welcome from a fellow kiwi =)

i swear you could lose half a pound burping so i wouldnt say you've gone UP per se. id say you're staying the same. i know this isnt helping you as to why.

22, no kids 1st year working as a physio (is only an undergraduate degree in new zealand) glad to be done studying but every day is learning for me! I'm currently 74 kg and aiming for 65, lost 6kg already. (I'm 5'8 btw) Eating 1340. I like running and my flatmate won us a free 3month gym pass with personal trainer, so i…

i used that bmr calculator on fitnessfrog and it says 1573? but MFP has me on 1340 calories........

it sounds like muscle cramp. they still dont know what causes it. probably a multitude of factors. sometimes its magnesium not potassium. try your pharmacy they may have a mix that you can use. could also be overload - if you have recently increased your workload. meaning you have weak calves (and need to strengthen your…

and green day have a couple of 7 or 9 minute songs and if you learn all the words, that kills 10 mins so easily!!!

anything by three days grace keeps me going Harder to Breathe Maroon5 SOS (Rescue Me) Rihanna Another One Bites The Dust Queen Girlfriend Avril Lavigne Pump It Black Eyed Peas (the best!!!!) Here It Goes Again Ok Go She Wants To Move N*E*R*D Runnin' Down A Dream Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Around The World Daft Punk…

i start jogging at 5. but that kind of half/half uncoordinated jog. anything below 5.5 is too uncomfortable. i usually run at around 6. but im 5'8. (i had to convert this all from km lol)

mixing it with sauces. not sure what u have access to, but ill make "chicken tonight" butter chicken (lite), tomato pasta sauce with chicken and pasta, um peanut satay.... loads of options. and if it not healthy, just eat less ;)

try posture work (shoulder blade pinches) diaphragm pain (stitch) can also refer to neck/shoulder or see a physiotherapist ;)

rotator cuff strengthening. those muscles support the shoulder socket.

men would be upset if women thought it was that easy to bulk up hahaha

it would take a lot to pull your gluteus maximus. i have never heard of a pulled muscle that originates in your bum crack. try another doctor??

I find that anything that is mix-up from a powder is usually high in salt. Dips, soups, juice Also a lot of things that are low in calories/carbs/fat usually have to get their flavour from somewhere = salt.

i don't track my oil. but mostly cook on non-stick pan.

my mum makes this and she just uses instant coffee. but she makes up a full coffee with milk. not just a shot =) so might be more calories ;)

I don't usually plan cheat days coz they will come around once a week anyway!! Alcohol is the biggest one for me. Though I have just discovered vitafresh low calorie powdered juice so that will hopefully make it a bit less damaging. Plus I live with 3 other people and so sometimes they will cook something not so healthy so…

sushi is best takeaway food. i get salmon and avocado and its brilliant. just avoid the fried stuff

but yeah like somebody has said already - bum fat is healthier than tummy/chest fat

haha my friends called me bubble butt in highschool I'm skinny except for my bum. I also have lumbar lordosis which makes it look worse - http://www.centrofeldenkraiscsm.it/problematiche/images/lordosi.png if you have this - stretch your hip flexors and strengthen your core to help reduce it

Holey sh*tballs. I'm 5'8, I looked horrible at 55kg. But that may be my body shape - long arms and no boobs I'm currently 77kg and aiming for 65kg at lowest.

reward yourself with non-food items. ie new clothes, or something else you are saving for a trip to movies minigolf spa or nice bath nice fruit - blueberries/peaches/raspberries - stuff you might not usually afford to splash out on

i add chunks of lemon to my water occ.

She's just jealous that you've succeeded. If she wants to go to taco bell - why not suggest a healthier place. We don't have taco bell here so not sure if it's better or worse than subway, but maybe you could invite her for dinner or go somewhere healthier. I can see her side where she just wants to hang with her friend…

when i was at uni, this all-boy flat used to have a competition. weigh in before and after. list it on the back of the bathroom door - some of them were like a kg!!!! crazy haha

500 cal burnt a day?? That is a lot I think, you might just be getting tired. I generally do 200cal and with work as well I'm usually pooped. Do you have rest days?

soy and linseed is very low GI though, so have that for brekkie and might not need anything till lunchtime. marmite is gold - almost no calories.

I eat what I want, but in moderation. Can check out my diary if you like. This is hard for me though, I love food. I think normally I'd eat 3x this!!

haha we drank a lot of water and we debated a fishing sinker or two!!! =P just kidding

It's in New Zealand. It's called "new you for new years" 3 month challenge. biggest loser wins the prizes. just a promotion i think.
