Just turned 42 and looking to lose 50-60lbs by my birthday in November. Looking to find support and give it!

I have been on the 1200 calories for about 10 days now and I'm not feeling hungry and I am also not eating back exercise calories.you can take a look at my diary if you like For my two cents, I don't think you are eating enough protein, fibre or fat for that matter. They are also the things that make you feel full longer.…

Hello, I'm starting Phase 2 on Monday as well and was just thinking I need to find out how other people are doing at this stage. Feel free to add me as a friend and good luck

welcome to the club, i am trying to lose roughly 50 lbs too. feel free to add me

I'd love to join, overall i'm pretty much no different than I was on January 1. now is a great time for re-establishing/ refocusing!

I can only speak for myself but eating "healthy" has definitely been cheaper for me. Mainly because I rarely eat out any more. I also do a big cook on the weekend and portion it out for my lunches and sometimes even my dinners. and I don't waste money on junk food binges. I also don't think i have to buy organic (15$ for a…

Hi everyone, I've always wanted to be a runner and have halfheartedly started c25k a few times in my life. I'm single and really want to drop around 40lbs total so I can feel great about myself again and have the confidence to get back in the game of life I hope by the end of my 9 weeks I will have lost at least 10lbs. I…

I was week 1 day 2 today, what App is everyone using? Mine doesn't give me any stats like everyone is quoting. I need a new app as it seems like good info to know.

I would! just started on monday, tomorrow will be my second run. I use the Get Running App - I really like it because a voice tells you when to run, when to walk half way/point etc and no issues with playing tunes at the same time.

I just started yesterday. It wasn't too bad but I may have just been on a high because I actually managed to get up and start ! there is a C25K group that is open for anyone to join, seems like lots of people posting there.

hilarious, and 100% right

sending you a friend request. 35, single and let me tell you, my weekends are a serious challenge due to the single lifestyle. i've been up and down the same 4 lbs for over 2 months and I'm about to tear my hear out!

I would try adding some protein to your breakfast. I've been eating breakfast at 7:15 , plain cheerios, 1tsp sugar with 1/2 cup skim milk, then add about 3 oz of lean ham (warmed up in microwave, almost as good as bacon!) I have a coffee at 9 and I can last till noon. . protein takes longer to digest than carbs so you feel…

another canuck here! welcome and good luck!. there is a lot of support on these boards and they really become addictive. Please feel free to add me to your friend list.

I was at a conference on Saturday where a nutritionist actually addressed just this issue. She was not a fan of melatonin. She recommended trying magnesium supplement before going to bed. Her rational was that magnesium is what our muscles need to relax (when we contract a muscle we draw calcium from our bones, when we…

Toronto here !

I'm definitely still in!

I recommend watching The Bitter Truth at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM this is a lecture from a professor at UCSF. It gets a bit long on the chemistry bits towards the end but really explains how the body treats different types of sugar.

this is exactly what i need!, count me in, now must go buy measuring tape
