  • If I was at the lower end of healthy BMI I would fall down a grid! I am quite tall and broad so I carry more weight. A BMI of 21.5/22 is where I'm aiming, its 23 at the moment, within the healthy range but I know I'm carrying too much fat around my middle. The scale for a healthy weight is BMI 19-24, some say 18-24,…

Guess there are lots of examples. All food for thought! Eat…

  • Running is easier outside, even with hills! I've been running outdoors for years and when I try and do a 9 minute mile pace on a treadmill I become exhausted pretty quickly! Plus its sooo boring and its hard to relax on them! Enjoy the outdoors, the freedom! Just relax shoulders and take your time! I can't run on an empty…

  • Thanks for all your thoughts! Think there is some credit to it as breads/ pasta do make me feel bloated! I have succumbed to weetabix for breakfast this morning anyway!! And of course, I'll include them in my daily calorie count! Good luck to all of you on your journeys ;-)

  • Its probably realistic that weight loss will slow down from time to time. Perhaps you need to keep eating to fire up your metabolism -sometimes it slows down, becoming more efficient on less calories, so your weight loss will slow down. Keep up the exercise, building muscle and fuel yourself for that! Keep going. Have you…
