No particular reason why, it's just I have to rock back and forth in order to get my legs up there. When I am in Pilates we do this exercise with a large yoga ball between the ankles/calves, so I do not have enough momentum swinging the ball to get my lower back half off the floor. Are there any particular exercises that…

SW: 178 CW: 166.6 Goal 1: 145(ish) by Mid-June Ultimate goal: ? Genuinely do not know. I haven't ever been 'skinny', hence my first goal of 145 is the lowest weight I have been in my adult life, and the approximate weight I was when I met my fiancé. I will just continue to lose until I am happy with the way my body looks.…

I went over my calories yesterday by about 600, but I had already pretty much had that saved up from the rest of the week. I savoured every mouthful of those sinful calories ;)

I do every morning after using the bathroom. I then log it into Libra. At the weekends, as I work out in the morning, I tend to hop back on the scale after the gym just for the pure vanity of knowing the scale will go down a bit more! I don't record that though, since it's just water weight as it's lost sweat.

I'm getting married in August too! I have lost 10 pounds in the past 8 weeks and have about 23-28 more to go. I'm aiming to be around 140-145 by mid June. Even if I lose at a pound a week I'm happy, which will put me a further 14 pounds down. I'm in it for the long haul after all!

I love my Charge HR! I get such a kick out of seeing how my heart rate rose during workouts and it's a massive motivation to achieve my goals. The app is excellent as well. I genuinely forgot to put my Fitbit on before work (it was on a quick charge while drying my hair) and throughout the whole day I was just gutted that…

I work out 6 days a week, which is 12 gym classes. Some days I double class. Saturday I triple. This Wednesday, I felt a bit tired and needed a rest so I didn't go to class that day. As long as you are feeling strong and not slowly depleting yourself then keep it up! Our bodies are amazing things and can be pushed to the…

Don't worry, you are only week 2! If you just amped up your workouts, you'll probably find that increased water retention is masking any weight loss. This happened to me when I went from jogging/walking (C25k) for 30 minutes 2/3 times a week to going to the gym 5-6 days a week for a variety of classes, and doubling up on 4…

This kind of works for me. Immediately after I'm not hungry at all, but about an hour or so later I would be peckish. If I only had a snack though it would satisfy me. I get hungry, but not massively to the point I want to eat the fridge.

I still rolled out of bed and went to the gym this morning even though I thought I would be late for Yoga. Not only did I make it, but I also went to a second class straight after which kicked my *kitten*! I sweated a ton but I did it! My fitbit lit up with that calorie burn! If I had stayed at home I would have massively…

I fit into a pair of jeans I bought TWO years ago but never actually fit in. Kept them as I thought I would slim into them- finally started that journey Mid-january and I have finally accomplished it! Just need to lose another inch around my chest/rib cage area and I'll be able to fit into a gorgeous floral dress I…

I'm 5'3, and while having a smaller calorie goal sucks (mine is 1200... Purely because it can't go lower!) I'm making it work. If anything, I play it like a game. Even fit in a Mcdonalds- i went for the 20 chicken nuggets instead of a meal which was less calories but still filled me up. Left a bit of wiggle room for a…
