  • I have this issue too! Really annoying!

  • Pulses are great to throw into a curry or stew. Lentil pasta is a great swap for wheat pasta, tastes very similar but much higher in protein! Quinoa is a great protein rich accompaniment to meals instead of rice/couscous. A soy based sausage sandwich is also pretty high in protein. You can get lots of vegan protein shakes…
  • There is a really good book called 'how not to die' and it is all plant based and oil free. If you google you can probably fond some of the receipes for free!
  • Weight 153lb clothes size 10-12 UK size.
  • I've been looking into this recently too, I usually use myprotein vegan blend in smooth chocolate but I've been trying some meal replacement shakes from purition, their vegan strawberry is beautiful. I'm going to try the new slim fast vitality vegan chocolate mint next week and want to try huel as well!
  • Have you heard of huel? It is a complete meal replacement designed so that you could drink it every day and not become deficient. I use it to replace lunches as I get no time to eat at work!
  • Ordered the book now. Don't think I will go 100% liquid but maybe 2 out of three meals! I'm looking to loose 30lb I did loose it in 2014 but I put it back on :-( I have been veggie since age 9 (now 33) and I am vegan for January but I have been vegan now and again in the past. I think one of the reasons I put on weight was…
  • Interested in buying the book, I wasn't interested in juicing as I don't have a juicer but I believe you can do this with just a nutribullet?
  • I lost ten pounds after having all four of mine out but it all came back on when I started eating solids again. I couldn't eat properly for a week and felt nauseous because my mouth tasted like blood all the time! All I could stomach was cream of tomato soup and fromage frais yogurts. Anything with any bits in at all would…
  • Jealous! I did a kettle bell workout for the first time two days ago and I can't walk down stairs and am in so much pain! I feel like a feeble old lady. Any one got any recommendations for a workout I can do to help me? I read light cardio but my legs and my arms are useless I can't run, only shuffle! Maybe Pilates or…
  • Myprotein.com makes a nice vegan blend protein powder. The chocolate one is great with peanut butter, banana and almond milk!
  • I watched the programme and didn't really know what to think. It seemed like the programme was very negative about clean eating from the outset. Nothing what they said was a surprise or a 'secret' Everybody knows that people on the internet talk rubbish and it has long been common knowledge that nutritionist is a…
  • Smoothies are great, I just had spinach, kale, half a banana, some frozen pineapple and 0 fat Greek yogurt Overnight oats are awesome. At the moment I am loving chocolate chia pudding which is just chia, cacoa powder, 2 dates and almond milk.
  • http://m.disclose.tv/action/viewvideo/110651/BBC_Horizon_2012_Eat_Fast_and_Live_Longer/ This BBC documentary about the 5 2 diet and the science behind it is a good place to start!
  • Minimalist baker website has some amazing recipes. I'm veggie but try and limit dairy and eggs as much as I can and regularly make stuff from there!

  • Thanks for all the replies! I'm not giving up just yet, going to at least see out the week as I haven't experienced all the workouts yet! I didn't mind cardio and found speed pretty easy, it's just total body workout that I disliked! Which I thought would be the one I like best as I love boot camps or circuit training at…
  • Yep I kept the zip I my bra!!
  • I recommend the zip! I was going to buy a more expensive one but then I realised the zip did all I needed it too, it records distance walked, steps taken and calories burned and syncs with the app. The battery lasts for months as well. Unlike some other fit bits it has a screen so you can check your progress on the device…
  • I would recommend buying a beginners weight set with 2 dumbells that you can adjust the masses on. These will be really useful for lots of different exercises. Buy some decent trainers and work out clothes you would actually want to wear to help boost your confidence. If you are female a decent sports bra is v. Important.…
  • I have ordered t25 and am starting on Monday, I am nervous as I have never spent so much on a workout DVD set before! Hoping I stick with it and lose a stone for summer then use that to lead into a long term healthier lifestyle. I have cleaned up my diet in preparation, I'm not counting calories but eating wholefoods,…
