Fitbit Blaze, worth buying?
Hi guys, I've always had fitbit devices, right back from the flex, charge, charge HR now I'm eying up the Blaze with extreme interest. From anyone who has one, how would you rate it? It it good to use day to day? What's the battery life like? Is the screen nice and fast or is it slow like a cheap tablet? many thanks, Matt

Pact App
Hi guys, is anyone using this application? I like the idea of it but it seems to keep crashing and I don't really want to put my money on an unreliable application. Thoughts?

I'd preface this with saying I've lost over a stone in 2 months eating like this + exercising and it has worked well for me, but we're all different and hey, you may not like it, or may have dietary…

Advice
Hi guys, I realize this isn't "really" forum for these kind of things, but you have all been so helpful in the past I thought - meh, why not - chances are someone on here might have a good opinion/insight. OK so the situation is, I recently got out of a long relationship (3 years), as did the girl I'm currently seeing (4…

Losing too fast??
Hi all, I hope you're well! I have a few concerns I'm hoping some of the more experienced of you may be able to help with? Recently after having lost almost 2 stone, I put the majority of it back on during some downtime. So, knowing I could lose it again because I'd lost it before, I set about strict diet and exercise…

Father of one in need of some support!!
Hey all, Had some good success with myfitnesspal not long back, shed almost 2 stone in 2 months but lost my way. Luckily back on it now, eating right and exercising but due to my inactivity I was ditched by some of my MFP friends :( would be nice to have more to converse with. I use fitbit and am also doing 30 day core…

T5 fat burners
Hi everyone, Has anyone had any experience with T5 fat burning pills? I've been eating well and exercising and I'm loosing weight nicely, I'm just looking for something to give it a bit of a push along. Being a biologist by trade I understand the unlikely side effects of an ECA stack like T5 but as the main component is…

Slipping :(
Hey all, I've had a lot of success on here, I lost a stone in a month. However recently, probably due to the small success I've had I find myself slipping and eating rubbish more frequently. Is there anything you guys do to maintain focus once you've seen a bit of success? I really don't want to go back to eating the way I…

Too weak to train?...
hey all, some of you may have seen my recent progress. I have been working on a 1,000 calorie deficit eating about 1720/day and exercising regularly. I'm currently doing the 30 day ab challenge as well as Insanity fast and furious most nights. However, after 2 weeks solid of doing this I did my ab challenge and when it…

My progress in 2 weeks (pics)
Hi All! I joined this brilliant community about 2 weeks ago, since getting on the scales and realizing I was heavier than I've ever been! Since that day I resolved to lose weight by sticking to a Kcal of 1720 (my maintenance is a whopping 2600!) and exercising daily via 30 day ab challenge and attempting as much of…

Recommended workout DVDs?
Hey all, Diet is currently going amazing, lost 5Kgs in 2 weeks but looking for something to push it up a notch, currently doing the 30 day ab challenge and nearly a week through that but I'm on the lookout for a good 15-20min workout DVD.

Father of one getting his spare time back!
As the title says, first child is now starting to actually sleep (huzzah!) so I can get back in shape! I'd really appreciate some adds from UK MFPers! I'm quite sedentary, so eating right is my main method of control although I do walk about 4 miles a day to and from work. Set myself a 1,100kcal deficit which I'm achieving…

How to tell when you're full?!
This may sound like the dumbest question ever, but I've always been raised "clear your plate" "It's rude not to finish your meal", and I can't apply these ideals when dieting. I was today handed a huge plate of takeaway (albeit a healthy one - pad thai), I knew I shouldnt eat it all BUT had trouble being able to identify…

being itchy while losing weight?
This may be the weirdest question I've asked in a long time and I'm sure my response would be "lol what?!" But for some reason since starting to lose weight I'm itchy like crazy! No rash or anything more of an annoying tingling feeling. Is this normal? Time to consult the quack? Regards, Matt

Cravings :@
Morning all, Wondering if anyone had any decent tips on how to keep back/ignore/wait out cravings? Been dieting hard for a few weeks, lost 3Kgs in the past week, but I woke up today with the largest of urges to stuff my face with crap, so much so I actually dreamt of bad food (shameful...) and this morning I have to…

is my calorie goal too high for my weight?
Hi all, I'm a bigger lad at about 118kgs 6ft3, been losing weight recently, my original was 120kgs. My question is I lead a fairly sedentary life, working at a computer and relaxing at home, the only real exercise I get is the 4 mile walking round trip I do each day. My current goal is 1720 which I'm finding very…

New and need some competition!
Hi all! Since becoming a father a year ago things went downhill for my personal fitness, believe it or not I went from an only-just healthy 15 stone as a well built 6ft3 fella, to 19 stone!!! At which point I threw out my chocolate dummy and decided to go healthy. I have since been eating well and exercising, but I feel to…
