That is amazing, thanks for sharing, very effective, of the time it takes and to keep working on it. Have you also gone down in age, as you look alot younger as well :) Great inspiration thank you again

Thank you so much for this, is jsut what i needed. The scales haven't moved in months and was starting to get real done about it. However i feel better, and way fitter healthier, clothes are either too big or fit now, have gone down in clothes sizes and have lots of people comment on how much i have lor or how good i look.…

Wow amazing, thanks def going to make those can't wait. Do they freeze ok, could be useful to have in freezer when wanting a quick meal and bf wants bad food.

Yes, so true, planning is so important. Also listen to your hunger, so when do you get the urge for something you shouldn't or extra snacks, allow yourself the right suff then so you don't get really hungry and blow it. Do you have a smart phone the app works great for me, before having something i will check and often…

I don't have rest days, had a PT tell me you eat 7 days. I rest's from doing weights or high intensity. So a rest day may be a light jog or a walk. I find i can't not do anything.

So hear ya. Been through same thing recently. Have found not doing quite as much as had been , but in saying that I was doign a heck of a lot. I just keep pushing on and also have tried few new things so don't get bored.

Just sent a invite. Kiwi gal myself living in north east victoria, where they don't care about Rugby is all AFL.

Soudns great to me, good job. Just remeber to keep uping the intensity. So when using the glider each time see if you can go further distance wise (if you have a computer that shows you) so one day you go 2 miles next day imporve on that even if only slightly. With wieghts make sure you are increasing your load. So if you…

I have been albe to loose weight and get healthy and still have weekends drinking and a few wines in week. Not all will agree but I decided i was going to do this in a way i could achieve and still have a life. I just make sure i excercise and that helps and try to reduce it when i can. Weekends if going to have an off…

You look great, can see you are healthy more of a glow. Plus can see diff in your shoulders and neck

I think you'll be fine, great selection of healthy meals etc, fresh ingrediants. Sumo salad is good, sushi places etc, easy to find some healthy takeaway options too. Vegemite on toast is good too, should at least try it.

thanks for sharing

It takes time to work on it, but the biggest thing is finding the right foods that are lower in cals, and then it becomes alot easier to eat the correct amount. Log things in and expirment. Sometimes it is about what you are eating and that has been the best thing i have learnt from MFP, if you eat the right stuff you can…

yeah the same, sometiems do real awesome work out and don't feel the cal burn truely reflects it

Sounds like a good idea to get through winter. I live north east vic, near the moutains so gets very cold sometimes even bit of snow, i feel your pain. Plus i hate day light savings being over, so much harder walking the dog after work.

That is awesome, i have been doing this about 7 months now, and was the same, i find i balance it more and the spurges become less and less, this is the great thing about this site, you learn balance and how to live but do it in a much healthier way. whe i now going to be a bad weekend, i get up and do heaps of excercise…

I found the Changs one in Coles and IGA has Slim pasta which isn't bad.

Visable difference, hell yeah, i had to check a few times to see is the same person, 6 months, that is amazing, you look fantastic, your are an inspiration.

Jillian Michaels Killer buns and thighs, 3 x 30ish min workouts really targetting those areas, yet to do level 3 though it was full on.

Thank you so much for that. I have just started Running (yay) Never thought i would or could, but recently started and getting better, such a great feeling, Plus my Dog thinks it's the best thing :)

HRM is best, but i logged as 30 mins circuit and when i used my HRM was acutally about right.

Hi so agree, will add you, keen for motivation and happy to give it back too,

I would reconmend perhaps seeing a nutrionist and having something taylored to you, due to previous health issue, isn't always one thing fits all, may cost you a bit but perhaps the results would be worth it.

yum, thanks, might add some spice to it too, try and make it a bit like southern fried chicken

the fact you are on the site and working through it is great. Kudos to you. It takes time, just keep working at it and making small goals. Don't always focus on scales, don't forget your clothes how you feel and look. Don't fell guity to eat, eat the right stuff, even if you went over a bit but is all good food is better…

I burn about that on my polar FT4. 70 mins is decent, i always make sure i am at least in the zone a good amount of the time, having my hrm has made me push harder on walk. Even when i go on shorter walks with the dog, but heart rate about 130 ish, i burn nearly 200 cals.

Thanks guys appreciate it. :)
