I cannot recommend having your gait analysed highly enough. I had issues running with pain in the outsides of my lower leg / shin area, and it turned out to be problems with my ITB, that were being aggravated by the wrong running shoes. I over-pronate, so needed stability shoes rather than the neutral ones I had. I…

Don't let the BMI scale annoy you, it's acknowledged that its a fairly blunt tool when it comes to measuring anything worthwhile. It's just a way of 'categorising' people that has little individual use. For instance, in the UK, most professional rugby players, who are supremely fit and healthy, would be considered obese by…

+2 for talking to a reputable local specialist shop. The little more you will pay is VASTLY outweighed by the fact that they can put you on a number of bikes and you get see how you feel. Cycling is my obsession since I took it up a couple of years back, it's just so much fun. Give it a go! As for your weight, nearly all…

First booze free Friday. Feeling OK, actually. Went to the gym, it was nice and quiet. Am looking forward to waking up tomorrow fresh as a daisy and doing a bit of off road mountain biking in gale force winds. :D

Four days in for me, and I would usually have had a few down the pub on at least one of those days, and I haven't missed it at all. Tomorrow night will be the big test for me, but I don't feel I am 'abstaining' from anything, so I've high hopes.

Late to the party, but determined to do it! 25 mins running - total 25 mins.

Personally, I won't attend any gym that doesn't have the below as an absolute minimum standard of dress for females.

Keep at it! :)

Just listened to the podcast, book now on my amazon 'to buy' list. Doubt it will be there too long before it's on my bookshelf! :D

I'm from North Lincs, work all over 'the north', including Humber region, Yorkshire, and most of the North East. Looking to loose a few pesky pounds that crept back on in November / December and generally get super fit. Feel free to add me!

Good for you ~ giving up smoking has to be one of the best health and fitness goals a smoker can make, so I hope it all works out for you.

Just to reinforce what has already been said, fluctuations in weight of 1lb are completely normal, due to how hydrated you are, bodily movements, etc. You won't have put on a pound of fat in one day. As has been said, either take lots and lots of readings over a whole period of time, say a week, and average them out and…

That's sad to hear~ nothing good can come from people feeling inhibited from telling the truth.

I'm in ~ started today. I think the weekends will be tough, but I am hoping to see an increase in my general fitness levels. If that’s the case, then I might have to think about stopping all together. Lets see how it goes!

She is making a living by being as obnoxious and controversial as possible. I doubt she even means half the tripe that projects from her mouth, she is simply playing to the gallery and raking in the appearance money. Her star will fade and she will eventually go away. My fear now, however, is the term 'fat shaming' that is…

Cycling is great exercise, and can be enjoyed at a level that suits your own fitness and goals. I have found it superb for weight loss / management, and general health and well being. As you say, it's also tremendous fun! However be warned, as has already been pointed out, it is addictive! :smiley: I started cycling just…
