So exciting to see the group grow to this point!! I don't have anything to add to the suggestions, some brilliant ideas there!! Now off to check out the test forum :bigsmile:

That is amazing!! ocngratulations and keep up your brilliant work!! :flowerforyou:

will the dogs be in their crates watching you work out? Or running around being helpful :bigsmile: When i do Burpees my male Rottweiler goes into a play bow as i go down on my hands :laugh: WHen i do ab work he thinks its a good idea to put his big boof head on my tummy, to help me work harder :huh: :laugh: The female…

I have emailed the organiser of a HM in august. Its an off road track around a resevoir. I asked if the track is very hilly and what sort of times the slowest runners tend to do it in, I don't want to still be finishing once they have packed up and gone home! :blushing: I did 21km on friday, but my GPS cut out and started…

haven't read the Last 5kg but i did do her 12wbt last year. The idea is 1200cals for women and workout 6 days a week. 5 days a week burn 500cals or average 1 hour 1 day a week burn 1000 cals or average 2hours. From memory the last 5kg got a mention in the forum by some doing it, and the whole concept is pretty much the…

Mike you mean the other way around right?? Below TDEE but above BMR :wink:

Sorry to hear about your daughter :( I hope she is here for longer than you anticipate and remains pain free and you all share lots of happiness and love together :) Good on you for realising you need balance and some YOU time. You are right your time with your family will be more filled with quality if you are getting…

momofmy5kids which scooby calculator were you using prior to your BMF? Chappara totally get your uncertainty on the BMR, TDEE numbers, good luck in staying on track with good food :)

sorry kiwimum i meant which body fat calculator do you use as in scales? measurements? If you go by measurements which one? Military or something different?

Hey which body fat calculator do you use?

I have nothing to say that hasn't been said, other than this is not my first thank you to Kiki and Lucia, i know it won't be the last time i thank you both!! You both seriously rock and have the patience of a saint!! Hey are you ladies nutritionists or personal trainers or something? Because honestly if you are not, then i…

awesome guys!! Congratulations and thank you for all your hard work and dedication!! :flowerforyou:

wow thanks for sharing that update! Totally agree on the body fat % being more important!! That is a really fantastic change in a short time too!!

awesome!! thanks for the feedback!! I look forward to further updates! :)

So FiveohMike, It's been almost a week since you got your BMF :bigsmile: How has your TDEE compared to the online calculators? How are you finding it in general? Any updates at all appreciated :) cheers, From the Master Procrastinator :laugh: Allic1971 don't no making fun of me :tongue: :wink:

So i read a few reviews of the BMF Link having issues of some sort, that didn't really make sense to me, and i am not sure if they are earlier model issues? Apparently these issues are not the case with the regular version?? Sorry i know that is really vague! :blushing: So basically those with the normal one not the LINK…

I am still doing my head in wanting one and not quite being able to afford one, and wondering do i really need one :laugh: I dont' know if i am overly obsessing with the whole calorie thing :) Can someone tell me what you do about the sleep thing? Like it tells you how long you slept, quality etc... But what do you DO…

mine's open :) Good luck with your journey and good on you for making the decision to eat more early on :)

yep I remember Michelle Bridges said do your work out, do your after work out stretching routine then turn monitor off :)

WOW!!! What a thread!! :noway: :bigsmile: Just wish i had enough calories left for popcorn and peanut M&Ms :laugh: :drinker: Think i might need to check out the chit chat, fun and games ( boy does this thread give fun and games a new meaning ROFL) more often! I only stumbled on this thread because it came up in the recent…

hahaha nope that doesn't sound a bit impulsive at all :laugh:

ok i am a bit curious about the whole sleep analysis thing. LIke it tells you the quality of your sleep, how long you slept for, how often you got up etc etc.. Whilst its all cool information to have, i do get that sleep is important for weight loss, just as sleep is important for good health full stop! What i am a bit…

excellent news about the toe!!! :D Dont' overdo that happy dance and stumble into anything else LOL Yep a few light runs sound like a fantastic idea now you know what you are dealing with! Just to keep the muscles awake so to speak :) Very happy for you! You are going to rock the 5k :D

Have you been to the doctor about it? what do they say? I don't know how long these things take to heal but if the doctor seems to think you should be right by then, I say you will be fine to run the distance. At the end of the day the last week before a race, you taper out anyway and in all reality even without your…

I remember this discussion once before and that that Military version is more accurate for men. The covert bailey (sp?) is more accurate for women :)

ahhhh got ya!! Thanks for the explanation it makes total sense now :) Its interesting how running can now be a release for stress too! Like i had to go through a stressful experience a few weeks ago, and i found the next day i ran longer than i was supposed to because I needed that release to help with the stress!! :)…

hahaha you guys have squirrels we have Magpies!! OMG they are horrid and scary !! :laugh: They even try and swoop the Rottweilers! Thankfully their breeding season is over for now :)

how does shipping work to Australia? I can't find overseas shipping there?
