Would anyone like to make a workout schedule for me???
Hey there! So i'm new to the gym (and a chinese gym at that). I want to do a good mix of weights and cardio but im not really sure what I should be doing and how I should do it. I'm thinking weights 3 times a week with some cardio after (spin class or threadmill) and then another spin class on my 2 cardio days. I love the…

CHINA....makes you gain or lose weight?!....
Having already lost about 30 lbs, when I first knew I was coming to China... I thought I would either come home looking skinny and healthy...or big and fat! Im definitely leaning more towards the second option now.... I joined the gym a couple of months before I was due to go to China for 6 months, though I didnt feel like…

Ive lost the majority of the weight that I wanted to lose, though I would love to lose those stubborn last 10lbs. An thats where I thought the gym could help. My problem is not knowing the best way to…

Think its time to acknowledge my progress :)
I'm not really the kind of person who posts before and after pics, mainly because I didn't take any but also because I don't think that I ever thought I would get to the stage where I felt like I had actually accomplished something with my weight. It all seemed unreachable. But after looking through many old photo albums…

What do I do now?
Ok so I think its gotten to that time where I need to just take a step back, look at the progress ive made so far and decide where I go from here... before I start getting frustrated with everything (including the scale) and end up falling back into old habits. I joined MFP in march weighing in at 179lbs and 5"7 (196 being…

Eating whatever you like???
I was just wondering... do you allow yourself to eat whatever foods you want as long as its within your calorie allowance?? Im almost always under my calorie goal (just slightly) each day, and never really go over my other food group allowances either. In the last few days ive been having a sneaky chocolate biscuit here…
