Hoodia Pills?
Has anybody tried these? I know some people swear by them. They're completely natural according to the Holland & Barrett site. Wondering if they're worth the investment...

Running NSV
Just to start this off I opitimise a running hater. I have never ran. Even at what I considered my 'peak' (16 yrs old, size 8-10, gym for 1.5hrs a week x3) I never set foot on a treadmill. I just wasn't programmed to run. Whatever. Anyway, 12-14 weeks of solid working out regularly and eating healthily (and that doesn't…

Alkaline Water - Thoughts/Experiences?
So a couple of days ago I read that Beyonce insists on Alkaline water in her rider, and today when I was sunbathing (finally nice weather here!), I noticed the bottled water I was drinking, Saka, was labelled as Alkaline water. It got me wondering what, if any, people consider the benefits to alkaline water vs. plain water…

So I've just done Day 1 30DS Level 2...
...and I think I'm gonna puke. I actually managed to make it all the way through with only about 4 5second pauses - no actual pausing of the DVD. Does this seriously get easier!!? I thought I was getting tough when I mastered level 1 but GEEZ!!! The plank jump stuff kills me!!!

30 Day Squat Challenge
I'm so sorry I didn't take before pictures! I will definitely take after pics once I'm done :) I just wanted to say that you ALL need to get on this! I'm on Day 17 (150 squats) - my butt has changed soooooooo much! It feels like it's moved up by about a foot! And what's more, it's so round - but in an amazing way! It's…

The 30 (+1) Day Ab Challenge
Hi Everyone, So I'm really enjoying doing the squat challenge alongside my other exercise, and because there's a new goal to reach every day I am sticking to it completely - I even got out of bed at 11pm yesterday once I realised I hadn't done my 80 squats for the day! So I thought I'd start the Ab Challenge too! Who's…

Will going over my sugar allowance prevent weight loss?
Okay, so it's only ten to 11 and I'm -1 on my sugar allowance. I've had a large orange and a small costa cappucino w/ skimmed milk and NO sugar. Really? Is this going to halt/severely slow down my weight loss?

Juice Master Delivered
Hello Everyone! :) Just wondering if anyone had tried this? Thinking about doing it the week before my summer holiday (beginning of June). I'm less concerned with the actual weight loss from this, and more if it leans you out, flushes out the bad stuff! Although please post your lb loss if you achieved any too! Here's the…

Net Calorie Question - Big Time Confused! Please Help!
Okay, so I set my goals today. I'm 5ft 4, 160 pounds and will be working out 5 times a week at 30 mins each time. I want to lose 2 pounds a week. BUT MFP set my cals at 1200 (I understand this is the minimum the site allows), in combination with exercise it predicts that I will lose 1.3 pounds a week. But I want to aim for…

Major Stitch Problem!
So every time I run I get a massive stitch in what feels like my right rib after about 4-5 minutes. I can't stand it, it makes me feel so nauseous and hurts so much when I breathe in, if I just try and push past it I literally have to stop because I feel dizzy with nausea. Does anything in particular cause stitches? Is…

I LOVE water!!!
Slightly random post but I just wanted to say how much water has helped me! In my previous attempts to lose weight I've often ignored the 'drink plenty of water thing' and concentrated on food. But around 3 weeks ago I slowly started adding more and more water to my diet - I average around 3 litres a day now (I used to be…

The non-hormonal version of the pill?
Hi Everyone, So after being on Microgynon way back when I was 16-18 (I'm about to turn 22) I switched to the Implanon when I was 18. I'm pretty sure this has been a killer for me weight wise - my appetite soared and so did my weight (I'm a UK 14 now compared to a size 10 when I started uni). I'm due to get the Implanon…
