Feeling overwhelmed
HI everyone, I have a decent amount to lose, and have adjusted my diet and general activities to be more in a "fat burning" mode. However yesterday I went to the gym and they measured my weight, my measurements and pinched me with their fat pinching tweezers. My ratio is fine on my waist, it just goes a little downhill on…

Ah man, I need to exercise...
Hi everyone - I am not quite new to exercise but i am certainly a reluctant participant. I have a gym membership which i never use, and I am always full of excuses. I live in China, an\m pretty much the only non Asian person in there, let alone woman, big boobs and big bum. I get stared at a lot and i get self conscious.…

I'm back again and i am lazy.
Hi everyone (again) I joined a while back and made good progress, lost 31 lbs and then sabotaged myself and just stopped trying. I ended up in a bad relationship, a bad frame of mind and my confidence was rock bottom. I am back now, properly after a couple of years toing and froing about being healthier. I am taking up…

C25K- who's joinin me?
I start my running destiny tonight. I haven't ran in like, 15 years and even then it was horrendous, but have read the website, had a quick huff about outside and thought, just do it. I have 9 weeks of programmes to get me from nothing to 5 k, 3 times a week. So who wants to be my huffing about Internet running friends?…

This calories/exercise thing...
Hello everyone. I am looking to shed roughly 40lbs in chunk and have set myself to lose weight at roughly 1.7lbs a week. This leaves me with 1200 calories a day, which i know is the bare minimum and i must eat to that. But yesterday (my first day of being serious about this) i was a couple of hundred too low. So what to…

I'm back again, so i thought i would re introduce..
So i have disapeared for a while and then come back, for various reasons. Mainly, pride, ignorance, head in the sand etc etc. I also got into faddy diets, which didn't work, made me feel bad, etc. So i have been through the mill and not feeling too great about it. I first tried the herbalife shake diet, as lots of friends…
