Sorry I have been a bit AWOL, it's really been a week here. On the good news front, I am all but over my cold now, and my covid test came back negative. On the bad news front, my hubby, who has a full mouth of dental implants, cracked the plate on his implant so he had to go to our nearest regional city to see his dentist…

@laurelfit57 Great weigh in! @Cornanda I also need to flex my resistance muscle - it's waning!! @TeresaW1020 Awww that's cute! Like he didn't want to hurt your feelings. The other day I was rolling a toy tyre across the floor with my little guy and it crashed into the wall, he looked up at me and said "nice try, Mummy"…

Oh dear! I do not envy you right now! I'm at home sick with a cold this week. My workplace has a covid rule where we can't be on site if we have any cold/flu symptoms so that kinda sucks. I can work from home, but it's a quiet week so I'm taking a few days to get better. Going for a covid test this arvo just in case, but…

Hi Anna! Welcome :smile: Good on you for sticking with it this time - you're right, we all have to find what works for us!

Hi Jess, glad to see you here! 20kg is a great effort - congrats! I'm also looking forward to being able to shop in normal stores, especially for things like jeans - City Chic is great, but sometimes I just want normal brands! Isn't it amazing how much our portions creep up if we're not watching? I was amazed when I first…

I have my private health insurance through Medibank, and they have an app called Live Better, where you can perform healthy tasks to earn rewards points, and those points can be redeemed for things like reduced premiums, wearable trackers (Apple Watches, Fitbits etc), headphones, or vouchers for their partners (like Amcal…

Hi @siobhank6079 I am also 35 with PCOS - though a lot more to lose than you! I have sent you a friend request :smile:

A few things: 1. Firstly, congratulations on your new bub! 2. I know you probably have spoken with your doctor already, but please consider increasing from 1200 calories a day while you're breastfeeding - 1200 is generally the minimum calories for an adult female to support bodily functions, when you're supporting another…

This TDEE method works if your exercise is consistent. If you're ever ill or injured or busy and can't exercise (or limited exercise), then you'd need to remember to reduce your calorie goal to account for that. Agree that the exercise calories can be overestimated, a lot of people choose to only eat back a portion of…

I do something like this, but not with numbers as extreme. I like to have a beer or two on weekends and found that if I split my calories evenly over the week, I would always go over on weekends. So I reduced my calories through the week to allow for more on the weekends - I now do 5 days of 1600 calories and 2 days of…

I can see 123 references at the bottom of the article. Right above the comment section.

@TeresaW1020 That's a great graphic! Reminds me of a boss fight in gaming :wink: My legs are holding up ok from the squat challenge! I don't struggle with squats too much, now if we were talking lunges that's a different story! And I feel kind of duped when I saw split squats a few days ago :lol: I had a decent day…
