Ridiculously excited about weights...
I've just joined my local gym, it's much smaller than my last gym (big, young demographic and just didn't feel "right") but it's got everything you could need, the staff are lovely, so welcoming and encouraging. I'm booked in to set up a real training programme to use the "big" weights with proper instructions on form and…

Any Libra app gurus?
Today my new upgraded phone arrived, I've now switched all my apps across but the Libra app has been wiped clean, all my entries are gone :s ...do you know of any way to get them back? I noticed that you don't create an account with Libra so there is no way to log in...do I just need to start again?? Thanks

First mini break since starting MFP
I feel a bit silly posting about this but I'm going on a mini break with my BF over the next 3 days and I'm a little nervous as this is my first trip since starting MFP in January! It's an overnight ferry trip over to Amsterdam for the day then back again. I'm a pretty routine eater (roughly the same diet/planned meals and…

Am I being too "aggressive" with my goal?
Hi Everyone, Just looking for the thoughts of the MFP "gurus" regarding my goal; admittedly I don't have much to lose; I'm 5ft 8" in January I weighed 170lbs, current weight is 164.2lbs and aiming for 154lbs. My weekly loss is set at 1lb per week this gives me 1340cals a day (my Fitbit shows extra cals gained throughout…

Am I recording the calories right...?
Morning everyone, This may be a very silly question but when in doubt ask; I often use Sainsbury's Easy Cook Long Grain Rice, the info on the packet says uncooked 100g = 117 cals; once I weigh out 100g and cook it is it still 117cals I should be logging in my diary? I know this may seem like a dumb question but for the…

Pure Gym - Pure Fat Burn Class
Seeking some guidance peeps, I have a "Pure Fat Burn" class tonight, which I've done before, it's mostly body weight exercises; burpees, push ups, star jumps, mountain climbers...anything which keeps the heart rate up for the 30 mins. Not entirely sure how to log it, I'm thinking putting in 250cls to stay on the cautious…

Libra App...
Hi Everyone, After reading a few posts on here about daily weigh ins (before I was trying to stick to a Saturday morning at the gym but it wasn't always practical), last night I downloaded the Libra app on to my phone. Put my first weigh in today and my expectations for loss so we'll see how it goes! Hopefully it'll help…

What I have learned from the Message Boards...
Hi Everyone, Last week was the first time I’ve properly read through the messages boards after being on MFP for a few weeks and they are great! Not only do you excellent advice and encouragement but its great entertainment too…I’m amazed at some of the things people ask/do/believe regarding losing weight. I’m very much a…

A little clarification required please...
Hi Folks, I'm sure this has been asked countless times but I'm looking for a strength training programme I can follow at my gym. Looking through previous posts there is loads of information and tbh it's all a bit overwhelming. I’m looking to tone up the usual places; arms, stomach, butt and back (especially those chubby…
