All right I'm back...
...so the 'holiday' season was BAD for me. Just before the break I was only updating sporadically, on Dec 22nd I was put under completely incredible pressure at work which induced a lot of stress, Christmas day I was told a close friend had died. Was a horrible shock and another complete knock sideways, and then after…

Comedy this morning....
...was me. I did 5km on the treadmill and then did some cross trainer, I'm training for my 5km run so I was very pleased to be hitting that distance and doing it under 40mins which I felt was a great time for me (and is my 'goal' time anyway). Once finished I hit the showers got dressed and walked the 5mins from the gym to…

Pepsi Max - Withdrawal Symptoms.
Thought I'd note them down. Yesterday I 'gave up' pepsi max, I finished off a bottle (about a litre) and promised myself that I wouldn't drink it any more. I've been through this before so I know it's Pepsi Max related, either the Aspartame or the Caffeine withdrawal. Thought you may be interested to see what I go through.…

Had a think today. What has changed.
I've been on this journey now for a little over three months. And I was thinking about how much in my life has changed. I never expected I would come so far this quickly, but I thought I'd make a list and I'm curious to see if anyone else things their lives have changed because of their journey. First, and the most…

I really thought I had a bad couple of weeks....
2 weeks not weighing myself, heart not in it, not tracking everything and I went over a few times. That said I was still doing more than I used too, walking to the station, I didn't eat 'awfully' I did have a couple of takeaways but no crisps/sweets/junk etc. I didn't weigh myself for 2 weeks so I was thinking maybe I've…

Quick Question - Treadclimber
Okay so I've discovered I have a real liking of the machine made be Nautilus. It claims to be twice the workout and "just like fell walking" and I'd have to say that I'm certainly feeling that. I have never sweated on a machine in the gym like I have on this one. If you don't know how it works, basically it's a treadmill…

The story of my life.
I'm not really sure where to put this :) I'm hoping to add to this as we go along and remind myself why I'm doing this, so Motivation seemed like the right place. I reckon we've probably got some good stories out there since there are some great people on this site. Excuse me if I waffle a bit, there is a lot to get off my…

5 day crash... Myth or true?
To cut a long story short yesterday I went to the cinema and to dinner with some friends and during the film I went from being 100% fine to being shakey and burning up like mad. I didn't eat my dinner and I felt just awful. I get home after all this and chat to my flatmate, she tells me that it's probably just a '5 day…

Revalations: Ever had any?
Just wondering. Today I had one, I cooked myself a meal and started eating, complete the meal would take me to 9 calories under my target for the day so perfect as I don't plan on eating anything else :) I started feeling a little full halfway through dinner so had a few more bites and put the plate down. Then I couldn't…

New Here,
Hi All Well, randomly searched for something to help out and found the iPhone app, looked good so thought I'd join up here. Nice to meet y'ou all. :) A little bit about me. I've always been a bit of a human yo-yo, I've reached 25 stone in the past, and my smallest since age 12 has been about 14 stone, I know how to do…
