Hi there, have not read all messages in this thread fully but thought I would post my story. I don't have Graves but do have an underactive thyroid.... When we investigated I had more symptoms than I realised and the doc was pretty sure that my blood test would come back low... I had previously had 3 tests in the past 10…

I'm gathering that the aim is to get moving but how does one join and what is involved? Why are there $$ in the *kitten* for the title? It is raising money for something??

I thought the same as well and have checked in a few different places. All give roughly the same calorie burn.. The one below is 490 calories based on 70kg weight http://caloriecount.about.com/calories-burned-skindiving-a530 This one gives 393 calories which would give me probably 300 calories less per 3 dives than MFP (so…

Been using the calories burnt when I entered 60min scuba in the MFP exercise option. 488 for a 60min dive is what they say. Where can I get a more accurate guide?

thats what I think but can't work out what. But my main question is why did I NOT loose weight with all the additional exercise.

I am using the exercise option in MFP to enter scuba calories burnt. It is a fair amount for 60minutes. But even not considering the calories burnt I was doing heaps more exercise than normal and not eating much more and was surprised that it didn't make a difference. Have you entered your dives as exercise and seen how…

Just wondering what has happened to my weight loss lately. I recently went on a scuba diving holiday. I did 19 dives in 7 days which is much more exercise than normal. While I did eat a little less carefully than at home I did not stray too far from sensible eating. Each of these dives was within a few minutes either side…

I lost 9kg very quickly and have spent the last 3 months sitting at the same weight. But have recently lost another 2kg. I think it works for me because it makes me think about what I am eating. A friend has also lost 22kg over a 12 mth period.
