    Lindsay's progress

    Same here. As tempting as a vlcd is I just don't see how it's healthy and long lasting. I know eating 1200 cals isn't sustainable but at least I'm getting a varied and balanced diet. It's deffo getting me into better eating habits as I become more aware of the cals in things. And I think that...

    Lindsay's progress

    Yeah that's where it went south last time. I went on a weeks holiday and I put a fair bit of it back on. I'm thinking after I've lost the 5 kg I put on at xmas I'm going to increase my calorie intake and try and exercise every day. I'm sure I've read somewhere that having a greater muscle mass...

    I lost a lot doing 1200 cals a day and in a fairly short time. But I was also doing interval training and weights as often as I could. Usually about 3 times a week. I'm back on 1200 a day now, although I've gone about 1000 over this week. I'm going to start at the gym again on Sunday. So fingers...

    Advise on eating out at pubs.

    My advice is to join a calorie counting site/app like myfitnesspal. It's free. There are a lot of meals included on their data base like the ones you listed. If not you can add it, most pubs list cals anyway. You can also put in what kind of job you have, active, very active etc. And then how...

    Why are you losing weight?

    A few reasons really. I started when I came back from Kenya, i lost a lot out there mainly from forgetting to eat and eating considerably less. I continued eating carefully and exercising lots and it was great. My dad had a heart transplant though 11 weeks ago and I comfort ate but now I feel...

    Fell off the wagon today, I feel poo

    This is going to sound really pathetic but I feel crap. I was all set to my 1200 calories for today and then I had a slice of cake and a mini Toblerone. Now I'm way over and it's too late to go now for a run or anything. And I'm just sat here feeling like I've let myself down. Do you think I'll...

    Day on Day off - would it work?

    Hello there, I'm considering kick starting my weight loss by doing a month on Exante. Just wondered if it would work if I did it one day on, one day off, with my off days containing 1200 cals. I'm not keen on the prospect of being shattered, I'm very grouchy when tired, and thought it...

    Determined to do it this time!

    Hi there, I'm new too. My dad had a heart transplant 10 and a half weeks ago, and I had to move home from Uni. Double whamey, comfort eating, and Mum's delicious but fatty home cooked grub. I need to start looking after the ole ticker like yourself, and it seems like this place is a good way to...

    4 stone to lose... too much?

    Hi there, I'm new on this thing, I needed a place to find help and support. Don't really feel like I get it at home. Firstly I'll let you know some basics about me, I'm 23, the best weight I've been was when I was 16, and I had a "Normal" BMI. Although then it wasn't good enough, as I was...
