Do you have any health care numbers you can ring in your country? In NZ we have a number you can call and speak to a nurse and they recommend whether you can wait, or whether you need to see a doctor or go to Emergency Department. Numbness is not always ideal, but depends if it just feels weird or literally you cannot feel…

Only thing you can really do at the moment is heat or ice. Do you have any pain/pins&needles/numbness down your arms?

See a physiotherapist :)

Pain is always worth getting checked out.

Ha! I do that all the time! Just looked pissed off and people don't bother you lol.

Peanut butter, avocado, nuts, chicken, brown rice, yogurts, Just examples - I'm not sure where you draw the line at healthy :)

My first few days doing MFP my food diaries were DOUBLE what I was aiming to eat! But you just find alternate things that are healthier and slowly it starts coming down to where you want it to be :)

I think just have a small healthy snack. Carrots, 10 almonds, that type of thing. I doubt that would ruin your hard work and stop you getting hungry. This programme is not a perfect science. I believe I need a little more because my job is mentally straining, which I think = calories :). Also 1kg per week is quite high, I…

Do you have access to a hand cycle machine. Where you sit and peddle with your hands? That is one option. You could do upper limb exercises in sitting. Such as shoulder press, lat pull downs. I would concentrate on getting better, keep an eye on what you're eating and rest the next few weeks. You don't want to traction…

I do 250ml

print your original post out and show the doctor

hi from the waikato. ps walking will be good knee strengthening for your arthritis. if it gets a bit niggly (as it can), try some walking in the pool for a bit less pressure on your knees. =) x

yeah i aim to get the 3 vege servings at dinner but sometimes depends on what my flat mates cook. usually get onion, carrot and broccoli. at least. though the last two weeks havent been so good. iv told them i want veges but they count potato and kumera as vegies and they already think im anal enough as it is. ;) though i…

yeah id just log it raw

smaller plate at dinner, not as much alcohol (used to binge every saturday), less fast food, less mindless eating just because im bored. edit: also less chips and dip. whole bag of potato chips and onion soup + (whole can of) reduced cream dip.

could always use the videos and do the workout at the gym

i use food scales put my plate on, zero it add the starchy's, zero it add the meat, zero it i dont weigh my veggies. i weighed them the first time and i have about the same amount every time. plus not so much change if u are 10g out with those.

cheese!!, bread, cake, milo, salt and vinegar potato chips and onion dip, bacon, WINEEEEEE, lollies, chocolate, orange juice, vodka, i could go on ;) that quote is so untrue on many levels. im such a foodie =) but i still eat most of those, just in moderation. (the chips i cant fit in at the moment but i found salt and…

i used to be really bad with dinner. eating till i was in pain. i now eat on a smaller plate. which helps the other day i felt sick after dinner at mums place after overeating and wondered why i felt horrible. but it was because i hadnt felt that overeating pain in the two months id been on mfp.

I think you sound ungrateful too. An MRI costs $1000 regardless. If you don't want to pay it, why should someone else pay it. And 3 weeks. That is nothinggggg. I have patients with sore knees for months. Healing takes time. I would see a physiotherapist ;)

another vote here for strength training

nuts. 15 nuts is like 100 calories. so.... 150 nuts??? lol just kidding. maybe have some nuts and low fat milk or yogurt and leave it at that.

see a physio. could be glut med tendinopathy which needs totally different treatment.

i only congratulate people for food if i see what theyv eaten and i think its a good day lol - even if that is over

22, first year out of university. getting rid of the wine belly ;) 6kg to go (lost 9 already) and want to get stronger + fitter - i can now do press ups which I could never do before :) anyone can add me if they like

i agree with the wrist measurement thing. but ur bones have to stick out. u can try ur elbow too. i think some people have bigger and smaller frames but it changes your goal size by like less than 10kg (20lb). so only people close to their goal should be worried about frame size. if you have more than 10kg (20lb) to lose,…

people who don't indicate at all. or early enough. people who pull out and dont speed up or pull left for me to pass (we drive on the left in nz) or people who drive more than 20k below the speed limit and dont pull over to let the 55 billion cars behind them to pass people without their lights on when visibility is crap…

I agree that body fat calculations are the gold standard. But not as easily accessible and even if you buy skin fold callipers - it doesnt mean you are measuring it correctly! I use my waist/hip/etc measurements to calculate my BF % and compare that with my personal trainers and mine is always lower than his by like 3%…
