    Gosh. I've been having 0% greek yogurt for the past week and a bit, and today I had full fat - you can seriously taste the difference. The full fat tastes like double cream! It also made me really full before I'd even finished it.

    Shame there is so many calories in it.

    But then, I don't count calories :rotfl:

    i switched over to the full fat one, it keeps me full for so long, i just reduced the rest of my lunch portion size to adjust the calories

    i think it is my fav food, totally nom nom nom and it keeps me full for so long :)

    I saw a machine in Boots this evening. For 70p it'll measure weight, height, BMI and Bodyfat. What do you think? Would it be accurate? I'd love to know what my [STRIKE]belly[/STRIKE]body fat is ;)

    there super-sized versions of the ones you can buy, they should be pretty accurate mine claim to be +/- 2% and the bodpod confirmed this

    im claiming another STS FS ....

    Awesome on the pb Eric. BTW in my opinion running on the treadmill is MUCH MUCH harder than running outdoors. A topic myself and husband will argue until the cows come home.

    You are doing what I deem proper running at that pace. What a great achievement. When I was 16stone (after my uni days) it would take me 45 mins to run the 5k, I would get overtaken by power walkers!

    mine probably is as its a semi pro one its set at 2% incline to overcome the slight advantage you get from the belt

    never tried a 5K for real so cant compare it lol, maybe ill risk my knees if i get to goal

    watching BOLT atm on anytime, such a cute film lol

    My yoghurt of choice is mullerlight. Always buy the packs. Wondering now if I should try some full fat yoghurt.

    Fred - reporting another STSThank you :A Not sure about this months challenge as still off exercise with this stupid cough :( So think I might just have to give august a miss :mad:


    I know what you mean - I am missing it soooooo much I am going stir crazy :mad:



    I agree stretching before and after running helps with this pain, I expect it is just your legs getting used to using muscles that are not normally usually used. It will become easier.



    I'm glad you said this Trigirl as I feel running on the treadmill so much more hardwork I think it has something to do with the slight cadence outside and also the cool breeze that keeps you from overheating.
    As I did my RFL 5km in 27 min would you class me as a runner too ?? :D If so I would be chuffed to bits :o

    Well done on all the big losses this week everyone :T

    For what it is worth, yes I would! I think as soon as you start hitting under 30s for the 5k you can consider yourself a RUNNER!!!!
