If she does it it will kill her.

Thank you IrishMum!!! At least I know it is possible. I think I will try slowing down overall and jogging every second cycle. I am running outdoors - no gym membership at the mo and I thought the fresh air would help. The route I tried was quite hilly as well - I should probably have aimed to...

Your bf is correct Winter - muscle tissue burns more calories than fat at rest - but remember it also weighs more that fat tissue - i would recommend taking your measurements and going by that if you plan to tone up a lot rather than just watching the scales (which might be disappointing if you...

Hi Sorry to the existing C25K thread - I just think you are doing so well and so ahead of me - thought I'd start a new thread for the beginners. Perhaps you can visit and offer some valuable words of wisdom :D I did W1D1 last night :eek:- and will be stuck at this level for quite some time...

What is it?

Oh dear - I sort of crashed and burned with diet and execise this weekend :0( My daughter turned four on Sat and there was lots of junk food (outing to BK did not help) and my family came round on Sat night and had take away ... and wine .... and crisps ... and birthday cake. And more of the...

Meeee! Lets do it! :0)

Sorry Woodsylou - looking forward to you joining us next time!! Let us know when you make the purchase x o

Oh yeah!!! Just what I need to get back into it!!! I'll play!!! Thanks has2tri!!!:D Should we start a new thread for the challenge - do you want to do the honours?

I have both wii fit and EA Sports. EA sports is more serious and gives you a much better workout - the calories burnt are about the same but you feel more like you have been doing something on EA.

Woodsylou - its about £25-30 for the game and it comes with the stuff you need - a strap for around your leg for the nunchuck and resistance bands. I will say - I have fallen off the wagon with 30 day challenge - but did lots of physical work in the garden at the weekend so not feeling too...

A tub with a portion of Alpen in (tea break - I never have time for breakfast) and may be some fruit. For lunch cup-a-soup, ryvitaa with tuna paste and soem carrots or celery.

I love the boxing!!! I was a bit lazy over the weekend and I think EA Sports is trying to punish me!! Ow ow ow!!

There are some online calculators which would tell you for your weight and height how many calories you should aim for a set target. I'm new and I don't think i am allowed to post links yet - but try googling "free weight loss calculator" or something similar. Good luck

Hi all Judi - thanks for the inspiration I missed my workout yesterday but back into it today - my three year old was copying the whole workout so that kept me going too! Poppy - I think I may try a tighter resistance band too. Esp for the bent over rows - it just hurts my thighs standing...

Congraulations - what a great achievement!!

Hi judimac I have had wii fit for a couple of weeks and bought ea sports on wed and have just started the 30 day challenge! I am really enjoying reading your your diary because you have so much enthusiasm and a witty turn of phrase (and you are keeping my hope alive that I will stop hating...

Its great if you have not excercised before or are out of shape. And you change excerises quickly so if you don't like one excerise you know you dont have long before you move on. I go for a one month membership every now and again to shape up a bit. I can't really afford to go all the time -...

Hi all Thanks to you all for the warm welcome and supportive words. Becky - nice to meet a fellow wii fan!! My faves are boxing and hula hoop. I find the yoga and muscle training quite hard at the moment - not sure if I will ever be able to do "tree" or "jackknife" (I just do crunches...

Hi all Was just wondering if anyone here was using Wii fit or EA Sports Active as all or part of their excerise regime and how it was going. I'm using EA Sports right now following two weeks wii fit - started the 30 day challenge yesterday and it seems to be easier to get us sweat than...

Wine is my downfall. And (naughty, very naughty) I sometime skip snacks in the day so I still have enough calories left for wine! someone tell me off please .....

Hi Isa here.. Just Under 15st 5ft 4 and on a mission!! Going to count calories (using a free online food diary -*****- am I allowed to post that here? - please edit me if not) and use Wii fit + EA sports active + walking for exercise. Looking forward to the challenge and meeting you...
