I always used to weight every day, but decided to try once a week as I've always heard that's recommended. Not sure how long I will last before I go back to every morning though!
got2doit - I think after the first couple of weeks I was finding face paced walking easier, and not feeling as if I was about to die! I have been increasing the duration and speed of the walking since then, and since the beginning of July noticed that walking as fast as I could before I would be running, for an hour and a half, was getting to easy! I think that stalled my weight loss a bit as I wasn't working as hard as I was when heavier/less fit, so moved onto jogging. I was starting from pretty much zero exercise and very very overweight though! Good news you are feeling a difference all ready, losing that bloaty stomach feeling is great! Hope you enjoy your dog walk.
Camplestar - love the panto camel, sounds like great fun, and if you are dancing about in a hot suit for three hours will burn lots of calories!
Garage cleared of all boxes now, I must have burnt hundreds of calories in terror of the giant spiders hiding in all the cardboard

I always aimed to be pushing myself to a speed where I was a bit out of breath but could still hold a conversation, as that seemed to be around a heart rate of 130 bpm, so perfect for calorie burning, and as I got fitter made me walk faster and longer to get to the same point!
I am really bad with spiders, the neighbours must have thought OH was trying to kill me in the garage the amount of times I screamed as a spider attacked!

Ok ill give it a go tomorrow, ill set myself an hour to get down to the end of the fields then back home, normally takes me an hour and half. Then shorten that time when need to.
Im the same with spiders so I totally understand lol I remember last year when I had taken down the halloween decorations I noticed a spider on my curtain n just thought it was a fake one, luckily it started to move before I went to grab it or I think I would have had a heart attack. Still makes my skin crawl. X

I'm with you all on spiders. I bet we could run faster and further if we were being chased by spiders. I'm allergic to horses and was,going for a walk one day when one came out of next door and started following me, I have never run so fast in my life and kept running until I was well out of the way x
