HI everyone
I'm starting my cc journey today. Previously I have lost almost 5 stone with slimming world and gained 3 back. Then lost it again with TFR then gained it back. So now I'm looking for something more permanent and less of a fad. I want to learn about healthy eating and exercise and loose the weight permanently.
I'm getting married in march and I am desperate to loose 3.5st by then. This averages at 1.75lbs a week! So it could be doable!
I'm using mfp and my calories are set to 1200. I'm going to start exercising and using my polar hrm to monitor an accurate burn. But I'm unsure of whether to eat these cals back?
Today I've eaten 1297cals and burnt 890 for 1 hour of Zumba (this is mfp estimation which I'm sure is too high - my hrm isn't here yet!).
Any advice/tips/friendly hello would be much appreciated!!!
Xx
