Second round of Insanity and on Month 2, really love this workout programme.. have done T25 and Charlean Extreme, but this is by far the best for a good cardio work out... enjoy the experience

Im 51, last December felt the same way and though enough was enough, so started with exercise burning calories, discovered MFP, so started calories and here i am now, still a bit to go but getting there. You have started the journey by logging here, find what fits into your daily routine and enjoy the journey.

Agree with all that has been said so far, target 1lb a week weight loss, don't go in guns blazing, reducing calorie intake down to the amount a sparrow can consume in a day. The biggest hurdle we (and i say we in our 50's have to over come), is to kick start that metabolism again, unfortunately at our ages it slows down,…

Decathlon do a decent range of workout gear

I have completed Insanity, and the advice i would give is stick at it, work through the pain (it goes after a few days) work to your own pace and you will reap the benefits. yes you sweat, yes you get out of breath, but you will find out that after a few weeks your body recovery rate becomes better, you feel better and…

South Yorkshire, Sheffield here, Been using MFP tracking calories and exercise since Christmas, also use Fitbit for tracking daily activities. Got a target to reach for December 2013, so here for a while,,,,,,, anyone on a similar journey feel free to add me.

My first goal was to loose 2 stone by end of May 2013, which i achieved, I have now extended that to another 2 stone by end of december 2013, i think its going to be a little tougher, but will stick at it and see where it takes me.

By signing up on here, you have made the commitment, logging the daily inputs and outputs helps, and makes your conscious of what you need to do to lose weight................ good luck on the journey

I use the Fitbit one, goes in my pocket when i get up in the morning and then, put by the side of the bed when i go to sleep, never leaves my side. I think this is a good indicator of you daily activity, but that it, i don't read to much into the exact calorie counts,, thats what i use my MFP for. I always data input the…

On MFP for health style change and its working, realising its also good to share and assist others too..................... Things not to do while naked, sitting on leather or plastic furniture on a hot day :noway:

Good to see some from the UK on here

Ive completed Insanity now, did the world of good for me, got me fitter than i have been in a long time, weight loss was steady averaging 1lb a week with an average diet and burning approx. 1000 cal more than my intake. I plateau'd with about 3 weeks to finish the programme, so have now started the Charlean Extreme one to…

I normally have my chicken kebad special, but leave the pita bread out :-)

3 meals a day for me, my daily routine doesn't allow for 3 snacks aswell, I mainly calorie count and keep the balance between consumption and calories burned in harmony, try to burn 1000 calories above my intake whatever i eat works for me. As Lacroyx says do what works for you.

Running recovery week again, as i pulled my shoulder and need to recover before month 2. Enjoyed the first months work out and looking forward to bursting through month 2 to see the results

Ive just started the recovery week, (Week 5), im aged 50, and still going strong. Listen whats said on the programme and you cant go wrong, listen to your body and as Shaun T keeps saying check your heart rate and you should be fine once you get over the aches and pains of the first few days... Good luck

50 here, started weight loss and exercise routine after xmas 2012, 3 months in and lost 21lbs, averaging 1 ld a week. No special diet as such, just watching the calorie intake, keeping it about 1800 to 2000 cal before exercise.

Started in January and at first was loosing the usual 2lbs per week, now it seems to be more 1 lb a week, still watching the calories, but am a guy and always find it hard to eat the right stuff, never been good at preparing food for the day :-(. Converted a section of my garage into a gym, so trying to keep to regular…

Hi, been going at this now since January, ever since I modernised a section of my garage and turned it into a gym. Weight was dropping off nicely until last couple of weeks and now seemed to have stalled. my biggest problem is i think i keep letting my body go into starvation mode (too much exercise, not enough calories).…
