Bek from Perth, Australia here!!! I just completed my first Tri a couple of weekends ago and absolutely loved it!!! So definitely many more to come!! I did the Pinkie (Breast Cancer Foundation) Long Course; very scary!! I discovered tha tI can't actually swim... So glad it was in a pool... I could take a break every 50m...…

It is possible!!! I've only had one kid (carried full term) I started my pregnancy at 87kg and finished my pregnancy at over 110kg... I am now down to 59kg and have a six pack to show for it... I will be honest though... I only show off the top half of my stomach as the bottom half is covered in some pretty saggy skin…

Unfortunately you can't pick and choose from which areas you lose fat from... You can target particular areas to build up muscle and strength train, but the fat will come off from wherever your body decides. Just keep up the cardio and it will fall off from your stomach, as well as everywhere else ... Spot fat loss is…

Agreed!!!! 800 is way too low!!! Around 1200 to 1500 you will still lose weight and be eating enough to keep your body nourished.... Don't jeopardise your health for a lower body weight!!!

Losing that last 10lbs is definitely the hardest weight to lose (I know you didn't want to hear that)... I'm on a low calorie and low carb eating plan (I refuse to call it a diet) I try to eat very few processed carbs (bread, rice, pasta) but get most of them from fresh fruit and veg, lentils, legumes and the like... MFP…

I've got it and a few of my friends have it too.... It's seemed to work for them... Not so much for me yet... (hubby works stupid hours (IT nerd)) so it's hard to actually "pin him down" at the right moments... It keeps track of when your period is, and thus can tell you when you're fertile... Just remember that this is an…

Congrat on the quitting smoking... I quit 9 years ago (after numerous attempts!!!) and have never looked back... I've sent you a friend request...

I was thinking the exact smae thing!!!

That's still a fantastic effort... It will come off... sometimes you have slow weeks, sometimes you lose heaps!!! Don't get too discouraged, and stick with it... It will happen... My only piece of advice (from someone who's been there) is to maybe increase your exercise... 120 minutes (2 hours) a week doesn't seem like…
