I have had fit bits for a few years now and currently have the Charge 3 but not tested it out for swimming yet. Feel free to add me.

Feel free to add me. Not done MFP for 3 years and have put on all the weight I lost so back to needing to lose at least 2 stone. Use a fit bit so hopefully back on it. Not really feeling it yet though.

A very rainy Derby.

I thought that too! I would have had him up on a charge for bringing the Army into disrepute.Always assume they are walts:smile:

I do hope that someone can advise you but I am the same and hardly like anything healthy. I won't/can't force myself to like stuff so I eat what I always have but just cut the chocolate out and smaller portions plus exercise and have still lost just over a stone in 9 weeks so am happy to stick to my diet,whatever works for…
-
No hope for me then.Hardly anything healthy passes my lips,so I rely on exercise and smaller portions and thankfully it seems to be working.
-
I never said it was 100% accurate,did I now?I was agreeing with the poster that wrote it was just that way for her,likewise it is just that way for me! I would start the ap on my phone and it would give me 500 calories burnt in an hour,then it would upload on MFP and be maybe another 200 added on to it.Nice figures but I…
-
Agreed!I would rather take the lower one than kid myself that I am burning more than I actually am.
-
I was using this app too and it really does overestimate.I walk for maybe 1 hour and 30 mins on the cross trainer and it was giving me on average 800-900 calories burnt.I bought a HRM,the polar4 and the same workout using that is saying about 520 so quite a difference really. Just to add the walk is 5 miles normally.
-
It's okay,I will have it for you.:smile:
-
That is measuring everything and believe me that is a small portion.:smile: You are right though I can see just where they are coming from and if I swap the lamb for chicken it does lower it and I really don't need the pigs in blankets but I love them.My main problem was the mash and lamb. I can still get under my calories…
-
I am normally under most days but I do find it hard to stick to it but have decided not to beat myself up just because I have a chocolate bar a couple of days a week. It was because I didn't lose any weight last week nor this week by the looks of it and just thought even after all this I still haven't lost any.It made me…

I quoted that sooo wrong!:smile:

ore than I was giving myself credit for. I started out slow....found exercises to help strengthen and loosen the joints. As they improved...I upped the intensity. There are still things that I can't do...such as lunges...but I can do full squats now using 2 8lb dumbbells. I no longer use my knees as an excuse to not…
-
I do eat veg but I think it is what I put with it because my favourite food is a roast dinner and it is always a 1000 calories but I tell myself it is twice a week. I do still have my favourite foods just less of them and try to limit chocolate to the weekend.

Ouch to your knee problems. I have osteoarthritis in both knees and a micro fracture was tried but failed.Since I have been walking I am down to 2 tramadol a day just before bed but am at a loss at other things I can try.My sons are buying me a cross trainer and I always thought I couldn't use one but apparently it is okay…
-
Thanks for the replies. I guess I am just feeling sorry for myself.I really thought I had reached a stage in my life where I wanted back in size 10 jeans and to suddenly have a wobble because I didn't lose any weight last week made me want to give up and think sod it I will have a chocolate bar then. I have a very limited…

I have osteoarthritis in both knees and was in constant pain until I started walking 3 weeks ago. I was advised by my doctor that walking,swimming and cycling were okay. I still get pain but only take meds now before bed so the walking maybe 45 minutes to an hour most days as worked for me.
