This month I tore the ligaments in my ankle due to an unexpected injury while out of town. Its been really hard to rest it to be honest, I'm dying to go back to aerobic activity. I have been swimming and walking where ever my ankle will allow it and anywhere else, I have been resting it. Some days are better than others. I…

Your likely right on the cardio because I'm only using the search engine, I'm not totally sure burned cals are correct but I'm sure it will get better as I take in all this info :D Sweet, now that I'm home I'm going to try relaxing but will swim at the moment just to keep some type of momentum...I will walk as I can. I…

Ok I feel a bit thick when it comes to calculations. And admittedly I'm feeling a little stressed after trying to work out what I have taken in last time. The sanity check: I have already set up my database so that it calculates each months Cal intake and Cal Burn. For Jan: Cal Intake Aim was: 51150 Cal Burn Aim was: 15750…

Oh man just reading my messages tells me I must have been tired haha. Thanks for all this info, I can be pretty stubborn, or determined, depends on how you see it, so I'm pretty sure no one could make me do anything I didn't want to do :) Went for my first walk for this week yesterday after my injury, only 30mins and very…

So am I ...keen to friend :)

If you don't mind mushroom flavourings....Low in cals and price but high in flavour... Probably have to go to an asian store to buy whats called Mushroom sauce or Vegetarian Stir Fry sauce (apparently its like oyster sauce but I think its nicer), a good sesame oil (not toasted) Lee Kum Kee is pretty good and also if you…

Thanks for that info, hopefully my stats are correct! I will read up on all the Strength Training info as soon as I can clear some of my work load argh...I don't feel like budgeting lol

So I was up till 6am devising an evil plan to take over my world. These are my thoughts am I close to right? Food intake: 1400cals req To burn 2.5lbs: 250cals req Per week: 11,550 in order to live and loose weight well. I would like attempt this month to burn 3460cals p/w (3457cals to be precise). I'm hoping this will give…

Hi BB I'm still up and I'm wondering if the carbs are keeping me up the last three nights lol 4am is becoming typical. Wishful thinking I guess. I am actually setting up spreadsheets of information for my self right now. 1400 cals sounds like a good start and I am very happy with the idea of loosing 51lbs in 6 months, and…

age = 36 height = 5ft 10" / 178cm weight = 272.3lbs how much you want to lose = As much as it takes to make me look and feel awesome! MFP are suggesting 154.3lbs daily (non exercise) activity level = Sedentary until this week I have been sitting on a sofa working on a laptop for at least 3 years I have to arrange my day to…

All of this info has already been hugely helpful. So much info I have been given has been wrong or confusing in the past. I look forward to being dialed in. Excited now! :happy:

Agreed!!!

Nice, I'm essentially eating more greens now than I ever ate my whole life. So I'm shocked at my own will power :)

:smile: Where's the damn 'like' button when you need it lol

:wink: It's not so bad

Hey, I'm only new to MFP really but I read through and felt the need to respond. I would have seriously had my doubts myself if I had not chosen to focus on a plan to eat for Blood type myself. I didn't do this to specifically loose weight. My partner has gained 2 Kidney transplants in his life and may not get a third. We…

Sorry guys I'm trying to reply to your posts but not so sure it's coming up correctly because my posts aren't sitting with your comments. No matter, what I wanted to say, is I am overwhelmed and so thankful right now. :D Just knowing people are here to support so fast is just mind boggling. Pity MFP don't have a like…

Thanks Nancy, really nice to meet you. Wish they had a "LIKE" button on posts lol would make life simple :D

bahaha, thats awesome, I only worked it out on google calc and copied and pasted lol (used to working in kg's over here)....nice to meet you :D

Hi all, I could really use some friends, I have none lol. My goal is to loose 53.5lbs. I started properly for what feels like the millionth time...tonight. :D...My brain is telling me I'm starving...good times, goodluck to everyone, it's a long hard road x
