lived there since 0ct 2006 though. i miss the north east, tyneside always felt like home

hi Jackie, friend request sent as i'm also in cheshire

london will be a nightmare, but the rest of the uk will be a sea of relative calm even the other olympic venues

mine are great

not so sunny cheshire here but origninally from the north-east (cleveland then newcastle), always on the look out for uk friends but rarely send requests so feel free to add me

me!!! i never run with music on, i run on and near roads and the drivers round here aren't exactly brilliant, i really need to be able to hear them, plus i like to hear the birds chattering away, i run outside to enjoy the outdoors why shut half of that enjoyment out

my word you really are excited lol. welcome to mfp, i hope you reach all your goals :-)

i refuse to give up trying

oh hell, i started week 5 this week and hadn't looked at each work out, i'm glad i spotted this, not sure if i'm ready for a 20 minute run yet, in theory i should be i was running 20 mins before starting c2k5 (was trying to stop myself going too far too fast), but now i'm scared lol

i'm currently doing c25k so can't even run 5k at the moment but just looked at my stats and including my warm/up cool down walks my average pace is in the 13 min miles area just started week 5 today

hi i'm ruth, i'm currently 31 and i live in cheshire with my boyfriend richard and his dog lenny. i work at a small train station and pretty much do everything that needs doing, when i can be bothered, but essentially its a very sedantry job apart from when the weather is 0c or below then we have to grit the station which…

i get so tired of having to edit my posts on here before i send them, i swear like a trooper, love dirty jokes, does not get easily offended and if i were i'd come right out and tell ya rather than *****ing about it behind your back, but i'm not a music nerd, i like it but i couldn't tell you who was in the charts right…

fat fighters? whats that whens it on what channel? yes i'll be watching biggest loser, which i could get the american version

sleepy is one of my most supportive buddies on here, and he's a great inspiration, well worth adding him. feel free to add me too

did anybody see the diets that time forgot that was on channel 4 (uk) a couple of years ago, that was a really interesting series, taking 4 diets that had been all the range in the past hundred years or so and seeing their actual effectivness. i mention it as the one that worked best in the duration of the study was based…

smaller plates worked for me, tricked my mind into thinking i'd eaten more. also eat using chopsticks (obviously some meals are easier than others) it takes longer so the body has more time to register the food you have eaten. chewing your food lots helps also again for the time reason plus digestion starts in the mouth so…
