CHALLENGE Green Vs Red Starting 1st August
Hello Ladies and Gents, Earlier this month, I joined a challenge to get green numbers throughout the whole month - I think most of the people who joined either failed, forgot or gave up the challenge and it was not very succesful. I myself did awful but was not very dedicated to MFP at the time. HOWEVER, August I am BACK…

C25K Questions (AGAIN) !!
Hello folks, Just completed Week 8 Run 2 - STILL IN LOVE WITH IT !!! Just wondering, do you include the warm up / warm down walks in your distance or do you just record the actual run part as your distance?? Normally, I use an app and record my work out from the time I start walking to the time I stop walking - however…

Didn't know where to post this one .... SPOTS !!!
Is there anyone else out there who gets spotty when you cut out choc / cakes / sweets / generally bad unhealthy foods?? I have quite good skin generally, but whenever I make a serious effort to cut the cr@ppy food out my diet big red yucky spots appear on my face (mainly my forehead) ... they don't last forever, but still,…

C25K - still smiling
So, here I am, about to begin week 7 tonight - which I believe is 3x 25mins runs. This is the ONLY thing I have managed to stick at over the last couple of months and I'm really enjoying it. The smile on my face when Laura announced "I now consider you a runner" at the end of week 6, run 3 was quite a biggen !!! As there…

Fat/Muscle/Water %
I was just wondering if anyone knew what % for fat, muscle and water was a "normal" amount - what was bad, etc .... I have put on 4lb over the last few weeks and although I've not done very well with eating, I have been exercising quite a bit, so I have decided to record the above %'s to see if I am gaining muscle, rather…

INSANITY POST
So, I have decided Insanity is my next mission after completing 30DS this morning. I just have a couple of questions: 1. Do I log it as circuit training? 2. How often do I have to do the fit test? I have just completed my first test. 3. How many days do I have to do each section for??

Does this really happen ??
I have seen quite a few posts, that after a while, people have started to dislike foods such as KFC, Pizza, Burgers and Chips etcetc. Is this really going to happen to me??? I could eat pizza 3x per day and although I don't want to stop liking it, pigging out on all the above options, rather than opting for a nice fresh…

No willpower, and struggling to even want to get back on it!
So, today is my 50th day from logging in since re-starting with MFP and I have just checked back through my diary and about 18 of those days have been failures. Most of the failings happening in the last 2 weeks and most of them being 300 - 3000 calories OVER!!! I was 3.3/4lbs away from my goal weight and I'm now at least…

C25K query - regarding distance
Hiya, I have started this programme and was wondering if anyone could advise me. I carried out day 1 of week 3 tonight and I'm just as surprised as I was when I carried out day 1 of week 2 - in that the distance walked/jogged has not increased from the previous week - it has decreased. Did this happen for anyone else? I…

Any recommendations on what to try next?
I am currently on my last week of JM30DS. As I can see my muscles have got more defined, I don't want to just stop in 7days and undo my hardwork, but I don't want to start the 30DS again so soon - does anyone have any recommendations of any fitness DVDs that are similar to the 30DS? It needs to last under 30mins as I fit…
