Not a bad idea johanna. I'm periodically checking my waist measurement to make sure I still fit my dress.

I noticed that embarrassing bodies have a body fat calculator on their website but I'm too scared to check.

Rups32

LOL. i know they say grazing and eating little and often can help. i have tried that but have eaten more and often lol

Morning boys and girls!

How is everyone?
Good day for me yesterday, massive gym session and the only bad thing I ate was a twix. That can't be too bad surley.... Must be good today, no gym tonight!

Rups32

ah wow you are good mayfair. well done. :0)

i am waiting to go to my body pump but its at 1, and i am scared i will be hungry before that and end up eating lunch etc.. grrr.. so got myself some carrots with humus (sp??). lol. i am proud of the fact that i tried a run yesterday and managed to do some ab work on the grass in the park, and my abs hurt today. yay..:0)

I've just found a very good website for checking BMI, body fat %, basal metabolic rate etc: http://www.dietandfitnesstoday.com/
One of the best things is that you can enter measurements in metric or imperial, including your weight in kgs, lbs or stones & lbs. I hate having to convert stuff all the time!

I've done all the calculations for my current measurements and my intended/hoped-for measurements to check that my goals are realistic.

You know it's working when it's hurting well done! Love humus but cant seem to put it down once i start lol. Do you do any other classes? I still haven't got the balls to try any classes yet!

thanks for that sapphire. will play around with it for sure!

thanks mayfair. its my abs that i want to go and i can at least deal with my big hips..:0( my brother's ex put a picture of her recently worked out abs and i was sooo jealous, as she is soo flat, PLUS she has had 2 kids.. grrr. so i mailed her and asked her what she does, and she said she does ab work every single day and she does three different types of crunches and does 20 set of each. hmm i did abs yest, and we do some after bodypump before we finish the class, and so i will do my won tomorrow. it only takes ten mins doesnt it? lol

just stuffed my face with carrot sticks and humous. yum. and a banana. oops. my class starts at one so didnt want to go in there starving. :0) do u use the gym lots then? i prefer classes as get bored in the gym. so far am trying to do on a regular basis: body attack (new class), body pump, and step, and running if i can every week. Kung fu on saturdays! :0)

Managed a gym session, but only cardio because my shoulder hurt when I was doing brunches so I didnt want to mess it all up with weights, and some inconsiderate person had scheduled a lunchtime meeting. Grrrr.
