Will a fitbit work with Ubuntu?
Considering buying a fitbit. However, my laptop runs Ubuntu, not Windows. Is that likely to be a problem? It won't be much use if I can't sync it with MFP !

I cycle/walk everywhere-is this compatible with Stronglifts?
I'm thinking of starting Stronglifts to preserve muscle mass - I've lost about a third of my excess weight, so quite a lot to go. I'm generally active simply because I cycle or walk everywhere (including hauling children and groceries in the trike in my avatar, although I do have a normal bike too) I also enjoy the odd bit…

Considering trying out a lifting programme
Right, I've seen a lot of advice floating around that lifting is a good thing to preserve muscle while you're losing weight. This sounds good to me. I already walk and cycle a fair bit, but could do with adding something else now my youngest is starting school. I've got a copy of new rules of lifting for women and I'm also…

My theory is how bad can they be under a mound of Quorn bolognaise, plus I can wheel them out when my gluten intolerant friend…

Mum of 2, 38, looking to lose 100lb, needs friends :)
Hello, just reaching out for a small circle of support. I log in regularly. I'm a houseparent, pretty active and have been for a while (5km total walking and cycling a day on the school run) and adding in a few exercise classes now. I just like good food too much :)

Cargo trike mum says Hi!
Thought I should say hello :) I'm a 38yr old mum of two with well over 100lb to lose. I'm finding all the success stories on here very inspiring and I hope to do well, one small step at a time. My weaknesses are chocolate and buttered toast, but I am pretty active for a fat girl - the boys' school is about 1km away and I…
