Can anyone put this into plain English for me?
this is my current (only started this week) plan

Approx 1200-1300 calories per day usually burn around 300 cals per day at the gym (of an afternoon)
20 mins on the treadmill uphill
10 mins on the bikes
20- 30mins in weights

    It's not a magic potion.


    However, I do think they have their place - when for some reason, you cannot physically eat something Solid, for example because of nausea due to meds, dental work, when for whatever reason, the alternative would be nothing at all.

    The rest of the time, their place is in the bin.
