To be honest I believe that everyone should visit the doctors before embarking on a fitness routine. Its important to make sure you are healthy.

Don't worry about that. Bananas are good.

My heart problems were discovered when I tried to get fit. I was 21 and couldn't jog. Kept trying it thinking I could push through and ended up in hospital. I had just assumed I was unfit. Getting fit was an extremely long process for me because of that. It would be a very good idea to get checked out.

Invest in a good sports bra. I am a G cup and a sports bra is a must for pretty much all exercise. My fave for jogging is Freya underwired. It starts at a D cup and goes up to H. No movement and has not losened with wear. Not very pretty bra but does the job. I also like Max Sports Bra. It goes from D to HH and looks good.…

I would not recommend having it more than once a week. If you can stay within your calories and eat it then you will lose weight however its not very healthy.

I will add you. I have lost 50lbs in the past 4 years (extremely slow weight loss!). Its pretty tough but so worth it.

I have had it 2 years now. Mood swings are much less than periods or the pill for me. Have very irregular periods on them but I had irregular periods anyway. I was kinda hoping they would stop altogether however they are signifcantely lighter and shorter now. Spots wise, I tend to break out before my period starts. Its…

I just added you. Marriage does seem to increase the weight gain. It is reversable though!

I got tested by a professional last year and I was 21% body fat. That online test said 25% body fat. I weigh less than I did last year but am not as thin so may have a little less muscle.

There was one girl yesterday who turned up in a low cut light coloured top and a bright red push up bra. I don't tend to notice people but I couldn't help but notice her. As someone who can only exercise in sports bras it did make me wonder how she would do anything remotely energetic.

What really bothered me about the Australian one is that the winner in season 2 was not doing it a healthy way. He was doing so much exercise and was not eating properly. In the end he looked ill not healthy. I would love to know what he looks like now. He needed to gain some weight.

If I want it I can work off the calories before I have it. Its worked well so far. Managed to work off a whole pizza before I ate it recently.

Try here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_fat_percentage When I had mine tested I was told between 20 and 29% was good for a woman.

I am planning one in July.

Glad you have that figured. Good nutrition is essential for long term maintenance.

Chocolate. I have switched to the good quality dark chocolate though. Might as well make it as healthy as possible.

It looks like you are already doing a great job at home. Yes it will take longer but hopefully that will leave you more determined to stick with it.

You have received some great advice here. I always hated peppers but kept giving them a go. Now I love them. It really is a case of retraining yourself.

Wow your pictures really are inspiring. You have done an amazing job.

1.4lbs today. A little faster than I was planning but it means less than 4lbs to go.

I make sure I work the calories off before having them. I still have the junk food every now and then but will not if it does not fit in my calorie counting.

The hardest part is getting through the door. After that its easy. Go a little early and let the instructor know you are new. They will likely tell you the best place to be to be able to see properly. One class using weights I went to the instructor assigned a regular to help me get everything together. It was great and…

Mine is dying too. I hate seeing her suffer. She was such a cute friendly little creature. I really hope mine goes sooner rather than later because she doesn't look good.

Member name: fuzzymel Starting weight: 157 Weight: 155 1.27 % Lost: Weekly Goal: Long walk I actually ran 30 minutes so achieved my weekly goal last week.

You both have done an amazing job.

Its true for me but the weight does go away again so it only lasts a few days. I know I am not eating more on those days.

I want to do a 5k this year.

i am 5'8 and am aiming for 150lbs

6lbs in a month is very healthy. Its over 1lb a week. Thats a big sucess.

I lost 2lbs this week so that leaves 5lbs to go. So close now!
