Thank you :smiley:

What would be a good way of finding out what sort of calorie level I need to be eating at?

Add me too :D

Think it's more a psychological craving than a physical craving? My body doesn't feel like I need carbs but when I feel low I just wanna sod it all off and eat pizza. Might it be worth planning in maybe a cheat every so often so I can make it worth it and mentally satisfying rather then a fail every week or two and feeling…

Recently, our PT keeps changing around our training to try different methods, but predominantly HIT, high weights low reps, but he's not been very stable with this which is frustrating so I'm currently not sure of my progress strength wise either! 170cm/ around 62.5kg (seems to fluctuate between 61.7-63.7) unsure on…

I know I definitely have gained muscle since I started training, I can see it, but I wonder if I'm monitoring my weight too closely? Tend to weigh myself daily. I haven't been doing keto eating for very long, couple months? And had a few slip ups, so maybe I've not really entered ketosis properly? But I'm not massively…

Frustrating bit is my PT cancelled our session yesterday as was ill and I was really looking forward to it, because I centre my week around the two sessions I have weight training, then my friend couldnt do tonight so this week its only one which is tomorrow :( I spend all week looking forward to my session but cant afford…

I guess its hard because I'm usually fairly militant about it, until I feel a bit low which makes me crave junk food as a quick endorphin reward!

I'm just taking the pressure off myself until January with the next month containing not only Christmas but mine and my dads birthdays too, there's gonna be a lot if cake and I can't afford the gym either until iys all paid for etc :') trying to eat healthier but not really trying to achieve anything huge between now and…

thank you for the personal input, thats all I wanted :) x

Its all so difficult xD and confusing! Mainly confusing

I'll just quote it down from the top of the page so others can see. Constructive tips welcome.

Indeed I have, but prefer the ones that enable original post editing so that people can actually see immediately that I get that they don't work xD

If people would like to refrain from the judgey, sarky comments you will realise that I have got a brain and have already taken my feedback from that perspective, thank you ;)

Thank you for the links :) I'm in the UK

what does everyone eat instead? Probably wont be able to cut out entirely because financially they are some of the cheapest meals for our family but breakfast/lunch time might be able to cut out :)

Right got it, don't work xD Anyone got any tips that help them? (thanks for those above ^ :) )

But whats a good way to up natural fibres?

I'm not really looking at the scales to be honest, thats more of a rough estimate! I'm going by visible change (its a belly thing that I don't like) I've upped my exercise, tried dropping my calories to 1330 but even on the scales nothings shifted at all. Visibly nothing either in 4 weeks. Hence why I was looking at…

No I was jokingly trying to say, dont jump on me I'm not a juiceplus advocate (there's been an upsurge lately) xD

Nope its not, its called Carb Blocker on myprotein.com, its white kidney bean extract.

They're intended to inhibit amylase, the enzymes that break down starch, which makes it less digestible and passes through the digestive system without being absorbed, thus cutting back a couple of calories. Thats the theory behind it anyway. Its not miracle pill or a get slim fast but I only want to lose 4/5lbs in total…

No just someone who's actually tried them because I don't believe the website reviews are from real people.

But has anyone actually got any experience rather than just opinions? That's why I didn't go off the website reviews because the positive experiences could easily be faked. If someone who’s tried them could say what their findings were that would be better than speculation from anyone surely? The must have some effect in…

Obviously in combination with diet and exercise not instead of

I bloat quite badly from carbs and I've got a spa trip in 2 weeks so if I can avoid looking like a beachball yet still eat what I enjoy (it's for my birthday) hopefully I wouldnt feel too self conscious! Apparently they do aid weight loss too

Cake sale today at work... DAMMIT! :')

You can do it! :) Determination will get you there!

These are amazing :') I feel so much better! I think I insecurity-eat, when I feel insecure at work especially I eat to give myself a mental boost. I now have a little soft toy keyring to hold to distract and comfort myself. Sad I know but better than just eating everything in the world!

Great comments! Its the snacks that get me now I have a desk job! People bringing in cakes and chocolate and all dreadfully unhealthy goodies! I'm struggling because I only want to lose a couple of pounds to look trimmer and they're so hard to get off! Don't think anythings shifted after 3-4 weeks :( starting to feel all…
