So....Long time no see, anyone remember me!?
Hello! I fell off the face of the MFP forum earth for a while there huh? A LOT has happened. You'll remember I got to 60lbs lost and was chipping along nicely. And then things started to go a bit haywire. Thought it was my usual MH stuff. Trucked on for a good 18 months and regained about 20lbs. Had enough and hired a…

Another UK Oppo thread! Now in Asda and Sainsbury's
Got an email today from them (sign up and you'll get a voucher FYI) that they are now being stocked in Asda and Sainsbury's. Apparently my really crap Sainsbury's even has it, have not yet checked to confirm, it would be one of the few reasons to go into that branch. But I digress. So it will also be interesting to see who…

Hip dysplasia and snapping hip modifications
So I was recently diagnosed and saw the physio for the first time yesterday. Obviously there's nothing to be done about the dysplasia but it is only in one hip and not severe. She said that obviously, and you know this, high impact is out. So I'm not sad about running because I was sporadic about it at best (though it is…

Garmin and negative adjustments - I think it's gone wonky
I've tried looking on the Garmin forums and it seems there is an issue with adjustments I'm just not sure how much of an issue. I had negative adjustments turned off for a while as I just lowered my calorie goal manually to 100 per day lower to allow for logging and exercise inaccuracies. Then this week I have upped my…

Fun debate about CICO
The perennial debate has come up with a friend today about the only thing mattering being CICO. He argues food affects how many calories are stored as fat due hormone interruption. So what you eat matters. As someone who does the moderation thing I refute this. I argue science and that health contains can affect BMR but…

Diary and seeing weekly averages
I may be really late to this party. I knew you could see weekly intake and averages. What I didn't know was you could skip forward a few days and get a current overview of your week so far! Just made things a lot easier as I work weekly and was just sort of making educated guesses! Screen shots of what I mean below.

Exercise induced anxiety and running
So as in the title, I have exercise induced anxiety. To begin with I couldn't even workout at home but I've kept going and have recently made so much improvement I have started running outside. I've been at it about 3 weeks and run 3-4 times weekly. I do it at the quietest times of the day in the quietest part of a large…

The Story So Far
Today I hit a a big goal, I am 2 stone down (28lbs to the non-Brits). I have had a lot of health problems over the last few years and to finally be in control of something feels amazing. Not only that but this morning I ran 3.7 miles. Never in all my days did I ever think running was something I'd do voluntarily, even when…
