What stage are you at?
Hi everyone Thank you for starting the group. I've just done w2 and am about to start w3. I'm excited to be starting this. I've usually got stuck doing 3k and then something knocks me off track and I never quite get beyond that point. I'm hoping that by doing it this way I can build up my distance without it being too…

My first 5k on the treadmill
Yay! Today I did it. Finally stayed on the dreadmill till I finished my 5k. I did a slow jog for about 10 mins then did sprints - it made it so much more interesting and by sprinting for 1 min, walking for 2 mins, the distance was clocking round much quicker. Time was 40:35 - aim now, of course, is to get the time down.

How much to lose per week
I only put down to lose 1lb per week but it was only allowing me 1300 cals and I was finding it really difficult to stick to. I spoke to my personal trainer at the gym and he thought this was a really low amount of calories, so I've adjusted it now to 0.5lb per week which doesn't sound a lot but I'm still hoping to lose at…

Protein/Fat/Carbs
Does it matter if you don't stick within exact numbers it gives you here on MFP? For example, I am working out tomorrow and it tells me I am over on the amount of protein, although I am well within my calories.

English fish and chips
It says less than 500 cals for a generic fish and chips - can't believe that!! Really?

Newbie here

Looking forward to starting to see some results and have just come back from a 45 min…
