Yurbuds - these are amazing. They never fall out, even if you get sweaty.

It's great fun! I'm afraid I really don't have any tips as I'm no expert, but I've found if you try and vary the direction you throw it around you, and use a weighted one it's more challenging. If you have one you can add/take out sections, adding more in is going to make it trickier too.

No. But realising that I can achieve something that previously felt so completely out of my control and reach has made me completely re-evaluate and acknowledge the fact that I am stronger than I thought, and capable of so much more than I realised. THAT makes me happy.

So inspiring - It sounds like you gave it absolutely everything! And enjoyed it too!! Tough mudder is an unspoken target of mine, but you've just prompted me to put it on my list now, thank you! I'm not sure I'll be ready for the UK ones this August, but...!

I'm from Yorkshire - Anyone feel free to add! I'mma add a few of you :)

You've done a fantastic job!! Well done! Your story is really inspiring to me, so thank you for posting. I'm in a very similar situation- Starting at 182, having gained weight throughout school & college. Your success is brilliant, I hope I'll be in the same position soon!!

I also want to know this!! :blushing:

I'd love to have some more friends who will push me to keep going - encouraging me AND telling me off if I log too much chocolate! Anyone feel free to add me. I try to log in every day, but I am only human, and sometimes life gets in the way!

I haven't come across gym snobbery before, hehe. I chose mine because it's in the next building from my flat, thus basically free. It's not the nicest place, and doesn't have the most equipment, but it does the job. There are classes, and all the equipment I want to use. If I was really in the market to be choosy, it would…

I leave for work at 7.30am, and get back home at 6.30pm. I have a 20 minute walk each way, and about 3 days a week after work I go to the gym before I have my dinner. I work out about 45 minutes cardio each time and 15 minutes weights once a week. On Fridays I do my weekly shop, and more often than not will go by the pool…

milk (just straight) and oysters

Welcome back! I'd love some more friends to help keep me motivated and give me a kind push in the right direction when needed!! Feel free to add me if that's you!!

I'm 5'4" and my current goal is 145... At the moment I really just want to reach a healthy BMI. I'm 23. I think once I get there I'll re-*kitten*, but I'd be happy with around 130-135 I think. Feel free to add me, would be good to be friends with people with similar goals!

Not really advice for getting started the first time - but once you've done it you'll feel great knowing that you're on your way to/at work with most people around you having just rolled out of bed... Knowing that you've been for a run and had a nice hot shower seems so much better when you've got the rest of the day ahead…

Hey! I'm 23, graduated a year ago... Trying to work off the last year of sitting at work all day, and the rest... Feel free to add me, all of you! :)

Feel free to add me - anyone! I'm only human, I work, I like food, I try my best...

I'm 5'4" and currently at 169. I started at about 182 back in June/July. Initially I was swimming twice a week and walking a bit every day. Now I'm in the gym usually 4 times a week, and swimming (further & faster) once a week. I have my calorie intake on here set to -1lb per week, but I don't think I average that really.…

I'm 23 - feel free to add me, it'd be good to have some more friends!!

Also looking out for some supportive, motivational and friendly people! I log in pretty much every day, hopefully we can all help eachother out!? :)

Hello! Looking for some friends to help push (or shove) me in the right direction! Hopefully I can help do the same for you too! Feel free to add :)

I'm 23 with nearly 40 to loose - ten down now, I just need some motivation to push for the rest! I'm hoping I can help some people and get some support in return!? Add me if you're hoping to do the same!
