Tee Total?
I'm considering going tee total as this is the only area in which I let myself down and where my goals go out of the window. I've tried drinking in moderation but alcohol effects me so quickly I find it very difficult to gauge how fast I'm getting drunk. I want to know if anyone else has had success by making this change.…

A call to all Paleo Eaters - Let's be friends!
I'm a recovering vegetarian (after 18 years) due to researching Primal eating and deciding it's the healthy way to go. With-in a couple of weeks my hunger has vanished and the scale is moving effortlessly in the right direction (body fat % too)! My carbs all come from fresh, organic fruit and veg and I only eat organic,…

20lbs or less to lose
This post is for anyone who is not hugely overweight to respond to. I'm just wondering what tips and strategies you use to help shift those last few 'vanity pounds'.

Ways to stop the cycle
I'm having a bit of an issue. I can get really into my food and exercise for about 21 days at a time and then I seem to always have a few days/week of doing nothing and over eating. I've gained and lost the same 4-5 pounds for the past 9 months. I'm obviously sabotaging myself but I can't work out why. I'm not hugely…

Max Heart Rate Question
I just worked out my max target HR (220 - age - Resting Heart Rate = Y. Y * 0.90 = X. X + RHR = Target HR). It's 176. However when I run or take part in high intensity training my HR regularly hits 198 - 202. If I try to slow down to get my HR lower I don't feel like I'm 'pushing' that hard. I can easily run with my HR at…

How will I lose weight on 1200? My BMR is only 1274
MFP states that in order to lose my desired 2lbs a week I need to eat 1200 calories per day. I have been eating this (and exercising) for 3 weeks now and don't seem to have lost any weight. I've been mostly eating back my exercise calories but not every day. Before doing this I was hardly doing any exercise and eating way…

Best Workout DVD's & websites
I thought t would be interesting to find out what DVD's and websites you rate. I've got most of Jillian Michaels DVD's and find them to be a good workout. I've also got a few of the 10 minute solution ones but find these quite easy. Website wise I'm a dedicated Bodyrocker but also think the Tone It Up girls are great. What…

Vanity pounds!
Hi I'm hoping to lose about 15lbs. I've been following a healthy eating plan with daily exercise for 2 weeks now but the weight seems to be coming off very slowly. Only around 1.5lbs so far.
