Perth woohoo!!! NOR for me near Joondalup :) add me if you like, I love to help motivate!

I've also wasted my money buying countless cheaper HRMs :( Loving my Polar FT4 and was $80 delivered from ebay (australia) Wish i hadn't wasted my money on the prior ones and just bought the Polar!

I did move far far away... from UK to Australia and i love it, wouldn't change a thing :)

Gangnam Style!? Yes! haha

Have you heard of Beachbody's Insanity workout? that is basically HIIT but they call it Max Interval Training... has done wonders for many people, i LOVE it :) definately gets results and my cardio has improved 10 fold

Awesome!! i have also lost the microwave.... NEXT To lose a human leg! ;P

I started running last year, i'm now looking at doing a half marathon next year - i love it! if you have a smart phone (iphone etc) try the Runkeeper app i swear by it! you can use coaching to build it up in a similar way to C25K (though i find that program a bit slow) building it up gradually you will eventually close the…

Another Perth-y here! :D there are a lot of us! Its nice to actually be on the same time zone as people! ;)

wow you rock thats awesome! Good on you for giving it a go and sticking with it, the results are amazing :) i think i have sworn at shaun t too many times to count, its extremely hard but sooo worth it

Hey Kari! WELCOME! this site is addictive! ;P I have completed Insanity which got me looking great for my wedding - now that i'm back and married i'm doing it again (harder better faster stronger!!) I started running before i did Insanity and hadn't gone for a run in ages... went for a 5km run last week and could feel my…

I'm a Perth-y! :)

Khara2012 - Artistic ;P

Great work Chuck you have done AWESOMELY AMAZING dude :) Congrats on your 1 year birthday! 365 days without fail... Legend :)

My migraines are generally hormone related! or sometimes just for no reason at all! hope the headaches go away! i was the same last week, had a migraine then a lingering headache for about 3 days! i found a big workout did eventually help me with my head - i'm guessing the extra blood flow/stress relief etc :)

Really only your doctor or chiro can give you advice on this one instead of MFP forums

Oh i completely hear you on this one! My man is FIFO 4 and 1... so i'm great for a month and then have a week of crap and no workouts :( as yet i haven't come to a conclusion as to how i can get around this! haha BUT i did try to think to myself... its only a week, i didn't lose the weight in a week and i wont gain it in a…

agreed! probably tone it down, and just say it in a suttle way... or she may be taking 10 steps back and changing her number! :S

(i would recommend australia seeing as i live here and its freaking awesome! haha but it is expensive!!)

Koh Samui, Thailand :) http://www.tripadvisor.com.au/Tourism-g293918-Koh_Samui_Surat_Thani_Province-Vacations.html I guess it depends on your budget though and where you are in the world!

i should have at least got a pic with my face facing the same way! doh!

This is my first time posting a pic so i hope this works! eekkk First photo from the start of my original weightloss journey (before MFP!)

I keep seeing "results pics" on facebook and i'm like how did you change that much in a week etc! would be interested to see what it is and if its sustainable as it seems a bit dramatic (so probably not!!) but yes... she does look hot :)

I'm doing Insanity at the moment - its more cardio than P90X I'm on my second month and have had amazing results already, plan is to do Asylum after this (i've heard its hard in a different way!)

Oh dear Oh dear!

its not abnormal to be "out of breath" but you can't just stop when you're breathing gets heavy Are you trying to run? Try the couch 2 5K program (you might see a lot of people talking about c25k) :) its great at helping you increase that fitness, i went from never running in my LIFE to doing a 5km fun run in about…

In australia we have some amazing Nestle desserts - Nestle Soleil i think its spelt chocolate mousse, creme caramel and lemon cheesecake are all around about 80 calories per tub. and about 110 for a dark chocolate dessert they are so yummy its hard to believe there are so little cals... hope you can get them where you are!…

Could you possibly be having withdrawal symptoms? They do say the addiction to junk food is similar to nicotine and heroin it changes your hormone balances - and i know when my hormones are off i get breakouts/feel yucky etc

What are your total calories at? maybe you need to adjust them to suit your body - if you're full don't force yourself! :)

At work i literally live off: Canned tuna on crackers - usually Ryvitas with cottage cheese and baby spinach leaves sometimes i just have the cottage cheese ontop without the tuna or vice versa, or canned chicken (sounds gross but if you get 100% chicken breast shredded its surprisingly nice!) also laughing cow cheese…

Brooke you are FREAKIN AWESOME WOMAN!! :) Great work in a year!! Life changing You are a great motivator to your friends on MFP too, love it!
