Keep on rucking
I have an hour lunchbreak exactly and most days do a 3 mile 300ft climb loop from my house to town and back. Takes about 50 min if I walk more like 30 min if I run but I don't always like to run as dont like sitting sweaty at my desk all afternoon and dont have time to change and shower. As I can't feasibly increase my…

Cookery books. Favourite, least Favourite and why?
There are a couple of books I always go back to. The good; Deliah Smith complete cookery course. Its just a good basic guide to cooking and the recipes all just work. Jamie Oliver 5 ingredients. Simple to follow and ideal for weeknight cooking for 1. Good calorie guide to each recipe too. Nigel slater eat. So simple, quick…

Leftovers
What do you do about leftovers do you go back and edit your diary with an estimate of how much went in the bin/dog/boyfriend? Do you just count the calories anyway and hope it gives you an extra deficit? Or are you one of these people who always clears their plate or wants seconds?

Can you log kettlebell workouts anywhere on MFP?
I can only find log entries for dumbbell barbell or machines? With my gym closed since March and no sign of being able to reopen soon safely i only have kettlebells at home. Space and money mean I can't afford to change just to make MFP easier to record.

What do you do when you're just not hungry?
For the past few days my diary hasn't let me save diary function as it thinks I've eaten too little. Today I'm supposed to have 900 calories left to use up and there is no way I'm hungry enough to eat that amount. I've not underestimated my intake by that much and I'm not losing weight. I just think my body has decided its…

Not losing anything. Nada. Not a bean.
Been doing this for 3 weeks now and tracking everything. On the minimum 1200cal and running 5k per day not really hungry but also not losing any weight. Not even a pound. Expected to see an initial dip of even just water loss and maybe some muscle gain cancelling out fat loss weight but unless my scales are seriously…

Anyone else salicylate sensitive/sulphite allergy?
Its the thing I struggle with most in terms of a healthy rounded diet as healthy foods are unsafe for me and safe foods unhealthy 😅 go figure
-
Anyone else doing this by feel rather than weight?
I dont own a set of scales I haven't done in years but I know I'm above my happy weight by my body shape and size and hope to be able to judge progress by feel and if things get looser on me. Ideally I'd like to go from my current UK 12-14 back to a UK 10, maybe 8-10 regardless of what that means in actual weight. Is that…

Shifting the covid stone
Hi I'm new to this but a year of working from home, working harder than I've ever worked as a front line support role, the gyms being closed and my running and cycling clubs temporarily disbanded I need to set myself a focus so I don't turn couch potato in fitness and shape 🙃
