One of the best pieces of advice I received about running is that "if you feel you're going slow, then you're still going to fast". There are no prizes by starting fast, other than shin splints, ITB issues and other leg problems. Start slow. If you cannot maintain a conversation whilst running, you're still going to fast.…

Muesli makes me sad. How can 60g of health be 250+ calories? WWWWWHHHHHHYYYYYY!?!?

THIS! I had sushi for lunch and I had a mild heart attack when I logged it. It was fresh tuna and tofu! No tempura prawns in sight! So unfair.....

Excellent plan! Like you, I have previously lost close to 100lb in the past, and I am doing it again (after two kids and life throwing me curve balls!). You can lose the weight again, you have the experience. At my heaviest, my periods disappeared. As I was losing the weight, my periods came back and are regular as…

@Bunny81s you look amazing!!!!! Thank you for sharing your pic - it's giving me hope and motivation. Like you, the abdominal fat is very stubborn, but I am determined!

"I can. I will. End of story."

I have tried morning, lunch and evenings, and I perform the best in the evenings.

@purebells - Weighted squats, Sumo squats, hip/glute bridges, lunges (bodyweight and weighted - walking, reverse and "normal"), stepups, machine/cable/resistance band hip adductors and abductors. Congrats to all of you brides-to-be...I've been married to my soulmate for 6 years this June. Just remember to enjoy yourselves…

I do boxercise every week...

+1 on the Scosche Rythym+. I use it when doing my gym workouts and I connect it with with SportsTracker or MapMyFitness. Cannot speak more highly of this HR monitor

Feel free to add me too! 34 year old mum of two boys (4 and 2.5), working full time. I want my pre-pregnancy body back! I have about 100lb (45kg) to lose, and I have lost 33lb (15kg) already. It's tough, especially with two little ones, but I am determined to do this!

That is the best feeling of all - having your hubby check you out like that :smiley: My NSV - benching 40kg!

I am a working mum with two kids - 4 and 2.5 years old. This is my second attempt at getting back to my pre-pregnancy state. I'm 33lb (15kg) into my journey. I pre-log both my food (I usually make my breakfast and lunch the night before work) and exercise (will change the no. of cals burnt after my workout), own TWO…

I'm 33lb into my almost 100lb weight loss. I'll add you as a friend :smile: )

CONGRATULATIONS! You are an inspiration! Just a quick question @pinklotus_56, what is your height?

Wow! Your transformation is going great! Keep up the great work!

I'm on here all the time. Feel free to add me!

Cardio first. If I do it last, my form is all out

Sarcasm is food of life... I will add you as a friend!

Add me if you like! Motivation and support is sooo important and I welcome anyone wanting to be my friend :)

I have logged for the past 101 days! I am so proud of myself! Also, I am squatting using a 25kg barbell, benching at 35kg, shoulder pressing using 17.5kg barbell and I'm up to 1.6km of running! 101 days ago, I could barley run 800m, benching at 15kg, shoulder pressing using 5kg dumbbells, and I was squatting with a 10kg…

Hahahaha! I love that!

Well done! I am hanging for the day to see my pre-pregnancy weight on tge scales. My youngest is just over two, so it's long overdue for me to lose the weight. Again, well done!

Yep. Fluid retention. I feel like an elephant when running on the treadmill.

I have had some really awesomely stupid advice over the years: - You shouldn't eat after 6pm. That's why you're overweight. - Weight lifting will make you look like a man! And you will be bigger and look unattractive. - You should give up the gym. Your PT is lying about your weight loss. You only need 20 mins of walking…

Firstly, DO NOT blame yourself. This creep had no right to harrass and assault you! Secondly, as everyone has said - report him to the police and to Safeway as soon as you can. This creep needs to be stopped. Self-defence/kick boxing classes are imperative. My old PT used to advise all women at his gym to take his…

Best advice ever!

Ohhhhh...hopefully your daughter is better. You did well going to the gym - all nighters with sick kids wipes you out the next day!

Absolutely smashed it at boxing tonight. I gave it my all. So proud of me :)

I'm below 100kg!!!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAAY!!!
