Hi, Im Jen, team UK!! I live in Scotland and am totally prepared to work my *kitten* off this week! I run daily but I am gonna be doing some HIIT on top of that to up my calorie burn. Desperately hope Im not gonna be letting the side down!! I work in an Army Centre and my boss is big on fitness so I get an hour to exercise…

nope - it might not help that I am on my works pc and its pretty damn old - is it a windows 7 feature cause its not on this XP crap!

yeah sure, sounds like fun, count me in :bigsmile:

*goes to calculator* *hits view* nope - no unit conversion for me!

I lost all my baby weight, then some but I still jiggle, especially in the belly area. Im working on it but I totally get how you feel. All these new stretch marks and the jiggle is not fun and takes away from the great feeling of weight loss. Just keep plugging at it, you will be great

of course! doesnt everyone? :ohwell:

:drinker: Scotland here!

I workout most days and I alternate between running and HIIT. The running gets my stamina up (I tend to run for about 45-60 minutes) and the HITT is to work those muscles that running simply doesnt cover. In an ideal world, I would probably do 1 day of yoga or pilates but I dont know how and I aint doing a class. I think…

its a pretty old video but i never get tired of watching it!!

slow down to where you feel you are going too slow and you will naturally speed up as you go along. Control your breathing by your steps, in...two...three...out...two...three. Thats how i started and it worked a treat!

I get very obsessed with whatever tv show i am watching, like doctor who and firefly and i become obsessed with movies too. However, I always have time to paint my nails!!

I do the insanity workouts and I burn maybe 700 calories in the hour, definitely no more than that. I burned nearly 1000 when I was about 200lbs but now that I am 174, its not as many. I can burn 1000 calories in 90 minutes of running but defo not 60.

lives near me!

My goal has always been to reach 12stone by christmas and that is another 6lbs to go. Anything more than that is a bonus

seeing my body change and the weight go down. Its also turned into a habit for me so I tend not to need motivation, I eat what I eat all the time and the exercise just gets done

what a difference, you look amazing and I love your tattoo!!

I will run up to an hour and a half before I would drink water. I have been on 8 mile runs and not had a drop. I drink when Im done.

ooft where do I start!? My dad called me fat alot to the point where I wasnt allowed a ride on his motorbike for fear I would break it. At school, my whole year bullied me, not physically but mentally, I was called Barnardo because my mum worked at Barnardos, they thought I was an orphan - go figure!! They also called me…

I eat pretty much the same food from week to week. I do this for 2 reasons: a) I dont have alot of money and if I know exactly what I will be eating then i can budget properly b) I like the foods I eat. I consistently lose weight and I enjoy my food. I occasionally try something different but if it aint broke yada yada

Thank you for your replies - I know I should just enjoy it but Ive done so well on my journey so far and want to keep that momentum going. It is just a little pub in my home town. No chain. I had a look at the websites recommended for hints and tips and they were a great help. I will choose what I want before I go and just…

I fit pretty perfectly into the wife and mother!

That is an awesome tip!! Next time Im not in the mood - Underworld is going on!

Im slowly but surely working my way to maintenance, I love food and lots of it, so I do alot of exercise to make up for it! I do a little bit of HIIT training, it would be nice to make a friend who knows a bit more about it. I log everything I eat and am on daily, weekends I tend to get a bit quieter but Im super active…
