Hi Everyone! I did week 1 day 1 last night too! Tried it up a hill and almost killed myself so im sticking to FLAT! But i loved it and im feeling motivated, slightly sore nothing too bad! 3 weeks ago i was very sick and could barely walk a few yards, so im so proud to have made day 1 even :D Yay to the C25k!

I think it differs for each person! Low calorie diets dont work for me, low carb high protein however does! Its finding what is right for you really, and i am cautious of carbs as i know my body 1) Gets sluggish 2) Stores them. Not everything is a closed book.

Im also terrified of carbs, its really screwed up my head! I was on Atkins and i had it drummed into me how bad they are, so any carbs i feel so guilty about these days!

1. I'm Hailee 2. Im about to embark on Week 1 day 1 this evening 3. I have no goal, only to reach the end 4. Ive tried running and cant do it, i enjoy it, but cant go very far so its a challenge for me! I want to say ive run 5k! Im trying to lose weight and i hope it kick starts my metabolism as i have thyroid issues!

Thanks for the help! Sorry its just some of my posts arent read properly before comments are made! I didnt mean it to be horrible!

No i said i have no equipment! Thanks ill try that Sophie :)

Ooh fab bobsy thats worth looking into the HRM! I love the music while i jog! I kinda of go somewhere in my own world hehe

ktkoopman thats bloody amazing! Wow! Thanks for the valuable advice! Is there a couch to 5k to log excercise on MFP? Ive just tried to search and i dont see...

Thanks mizzladylisa :)

Wow your all fabulous! I have to pull this off! Just need to wait to get my new specs, or ill be running off the road!!!

mmmh a path would be better! Would it count running up one road and back down and up etc? Its still runing isnt it! I have one road at the back of my house flat you see!

Thanks good advice! I was doing it over the winter but didnt have a proper regime i was just going out running and walking what i could! So this is going to be excellent!

Thanks, ive just got the app on my iPhone! Question....Did you have lots of hills and downhills, i live on a mountain, it shouldnt matter too much no?

well done ingeh!! rosalindphyllis hit the nail on the head, thats the sort of excercise i meant!

Hahaha i cant run for a minute either! Ive tried walk then jogging! But really dont run for long! I fancy doing it as it will be a huge achievement for me not for a race, and it really appeals to me so ill stick to it i hope!

Yep im loving fruits and vegetables and meat! All fairly plain! No bloating! No millions of carbs! Carbs for me is straight to my stomach! Im quite fancing the couch to 5k...

Great thanks! Im not great with the abbreviations!

billsica thats an interesting one! Will have a look for the app!

What is spot reduction? Ooh and NSV ive seen this on the forum i wasnt sure! Yeah what i mean is, toning and building muscle, what excercises are the best? Ofcourse losing weight will reduce it!

Mine too! It's horrid! I could barely swallow! But no they haven't mentioned surgery! I think T3 is called Cytomel in some places!

Hi all Gosh lots of you all with thyroid problems!! LisaI have a goitre too and nodules my neck was very swollen up until the doc gave me T3 the doctor before him said 'do nothing' I wish my thyroid was just a case of hypothyroidism but it's much more complicated and a lot of doctors are mis-educated!! They tell me to lose…

I know dear! Im in Cyprus and theres only like 5 doctors! Ive seen 2 and they shrug me off! My T3 is very low but TSH normal so they refuse that my thyroid isnt working! Ive been taking T3 hormone and already my thryoid has shrunk back down so its working!

I did 7months of dieting and excercising 4 times a week and lost not 1lb! But i cant get it trreated yet theres no cure until its eats my thyroid i guess and it no longer works! Its super hard! Im so worried!

I lost nothing for months!

Hi I started the Atkins type diet yesterday, i did it at the beginning of last year and i lost almost a stone. Ive tried low calorie intake but its does not work at all for me, the only thing that does work is low carbs and high protein!! I do get bored of it though and get put off certain foods, but im desperate to lose…

Thanks Flossy will check those out :)

Thanks for the replies, in January im going for desperate measures - low carb high protein....low calories just doesnt do for me!

Hi Ladies, Well another week another chance!!! Are you all ssticking to it as best you can?

Hi I also did Level 1 of 30 day shred its bloody hard, i think a little too much with my back problem but i felt it work all my muscles and just 20 minutes was a killer!

Hi grls, quick questions about the 30 day shred, do you do a 20 minute workout every day for 30 days?? Is that how it works? xxx
