Hi there. To cut a long story short I lost my weight for the second time slowly compared with the first time. I then met my now husband and the weight slowly crept back on. I have since tried to lose it and keep hitting walls. Any ideas to try and shake things up? Thanks guy.

    I just started doing the spike thing this week - basically eat at your BMR, then 500 less (or 1200min) for six days, and pig out at double your bmr on the seventh...Will see if it works....
    there's a Spike 84 group on here...

    1. Create an appropriate caloric deficit/set caloric intake appropriately
    2. Set protein intake
    3. Set dietary fat intake
    4. Everything else depends..

    It's all about calories in versus calories out. Plain and simple.
