Is it too late to join?

Thanks a million! I think I might do some more reading and certainly look at changing things around a bit. I love body pump for the music and energy, but maybe it's time to update the ipod and do my own thing in the scary part of the gym ;)

OMG this is the thread that I've been searching for since feeling like I've been getting NOWHERE with this whole weight loss thing. Thanks so much for sharing all this info, will have to re-read and re-read again to absorb it all before I can start to put some tips to use. I currently do 3 hour spin classes and 2 body pump…

OMG!!! You're looking incredible! Ok, you've motivated me to get back on track!

Ewh! Half that stuff shouldn't even be CALLED food!

If you're a member of a gym and they have classes then you should try the spin/RPM class. I'm totally addicted to them! Classes can run from 30-60 mins and you'll get a really good mix of hill climbs, sprints and resistance style training. High energy class so you're not bored at all. The great thing is you don't have to…

I'd have to say I've got my eyes on some sexy underwear for when I reach my goals! :)

I'm in on this one! Will weight myself at the gym today and add it to the challenge so I'm accountable to SOMEONE! :)

If I can get more calories on the weekends and make up for it on a week day then I reckon I'd be sorted!!! Weekends are my killer :)

I'd be getting the smallest steak! I tend to then top heaps of black pepper on my chips so I don't get tempted to pick at them :)

From what I understand you still maintain a calorie deficit but it's spread out over the week, so some days you'd eat more than others and vice versa..... Look something like this Monday: 1998 Tuesday: 1599 Wednesday: 2398 Thursday: 1998 Friday: 1799 Saturday: 2198 Sunday: 1998 If it stops the slumps in weight loss then…

I found a site that suggests you burn between 250-600 depending on effort (for a 1 hour class). I've never been too sure either though, might need to invest in a heart rate monitor!

You're looking great! You certainly look younger too.

most people squirm when I tell them what I have after the gym, but it works wonders for me and actually tastes great. Mix below in a blender; glass of low fat milk raw egg vanilla essence cinnamon

I have a sweet tooth too! Not sure that'll ever change. I do however keep a toothbrush and toothpaste in my desk draw and when I feel like snacking I quickly go clean my teeth. Chocolate never tastes as good afterwards! By the time the minty taste has subsided enough to taste chocolate the urge has generally gone.
-
I used to get these headaches too. I did some research and found out that it's either low blood sugar or when your heart rate increases too quickly. I now have a small amount of carbs about an hour before the gym and make sure I do a proper warm up too. After the gym I make sure I've had some more carbs and protein within…

OMG I feel your pain! By Friday I'm starting to feel skinnier and healthier and then before you know it I'm laying on the sofa watching a movie with a piece of pizza in my hand! I wish there was a way of hanging out with the boyfriend on weekends WITHOUT eating the same amount of food as him.

went a little crazy over Easter, so even further behind than I should be. Still .... Count me in!
