How long do your gym sessions last?
I'm just curious to know what other people consider a good length for a gym session/how much long manage each time (especially those with busy lives!) I don't track closely but my sessions recently tend to last 45-90 mins each time (depending on whether I do a bit of cardio/ how long rests between sets are), and I aim for…

Swimsuit advice- should I size up or size down?
I have just bought 2 one piece swimsuits online (same design and colour), one UK size 10 and one size 12. I am planning to send back the one that doesn't fit, but I ordered both because I vary a lot between sizes normally and in the past I have made the mistake of buying them too big in the chest so they're baggy and…

Thinking of buying a fitbit- advice please?
I am thinking of investing in a Fitbit but I'm on a tight budget. I use a Polar FT4 HRM for my workouts but its been cutting out at random intervals recently (with a recently changed battery) so it isn't as reliable as it used to be.

I don't like eggs! Good breakfast ideas?
I'm trying to think of breakfast ideas that are filling and will last more than a couple of hours. Most substantial breakfast ideas have eggs though, which I have never liked in any form. Any ideas? I've been having yoghurt for years with nuts/seeds and fruit. But since I've been trying to cut down on sugar recently I'm…

How did I lose 5lbs in just over a week whilst still overeating?!
Ok so all through Christmas I ate a lot (as one does at Christmas) so after new year I decided to start tracking food again. My weight on New Years Day was 155.5lbs, but according to my logging I've been averaging about 500 cals a day too much (I'm more logging to keep an eye on my intake than anything), as in my goal is…
