When I'm having cold, I get very very hungry. Basically will have to find something to eat every hour.

To me peanut butter is just one of the choice of spreads I can have on my bread. Never eat peanut butter on its own. Nutella on the other hand, I don't like it on bread but I obsolutely don't mind scooping them into my mouth.

Weekday after work. I reach the gym at around 6:45pm I hit the gym at 1pm during weekends.

To be able to replace the water cooler in my office on my own.

I used to workout at a gym where the machines gave lower reading than my HRM. I always log the lower reading. This new gym I now go to gave higher readings on the machines so I choose to follow my HRM readings. However, I'm also aware HRM's readings can be off so I log in 80% of what my HRM said.

Okra, mushrooms, watercress soup! Low calories and so yummy.

I had a fall into a drain end of August and suffered a bad bruise at the side of the knee. Thankfully, nothing hits the joint. By Day 2 the bruise had gotten pretty big and unsightly. Since I didn't feel any pain in the joint so I carried on with my upper body workout as usual at the gym. One of the personal trainers saw…

I'm 5 feet 8 Inches and starting weight is 154. When I first started, mentally told myself I want to be 120. Yah, that's at the lowest of the healthy BMI and even underweight. Not really hellbend on reaching that. I mean, I'm still a work in progress after all. Goals will change. After 3 months of counting calories and…

I do cardio (and I sweat a lot). Will wear anything that is dri-fit and shorts only. Only have one season here. I like my T-shirts loose so I go for the men's shirts all the time.

I usually help myself to a hearty McDonald Breakfast on weekends, that's knowing I will be spending my afternoon burning lots of calories at the gym.

Just started in June this year and discovered this site at the same time. After browsing for a month, I finally start an account here. 3 months and 6kg (13 pounds) lost. Mostly water weight I guess but it put me closer to my ideal BMI.

My rest days are on Monday and Friday. Monday I just go home after work, watch TV and spent time with the tablet. On Friday I will take an hour or so hanging out at the mall, go home and more TV. Just got Diablo 3 on PS3 a couple of days ago. I guess I can spent my rest days farming loots now.

1.) Cut down on computer gaming significantly since I hit the gym on most weekdays after work and whole weekends afternoon. 2.) Monthly fees for gym usage. Additional monthly expenses. 3.) My brother decided to sign up for gym after seeing me working out for 3 months. He’s going to make sure I do my strength trainings and…

Ohhhh!! Thanks for sharing this info! :flowerforyou:

Personally, I burned around 300Kcal (with HRM) for 30min. I'm not an exercise guru but here's what I think. Resistance increased but if you are not stepping fast, you are not increasing your heart rate and thus, the calories burn is not going to significantly increase. Threadmill is different as you really have to move at…

Some of the songs in my gym playlist with nice beat and speed for me to cardio along. Civilization - Justice (Adidas Song) A Higher State of Consciousness - ??? Aerodynamic - Daft Punk Hit That - The Offspring The Bongo Song - Safri Duo Le Voie Le Soleil - ??? Suburban Train - DJ Tiesto Ready Steady Go - Paul Oakenfold…

I was told I will be skinny fat even when I get to my ideal weight and I later realise it's not my weight that's bothering me. It's how I look in front of the mirror. I'm 4 weeks into strength training (will move to lifting when I feel stronger).

I switched to Dove Roll-on deodorant as the spray type don't work for me at all. Working pretty well.

Air fried chicken nuggets :heart:

It's really not so much on how much I want to weigh but how much body fat and muscle mass I want to have. I'm in the healthy BMI but I love to get it lower by reducing my body fat weight. I still want to build muscles at the same time so weight training I must do. I suppose I won't see a huge weight loss but I will like…

One day, I decided to get the Polar FT7 after work after reading some user feedbacks on this very same website. Not cheap since I actually got from a retail store instead of online but I still think this is one of my best impulse purchases. Generally, most would say the gym equipment gave much higher caloric readings and…

I have a co-worker from a different department noticed my weight loss. It was major cos she didn't know I was actively exercising to achieve this. I lost about 5kg. My family and co-workers from the same department all know I visit the gym regularly. They see me daily so the change is hardly noticeable to them I think.lol

None, but I want cookies and cream ice cream now. D:

Personally, I don't prepare my own food. I eat outside food with all those flavorsome grease but in moderation. Adding exercises to my weight loss adventure is helping to balance things out. I have steadily lose weight and see great improvement to my overall fitness condition. Of course, I think I will see faster result if…

From the people experience, actually non existing. Asian in an Asian country. My height is above average and most girls are actually quite petite to began with. They won't be envy of me, but they might like to have my height instead. lol I do feel comfortable wearing back some of my old clothings. They fit comfortably now.…

I choose Elliptical simply because I can switch to tread backwards and the machine still tracks my progress. Also, I can workout on Elliptical with closed eyes. With Treadmill, all eyes forward.

I have wore HRM and walked for an hour non stop and it shows around 180-220 Kcal burnt. I think the calories burned by OP looks accurate. It should be login but maybe 80% of what MFP showed.

New clothes for sure! XD Oh I also love to get a new pair of sport shoes and new gym bag.

Mostly it's the sodium content in diet that is causing water retention. Being a female, it's useful to know that time of the month will also cause weight gain despite all those workouts. I have noticed myself gained around 1 to 2kg one week before menses starts. By the time it started, I am 4kg heavier. Now close to Day 3,…

Belt tighten by a notch and that notch has never been used until today. :)
