Wii Fitness games
I've been using Wii fit for physio for a few years now and I don't seem to be sweating as much on the ones I can do. After watching some videos on YouTube I worked out I could adapt most of the games on EA Sports: personal Trainer (except the track running..I won't be able to do ).so I've bought that one. A friend is also…

Exercise Times
I was reading about how our body gets used to our routine after a while with certain exercises. .which maybe really hard at first then we hardly sweat or burn the same when we do them. I'm getting stuck again between 164-166 pounds then going up to around 168 with monthlies then only getting back down to the same again…

If I don't usually wake up naturally until around 7-8am, but on some days I get up at 5 am to exercise (start around 5.20am) how many extra calories will I burn between 5-7 or 8am, when I got up early to exercise? ( compared with how many I'd burn if I'd stayed asleep until 7-8am) Also if I do same routine in afternoon I…

Anyone lost from diet alone?
Hi I'm desperately trying to lose 2 stone, but I have been in wheelchair for the last 6 years. Recently I bought some passive trainer pedals which are like exercise pedals but motorised and move your legs for you (as I don't have the co-ordination to pedal myself) Since I got these I have been able to burn up to 1,000 cals…

Erratic weights... which one is right???
Got shock of my life this morning.. I decided to try weighing in bedroom as I'd removed scales form bathroom last time I took a shower. I tried the body fat scales first as they are usually lighter but put them on the rug to weigh and they said I was 8st 6!!! ... there's no way I'm 8st 6! ... so took them in bathroom to…

A stone difference between scales!
I was gutted to find I' m 12 st 2 on old scales today (type only gives you one total weight) so decided to go on body fat scales to see if my lean muscle mass number had increased to tell if I had increased muscle rather than it been fat. The body fat scales showed me at 11 st 2... I couldnt believe it, its usually a…

Also, I have some suit trousers which are…

counting pounds lost?
Hi Maths has never been my strong point though I can manage basic addition and subtraction (I think!). However I'm not sure which method is most accurate to count my weight loss? For example.. My starting weight I have put as 12st 7 as I was stuck on this for a year (even though I'd originally got down from 16st to 11st…

loads a carrots!
Hi I got lots of carrots left and they often start going off before I've had chance to use them. I was thinking of digging out my food processor and making carrot juice or something I've never attempted this before so wanted to know if I need any other ingredient? just throw carrots in? peeled or unpeeled and drink the…

need advice on calorie intake please?
Hi I'm female, 42ys. I have mild disability and after using wheelchair several years my weight has gone up to 12st 2 (170lbs i think). Online sources state an healthy weight for my height would be between 8 and half and 10 and a half stone. I'm quite erm... 'well built' around the chest area so I can't see me getting lower…
