in Health and Weight Loss
Hi
I was hoping some of you might have some suggestions/advice.
I am getting married later this year and currently a size 14. I would like to lose 2 stone for my wedding (2.5 months away) and ideally a stone by my hen do at the end of Oct.
Now i was doing well, losing 9ibs in a month but for the last month I have been unwell and am unable to exercise due to the pain I have in my stomach.
I dont have much spare cash to spend on things like slimming world, herbalife etc but I am desperate to lose weight.
Any advice suggestions would be appreciated smileThank you
xxxxsmile

    Perhaps a visit to the doctors to find out the cause of the pain?

    You don't need to anything except be in a caloric deficit to lose weight. Still, I would go to the doctor and see what's up with your stomach first.

    All of this. Get a food scale, log every day, and set a calorie goal. Adjust as necessary.

    But you should definitely go to the doctor for the stomach pains. And if you want, open your food diary so we can provide suggestions.

    My advice would be, log your current eating in mfp to see what calories your 'truthfully' eating. Make a list of what you eat at meal times. Healthy eating isn't just about salad & broccoli.
    Make your main meals using lean meats/fish/eggs etc add some veggies then some carbs/pasta/potatoes.
    Think of the following weights when cooking: 100-150g lean protein, 150g of rice/pasta/potato then the same of veg/salad per meal/per person. These would come out at about 500calories. I just had some.
    I can't run but walk for 1 hour every other day. Mfp calorie allowance already give a deficit for weight loss. Its says all through this site cals in v cals out. I lost 3lb in 2 weeks. Good luck.
