  • Who is Dr Oz?
  • You took on a new lifestyle to get the weight off, your old lifestyle put the weight on, in conclusion, WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED..You know what to do, and its not sitting on your bum eating crisps and chocolate (though you can sometimes) lol. Good luck and keep moving, you did great. If you need any motivation feel free to…
  • BAD news people, everybody dies :'( Sad news very few people really live :o GOOD news YOU are alive in this moment and always will be ;)
  • Oh dear sound painful. I would rest, use Ice packs, takes Ibuprophen (if you can) then awaite your doctor appointment, Perhaps Iron strength may not be for you...Good luck and take care...and REST
  • Ok well perhaps your answer is in that shortfall, I would suggest a danger of exhaustion or injury if you don't give your body the fuel you need, being tired is your body telling you to either slow down or 'FEED ME SEAMORE' Exercise is after all stressful. Look at it this way, through exercise we tear and destroy muscle…
  • First off I can only speak from my own experience. Personal energy levels are difficult to advise on for we are all individual, we can feel tired from eating too much and not moving enough, or vice versa lol. I had a look through your diary (well done on keeping that open) you do seem to consistently fall below your TDEE,…
  • Dont be discouraged, you have made great inroads to a change of lifestyle, carry on down you path, read and research as much as you can about nutrition, there is lots of info just a few key strokes away, Just to echo the above, your body composition, fluid retention loss of fat and activation of muscle will result in…
  • Well done, keep going you are doing great! As for the smoking, you know its stupid the only motivation I can give you is, I watched my Dear Mother in Law Die of Lung Cancer, A very high risk of a horrible slow death should be motivation enough :'(
  • First off you are doing plenty, all I would suggest is to mix it up, add in some resistense training some circuit training and some stretching pilates yoga, we are all different and have different taste so you need to find stuff that you enjoy and will thus maintain, make it fun and keep your body guessing and learning,…
  • Im not going to tell you what to do all I will add is don't follow trends as we are all very different, research and experiment. This is worth a read: http://news.cancerconnect.com/low-carbohydrate-diet-shows-risks-and-benefits/ In Summary To summarize—a low-carbohydrate may have both pros and cons, but uncertainties…
  • Some of this thread…hummm
  • I hear you, and you will get lots of advice, I wont pretend to be any kind of expert, and what I do can only really apply to me, we are all different thats a fact to log early on, do not try to live up to other peoples values, find your's and stick stubbornly to them! Here is a great place to start, this man is an expert:…
  • Google and watch some videos of how they make the food and what goes in them, that should put you off the muck lol :smile:
  • Hi Nicola, Watch and listen to this and YOU WILL BE MOTIVATED!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQupiauyZYE All the best James
  • White without, unless its the weekend when its cupofchinohoho all the way (no sugar it ruins it, I wouldn't add it to my Ale so why add it to coffee lol). :smile:
  • Watched my Mpther in Law die of Lung Cancer…please don't smoke you are loved
  • Looks like you are being very mindful of your chosen macro balance act, so yes it could I guess. I have toyed with the idea of high protein eating but I'm in middle age and there has been a lot of research pointing to an increased risk of cancer from high protein eating plans,…
  • I stopped counting and left MFP, 6 months later I am back and up 7lbs. Now the thing is I know exactly why I gained (we all do) it was lack of discipline, I had too many Easter Eggs lol after that my sweet tooth kicked in and for some reason I didn't care. I kept up an otherwise healthy lifestyle, I'm very active and…
  • I'm in the UK all feel free to add me, Open diary to friends, try to be Mr motivator and I log regularly on days that don't start with 'S' I'm starting back after letting things slip a (6lbs) bit over the summer…Im only human…allegedly.
  • It's 80% about showing up, It has to become like personal hygiene, YOU require attention and thought every day :smile:
  • Hey not everyone likes the Gym, I echo many comments and say, Move your body, find something you like be it walking, gardening, swimming, cycling, workout vides, you tube free workouts or a mix of all, just move because you can! For me exercise is a habit, It has become who I am, but I grew up in a family with severe…
  • Ok I will join in, I'm 5'10" and currently 180lbs, I am a slim build and have a fair amount of muscle from years of strength training, cycling and martial arts, but I do tend to carry around the mid section, I am aiming for 168 as with my frame and musculature should be ripped and free from belly fat around that level, if…
  • His joints and bones will still be a bit like green shoots on a tree, so lift yes but light and high reps, or preferably do body weight moves, Pull ups Press Ups High Knees Burpees lunges etc, moves that use the whole body from the core out will burn off the calories and fat and will give him a solid foundation to start…
  • No you don't have to count calories forever, when you think about it after you have had a stint of counting you kind of get a hang on what you should be eating, I find this site most useful for being mindful and posting discussing fitness stuff that bores the pants off of Facebook friends about my gym attendance. I have…
  • Hi, Ooooo!….. this is a good idea I like those, if you do to, please feel free to add me :bigsmile:
  • Do both, seriously, mix it up keep the metabolism guessing and burnig. Also you gotta get Pilaties or yoga in there for balance, flexibility core strength and a yin yang balance, above all have fun :smile:
  • Steal yourself, do home workouts. You know you have to do something! google 'Beach Body' (other products available lol) they have some great workouts, Tony Horton's 'Ten Minute Trainer (come on you CAN handle 10 minutes) would be a good start, plus the guy is fun and inspirational. You will get gradually fitter and slowly…
  • You are an inspiration, well done. :smile:
  • For me variety is the spice of life, I mix it up for instance cycling, strength training, calasthenics, Stretching/yoga, jogging, walking and running, hopping climbing and jumping off stuff with my young Son. My one constant is Wing Chun and has been for the last 2 years. Whatever you do people enjoy it and have fun and a…
