Amazing video!! Just shows how far we can come if we put our minds to it. I WILL be doing my run today :bigsmile: Was going to have a day off but after seeing that I will be out in the cold and the mud - running!! I'm on week 8 of the C25K and I :heart: it!! It's such a amazing plan. Thanks for sharing :smile:

You could switch to porridge while it's colder? This will have less sugar and it's just as filling :o) And your keeping your healthy oats!! I also found this: Muesli Nestle Serving Size: 1 portion, Calories: 168, Fat: 4g, Carbs: 25.3g, Protein: 7.6g It's listed in MFP database xx

Great work, you look like a new person :o) ... and great tips for us all to follow, your living proof that all this stuff we're all doing works!! Congratulations on your success so far and keep up the great work xxx

Hello all :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: Just wanted to drop a quick update, and see if anyone else has noticed this too? I got up at 7am and ran first thing this morning, have a busy day as it's my son's 6th birthday today!! 2 parties and basically no free time all day so got up early to get this run…

''Wow you are ambitious! I finished W1D2 even tho I didn't want too and boy I felt better after I made myself to do it. Honestly doing the workout was less trouble than giving you guys some lame excuse why I didn't do it when you all could! Keepup the good work everyone! just over eight weeks to go! LOL that doesn;t make…

Hi Gaby, Great to hear your going to start the C25K too!! Wooo hoooo!!! xxxx I've done W2 D1 today, although I've only just finished W1 D3 yesterday!!

Well done!! Sounds like your surprised at yourself!! I think this is a very well worked out plan, I love the app, I think that makes it so easy to follow!! :o)

Hello all!! I did W1D2 today. I enjoyed it, I wish I had more time as I felt I would have liked to do more but have such a busy day today couldn't spare the extra time. So far so good with this program, I'm enjoying it. Seems to be very well worked out and the app is very helpful, I'm going to do day 3 tomorrow and…

Hi All I've just started the C25K plan today too!! I found I did very well with Day 1 Week 1, I felt good!! Although I know it will get much harder as I go further into it. I'm hoping to find some new MFP buddies who are also doing the C25K plan to help keep each other motivated and compare our experiences. Please add me…

Hello Christmas Challengers!!! I've been away on holiday so have missed one weeks challenge and the end of the week before, I did manage to complete the sit up challenge. But unable to weigh in while away as there we're no scales in the hotel, or 'fitness room' either. I have not weighed in yet as I'm a little worried…

BABE XXXXX Don't feel bad xxxx There's so much work involved there I'm not surprised you don't have time.

Tonight I had a really yummy dinner, very low carb... Romaine lettuce chopped with grated cheese, chopped onions and caesar sauce over top, then cooked chicken breast chunks in little bit of butter, seasoned with white pepper and salt, last 5 minutes of the cooking I added some cut pepperoni slices to the pan and cooked…

I'm ready to start tomorrow!! I've given up chocolate about 3 weeks ago with my detox and then atkins, which I'm on for the rest of the week. BUT I've been eating diabetic chocolate as this is super low carbs!! A little treat/cheat I've been rather indulging in!! So Wednesday to Wednesday... No Diabetic chocolate either!!!…

Count me in ladies xxx :happy: I have been dared to wear a short skirt at work for New Years Eve, by my friend and work mate. ( a DJ) I work in a nightclub doing lighting and NEVER wear skirts!!! He has also dared me to wear heels and be girly for the night, We're working together for NYE!!! I've said I'll do it but he has…

Hey!! Well done on your weight loss so far, sounds like you have done very well. Keep at it, exercise is key but the intake will make a huge difference. Last few pounds are really hard to get off and keep off, I'm struggling with maintenance as we speak, very difficult. Good luck with your goals :o)

Hi :bigsmile: I'm sure your going to find this place really useful, I :heart: MFP!!! Great to have like minded people when your trying to achieve your goals. All the best to you :flowerforyou:

For me the easiest way to up my protein and lower my carbs is to swap a meal or two for a home made protein shake. I love them, I also only use soya milk in them (and on my cereal), has less carbs and sugar and more protein than regular milk. I then just try to eat carbs with protein as much as I can, so I try to avoid…

What about home made protein shakes and smoothies? These are really healthy and satisfying. I find I don't want anything else if I have one at lunch time!! :o)

My son Looooves carrots and broccoli !!! Petite pois and baby corn too!! He has new potatoes as they are pretty healthy boiled, and he loves rice too :o)

You CAN do this. :o)

Oh wow these sound great for atkins!!!!!! I'm planning on doing my detox next week then going into atkins for a few weeks just as a shake up, give my body a bit of a surprise!!!! Thanks for sharing hun xxxxxx

Thank you so much darlin xxxxxx Was feeling pretty crap today after dentist appointment and unable to eat this afternoon, shakey from all the injections :o( You've soooooo cheered me up!!! Thanks you sooooo much :heart: And to Claire and Lee, thank you so much, it's so…

Great work... you look truly amazing!!! Well done :flowerforyou:

OK!!! Cookie Jar now has ''warning'' label and I'm moving it to a cupboard where my son can reach without asking me to get them!! I've also told him to tell me off if I want to eat one of ''his'' biscuits!! And that I am not allowed to eat these at all!! I'm hoping that by me calling these biscuits JACK'S I will feel bad…
