I prefer Cycling for that very reason :) Your figures are around where mine are .... I do 290 in 40 mins on the bike indoors, and 340 outdoors on my mountain bike. Running gets me 220 in 30 mins. I just prefer cycling because I can sustain it for longer and can now cycle for a few hours outside and love it! But then I`m…

Thanks for that......it just amazed me that this is the first thing that seems to have me beat. I can throw myself down a mountain on skis in - 20, play a vigorous game of tennis for over an hour, hike 15 miles up and down hills ~ without so much as a glance at my reliever................................. but a little…

Glad I`ve seen this topic as I suffer "brittle" asthma and started running 3 weeks ago. Doing a couple of miles 4 times a week at a slow pace, but it has absolutely been exhausting me and I`ve been blowing like an old train!!! Friday last, I had the mother of all asthma attacks about 20 seconds after completing the run. I…

I haven`t abstained at all and am partial to a red wine or two!. I am doing this for life not to lose weight quickly, so as I don`t want to be tee total for the rest of my life, I don`t want to cut it from my lifestyle now. I guess it depends what you want from life.....a quick diet, then yes quitting drinking helps, or do…

Soooooo with you on the ski boots.......think I have actually groaned out loud at the sheer pleasure of getting those boots off after a long day skiing! On a similar note, I get a physical reaction to just arriving in the mountains when the snow is awesome and the sun is shining. I feel alive like nothing else on earth can…

I think it depends what you are trying to achieve here.....if you are on a "diet" then absolutely include your cheat day so you can see exactly what you are consuming. However, if you are on a long term "lifestyle" plan then just as life, we can`t be perfect all the time, and I wouldn`t worry so much about being strictly…

Natural all day, every day! Some of the ingredients in so called low fat foods scare the hell out of me! Never eat anything you can`t pronounce ~ and have no idea what it is or looks like! I`m a bit obsessed with food labelling and if there is anything on the label, that I can`t visualise, it goes back on the shelf.! My…

I was out for dinner last night and had a beautiful steak with a big rocket and tomato salad. Worked out at about 350 calories. It`s just getting to know what you can have I think, but skipping other meals will just make you eat more when you do go out! It`s sooooooo hard sometimes to get the balance right! Hope you enjoy…
