It's Friday Night (In Australia) what's everyone's plans?
I'm at home with 3 kids and a husband who insists I exercise and lose weight but won't do it for himself. Today he's tired and he just wants to sit around and watch TV. *sigh* Can I live vicariously through someone actually doing something fun tonight? Pretty please??

Hungry!
So I'm eating a 1840cals but the last couple of days I've been ridiculously hungry. I don't know if it's because I've increased my exercise from nothing to 3+ times a week or if it's just a TOM thing (arriving shortly). I just worked out my TDEE etc again and I'm eating around -30% already (and I don't eat back exercise…

OUCH!
Are squats, lunges, dips and push ups supposed to hurt for days after? I've been pushing them pretty hard in my circuit routines and even having done them 2 days ago now, my biceps, triceps, thighs and calves are in total agony! It's like I've stuffed rocks under my skin! Any tips on how I can get over it quicker? Maybe…

HRM Vs FitBit Vs Body Media - Which is best?
Hi all, I'm in the market for a HRM and wanted some advice about which would be the best for me.

Emotional Eating
Started out having an awesome day, full of energy, motivation and joy. Had a huge disagreement with my hubby and ended up spending the afternoon in tears and eating my kids chocolate easter eggs. I'm going to go over my cal intake for the day, because I don't believe in skipping meals (but I'll still be under my TDEE which…

Any triathletes or budding triathletes out there?
I did my first mini tri last year (200m swim/10km bike/ 2km run) which I did in 1.05 (I was 100kg/220 pounds) and wanted to see if anyone had any training or race day pointers they could share with me for this year (tri is in Nov). If I can get fit enough, I really want to do a few more mini tri's and then branch out and…

Help!
Hi all, just wondering how I would add an exercise DVD to my exercise tracker? I have the Michelle Bridges Crunch Time 3 pack of DVDs (Tight, Toned, Terrific/Super Shredder Circuit/Seek & Destroy Cardio Kicker), but I have no idea how to add them or even if they are already in the database (as I can't seem to find them!) I…

Breakfasts (Clean eating or close to)
Hey all, just realised today that what I eat for breakfast is way too much! I never realised that wholegrain bread had so many calories! Anyhow I wanted some easy breakfast ideas. I have 3 kids so the mornings before school are crazy hectic and I am always starving when I wake up so have to eat right away, which means that…

Climbing out of the rut...
Hi all! Here I am, at attempt #....... (I've lost count) to lose weight. I've done so many different diets, most of which I've lost weight on, but ultimately I put it all back on, plus some. I have 3 kids and have progressively put on weight after each of them. I started clean eating and training for a mini women's…
