All Inclusive holidays for 11 days... how much damage can be done???
:# I'm off with the family for 11 days to an all inclusive resort... I know in all honesty that there will be lots of cocktails and food consumed... there will not be a food scale involved... Obviously I will try and make good choices and get some daily exercise but the book is open on how much damage can be done in this…

Is it time to slow the loss????
Feeling really tired today... Sleep patterns all over the place, asthma and allergies playing havoc... can't see me getting many steps in today so it'll be a struggle to keep under calorie goal... I've been set to lose 1 lb per week and I've achieved this consistently, in fact most weeks I've averaged 1.2 lb... I was…

Why do I still feel massive?
Ok so I'm on a bit of a downer today, have had a crazy busy week and I'm really tired having had an average of 5.5 hrs sleep all week... I had been putting off buying new clothes as I'm only half way to goal weight, but I was away with work this week and decided to treat myself to some new jeans. I have gone from a UK16/18…

trend weight or scale weight?
Just curious... I have always logged my scale weight in MFP weekly on Thursday... However I weigh every day and log in Healthcare app which shows me my trend weight... This morning I had a big drop on the scales, 2.2lb... but my trend is appearing as 2.3lb higher than this! I'm just curious, weight is going down on both…

60K cycle with no training???
Just realised that there is a cycle tour on this weekend locally with 60, 100 and 160K routes... I've been doing C25K since Feb and can run comfortably for 25 minutes. I've had a few spinning classes lately and I did take an 18K bike ride 2 weeks ago as the weather was nice. I did this comfortably in c.45 minutes. Would it…

C25K... repeat or continue?
Just completed wk4 of c25k.. I had to do day 3 twice to be able to complete all the runs without pausing. However while I did complete all the runs, I really struggled. I think I'm going slow enough (I covered 4.13km in the 34 minutes including the warm up & cool down) So should I do w4d3 until I am comfortable or move…

logging when on holidays?
I am heading to Iceland in a few weeks for a short break... just wondering how people log when on holiday? I'm guessing that we will be doing lots of walking, so hoping that this will cover any extra calories that will be consumed! Still, I'm just wondering what people normally do when travelling?

Is a sprint duathlon in 5wks time a realistic goal?
I've just completed the C25K program and am doing my first 5k on Wed... I've done the course already and I'm hoping to complete in under 32min... Last week I bought myself a road bike. I haven't really cycled for a long time (almost 15 years) but before that I cycled ALL the time. I took the bike out for my first spin the…

skipping a week in C25K?
I've been following the C25K program and am amazed at how fitter I've become... I've had a lot on my mind this week and I don't know if its because of been distracted that I keep messing up my podcasts. I was due to start Wk5 on Tuesday and went out to do my run quite late. Because it was so dark I didn't do my usual quiet…

Is anyone else suffering from bad wind???
I've noticed since I started my weight loss journey that I am not a particularly nice person to be around, I could clear a room in minutes! What's going on, is it dwon to all the extra fruit and veg???? And more importantly when can I expect this to subside?
