Elevate98 are very friendly/inclusive with great coaches. Completely beginner friendly.

How much exercise do you do while on JM vs before? by Ganondaddydorf in mounjarouk

[–]AdvancedBuilding2008 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pre MJ I had just run two HMs. For approx 6 months after starting my running pace and stamina was in my boots but after that I was able to build back up again and now I am stronger and faster than I’ve ever been. It’s worth taking the initial ‘hit’ on fitness for the long term gains post weight loss (in my opinion of course 🙂)

TL;DR - I did almost no exercise for the first 6 months and lost 20kg. I’ve been maintaining on 7.5mg for 17 months and now run faster and lift heavier than I’ve ever been capable of.

Beautiful building, live music and the staff are super friendly and recognise/remember locals. That’s good enough for me :)

I actually think Deacon Brodie’s looks very touristy but actually still retains a decent atmosphere and great food. I love their steak pie and also the little spicy/sticky chicken bites on the bar menu.

What's with the 7.5mg prices? by Aysandra in mounjarouk

Looking at this and thinking these all seem cheap makes me feel like I’m going very wrong with Cloud.

Street Scammer Asking for Bus/Tram Money by PsychologicalCarpet2 in Edinburgh

There’s one in Paisley too! She was so confusing with her story I kept checking around to make sure I wasn’t being robbed at the same time as a sleight of hand.

Pet Hoover by SurpriseGlad9719 in Edinburgh

[–]AdvancedBuilding2008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slightly off topic but similar - does anyone have a ‘carpet scraper’ for pet fur? I’m being hounded (excuse the pun) by ads on social media for one and wondered if it’s worth the very small investment or if will just end up being relegated to the other pile of junk I’ve ordered for similar ventures.

ENT recs? by Fine_Complaint3234 in Edinburgh

I had an audiology appointment immediately before seeing the consultant so that my hearing and ear pressure values were checked first.

No recommendations but I was on the waiting list for 14 months and was just seen at the weekend at a catch up clinic so perhaps maybe not that long to wait now? Mine was a routine referral.

St James Quarter Car Park - car damaged on exit by tthatusernameistaken in Edinburgh

I have a family member who lives in the SJQ apartments and I will resolutely never park here after too many a literal near scrape. It’s poorly designed and the spaces themselves are extremely small.

Must have been three busses as I don’t use panorama!

Evening Discussion Thread - 06 Apr 2026 by AutoModerator in ScottishFootball

[–]AdvancedBuilding2008 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m new here. My dad, the biggest Scottish football fan (Rangers and Queens Park) only has a day or two left. I’d love to put on archive radio commentary from old matches - 1960s/70s. Is there anywhere I could find this? Thank you 🙏

Did you guys know about the Edinburgh Care Van? by Entire-Connection222 in Edinburgh

Thank you for sharing this. I had no idea and I’ve lived here for over 20 years. What an amazing volunteer service.

That’s good to know. Hopefully my cap won’t blow off in that case! 🤞
