Well, I went to see a nutritionist at the weekend. I bought 6 sessions for £19 off of a discount website, so I was looking forward to it. I printed out all my data from My Fitness Pal and took it in with me. My nutritionist was called Julie and I was very disappointed. It wasn't a session with a nutritionist; it was a an…

Hmmm deffo challenge finding a HRM that has a chest strap that can reach around my chest... but the other day I saw someone jogging and they had a leg strap instead. Is this normal? If so, where do they sell them? :D Also, the hand ones that look like gloves?

My wife and I support each other through these journeys... She is slim, beautiful and very sexy so she doesn't have much weight to lose - but she is wanting to tone up. Me on the other hand was over twice her weight. Pretty much my whole life I have been conditioned to eat unhealthily - when I lived with my parents, they…

I have lost 4lbs in the last week - simply by going back to 2000 calories a day instead of 1500! I also have paid for 6 sessions with a nutritionist starting this Saturday - so that will be good! :D I now have 14lbs to go until I hit my 1st goal... Here is what I looked like at 298lbs (last Thursday) And this is me at…

Hi Tasha, I am the same as you - one of the reasons I am losing weight is because I was turned away from a ride because they couldn't close the harness. I am a 46" waist and 56-58" chest. I went to Alton Towers last month and most of the main rides have "Big Boy" seats for later people - for example Oblivion. I didnt go on…

Thanks guys. I guess I just feel a little bummed out. So much conflicting information out there. I am a Virgo, so I have to research and research and research everything until I get flustered. I don't know if going on these pre-made diets work - like Diet Chef (one of the banner ads here). I know I dont go over my…

I feel pretty bummed out. I was losing 3-4lbs a week for 6 weeks. I have now just gone through week 7 and lost no weight at all. I have been sticking to my 1500 calorie limit and walked 20 miles in a week - before that, I was walking 11 miles a week. I shouldnt have hit this 'wall' yet - I am 298lbs!

Thanks guys! I know I have been a bit bad in weighing myself every few days instead of once a week, so after today, I am stopping and just weighing myself weekly! However, today I am now 298lbs - 21lbs lost! Looks like I AM on track to hit my 20st goal by end of July! I am currently 21st 4lbs. So I have 5 weeks to lose…

Thanks guys. By strength train, do you mean joining a gym? I tried that several times but being unable to get on the machines, or the pool was full meant I gave up and it became a chore.

Yep - the cod not the girl :P And thanks for the comment :)

Thanks :)

How do the chest straps work? I am a big guy (54" chest) and was wondering if they would fit me

I just had a glass of orange juice and Shreddies with semi-skimmed milk. Nom nom!

If you are in the UK, Tescos sell one for £20 but I have no idea if it is any good.

My initial goal is to get back to how I looked when I was 18. I was about 18 stone there. When I was 16, I was about 16 stone and looked like this: I currently look like this: So for now, my ideal goal is to hit around 18st - then see if I can get it down to 15st - depends on how I look and feel. PS - That is hairotica (my…

Thanks all. Over the Royal Wedding weekend, I put on 3lbs... just weighed myself this morning and i've lost it all and some more! Now I am 21st 10lbs (304lbs). So it IS coming off!!! Fantastic! :) I saw a heart rate monitor watch at Tescos for £20. It also works out calories (fat burned, they call it) - would that be good…

Thanks. Would you say that whenever I do excercise (and the program gives me a rough reading of calories burned), I eat to burn that off? For example, if I was to have a goal consumption of 2000 calories a day, but through excercise, I burn off 500 calories a day, would I then need to raise my goal calorie consumption to…
