WOW - congrats!!!! That is SOOOOO amazing. And who counts second, he he he. I think you should just be sooooooo proud of yourself - you deserve it. Looking forward to here about next time ;)

Just want to say good luck - and I am looking forward to hear more about your story. It's always great to share, and we are here for you!

Had a really great run tonight: I thought my legs was to sore to run so it feels like I was close to giving up - but in the end I noticed that I had cut 1 1/4 min of the 3km :bunnydance: That was almost 25 sec per kilometer. Made me smile big times! Hope you are all having a brilliant evening...

Well done! It always feels impressive when it goes better than expected ;-) Such an amazing feeling, make sure to remember it for the less great days. He he, and just remember, pain goes away after a while ;)

Week 6: Haven't been that active writing lately, but I have kept up the running, which I'm happy with. I'm still doing 2 runs for 3 km each week - not much, but it sure feels great :) I am still just amazingly happy that I managed to run the 3km without stopping or walking as part of the tour...

Hi Theonlybonster, No, the thread is not dead yet, I have just been off-the-net for a little while ;-) Soooooo brilliant for you, well done! You should be amazingly proud of yourself. All beginning is hard, but just imagine with all the potential how much you can improve in just a few weeks. So...

Wow - congrats! That is amazing. So glad to hear :woohoo:

Well done, Jules. That is a major project you have started there, but I love the way that you have set the goals! I will cross my fingers for your - and keep an eye on this thread. I go for around 1/2 lb a week as I want to take it slow... The starving-feeling days are so difficult to avoid, but...

I think your husband must be very wise ;) I love the heart rate measure on my new watch - even though at the moment I only use it to keep an eye on the level. But I will try to find out more as I think that could be helpful for getting better at some point.

Week 3: This has been a great week. I managed to do my three runs as I was hoping for (yahoo). One for 1,5km, one for 2 km and finally first one for 3km. Haven't run that fare for more than a year, so feeling really good about myself :woohoo: Next two weeks I will try stay on the same 3k route...

He he, I also find it quite difficult to stop trying out the scale once in a while ;) Well done for sticking to the diet - that is a great weight-loss so fare! Congrats :0clapper:

So this week has been really bad on a personal level (all ok now though): but I have done absolute zero running! Oh dear, my goal for August is just getting closer and closer.... However, I have really not been up for running. But at least I have done two bike-trips for 30km each, so I don't...

Well done - amazing time! You are almost ready for the race - and October is still quite a bit away :-) Go for it!

Hi Lizs, Thanks for your brilliant support. Yes, I tried couch to 5k-training program 1 1/2 year ago (not NHS but something very similar). Loved it - and that was the first time ever I was able to run 5k without walking between. However - even thought I know it is best for me - I just don't have...

What a great reason to get motivated for a diet :-) All the best of luck to you

Hi Jackie and Loops, How are things going for both of you? Still sticking to the 5:2? I have done it for almost two years - however, not being hysterical and thereby only doing it 9-10 month each year (taking holidays off). And it works perfectly fine for me - weight going down very slowly, but...

Sorry about your leg - hope it is getting better soon. Well done - you should definitely feel pleased with yourself. Thumbs Up from me ;)

First week and first 2 run done, jubbbiiiii. I even notice myself smiling during the first run when the sun came up - that most be a good sign :worthy: Well, I did write 'run', however for normal runners it was properly closer to 'fast walking' (without comparing that to 'race walking'). But the...

Wow - that sounds amazing Lizs. You are very close to the 30 min :-) My personal best is around 38 min, and that is a while ago. Let me know how you progress with the 10k training :whacky068:

Three great days so fare - well done! Hope today was another great day and you managed to fit in the exercise. Don't worry too much about the coffee, I'm sure that you can work on cutting it down another time. Just really impressed about you managing the other task. So go go go ....:whacky068:

Wow - sounds brilliant. Good luck, I will cross my fingers for you :character00116:

I read somewhere that not everyone can run 5km in 30 min - and I believe they are right. However, I am also really, really stubborn so I really would like to try to get there. Now, I have never really done much running - and due to vacation (and a million other excuses) I haven't done any...

Well done - and good luck :-) Looking forward to keep an eye on your progress (and get inspired ;-) )

Would love to join too - good luck all Cans1983 - 15 hours to do Janey2014 - 10 hours to do *joanne* - 6 hours to do phoenyx - 100 miles to do carrot_tit - 20 hours to do gina_b - 100 miles to do Blowfish - 20 hours to do

So all starting really well. First day motivation is always high - and as I am not really following a specific diet I just feel great about all the healthy options I have gone for. Let see if it will later turn out to be a bad idea not having a special diet :devilangel: Motivation: fit into a...

A friend of mine convinced me to try this 'system' where you try to be really healthy for 10 days and relax for 4 days. That means, you should not follow any specific diet but be really good with food and training for 10 days and then not really think about it for 4 days (however, not completely...

Good luck - looking forward to read about your progress :)

Sounds like I should try out the body combat - I just love it when a new program starts :superwoman:

So I was at the release of pump and flow on Saturday - LOVED it! Thanks for the tip on the extra weight for the pump track - the was worth it. And loved the new more rocky music. the flow-class was also much better than last time - mover power. Yahoooo - it is going to be a great spring...

For what it is worth; I'm still impressed. Just the fact that you keep considering both excersice, diet and writting in here - that means that you are still hanging in there. And we all need a few days break once in a while. Good luck with the weekend.

Can't wait! Unfortunately I am still no 14 on the waiting list for the release of both pump and and flow for this Saturday. Crossing my fingers for people cancelling :-) Thanks for the tip on the extra weighs - I will let you know how it goes.

New program starting in my gym next week - very much looking forward to it. Anyone had a sneak peek yet?

I'm with you for another month - with the zumba coming out I am sure we will all do great :character00116: However, I am going to be less ambitious this time around and go for 10 hours. Miss Mango: 20 hours - 0 done Blowfish: 10 hours - 0 done

Still doing great - impressive. Almost time to think about the next challenge :party0049: With all the energy you are getting from this I am sure you will do great. Good luck to everyone weighing in tomorrow :cross:

Sorry for being quiet lately. Haven't used my wii much but have been running every second day. So feel really good ;) Did a little today but I am fare from the goal. Thanks, Owls4eva, for keeping us going. Amanda, hope you are up for a great week next week. Phunkie, I udated your time. Miss...

Hi Lift, Flu-like often mean that your are now close to be all detoxed and healthy so take it at as a good sign (I hope). Wow, 22 days and still working hard. Good for you - and for all us following you. That is SOOO impressive :) Cheers

Thanks, Thompsonk. Unfortunately no classes around where I am living but I will try the 7 days free food suggestion on the homepage and see where that will take me

Sorry to hear that you are not feeling on the top at the moment :patback: We all have those days but hopefully you will get more positive soon. Just know that we are all here for you - anytime.

Great step starting to love the exercise and thinking about new future goals. Always lovely to dream - especially when it is a dream that can come true. Maybe I should try the challenge of not drinking for two weeks, sounds like hard work :party0016:... LOL maybe not! Good luck.

I know this is an old discussion but just feel like adding a comment: I am using Q10 and from experience I found that it helps me lose weight. So I am now taking it every day and normally 60mg. I have since tried to investigate a few more details and what I have found out is that Q10 will...

Fantastic KD. Now, everytime I want to snack it will take me back to my old piano-classes. So maybe Fred and I can be best frieds after all :cool:

Back for a quick read of how things are going - and I am really impressed. 20% of the time gone and you are still working hard :talk017: I love that you are focusing on more exercise and better food instead of weight. So well done - and good luck with the next 40 days.

I'm considering slimming world (based on recommendation from others in here). But looking at there homepage I am still confused about how it works. Any advice for how to get started?

I tried the body jam and body attack a few times as well and loved both. However, the time just don't fit into my other training, so will have to get back to them later.

I love the concept of rewarding. So good luck with your 50 days challenge with a rewarding get-away-visit-friends in the end. I am looking forward to pop in here once in a while and follow your good work. All the best of luck :bliss:

Especially love the body pump and body balance classes, but do also attend some of the others once in a while. Big fan!

Hi all, I just joined this page today. After years of non-serious dieting where I thought I could do it best on my own I have now finally decided that there are a better success rate if I share it with all of you. So hopefully we can all together make the world a lighter place :-) Haven't...
