Ahhhh also my pet hate! Nicely addressed Mr Chuck!

Hi I have a Garmin FR60 which I love :heart: It has a foot pod for distance and cadence / breaks my runs down It has a watch / speedo etc. HR, cals burned, running, general or bike You can buy the bike pod if it's your thing (I dont have one) It has a chest strap too & a USB stick interface which allows me to see each…

At the moment - Kings of Leon - most of their stuff, and on the other extreme a Club mix of wonderwall ...

Yes they too are my friends :laugh: I amended my workouts to incorproate some variation. I started doing kettle bell workouts, HIIT workouts and some weigths, helping my body to work off the excess more efficiently. I would really recommend trying a variation of workouts during the week - there are some amazing people on…

I think if I am honest, dont think, that the muscle / fat thing is as far as it goes. If you genuinely need to lose 60lbs, then I dont think that you should be at a plateau. Have you eaten within the MFP suggested cals, and recorded everything, as well as tracked your water and your sodium? I got stuck half way to my goal…

Hi, Good luck with it - this site is fantastic support! Beth

Its such a bummer when that happens, I'd ahve a look at your sodium intake and drink more water, see if you can flush it out of your syste. Sodium is grim! Keep going - you're doing absolutely the right things so it will come off!!!

Amazing- you look totally relaxed and so happy in your now photos, gorgeous!

Wow - incredible job - well done!

Excellent job - in terms of weight - without knowing your stats it's hard to say, but I would get there and se how you look and feel - only you can tell when enough's enough! Amazing job so far, well done - never mind how much weight you've lost - you look a whole lot younger too, great dedication! Beth :bigsmile:

Afternoon everyone - I've been very remiss about being on any of the boards lately - the iphone app is just too easy!! Anyway - I am a northerner (sorry to ruin the Guildford dream! :blushing: ), mother of two, and working to get back off the Xmas mince pies - it's coming off with less alcohol and puddings, but my sweet…

I dont drink very much of it because it's full of aspartame which is really not good for you. Find a water you like, or buy sparkling water and add a cordial (no added sugar), much better for you.

I am a kickboxer too (or I was ...) and I love Turbo Fire - it's a combination, nice and fast and really great workout!

:flowerforyou: I cannot thank you enough - like the others have said - I have made some amazing and supportive friends on this site and I rely on it to keep me on track, motivated and in a place I am now loving to be. Thank you both - and have an amazing Thanksgiving. Beth :smooched:

Hi, I dont do Slimming world, but have done a few years ago. There's nothing on there that will make you put on weight, provided that you don't use the opportunity to eat more than your body needs. Listen to your body, when you're full, stop eating - there is no such thing as "free" food - it may be free on SW but it still…

Husbands nickname is Yatesy - by association I am therefore MrsYatesy - not very exciting!

Any Chalean Johnson workout (I do TurboFire) or the 30 day Shred, both really good workouts! I use Kettlebells workouts as well, love them. I lost most of my weight and got fitter working out at home than I ever did when I just went to the gym! Short intense workouts do it for me! Have fun!

What a great load of stories - whwo knew the gym provided so much more than fitness???!! We have the usual set of weights boyz who all watch themselves in the mirror, but my pet hate is light grey cotton workout tops. It's a gym - work hard and you will sweat - but really - I dont want to see every patch of it ............…

I would be there in a shot! If you combined the restaurant with a take out service where I could buy a breakfast which was healthy and I am not standing behind the guy having triple sausage bacon & egg sandwich for his breakfast that would be a bonus. I am really limited to where I can grab lunch and you know what, I hate…

I used the vibro plate in my gym a couple of years ago when it first came out to intensify my strength training - doing the plank on one of those things is seriously hard work, and squats etc. are good - but personally I would use it as an aid, but not the only thing you do. I wouldnt discount DVDs, they are what has got…

Hi Kayla, Good luck on your journey and you've certainly come to a great place - I love MFP and all the people are so supportive and helpful - it's a great reflection on what society could be :smile: Beth

Fantastic!! Well done on your great achievements! Hope the jeans shop are ready for you ;-)!! :happy:

Mmmmm - thanks for this - I'll be doing some baking this weekend!! :happy:

Well done !!!

You know what - you've done the bit that is hard - you've got through the emotional bit and worked out that you want to sort it out for you - that's huge! You know you can do this and you know what you are able to do - maybe a few more DVDs at home now if your partner is not there to look after your son whilst you're at…

Hi, I've had a look at your diary too - and honestly I don't think you are eating enough! If you're logging everything you eat then wow - you must be either really hungry or have amazing will power - but your body needs more. Being under by 400/500 cals on top of what MFP calculates you need, and not drinking enough water,…

Personally I would avoid the curry sauce, I would probably go for a veggie stir fry with some jasmine / boiled rice. It's hard to mix the two (social and watching) but if you are more aware of what you're doing you automatically do better than you would have done before! Enjoy your girls night!

No, they make someone a lot of money but not us!!! Burning more than you consume is a better way to rid yourself of fat stores! Have fun.

Hi, That HR for your age and weight seems high for fat loss, and that you would be training more for stamina / anaerobic rather that fat loss, although my theory is (no science here) all exercise is good - but hey - maybe that's why I am in IT! If I am at 170 (although I weigh 147lb & am a lot older than you at 37) I am…

You look like a completely different person - I take my hat off to you for your perseverance and your huge achievement!! Well done! :flowerforyou:
