Hi Bunblebeaz,

Good luck with your goals - I like the way you've put your fitness measurement, as it's a good way to assess how you're doing. You're relatively close to your fitness goal already - shouldn't be long!

Hope you have a great week.

Lowcal :-)

Thanks! I speed the treadmill up gradually, it'll take a couple of weeks, and then I can readjust my goal. Ultimately I'm aiming for forces fitness which for my age group is 1.5 miles in 13 min 50 sec

Hi bundlebeaz,

Best laid plans of mice and men, eh?

And you're still riding the weight loss bus - such commitment, well done indeed.

Actually, I've found maintaining my healthy weight (at the top of the healthy range) quite achievable. Though I do keep a close eye on it as I have no intention whatsover of going back to the weight I was, or of getting back into my former daft and unhealthly eating habits.

Good luck with your ongoing weight loss efforts.

Thank you! after having 6 weeks off I thought I'd have put on more than I did, so am happy. For me it'd be too easy to let crap food sneak back in as soon as I hit bmi25 and then I'd be overweight again, plus the weight I'd like to be puts me somewhere around the middle of the normal sector.
