I've hit Onederland!!! - with pics
The 1st of November 2012. The day I started my new life. I have always struggled with my weight. Not that I was a fat child, I was always active enough to keep the extra pounds at bay but my problem since hitting my late teens and early twenties was that I just love food and learned to hate exercise. I picked up a 60 a day…

Four days a week in the gym (about an hour and a half of treadmill, cross trainer and a little weight lifting), 1 day doing Karate (just started), and do some swimming (about 3/4 mile) and bike riding (about 8-10 miles) on the…

Sorry, but need to ask about bowel movements
Up until about three weeks ago all was fine. I started to up my exercise from 3 days a week to 6 days a week. It is a combination of C25K, crosstrainer, a bit of weight lifting and beginners Karate. Since starting on this I used had a BM every day (2 before I started) but for the last couple of weeks it is either every…

What sort of weight training
Hi, Hope some you can help me with this, I started doing mainly cardio (cross trainer, treadmill) and have recently added some minor weight training (if you can call it that). I'm trying to tone my abs and pecs as I have a bit of flab and small man boobs from losing over 60 lbs. Not a lot but enough that I need to tighten…

Lost weight but increased BF%...???
Hi, As you can see below I have lost 3 pounds this week but increased by BF%. It has never increased in the three months since I started losing weight (and I've lost weight each week). Started doing some crunches this week which probably accounts for the big drop in waist inches (measure across my belly button but averaged…

Finally made FOUR STONE today (and a bit more). That's over 56lbs for the non English members of the site. Only four more stone to go to my final goal of 210lbs and 17lbs to my next goal of 255lbs. BF% is down, BMI down, waist and neck size down, LBM at about 185 and I feel great. I suppose it's time to start posting…

Too Much Water?
Is it possible to be drinking too much water? Recently I have upped my water intake but seem to be losing less of it during the day. I do some form exercise everyday (gym or swimming with the last two days being swimming) and always stay either at or just below my recommended calorie intake (not counting the additional…

First Fifty
Hit my first 50lbs lost today. Been dieting since 1 November and wanted to lose 70 by June. I can't believe how fast it is coming off. Not doing any fad diet, just eating less and exercising more. Still want to lose the 70 but am now hoping to lose another 50 by June. Fingers crossed. :wink:

Getting there...!
Hi, My name is Ed and I started my new life on the first of Nov 2012 weighing in at 330lbs. I saw some photos of myself that were taken on holiday in the States and couldn't believe I allowed myself to get that big. What was really embarrassing was having to ask for a seat belt extension on the airplane and not being able…
