Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Glad you had a good swim, TTTTT :)
We've dog walked and I'll be resistance training soon then running this afternoon. A measly 0.3kg off this week despite me being angelic in following the food and exercise plan. I continue to trust the process and to focus on the process, not the weight on the scales.

Been reading about Garmin's "stress" and HRV

and it seems from my reading off the Garmin site and surrounded research that my suspicions could be true i.e. that when I have snack attacks or drink alcohol I am negatively impacting my RHR HRV and stress levels and therefore sleep and recovery

I was thinking imagine someone carrying that as weight day in day out...really scary thought.Wow 35lbs as I work in pounds is a lot.

I have a 10k weighted vest and that is hard work to work with but not used in ages,

Just shows us how much better for our health and joints to lose weight.

yep
I've gained over Christmas - well actually worse since new year?!
Today has been my "last day" of work crap and I have mentally gone "last chance can't eat next week so must eat EVERYTHING"
but by the end of the weekend there will be no more readily available crap (still tones of it!) so fresh start next week
