I really need to start being healthier. I am not overweight, but am a bit flabby on parts. I am almost fully recovered from binge eating disorder and am intent on being healthy.

I have bought a new pair of running shoes. Did 2 miles today! (then ate lots of cake Blush). Will be starting tomorrow. Also want to cut down on meat intake a bit, and processed foods. So basically eat healthy and exercise more.

Will log a daily food and exercise diary. Anyone care to join me??

Hi ByeBye, Monday it is then Smile

I'm starting tomorrow as it is the end of a week, my usual weigh day and 8 weeks til Xmas.

I will be running a lot more (usually manage 2.5 miles once a week). Will also get to doing yoga, Pilates, skipping rope, small weights etc, along with just generally changing my diet and creating healthier habits.

Hi Pancake! Thanks for joining and well done on the weight loss Smile Due to my BED I've just kept gaining and gaining for a while. Would ideally like to lose a stone altogether, and hopefully the first 7lbs by Xmas.
My eating habits aren't great right now, but have done a shop, bought a slow cooker and loads of healthy food so should improve.

I'm aiming for 3 miles tomorrow. I also use dd's (14) sports skipping rope a lot Grin. Hoping to tone up too.

I'll join you Monday. My weight is fine but I'm eating crap and dint feel good.

What exercise will you be doing? I was thinking of giving 5:2 a go.

Are you my subconscious talking?

I will join you.

I am not overweight but will be if this continues.
I want to get rid of half a stone before Christmas. In the last 3 weeks I have lost 1lb.
I am doing ok with the eating (except weekends). But finding it hard to get into exercise that's not pilates (only just recovered from a back injury that has laid me pretty low for 2 yrs).

Off to dig out my leggings and trainer socks...
