    Thank you & apologies for the late response!

    I work out 4/5 times a week.
    Pilates 2 x a week for 1 hour, plus 2/3 home workouts which are 20 mins treadmill / 30 mins weights / 20 mins treadmill. For weights I just do my own thing, based on different trainers I have worked with, using 10-20lbs weights, depending on the exercise.
    Using weights definitely makes a huge difference, but you have to have good form & work up to it to prevent injury.

    I also eat low carb (around 20-30g a day), moderate protein & high fat. My diary is open if you want to peek, but a typical day is something like:

    Breakfast: 3 egg scramble, Cream Cheese Pancake
    Lunch: Egg Wraps with Tuna Mayo
    Dinner: Chicken, Fish or Beef with 2 green veg & mushrooms
    Snacks: Nuts, seeds, cheese, deli meat, etc.

    I normally average 1700 cals.

    Hope this helps, but feel free to ask me anything (you can always message me or friend me :smile: )

    Thank you. That's really helpful. I will send a friend request ☺️
