  • Hey so its Saturday! I have had a terrible week food wise, really fallen on the wagon big time. I am so so sorry to team UK but I could not face weigh in this morning. I KNOW I will have gained (even if it's jsut water weight) and seeing that gain will be really upsetting to me and very demotivating maybe causing me to…
  • Just to confirm - i can count any distance that i run or walk on the treadmill and any distance i do on the elliptical? my machines work in kms but at the end of the week i will convert it to miles :) xxx
  • CW: 129 SGW: 128 i posted on the other thread that i was shooting for 127 but i've had a pretty bad weekend so decided to modify my goal.. hope thats ok! also its my birthday on wednesday and i want cake! lol xxx
  • sorry i posted my weight on the wrong thread lol i posted it on the team uk thread! i hope i'm not too late! my goal was 130 and i weighed in at 129 :) lost 2lbs, very happy i think i had 1 serving of chocolate - i had cocopops cereal? wwellll done guys!
  • well done guys!! :)
  • Well done morty! Therr is a thread to post our losses on but it has got a bit confused so I'm just posting mine here for now until later today maybe. I lost 2lbs this week, my goal was 130 and today I weighed 129. I had one serving of cocopops mega munchers cereal, do these count in the choc challenge? Can't wait to hear…
  • Morty LOL!! well done for getting in that extra run though! Boooie - i usually eat back most of my exercise calories. 1200 is really the bare minimum that a female should be eating when sedentary (sitting down all day inactive). if you burn an extra 500 (as an example) and still only eat 1200, your body only has 700…
  • Are you from the UK? These are all UK suggestions ... Alpen Light bars are less than 70 calories each and there is Chocolate & Orange flavour or Chocolate & Fudge. Options Hot Chocolate is less than 40 calories per mug and soooo chocolatey! Cocoa Pops Mega Munchers cereal is about 120 calories for a 30g serving (which is…
  • i` don't normally eat chocolate but since I'm not allowed it this week, i've been craving it all the time! proves you always want what you cant have. i've just had some nice porridge and banana and i'll be off to the gym shortly, feeling good today. stacebob - definitely tell the wedding dress fitters you are losing weight…
  • Hey everyone! Sounds like you are all doing really well :) keep it up!! Stacebob - in regards to TOM, i think most of us who are doing this challenge are female so we're all going to have to go through that at least once in the challenge, dont worry about it :) i usually find that the weight i would have lost that week…
  • A lot of places now have the calorie content on their websites (it can be very well hidden but it's there somewhere!) e.g. nandos, pizza express.. bigger chains like that usually do. if i go somewhere and they dont have info on their website i just try and order things that i can easily estimate the calorie count, like…
  • Woop! Gona post this here and message it to my captain too. Currently weigh 131 and my goal for Saturday coming is 130! Should be able to do that! As for chocolate I usually have a hot chocolate every day so it will be a good challenge to break that habit this week... I also eat "cocoa brownie" flavour trek bars…
  • im so excited! go team uk! ha xx
  • Really interested in this breathing on the left foot thing.. What do you mean? When I run, the pace my feet move at is much faster than my pace of breathing... so do you just mean BEGIN exhaling when my left foot hits the ground? or should I be breathing really really fast so it goes right, inhale, left, exhale...?
  • Is my food diary public? (Sorry I'm new so not sure how to work it out!) But you can see what I am eating on there if nutrition could be a problem. I always warm up, I do stretches and walk for 5 mins before running. I will definitely try leaving a longer gap after eating though, and also change my breathing. Does anyone…
  • I'm a vegetarian so don't eat meat anyway.. Umm I usually have a bowl of porridge and a banana about 1.5 hours before i exercise, do you think that i should leave it longer after I eat? or maybe just have the banana? I don;t think i'm dehydrated, I drink a lot of water before and during exercising.. The breathing…
  • i'm new to MFP and can't think of any better way to start off than with a 7 week challenge! gona set my goal at 7lbs by april 15th, anything more would be faaantastic! :) xx
