  • Pre kids I used to have a perfectly flat stomach, especially in my late teens and early 20s. My first child resulted in an emergency section and the second was a chosen section. I'm left with a small shelf where the incision was as well as loose skin even though both children were small (4lbs 10 and 6lbs 05) I don't have…
  • I have put in my statistics to the app but I don't know what activity level to choose. I want to include my exercise in my calorie goal because I'm so consistent, logging it separately just makes it harder really. I'm trying to lose but if I know my maintenance then I can choose how much less to eat. Currently I'm aiming…

  • I started at 10st 4lbs last April and am now 7st 12lbs which I hit late last year. Other than having to buy smaller clothes I haven't noticed a difference at all. I think I was in the 9st range when I bought smaller clothes then smaller still when I got to the high 8st range and smaller again at the lower 8st range.
  • I work part time doing bar/restaurant/functions and I find my issue is that I'm starving. I eat before work around 5-5.30pm but by the time 9pm comes round I'm so hungry and sometimes my snacks just don't cut it so I'll eat something else. Doesn't help that I have no willpower so if there is nice food leftover I'm so…
  • Height 5"1 Weight 107.4lbs Upper thigh around 20.5in Calfs-12cm BF % is somewhere around 26% My lower half is the bane of my life and I can not shift the fat no matter what I do. My hips are huge and flabby as is my bum so I'm just destined to look terrible. Come September I'll be doing 90 minutes walking minutes walking a…

  • I'm a pear shape too and like you find it frustrating, my lower half just seems so much bigger! I'm 5'1 and weigh something like 108lbs yet my thighs still rub together and I still get muffin top. Mind you even my top half leaves a lot to be desired, not to mention my c section pouch.
  • Phew, that's a relief, life would be awful without indulging on things! I am looking into recomp but I'm having to change gyms so for the next few weeks will be doing classes like body pump, body combat and HIIT alongside cardio and weights whilst I get my bearings. As for the cellulite dehydration can play a part so I'm…
  • Ok I haven't, can't get it to work!
  • I'm hoping I've uploaded a picture of my legs in the shortest pair of shorts I own. I'm not intending to wear anything this short out in public anyway so perhaps a different pair will hide some flaws..
  • I'm 5"1 and as of today 113.5lbs but body fat of 28%. My short term goal is 107lbs and 25% fat (by June) and by the end of the year I want to be 100lbs with less than 25% body fat. I started this time last year at 144lbs with body fat over 30% and got to 110lbs just before Christmas but then put some on following a binge.…

  • Thanks for that, I'll have a look tonight and see what I can find.
  • That's not a bad idea, I did up it to 1400 at one point but then down to 1250 so I might try 1600, still 200 under maintenance but gives me a bit extra. I am going to look at the weight lifting programmes the other poster suggested and see what I can find that suits me. My overall fitness has improved, my diet is much…
