I've been eating not logging past couple of days. Not toooo bad - I used to eat worse - but erratic and having a mince pie for breakfast this morning kinda sums it up. I hardly ever drink now but tonight (Christmas Eve now nearly 11 pm) I am having a can of beer. Really looking forward to monday and getting fully back on…

I can't wait for Monday - really looking forward to starting. I hatched this plan with a friend in October so been waiting ages to start at a time I knew work wouldn't get in the way of me finishing. No idea how i'll do with the fit test but I think i will find a few exercises very hard indeed :))

Hello all I hatched a plan around Oc tober to start my first round of Insanity on 26th December. Posted a couple of times on the forums looking for others interested but there didn't seem to be anybody! So i am real excited to join this group. I'm Ali, 42 and mum to two pre schoolers. I work full time (boo!!) and live in…

I've got that book on its way from Amazon for Xmas plus a new heavier ste of kbs - can't wait! :) Glad to read that you liked it!

Hiya I like the Angie millar dvd and I have heard others say the SKOGG ones are good - you can watch him on youTube - just serach for Skogg. I also downloaded a good app for my iphone - KB Fat loss by Samuel Pont training - basic but decent w/out and the app plays properly. HTH A x

Hiya everyone I'm Ali and I'm in Hamilton. I have a few Scottish pals so will let them know about the group. I've been on MFP since April this year and lost just under 40lbs - I estimate I have around 5 or so to go. haven't lost much the last 2 - 3 months as just been focusing on maintaining but going to dig in and get the…

HI I'm originally from West Lothiaan (Whitburn) but in South Lanarkshire (hamilton) now. Haven't joined up to the SL facilities cos the budget won't stretch at the moment. Spotted on the site that there is a Kettlebell class at the John Wright Centre so will prob start that in the New Year! A :)

Hiya I'd love to share this journey with you too. I'm 42 with two young boys aged 4 and 2, have a full time demanding job, long commute, elderley parents, also trying to study distance learning etc etc. Exercise and healthier habits has made such a difference to my health and sense of self this year that i do find time to…

VG you are the best and I know we'll get through it I'm scared too! i ahve been doing Turbo Fire and it has been great for upping my cardio levels. tae Bo would probably do similar. Can't wait for…

Thanks everyone - that's really helpful. Anyone have opinions about the before bed suggestion...read that in a few different articles and thought it may be useful since I exercise so early and on empty too - but hesitant about taking it just before sleeping?

thanks everyone Have sent you all a friends request, I think! :smile:

Deep heat seems to be working nicey though so still planning to get going tomorrow morning. Must eat more protein - must eat…

Hi welcoe to MFP. I was overweight for almost a decade always planning but never actually losing. I thought of it as temporary but one day realise that 'temporary' doesn't match with years and years. OH eats cake biscuits ice-cream every day and I'd say he is 'skinny fat' - slim but not healthy. I can empathise. I've lost…

Welcome - i agree lots of freinds help to keep you going. I'm 41 - two young kids and in Scotland. Would love to have you as a friend. :happy:
