"well i did what i said i wouldnt do yesterday and hopped on the scales again today.. needless to say i think i broke them cos they are just telling me stupid things " There is no point weighing yourself every day. Your weight fluctuates over the week, especially during TOTM. Weigh yourself once a week, on the same scales, preferably naked or wearing the same clothes, first thing in the morning, after your first wee. And don't stress so much! Weightloss is not linear. As long as its trending down, and your clothes are getting looser, that's all that matters. | |||

"I need motivation to join the gym. " Even if the gym isn't what you're motivated towards, you can use other means to get fit. Give yourself a goal of what you want to achieve and what time frame you would like to do it in. So it could be tone up, increase strength or trim down. Start simple with a fitness app like freeletics, it will give you daily exercises to follow for your aim. Accompany that with, shuttle runs, a Jog or some cycling and you should start to see a difference in approximately 4 weeks. | |||

I only have carbs with my breakfast on a normal diet, so I'll probably have a pasta meal the night before, but not load like I did for the half marathons I did. | |||

"Finally something positive to post on this thread! After 4 runs in 5 weeks due to an injury and then a horrid cold that lingered on my chest for 2 weeks, I ran a 10 miler today. Had low expectations and clocked a near 4 minute PB, granted my 10PB was always the softest but still well chuffed with that, and undulating course and certainly wan't on my limit and a comfortable mid pack finish. Back on track for Brighton!" Well done. I'm no where near ready for running any races at the moment. I'm concentrating on building up my endurance with the long runs, and then do a few races in March before Brighton. Just trying to stay clear of injury, as i have the determination to put the work in, i just worry that i will pick up an injury. | |||

"Finally something positive to post on this thread! After 4 runs in 5 weeks due to an injury and then a horrid cold that lingered on my chest for 2 weeks, I ran a 10 miler today. Had low expectations and clocked a near 4 minute PB, granted my 10PB was always the softest but still well chuffed with that, and undulating course and certainly wan't on my limit and a comfortable mid pack finish. Back on track for Brighton! Well done. I'm no where near ready for running any races at the moment. I'm concentrating on building up my endurance with the long runs, and then do a few races in March before Brighton. Just trying to stay clear of injury, as i have the determination to put the work in, i just worry that i will pick up an injury. I probably do more races than I should although some I run to a schedule rather than chase a time. Another 6 miles last night and for the first time this year I actually felt good riding to work I must admit the miles you are doing would kill me, I'll max out at around 35 a week in march" The miles isn't really a problem for me as i have regularly running 30-40 miles for the last year, it's more the cumulative effect of running the faster runs when im feeling tired. The weekend 2 runs are the worst because i have a tough session on the saturday, followed by my long run, so i could have 9 miles in my legs from Saturday when i start my long run on the sunday. But i guess it's all good practise for when i get to 20 miles in the marathon. | |||

Ive not done my measurements but really should.. My feet have shrunk though.. im back into a size 5 shoe instead of a 6 | |||

"Weighed yesterday and lost 3lbs this week - giving up crisps altogether (I think I had a salt addiction) and less carbs more protein seems to be working. Walking lots more and got an appointment to join a new gym on Sunday. Anyone used any of those exercise apps for a mobile ? Found any of them worthwhile ? Sarah " Salt retains a lot of water so reducing salt does help but if your exercising you need an amount of salt for muscle repair and to prevent cramps. So we need salt just in the right amounts. If I have a meal out (often high in salt) I can put on 2 lbs over night x | |||

"I've been doing great since New Year and I'm 2lbs away from losing a stone but now it's nearly 'that' week and my cravings are mad. Been eating too much the last couple of days, not unhealthy things but still going to affect my weight loss. Really shouldn't have watched Bake Off!" I was like that last week you kind of just have to work through it | |||

"just checking in with everyone to see how your all doing? my average steps each day for this week is 5000. Not much in comparison to the average fit n healthy person but i'm 28 stone n have mobility issues. Feeling very chuffed with myself considering before xmas i was only doing on average 1000. Last week i averaged at 3000, and this week im up to 5000. Its all about small changes. The weathers been bad but still decided to go for a stomp around a local leisure park and then all along the beach. Been great fun actually Went into a family friendly pub/bar and ordered a beef burger with no chips, and went of the idea by the time t arrived so only ate 1/4.. " I flaming love walking I'm not into hiking or anything but can walk for miles its a new activity I enjoy, considering im was out of breath going up the street. Keep on concentrating on all the little changes, it doesn't matter what others can do. I thought it was a brilliant achievement the day I realised I was sat with my legs crossed I'd never been able to do!that before. | |||

" oh thats something that happened today.. at the leisure park the indoor seating for the playzone is what i can only describe as plastic garden chairs, because they have arms on them i could never fit in the as my arse/hips were too big. Today it was a squeeze but not totally uncomfortable | |||

Today it was a squeeze but not totally uncomfortable " you see, little changes happening all the while and sometimes you dont notice, I notice when I want to squeeze by someone sitting down they just move their legs rather than having to stand up. I didn't do it but have you thought of starting a journal. I wish I had now. So I know everything. I logged into my fitness pal, last time it showed I logged on I was 18 stome. But I can't remember a lot of things changing | |||

" That is a bit of a trek, so I don't blame you but it's really good for you. A friend with mobility problems and very poor muscle tone due to crash diets used to do it and loved it x | |||
