would you join?
I am helping a friend to promote his park fitness classes and he is struggling for a catchy name, his target group is aged over 30 and not gym confident, I have suggested lumpy ladies he thinks it is a bit rude what do you think? Would it put you off going just because of what it is called?

Sugar Intake
Right this is now driving me insane, I have been watching my sugar intake each day and it makes grim reading I go over by 150% each day and I do not have any treats like chocolate and so on. In the morning I will have a banana with breakfast and an apple with lunch and my daily intake is gone. Surely this can not be right,…

Winter exercise
would I be right in saying that if you exercise in the cold you burn less than in doors in the warm as your body needs to be able to warm up to burn calories or does it not matter

I'm addicted

Fruit
Right now I'm feeling a bit hard done by on all this as I eat alot of fruit and I'm being hit hard for it.

So I put it to you the MFP public to say yay or nay to me adding it in future but…
