Thank you so much for taking the time to reply & for giving such a detailed answer! I will definitely take your suggestions on board 😊

Thank you! Yes, I need to do some light exercise & get out of the house! :smile:

I’m 38 years old. 163cm, 78.8kgs, sedentary. I’ve set my calories at 1700 as I’m breastfeeding. I started mfp about 3 weeks ago & I’ve lost 3.6kgs. I just find gaining weight so easy... a Saturday of relaxing meant I gained over a kilo. It’s probably sodium, but it’s taken me a couple of days to get back on track. I’d like…

Hey, awesome work! We have very similar stats and goals. I too started around 80kgs and I'm hovering around 69-70kgs now. Goal is 63kgs-65kgs. Is it possible to add you as a friend? :smile:

Thanks! :)

Thanks for the info. I'm currently 81.5kgs and would like to lose 15kgs. I've read that mums that exclusively BF should aim for 1500 to 1800 cals per day and that anything lower could affect your supply. I've chosen to eat at the upper limit, partly because I'm ravenous. My diet is terrible full of sugary treats. I know…

Thanks for adding me

Thanks that's so helpful

:bigsmile: bump, this is great! Thank you

Hey i'm doing a bootcamp in Auckand Domain through TrueLife Training. It's awesome, check out their website

I'm in Auckland :smile: Feel free to add me

^^Your pic brings back some memories! I lost a few toenails argh!

I think the camino is what you make of it and it really comes down to what you want to achieve. I somewhat disagree that 99% of the walk is on asphalt. Yes, there are times when you're passing through big cities or surburbia, but the landscape is different depending on the region you're in. I walked over metal paths, over…

I'm not au fait with posting responses, i'm still quite new here...sorry if it's not right! It's very, very safe on the camino. I met lots of women walking solo. People who start the walk alone don't usually continue solo...it's incredibly easy to meet people along the way and walk with them. The people you meet with come…

I started the walk in a small quaint town called St Jean Pied de Port, France and then I walked over the Pyreneese into Roncesvalles, Spain all the way to Santiago de Compestella. The walk took me approximately 5-6 weeks to do and I was walking between 20kms - 30kms per day. The year I did the walk was 2010 - it was a holy…

I did the camino 3 years ago and it was amazing! I absolutley loved it and I hope one day I get to do it again! :)

bump sounds amazing!

Thanks for the responses! It's helped allevitate my concerns :)

Hi, I've just sent a request to join the FB page :) But truth be told I'm more addicted to MFP these days! I'm Becs, I'm 32 years old, living in Auckland and battling the bulge. I'm a real foodie - I love eating and I have a pretty large appetite. MPF has helped me reduce my portion sizes and be accountable for the…

It's awesome to see so many Kiwis on here! I'm new to MFP, been doing it for nearly 2 weeks. I'm finding it addictive logging all my cals for the day. I'm up in Auckland and I'm looking at losing 15kgs (or more) my goal weight at this stage is 65kgs. First goal though is getting down to 75kgs. Feel free to add me! :)
